typical propaganda type video tbh... showing the deformed / ill babies. sure depleted uranium can cause birth problems but not from the small ammounts found in ammunitions.

using that type of ammo is no secret, all the soldiers know what they are using, it's been in use for 30 years or more.

it's frowned upon by many countries though, seen as essessive force or falling into the nuclear weapons category as causing unesessary suffereing, something with test prove not to be true in this case.

na i think it for real

will we see after 10yrs down the road if anything come of it.

i find this funny in some ways:
Vietnam: Agent Orange (kill off plant life)
use be fine for the troops!
turn out tobe a lie.
===========================================
WWII
Nuke bomb go off a test site had US-Army troop in the blast area.

same for the U.S Navy they did a test in open sea with navy personal still on the ships.

they be find they will not in the blast area.
lie they was in the back blast area were the wind blown out over them drop nuclear waste dirt on top of them then gone back in to center.
===========================================
now they use Nuclear waste in ammo to use in war zone area.
again they down graded it to a low count rads. 18ton and more

for god sack there are kids walking around! in these area's? what right we have to make a war zone into a nuclear dumping grounds.

reason for the use of it save money on use high grade metal in the weapons ammo and use nuclear waste metal in weapons ammo is dirt cheap. you know why right no one like to use it at all.

there is no good side in use of Nuclear waste metal at all. Iraq baby's / Kid's pick it up and eat it thats the end of the story.

should have never been use at all.

No one the locals are going bananas in Iraq and knocking out each other!

Aren't the bunker busters and MOABs nuclear tipped?

[Hellfighter]

Can’t say 100% on that really don't know.

But most new weapons ammo does use it.
Not small arm force weapons hand carrier one.

Two wrongs don’t make a right. There always a price to pay if we go down that road.

wiki has a ton of info on this stuff if anyone wants to read more: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Depleted_uranium

My dad did explain to me something about radiation they are being diagnosed with andstuff. No idea what he means though

[Hellfighter]

Radiation is an unseen poison! That will get into a person or animal body and destroy or damage cell in the body, in other word it unseen poison some case it can even make up cancer.

You basic walk into a Radiation area were these item laying on the ground and not even know you was in a area at all, some case they be under the dirt were you don’t even see it at all. they basic bleed into the body and start to kill or damage cells in the body.

The old USSR had a training area were it is loaded with Radiation totally, all so is the worlds largest training area as will for nuclear combat training.

After the cold-war was over it was close for training in.
