The news feature does not give justification for the conclusions reached, but then it is the typical tv news clip out to sell a view more than inform with details.

Uranium is a very dense metal, so depleted uranium can be used to reinforce the armour-plating on tanks. It can also be put on the tips of bullets, mortar rounds and tank shells, to penetrate conventional tank armour. Depleted uranium shells sharpen on impact, which further increases their ability to bore through armour, and they ignite after contact. Where have depleted uranium weapons been used? The UK Ministry of Defence (MoD) says depleted uranium missiles were developed by the US and UK in the 1970s. They were first used in the Gulf War in 1991, and then in Kosovo in 1999, and during the Iraq War in 2003." source BBC News Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During the Iraq war the Iragi tankers found they had to bury their tanks and themselves in the sands in order to try to avoid detection from the USA detection equipment. They could not turn on any heat, nor ventilation else they become detected. Could the crews sitting in those tanks without ventilation become so affected by the low level of radiation from the depleted uranium armorof their own tank and their own ammunition that they became defective and cannot conceive a normal offspring today?

Haven't a personal clue except from what I am just now reading up on; however I do remember the plight of the Iragi tank crews being pinned down under the sands in their tanks. The USA having abilty to find them from any heat "signature" The result of wars are just awful. The current one getting the most attention, UKraine-Russia, is going to cause far more damage to the world in it's entirety than has ever happened before, is my own guess. Food fuel shipping and air quality around the world is about to be severely damaged. The mad men play their game, never learning, never learning, just playing as useful idiots of Satan.

The particles of that are what is the problem. They don't ever go away and they are just the right size that they get stuck in the little air sacks in our lungs. I've talked with people from there and the birth defects are real. Not so much as that cover picture, but still a real problem, and lung cancer and leukemia levels are much higher than they were before we used it there. I think it was Slovenia we first used it and it had the same effect there. That's why Russia doesn't use it and 120 other countries also. There are metals that work just as well but are a lot more expensive to use. Then there is getting rid of the DU that's left over from making bombs and power plant fuel. Of course our military is fighting the exposing of it all. Kind of like they did with Agent Orange and the Anthrax vaccines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Isnt there any friction between the DU bullets and the barrel that release the radio active ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The DU isn't the whole round just the tip and core that does the penetrating of the armor. It isn't much of a health hazard until it is fired and hits it's target and burns. The resultant particles are so small they get caught in the air sacks of one's lungs and cause long term problems. If ingested, it causes kidney problems and can raise levels of leukemia as it did in both Iraq and Slovenia. It is my understanding that the radiation from DU does not penetrate the skin well, it's when it gets inside one's body that it is such a problem.

I don't believe the DU is just the tip, its the whole projectile that goes into barrel and the friction create dangerous dust that may harm the shooters. Edited March 31, 2023 by R.
