I have household ants that could use that.

Well, at least now we know for sure there are WMDs in Iraq:

Weapons of M*** Depletion.

Meanwhile those worried about DU should not listen to AM or FM. After all, such sounds are generated by a device that is radio-active.

Siriusly.

How big are those ants?

Oh, that's right, I just remembered how big that Space Cow was in FMITM. If a caterpillar gets that big, imagine the ants. Yup, you'd need the gatling gun on an A-10.

Actually I was just thinking of implacements, bunkers and troop concentrations, but giant ants would be a fair target as well. Not to mention those Gawdawful sunspiders (solpugids) they have over there.

I agree, most doctors recommend a checkup after you may have been exposed to hazardous materials. It really is best after exposure to DU and before exposure to WPH. Because it's hard to make an appointment when you're on fire.

Bigger after the Uranium Treatment...

Hah. Well, you "scientists" just keep laughing, then. Meanwhile try telling Godzilla and the poor people in Tokyo that uranium doesn't have catastrophic consequences.

I dare you to call Godzilla "unhealthy." Except to terrified locals and other Kaiju, of course.

Here's another good one.

It doesn't start talking about DU until the 48 minute mark.

David, how about you address some of the points people have made in this thread instead of posting another link?

It's becoming clear that David C prefers to post links, rather than taking the effort to summerize the information and provide his own views.

Let us know when you wish to talk, okay David C?

EDIT:

Just watched it. Saw little resemblence to real life, as discussed by the others that have real experience have told here.

Are you even reading what they're saying David C? Or are you just making claim after claim, posting link after link?

I think you're just whistling in the dark Grand Lunar. I don't believe David C reads many of these replies.

Yep, I watched a bit of it. The name of the thing is "Iraq Nuked." Nice, unbiased title. And it looked pretty biased too. But I skipped ahead to 48 minutes where they started talking about reports of gulf war sickness. Then they mention the use of "uranium waste" for weapons, with the note that it contains traces of plutonium. Of course, that's true, all uranium contains traces of plutonium. It just isn't very much. From here:

Because plutonium occurs in nature in only minute amounts, it must be considered for all practical purposes a man-made element. (Some pitchblende ores, once a main source of uranium and radium, contain one part per trillion natural plutonium.)

Which means that you will occasionally run into a plutonium atom naturally, since you will run into a bit of uranium naturally.

They also say that the "debris will remain radioactive for about 4.5 billion years." Of course, that's wrong. That is just the half life. Take 2 pounds of U238 and in (roughly) 4.5 billion years you will have 1 pound of U238 and debris products. What they don't tell you is that DU has only 60% of the already low radioactivity of natural uranium and that a long half life is a good thing because, after all, it means low activity.

Then a guy comes on and talks about uranium in the body. And, as already stated, if you ingest substantial amounts of uranium, but also lead and other heavy metals, it isn't a good thing. What you would have to do is show (with good evidence) where large numbers of people would have ingested or breathed in much larger amounts of uranium than people do from other known sources (such as coal power plants). I didn't see this.

I gave up after a bit after listening to material intended to scare, but not actually informative.

Anyway, David C, please let me know when you can respond to the points made here, with evidence:

Depleted uranium

If you have another video, please point out first where it addresses these points.

I'm just a layman so all I can do is look at everything and try to make sense of it all. This guy Dr. Doug Rokke has some good credentials and if the statistics he gives are correct, there is something to what he says.

I suppose that's true but are you sure they are not reliable? You seem to have a pretty cavalier attitude about this. If the statistics are true, this is a pretty serious situation. Even if they have swithced to tungsten, there's a lot of DU already out there.

I post links mainly for the viewers.

I found a lot of good links by reading other people's posts so I post what I find.

What part of what she says do you think is wrong?

According to the documentaries, it's dangerous when it's inhaled. Also, it said that the symptoms don't appear for a while.

According to Leuren Moret it has increased worldwide. She said that there was an increase in cancer in states downwind from the Nevada nuclear test sites.

According to those documentaries, Baghdad didn't get a "Trivial" amount of uranium.

According to the documentaries, that isn't the case.

As I've said before, I'm not in a position to verify anything. I just think that if what the people in those documentaries say reflects reality, we've got a pretty serious situation here and I haven't seen any reason to blow them off.

Here are some more videos.

David C, you're still not getting it. Do some research, state a position, or hell, even a real question, cite your sources, if one of them is a video, then so be it. But have some kind of position, or question, and stop seagull posting. You're simply posting hours of videos from woo-woos and asking the forum to debunk them en masse. That is really poor form.

If you can narrow the hours of video down to a real question, or a position, elaborate, and then give relevant cites to your question or position. If you post hours and hours of videos, include time markers for specific points you wish to have examined. Try to do some at least minimal research of the facts as you understand them, and present them with your hypothesis. It's perfectly valid to say "I don't know if this is true, but this is how it seems to me. Can you help me?" at the end of stating the above, but you have to quit the seagull posting

You're probably right.

But still, doesn't hurt to try, yes?

Incidently, I can't whistle.

I wouldn't call those videoes "documentries", David C.
We're not making this stuff up about DU. It's things that have been learned from science, data that's been accumilated over decades of research. That's what we're giving you.
What those videos are giving is sensationalist, unresearched dogma, like the moon hoax videos, or Loose Change.

Instead of believing every conspiracy and anti-US "documentry" you see, do research into the subject matters. Go to a library, use Google or some other search engine. You see, you are in a position to verify their claims; by doing research. Then you'll be in a position to make an informed judgement.
Whatever questions you have after that, you can come to us with them, if you so desire.

Please, consider that.
