DEPLETED URANIUM

Dr. Sennett,

Democracy NOW! had a long and comprehensive segment on DU today:

********
DU is a like the crazy aunt in the attic for the Pentagon. They really don't want the truth to get out on this major league war crime.

Stunning disability rates of U.S. wars:

WAR % Vets Disabed Causes, Likely Causes

WW II 5.6% PTSD(1)
Korea 6.0% PTSD
Vietnam 9.6% PTSD, Agent Orange,
Gulf War I 39.0% DU, Inoculant Reactions,
Chemical Agents



As we can see, there has been a shocking increase in post-conflict disability among the veterans of military conflict. This is the 800 pound gorilla that the Pentagon wants to keep hidden in the closet.

(1) PSTD = Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, aka Shell Shock.
