Bush lied about the presence of Weapons of Mass destruction (WMD) being in Iraq and developed by the late Saddam Hussein. Tragically, the illegal Iraq War continues causing illness to over one million U.S. soldiers and billions of dollars lost that could be used for U.S. infrastructure enhancements, education, housing and medical services for Americans.
Bush Missing WMD Found In Iraq !!
The book, web site and “Tribune Gazette” develop the theme that there is a “New Iron Curtain Around the USA, “A Media Iron Curtain”. As evidence of this: How many Americans are aware that over one million U.S. soldiers and countless innocent Iraqi civilians, have been exposed to the deadly radioactive WMD in Iraq, Depleted Uranium (DU)?
And also tragic, “We the People of the United States”, courtesy of Bush, are responsible for it being there.
As the pictures with this article graphically show, Depleted Uranium is a lethal, unconscionable, radioactive weapon and the extent to which it has and will continue to cause illnesses and the loss of life are unacceptable.
While most of us may not have the background to understand what the implications of 360 tons vs. 10 tons of DU is, given the numbers and seriousness of the illnesses, we can grasp the clear message that 3,000 tons of DU as used in Iraq is a catastrophe. see Note 1 below.
Karl Schwartz:
They have exposed close to a million of our troops.
They put 425,000 Americans in Desert Storm and over 300,000 of them are having medical disability issues.
“The Canadians told me, “Oh, for the record, the reason we didn’t go to Iraq is we are already seeing some huge health issues on the Canadian troops that participated in Desert Storm, Bosnia, and Afghanistan. We’re not going to be exposing our folks to this stuff anymore. We’re against it.” Now, they’re coming to grips in their own country with some very real and very tragic health stories, and our government is sitting on it.”
See note 2 below page 15
The implications of these numbers are numbing: the huge potential of so many Iraq war vets ill and dying and their wives vulnerable to becoming infected and to give birth to deformed offspring.For the people of Iraq, living in areas of high DU concentrations, the effects are beyond tragic. Iraq babies are born so deformed that many are hardly recognizable as human babies.

An Interview with Dr. Ernest Sternglass
By W. Leon Smith, Editor-in-Chief Lone Star Iconoclast, February 28, 2006
“ The issue of greatest concern is that Americans at home as well as the people in the UK and in many parts of the world are unwilling participants in this tragedy.
“... Measurements by the Weapons Establishment in England show that these fine particles travel thousands of miles around the world and, Leuren Moret has pictures that NASA satellites took showing the sand storms going across the Atlantic and all over the world so we have totally underestimated the very serious nature of the use of uranium as weapons.” “

African Dust Storms Bring Depleted Uranium to the Southern U.S.
by Richard Stenger CNN, June 18, 2001
Dust storm plumes from northern Africa travel thousands of miles across the Atlantic transporting millions of tons of sand and dust with bacteria, viruses, pollen, pollution, and radioactive isotopes such as depleted uranium from the Middle East and Central Asia.1 The easterly trade winds carry the dust across the Atlantic in 5-7 days at about 10,000 feet.2 Almost all of it is rained out into the environment within two months, including the depleted uranium and other radioactive isotopes from the Sahara. In fact these atmospheric dusts are what make sunsets red. The seasonal African storms peak in July, contributing to a reddish haze across the U.S. Southeast. From June to October the Caribbean and Central America are targeted by the storms, but the Amazon Basin gets hit from February to April.
