What has been won in any war fought outside of our country?
Certainly, not our freedom.
And for decades now, we contaminate everyones land we attack with depleted uranium.
In the ashes of every war, the seeds of the next conflict are sown.
Its ok sherri----I did notice that pre-law students simply do not do well in
the sciences. A lesson for you-----there is constant level of BACKGROUND
IONIZING RADIATION all over the planet-----all the time-----the use of
depleted uranium has no significant effect on the BACKGROUND radiation.
IT IS TRUE---that ionizing radiation on base pairs in chromosomes can and DOES
facilitate mutation-------and has been present since allah/isa said "let their be
darkness and misery"
What do we really know about HARM TO THE ENVIRONMENT? well----
the most significant damage to huge parts of the land were caused
by SHEEP HERDERS Sheep eat vegetation down to the ROOTS-----and
clear lands of vegetation which leads to erosion and vast WASTE LANDS-----
The SAHARA DESERT was created by nomadic sheep herders-----it was once
lush and green In fact---even the Negev was cultivatable land before
it was invaded by BEDOUIN from arabia -----did you know that the Bedouin
of arabia are actually migrants DIRECTLY from arabia? Their migrations were
traced by the usual tools anthropologists employ ----most particularly
ETYMOLOGY-----bedouins speak ----the ARABIAN dialect of arabic
Back to history-----way back in the time of the real Jesus----there were whole
communities of persons living ---way out in the negev----ON THE PRODUCE
OF THAT LAND ---including its water. If you read the bible you know about
ELIJAH-----he lived way out in the negev in a large named community---that was
kinda "monastic" -----In fact---JOHN THE BAPTIST is compared to Elijah----he lived
in the same manner. The ESSENES a community that some assciated with the
real jesus------were also a monastic group way out there. They were not supported
by coins dropped in church plates------they engaged in a bit of agriculture---using
the THEN available natural resources Is that not interesting?
getting back to NOW -----so far no one had demonstrated that depleted uranium
creates environmental problems and my considered opinion is that
remote agent orange exposure does not lead to IMPOTENCE
