Can anyone say "uranium munitions"? Does anyone believe it just coincidence that Fallujah was attacked with these in 2004?

The ICRP (International Committee On Radiological Protection) approach and the "hormesis approach"....treat radiation as if it were homogeneous. That's like regarding all poisons as if they were of equal toxicity, weight for weight.

( "hormesus approach" refers to: Radiation hormesis (also called radiation homeostasis) is the hypothesis that chronic low doses of ionizing radiation (in addition to the natural background doses) are beneficial, stimulating hypothetical reserve repair mechanisms that protect against disease, but are not activated in absence of additional ionizing radiation. The reserve repair mechanisms are hypothesized to be sufficiently effective when stimulated as to not only cancel the detrimental effects of extra ionizing radiation but also protect from other damage.)

"There are sound radiobiological mechanisms supporting this idea and a huge amount of evidence that this supra-linear dose:response is real. Much of the evidence is post-Chernobyl, which ICRP (International Committee On Radiological Protection) entirely ignores in formulating its advice."

They often wore only army-regulation shorts and T-shirts to protect them from atomic explosions, and were stationed dangerously close to mushroom clouds or hosed-down contaminated equipment wearing just swimming trunks. The soldiers and civilians who worked on France's notorious nuclear tests in the Sahara desert and south Pacific have long fought for compensation for the cancer and long-term health effects they blame on the state's failure to protect them.

. . From 1959 to 1963 and 1964, after the Rongelapese had returned to Rongelap from Majuro, many women gave birth prematurely to babies which looked somewhat like animals. Women also had miscarriages. During these years many other strange things happened with regard to food, especially to fish in which the fertilized eggs and liver turned a blackish color. In all my forty years I had never seen this happen in fish either on Rongelap or in any of the other places I've been in the Marshall Islands. Also, when people ate fish or [arrowroot] starch produced on Rongelap, they developed a rash in their mouths. This too I had never seen before.

Populations Exposed to Environmental Uranium by Leuren Moret

Of the 551 Kiwi veterans involved in Operation Grapple (the code name for nine British tests carried out in the Pacific between 1957 and 1958), more than 400 are dead, mainly from cancer. Mr Sefton, who was 17 when he served in Operation Grapple, said it was criminal that governments had been able to ignore the suffering of veterans and their children for so long.

EARTHWORMS WERE pushed into the firing line last week after a resumption of
the testing of depleted uranium shells at Dundrennan.
Significant levels of radioactive uranium isotopes were found in the flesh
of worms at the Ministry of Defence's Dumfries weapons range last year.
Despite concerns from environmentalists and the international community, the
MoD last week started a series of tests of depleted uranium (DU) shells,
supposed "safety checks".
A report published in the Journal of Environmental Monitoring found that
worms in the Dumfries testing ground had significant traces of poisonous
uranium isotopes in their bodies.

PSYCHOPATHOCRACY.
[seye ko pa THOK ra see]

Rule by madmen.

This word delineates a regime that uses depleted uranium and other weapons of mass destruction promiscuously, and that gives these weapons to its allies to use as well,
a regime that believes that ANY form of torture is legitimate, and so incarcerates and tortures the innocent and children, even after condemning them to a slow death by radiation poisoning.

There’s a ton of data about this on the Internet for the skeptics: from sources such as the 1999 report of the International Atomic Energy Commission to oncologist members of England’s Royal Society of Physicians to VA hospital nuclear medicine doctors to officials at the Basra maternity and pediatric hospital to reporter Scott Peterson of the Christian Science Monitor. Peterson used a Geiger counter in August, 2003 to find radiation readings between 1,000 and 1,900 times normal where bunker buster bombs and munitions had exploded near Baghdad. After all, a typical bunker bomb is said to contain more than a ton of depleted uranium.
