I still can't believe they intentionally expose people to this stuff.

"Depleted uranium (DU) has been found in the urine of Gulf War vets as long as 20 years after exposure. A highly sensitive test has been developed which can detect DU even when previous screening has proven negative. This test may assist with unresolved health claims.
We are all exposed to minuscule amounts of uranium every day. But it would take over five tons of rock and soil to come up with a teaspoon of the isotopic proportions of natural uranium. In contrast, the DU used by the military is "depleted" by only one percent of the total uranium. It remains highly concentrated.
Any form of uranium becomes exceedingly dangerous when burned, which is exactly what happens when DU is used in weapons systems. The tiny particles are aerosolized and can be inhaled into the lungs. These soluble DU compounds then enter the bloodstream and from there reach bones and organs. This DU can remain, literally radiating the body from within, for years. In the past, exposed individuals were often not checked for inhaled DU or were not tested with equipment that could differentiate the isotopes 235 and 236 characteristic of DU."

Progress is not made by everyone joining some new fad,
and reveling in it's loyalty. It's made by forming coalitions
over specific principles, goals, and policies.

That's what freaks me out. The overall lack of appreciation for human life.
Some pretty scary people up there making decisions.
I'm beginning to think they really don't care which country is which, as long as they get their piece.
