The Ultimate Iraq Casulties..Our Troops Are the Walking Dead.Bush-Cheney have used tons of weapons made of 'depleted uranium' from toxic nuclear waste. The United Nations has classified them as illegal weapons of mass destruction and are forbidden by international laws and treaties. Any soldier now in Iraq who has not inhaled lethal radioactive dust is not breathing. Once inhaled, uranium oxides lodge in the body and emit radiation indefinitely. One particle in a lymph node can devastate the entire immune system according to radiation expert Roger Coghill. Gulf War II veterans will slowly and painfully succumb to radiation poisoning. They are destined to a long downhill spiral of chronic illness and disability. They face kidney failure, lung damage, bloody stools, extreme fatigue, joint pain, unsteady gait, dementia and skin rashes and, ultimately, cancer and premature death. Furthermore, many of their babies will be afflicted. Radiation expert Dr. Helen Caldicott confirms that the dust-laden winds of war zones impacted with depleted uranium pollution will remain effectively radioactive for the rest of time. Also contaminated are underground water supplies in drought-stricken Afghanistan causing its people to have the highest urine uranium levels ever recorded. After almost a third of his decontamination team dropped dead, Dr. Doug Rokke, Army health physicist, confirmed that the Pentagon lies about DU dangers and is criminally negligent for shirking needed medical attention. He predicts that the numbers of Gulf War II American troops sickened by DU will be staggering.
