BC, what you copy-pasta'd was a UN resolution, i.e. a meaningless non-binding piece of paper.

Even then, the wording of the following statement doesn't directly classify depleted uranium as a "weapon of mass destruction":
Urges all States to be guided in their national policies by the need to curb the production and the spread of weapons of mass destruction or with indiscriminate effect, in particular nuclear weapons, chemical weapons, fuel-air bombs, napalm, cluster bombs, biological weaponry and weaponry containing depleted uranium
It does include DU as a weapon that may have an "indiscriminate effect," but nowhere in that resolution does it make any definitive link. All it does is call for "guidance" and care in their production and usage.

That's really weak when it comes to making the leap in logic from "depleted uranium" to "war atrocities in Fallujah."
