The thing that annoys me the most about the Gulf War Syndrome fraud is that the participants are the ones who keep promoting the idea that the US government supplied Iraq with WMD. The reason is obvious, they want to establish a way to get money from Uncle Sugar.

Thanks for that Neocon, it was quite interesting.

I don't want to go into the debate (since I have not read up enough on the issue yet) but it seems from the Q & A session you posted that depleted Uranium is not as innocent a substance as some posts here suggested:

Depleted uranium is well known to be toxic to the kidneys. Studies in industrial groups have shown this very clearly. And there may yet be some cases of chronic kidney disease develop among those vets who've come back with uranium particles in their bodies. It's a chronic disease, sometimes takes many years to evolve.
