  • Which pixel is the uranium?

  • I paused the video and counted each pixel in this video... There are 18 pixels vertically and 32 pixels horizontally, leaving us with a grand total of 576 pixels in the entire video...

    But at least the audio is understandable.

  • @MrReconaissance1 Fortunately, the important information is in the audio which is understandable.

  • @McLir I agree.

  • @MrReconaissance1 All that at about 3 frames per second. lol

  • We had to take thumb drive awareness and sexual harassment training four times a year but I've never seen any video like this while in and I was in for 13 years.

  • @TheRealSuperSlayer, last I heard, this Depleted Uranium video has never been shown to soldiers or Marines on the ground in any official capacity. It was approved back in the 90s but not been shown. So spread the word. Thank you for the feedback and thank you for your service. Peace and good health to you!

  • THIS IS THE CAUSE OF MOST GULF WAR SICKNESS

  • Just a little pixelation, no problem.

  • lol, 30x30 pixel resolution, true HD.

  • I’ve found several versions of this video online so far. I’m seeing that one is clear and yours is not yet more complete.

    The other video while much clearer blinks a lot and is not complete, (Subliminal message?). I feel this is extremely important information being former military myself. Thank you my friend. I wish you and yours blessings of excellent health, love, peace and prosperity now and always! :)

  • @shadowone6, thank you for the kind words! I'm sorry I'm only reading them months later. And I will say to you what you said to me so kindly, "Thank you my friend. I wish you and yours blessings of excellent health, love, peace and prosperity now and always!"

  • This is just a convienient way to get rid of waste, look up a video of all the Cancers little children are getting in Iraq, it's wrong plus the soldiers themselves and families are getting ill too.

  • The video quality is very poor. But the important content is in the audio. The danger of depleted uranium is that once it's in the body, it's almost impossible for the body to get rid of it. So the exposure to radiation is long-term and concentrated on nearby tissues.

  • unwatchable

  • I don't understand how the radioactivity of depleted uranium is a danger when its less than natural uranium, and natural uranium's radiation isn't much higher than the normal background radiation you are exposed to every day.

  • @xygomorphic44 shutup you are only talking through your asshole. go back to school you stupit idiot

  • @gaggotgaggot Care to answer my question? Or are you just going to call me an idiot for no reason? Blow your load due, but next time use a grammar check.

  • @xygomorphic44 your question makes no sense at all. you need to educated your self in the basics first. by the way what does 'blow your load due' mean?????????????

  • @gaggotgaggot How can you not understand what I'm saying? Read it carefully, its not rocket science. In addition to using a grammar check, you should also use an idiot check. I guess that what happens when they lets kids sign up for youtube.

  • @xygomorphic44 shut up you dumb dumb little idiot. you sould go back to school you stupit idiot

  • Filmed on a calculator?

  • @piggypolice it was filmew with a camera cellphone from the 80s

  • @piggypolice filmed on a calculator with nixie tubes

  • I used to watch this video every month or so. my squad leader forced us to watch it. he had depleted uranium poisoning from Gulf War I. The narrator says "depleted uranium 234" with authority in a somewhat humorous but dark tone. My uncle is dying from Cancer and diabetes from Agent Orange. He served in the US Army in Vietnam. War is a racket. These are all merely personal thoughts and are not meant to be taken out of the context of my opinion.

  • Make's one ponder a question. Have humans now become a target of toxic waste radiation guns......

    Thank you dr doug!

    GOD bless,and all the best!

    PS Not an immediate danger,thats bologna! Use all that protection,but no worries....lol

  • So the middle east is ruined?

  • this was original played on the gbc

  • LOL @ the idiots that are unable to listen an take in any kind of knowledge from the video just because the pixels suck. He re-posted this, it has better video quality.

  • wtf...graphic is like puzzles <.<

  • amazing quality 6 stars

  • audio 5/10

    video -35535/10

  • yeah shit quality. it makes me strain my mind to try to watch it. actually it hurts my eyes. i think the government should give me money cause low quality video hurts my eyes. seriously. i mean we are in the new age of hdtv. haha. fucking liberals. ha.

  • the vid has a shit quality..i quit a 1.04...

  • There are actually more American soldiers committing suicide than dying from "depleted" uranium, but it is possible that breathing the radioactive, chemically toxic DU dust particles makes you want to kill yourself.

  • just cover your mouth and everthing will be fine let your commanding officer decide if your exposure requires attention and when.and dont forget to wash off those heavy metals with some contaminated water its all pretty funny to watch this video i hope solders dont believe everything they re told. if a sun burn gives you skin cancer what does D.U. dust give you?what better way to get rid of nuke waste then just dumping it in some other country , problem solved

  • funny: all this talk and out-loud worry about "terrorists" getting their hands on nuclear material and making "dirty bombs".Well thanks to the zealots in the Pentagon there's plenty just lying there for the taking on the battlefield.

  • The stuff on the battlefield is worthless as "dirty bomb" material. Its just not that radioactive.

  • I'd disagree. it is loaded with A/B particle. the pulverized Uranium is most dangerous. It remains an emitting isotope after heat. Even the Army recognizes the threat. Watch one of their training videos some time. Or just look at the locals who live nearby. This stuff in it's natural state is dangerous too.

    Where did all the glow-in-the-dark toys go a few decades ago? I'll tell: they realized these toys bombed radiation. It's mainly why glowing instrument panels are sealed shut.

  • Incorrect fact: Glow in the dark toys implied to be radioactive.

    Actual fact: They operate using Zinc Sulfide or Strontium Aluminate. These are not radioactive substances.

  • not in the 60s. the change came for the very reason I speak.

  • I do not know what change you are talking about.

  • Incorrect Implied Fact: Glowing Instrument Panels glow because of Uranium or Depleted Uranium.

    Instrument panels glow because they use Tritium. They do not include any Uranium or Depleted Uranium.

  • Incorrect Fact: Depleted Uranium produces dangerous Alpha Particles.

    Actual Fact: Alpha Particles are stopped by a sheet of paper or by clothing and travel only a couple of inches in air.

    Only when ingested or inhaled do these alpha particles become an issue. However, at the slow rate of production, the CHEMICAL effects of Uranium overwhelm the radiological effects at biologically active levels.

  • to bounce my thread: let's not think "bomb" think food supply and water supply. Pour this crap into the drinking water and everyone who drinks, drinks alpha particles, which tear the insides up. They're so small they sift through every body filter and invade cells without effort.

  • The small amount in water would be trivial from a radiological perspective.

    DU is far more dangerous as a heavy metal.

  • You are way bent up about the radioactivity... in appropriately.

  • thanks doc. I'm out-a here. I see you as prejudging and maybe even a troll

  • Uhhh... that's your response? You call names when challenged on your incorrect facts?

    Seems like THAT is trollish behavior.

  • this is the thread that has my dander up. This is your opinion of me yet it is stated as absolute.

    One might say "in my opinion You are"...

  • What opinion have I stated of you? Why are you going high order? I have been talking about DU... not about you.

    You seem to be imagining that I have said things I have not said.

  • It's no big deal. You stated my interest in DU "inappropriate". that is your opinion but it was typed as if it were fact. Something that bothers: stating opinion as fact.

    I think not enough is known about the ramifications of DU and we should not use it

    Look at the neat outcome of all this coal burning for 200 + years. No one suspected we'd all be eating mercury. These people are being too reckless, for power, money, control whatever. I am ashamed to be of the same species

  • You misread. I did not state that your interest was inappropriate. I said you were placing an inappropriate emphasis on its radioactivity, which is not such a big issue.

    I note that it bothers you when people state opinions as facts. Does it bother you when you do it, or is it only troubling when you see it in others?

    What do you think we need to know about DU that we do not know?

    What is the outcome of 200+ years of burning coal?

    Maybe others are ashamed of you!

  • ok see? you did it again

    your statement:

    you were (are) placing an inappropriate emphasis on its radioactivity,

    If I were to type this about someone which makes it personal BTW, I'd say:

    In my opinion you were (are) placing an inappropriate emphasis on its radioactivity,

    see any significant difference here?

    I see you stating your opinion as fact here and it is directed to my person.

  • you were (are) placing an inappropriate emphasis on its radioactivity,

    ===

    But that is not an opinion. It is a fact. You were ignoring the chemical toxicity issues and complaining about the radioactivity.  That is objectively true. Review the discussion and see for yourself.

  • well thank you! are you the inappropriate cop or something? this is an opinion because there no established limit on "appropriate" or anything except in your head which makes it your opinion Do you decide what's appropriate for all? lol

  • You are welcome! Yes, to an extent I suppose I am. In a conversation with someone else, I feel pretty well justified to use facts and logic to support my perspective, and if that lends to me the credit of "cop", I have to concede the point.

  • seek help friend..take a vaca. signing off and away

  • Do you realize you have insulted me personally, over and over again.

    And I have not insulted you even once?

  • see any significant difference here?

    ===

    Yes, your statement is one of opinion. Mine was one of fact. Those are the differences.

    I see you stating your opinion as fact here and it is directed to my person.

    ====

    Not at all. I directed NOTHING to your person.

    You seem not to be able to distinguish between responses to your comments and personal insults. I have no idea why you would have such an issue.

  • DURound/lobbyist/not a lobbyist/never have been/was a lobbyist- When did you start dealing with facts?You are still attempting to influence the naive with your tall tales and cherry picked info.After your claims of being a lobbyist, followed by claiming you are not a lobbyist and have never been, followed by a claim that you were a lobbyist, it became clear that you would say anything to appear convincing.Anyone reading your comments should be aware of your history of being less then truthful.

  • Incorrect Fact: Uranium dissolved in Water is so small it sifts through every body filter and invades cells without effort.

    Actual Fact. Uranium is a fairly large atomic molecule and is not easily absorbed. 98% of all ingested Uranium passes out of the body through the feces. Of the remainder the vast majority is later excreted through the Urine. Only teensy tiny amounts remain in the body.

  • great fertilize your lawn with the shit. leave me alone

  • I am simply responding to your comments.

    Not sure why you decided to be unpleasant.

  • it's really not the size. it is the structure and surface area that matter and this "fairly large" particle is in fact comprised of many many 1 nano-meter particles which increases the surface area greatly. think of many small marbles that are set up to make a beach ball sized object. 100x surface area at least

  • A 1 nano particle, on its own, produces one ionizing radiation event, on average, every 5 months. Meanwhile, cells repair and fix themselves in about 12 hours.

    When the nano particles are clustered, the particles on the inside are less able to release their alpha particles because the particles on the outside block them.

    And typically, Uranium that is ingested, will be evacuated almost entirely within about 72 hours.

  • HOWEVER, should you ingest about 5 grams of uranium or if you inhale about 1 gram of uranium, the heavy metal toxicity is so high that you will have a 50-50 chance of dying from the metal poisoning. (5 grams ingested is the estimated LD50 dose)

  • you really back this stuff? see I won't. I won't pay taxes to a Country that uses it either. There is a war crimes commission revolving around this issue. I think Bush was even indited in abstention.

    C'mon you can't honestly condone this stuff do you?

    Why would it be a war crime to use DU if there's no toxic danger for the locals at the least?

  • Yes, I back this stuff. I believe that our troops should have the most cost effective weapons available when we go to war.

    You must pay taxes or the IRS will come after you and they are merciless.

    There is no war crimes commission on this matter. The UN has ruled on this already.

    I do honestly condone this as a weapon. Weapons destroy and kill. That's what they area about.

    Using DU is not a war crime... per the UN.

  • Ask yourself how you fell about DU in 50 years or so. Until then we should part ways because our views on this matter are too opposite. I can see we'll never agree and from here on out we'd just be agitating each other.

  • In 50 years or so, I will care even less about DU.

    You were not agitating me until you started making unwarranted personal insults, but apparently you feel very agitated by someone just responding with hard facts and cool logic. I cannot understand that but I accept that everyone is different.

  • in 50 years DU will likely migrate to the ocean as Earth salts and minerals do. Natural uranium is probably doing this now. but that's my opinion established with some research.

    Man, it looks like you got a lot of agitated ranters there on your channel do you agitate for a living?

  • it looks like you got a lot of agitated ranters there on your channel

    ===

    Nope. Hardly any.

  • uturniaphobic-There are those who comment who will say anything to appear convincing. DURound in an effort to appear convincing once claimed to be a "Washington lobbyist and knows how things work". When he realized being a lobbyist was not exactly a badge of honor he claimed he was not and never had been a lobbyist. When he realized that by his own hand he branded himself as a liar he again changed the story claiming he had been a lobbyist and claimed that others were liars.The guy has a problem

  • why all the precautions then...sounds like cotton candy the way you say it. I mean if ANY effect is mitigated within 72 hours. well some headaches go longer so what's the issue all about? Nothing permanent happens so no biggie right? Should even be available in the supermarkets too for us all to enjoy. put it next to the radiated meat or something.

  • There are good reasons for the precautions. I have not said this stuff is harmless. It's just not the environmental disaster you think that it is.

  • Up to 60,000 Americans died from Vioxx-related heart attacks, about as many as the number of US soldiers killed during the Viet Nam War.

    Another 80,000 suffered life-threatening, heart attacks. FDA had multiple opportunities to prevent this harm but did nothing.

    Over 100,000 people die each year from prescription drugs. The FDA protects Big Pharma and wants to regulate natural health means out of business.

    Do you think corporate governments really care about people?

    Paul Turner

  • "Some forms of uranium can be absorbed if placed in direct contact with unprotected skin, such as with picking up objects containing uranium. This type of exposure could be easily avoided with simple precautions, such as not picking up fired DU munitions without wearing protective gloves."

    Is it in the budget to supply protective gloves to the children in the countries where "depleted" uranium munitions are used? Paul Turner

  • your right it might not be the most hazardous but it certaintly is natural, and so is DU, thats like saying steel isnt natural because of a process of mixing iron with carbon. i dont know what your trying to say, what isn't natural about uranium and DU? if there is some process about DU that makes it totally unnatural, please inform me.

  • i understand this is the most hazardous natural metal ore in the whole world. thank you for the information. i think tungsten should be used for the military in place of DU.

  • i understand this is the most hazardous natural metal ore in the whole world.

    ===

    Depleted Uranium is not "Natural" and it is not the most hazardous material in the whole world.

    Tungsten is used in the military, but it is not an adequate replacement for Depleted Uranium.

  • how is uranium not natural? it's in the rocks and DU is just an enrichment process to make it less radioactive, just thought you oughta know! uranium is natural sorry to burst your bubble. you can look it up if you want. i thought you knew that uranium is natural, and DU is just an enrichment process, it doesn't make it not natural. LOL.

  • how is uranium not natural?

    ===

    Depleted Uranium is unnatural. Can't be found in nature.

  • if you leave natural uranium for its full 3.5 billion year half-life, wont it pretty much turn in to DU? or no?

  • if you leave natural uranium for its full 3.5 billion year half-life, wont it pretty much turn in to DU? or no?

    ===

    It might., I would have to research that.

  • cool cause you seem to know alot about DU. i guess i just believe all the hype about it. i feel foolish about my steel comment, although there is a such thing as natural steel, i wasnt thinking that once you add stuff to a material it makes it unnatural, duh im an idiot..

  • im an idiot..

    ===

    I would say that you are one of the few people posting here who is not an idiot. A person as humble as you are, is to be admired.

  • old post but, uranium depletes to lead I believe

  • Ultimately, yes to Lead. But it makes about a dozen stops along the way.

  • Well as far as I know the "238", "235" and "234" numbers represent the electron count inside the uranium atom. This is known as an atom's "atomic weight" so U238 becomes U235 and U234 over time. I don't know the atomic weight of lead only that all uranium depletes to lead over a great stretch of time.

    It is man who mines the ore and then separates the three atoms to make their creepy shit. in the natural state uranium is mixed all weights and even lead is mixed in.

  • Actually they go through decay through a number of other elements.

  • makes sense. Having so many electrons and all to start with. I suppose it could deplete beyond lead to even Hydrogen (with only one electron) given the needed time span.

  • I believe that once the balance of strong force and electroweak force are balanced (around the density of lead) decomposition no longer takes place.

  • dusting off memory...that is right I think unstable atoms are isotopes that deplete to staple. shocked I remember that. The uranium atom is an isotope I believe. Lead is not.

  • That shit is EVIL.

    ---

    What happened at that facility that caused you to feel that way? Do you believe it is more evil than lead, which is far more poisonous?

  • urparanoia, having failed to respond with logic and good thought, now trolls Youtube for opportunities to just slander other people with lies.

    ignore him

  • DURound-DURound has now contradicted his own claims of being a Washington Lobbyist. Once again he has seen that his comments/lies did not serve him well and now claims he has never been a lobbyist. Evidently he feels that if he removes his comments that no one will be the wiser. If no one is paying attention to such incidents it is also unlikely that anyone is swallowing his ongoing defense of the use of DU. Obviously he does not pocessive the common sense to see this.

  • ***ATTENTION ****  urparanoia is a TROLL

    He posts lies for the purpose of inflaming. Ignore him

  • hughesedwin- It you happen to see comments by DURound and Pixman83 who constantly defend the use of this material you should realize that DURound by his own admission is a lobbyist ( whore) for Wall Street/military industrial complex who lies for profit as he defends the use of this material as it wreaks havoc on civilians and our men and women of the armed forces. Sadly there are some who are duped by his lies. It is nice see that you are not buying such nonsense.

  • With that said, war is sometimes necessary, but wars of aggression and preemptive wars.....are BULLSHIT.

    Defense is a logical action.

    But to sit there and call people 'tree huggers' because they oppose violence and war?? Dude, are you legally retarded?

    I don't know many people who say "Yay....we're gonna have a war....yippie"

    And if I did know people like that, I wouldn't spend time around them, as I suspect they would be sociopaths or criminally insane.

  • With that said, war is sometimes necessary, but wars of aggression and preemptive wars.....are BULLSHIT.

    ===

    I do not think that they are necessarily Bullshit, but I am opposed to them as a general rule.

  • "you fuckin tree huggers always try to stop war and violence"

    Ummmm, yeah. Is that a bad thing?

    I don't hug trees, I think I did once when I was a kid.

    Other than that, yes, I always try to stop war and violence .I don't really understand why that would upset you. I'm perplexed how anyone would be offended by people who like to live peaceful lives.

    What fucking planet am I on where people actually are angry at people who think war sucks ass??????

    Very Orwellian post you made.

  • In other words, they've known for a long, long time, and they know damn well that they're killing us ALL.

  • This video looks ancient.

  • Wake up- anything the U.S accuses terrorists of having the potential to do in a worst case scenario is already being done on a day to day basis in our "war on terror". D.U munitions are clearly an indiscriminate killer and the use of such weapons is clearly classified as a war crime yet we use them everyday in Iraq and Afghanistan in clear violation of the Geneva Conventions. Can anyone say 4th Reich?

  • Concratulations! You've won the first-self-aware-american-on-y­outube prize!

  • i counted its 22x22 pixels

  • this is a horrible quality video

  • DU kills people on both sides and shouldn't be used. But then there shouldn't be a war in which to use it either if the nation that fires DU at people had any moral compass at all.

  • Fortunately, the audio is the important part.

  • I can count the pixels!!!! fuck this video

  • are the pixels on this video like 50 x 50 pixels? lol! this video resolution must be like 10x10 ahaha

  • Instead of this whole video they should just say. It's our neuclear waste, it cuts threw tanks and metals like butter, we gotta get rid of neuclear waste because It's very cancerous and we have tons of it, so we put it in our guns and boombs and shoot it at the Iraqi people so for millions of years they will suffer for cancer and birth defects.

  • I love the extremely obvious opening statement of this training film. How does the army make all of their training films to where they make you sleepy? Everyone I have ever seen or been forced to see, has been a fight to stay awake during.

  • Yawn

  • Depleted uranium does not present a significant radioactive hazard (unless you are stupid enough to eat it). It affects the kidneys and symptoms are similar to heavy metal poisoning. I should know, I was a nuclear weapons technician for 15 years.

  • Or unfortunate enough to inhale it in its aerosolized form after an impact.

  • "I was a nuclear weapons technician for 15 years"

    That explains your justifying or explaining away the crimes against humanity (like DU) you have been involved in.

  • "Crimes". Typical left wing banter. Educate yourself on the topic of DU vaccineshurtbabies, you're an ignoramus.

  • "Crimes". Typical left wing banter. Educate yourself on DU, you ignoramus."

    You can't get around the fact that Iraq had nothing to do with 9/11, that no WMD's were found and that Bush's mafia army killed far more Iraqi people than Saddam Hussein ever did. GWB and his buddies deserve to be dangling from the end of a rope.

    Re DU: look up "DU babies on google images. BTW, I'm neither left nor right wing as I don't subscribe to sheeple ideologies.

  • Do you think specialist Dr. Doug Rokke who was sent to clean up our mess in Iraq after the first gulf war in which we used D.U munitions would be stupid enough to eat the wreckage of DU damaged vehicles? Well, somehow, despite his expertise,he managed to return with injuries resulting from gamma particles which resulted in his permanent disability. "Depleted uranium does not present a significant radioactive hazard" (UNLESS YOU ARE STUPID ENOUGH TO USE IT FOR MUNITIONS). You need to wake up!

  • I was an explosive ordinance specialist for the USAF I think I know. And I have training in disarming and recovering nuclear weapons. That includes deplete uranium sabots and Ammunition. There is a reason other then exposure abrahms sabot rounds are in a seperate unit contained within the tank turret.

  • guys its depleted uranium there is a reason they use it. Theres not enough radiation to kill or hard you..And its more penetration power then lead.

  • Did you listen to the video?

  • "Theres not enough radiation to kill or harm you.."

    So how come the horrifically deformed babies in places where DU was used?

  • those arent cause by DP unless u are exposed for a long period of time. im training to be a explosive ordinance specialist in the army and ut isnt bad unless exposed for a long time

  • "those arent cause by DP unless u are exposed for a long period of time"

    Of course they tell you that because no one in their right mind would join the army if they were told the truth, would they!?

    You have to learn to think for yourself rather than automatically believe the lies these psychopaths tell you.

  • have u ever been around dp for a long time no i work with them on a daily basis and as long as i dont breath them in without a mask fo a long time nothing is going to happen

    and i mean at least 10 11 hours of it being just there

  • "i work with them on a daily basis"

    Rather you than me! Hoever, what about the civilians as in Iraq who are exposed to DU without a mask on a daily basis, or even all the rest of the people on the planet who are exposed to DU as it is being carried all over the place by air currents?

  • i see have u ever been around to du all those birth defects are coincidental

    im working for my country and if a few people have to die 2 bad

  • "all those birth defects are coincidental"

    Right. Like several hundred thousands of Iraqi coincidentally died when the US bombed and invaded Iraq. I believ it's called "collateral damage".

    "im working for my country"

    That's what you think. In fact you're working for the crime syndicate that's running your country.

  • why are u quoting every thing i say

    you fuckin tree huggers always try to stop war and violence. your an bitch all im doing is serving my country and u always have a stupid reason to oppose that

    racist

  • "all im doing is serving my country"

    the bit I quote is just to let you and others know what I am responding to.

    Your belief that you are serving your country may be misguided. Watch the youtube video "The US is a corporation, not a country." You should be able to tell from how the US treats its veterans that US soldiers are just doing dirty mercenary work for criminals like Bush, Cheney, Rumsfield, Wolfowitz etc.

  • shut the fuck up u liberal capitalist basterd all u want to do is spread the wealth which is not the answer to all our problems thats why the soveit union collapsed because of some damn idiot wanting to spread the wealth and dont talk shit about people that defend your freedom!

  • "shut the fuck up"

    I thought you Americans were into freedom of speech, or does that only apply to people who say what donkey9810 likes to hear?

    Why do you accuse me of wanting to spread wealth? I never said anything like that. All I'm saying is it would be good if the American people could stop the criminals who run your country from stealing other people's wealth and American's freedom with Nazi type legislation like the Homeland Secuity Act.

  • "dont talk shit about people that defend your freedom!"

    You're a dreamer. Watch the youtube video 'Must see!!! FEMA plan population reduction' to find out what your illuminati government has in store for the inhabitants of the land of the free.

  • "dont talk shit about people that defend your freedom!"

    Yes, right. And who's going to defend us against the world's biggest terrorist - the US government?

  • I know. CANADA AND THE HORSE MOUNTED DEVISIONS!!!! THEY WILL TIKLE US TO DEATH AND GIVE US FREE HEAlTH CARE.

  • "THEY WILL GIVE US FREE HEAlTH CARE"

    Now that would be a good idea! Have you seen "Sicko"?

  • No.

  • "I Haven't seen sicko"

    I recommend this documentary in which Michael Moore travels to various countries to compare their health systems.

  • "you fuckin tree huggers always try to stop war and violence"

    I don't, because I know I can't. Doesn't it strike you as odd though that any student who shoots a few other students at a school is tried and jailed, but mass murderers like GWB who destroy whole countries, klling thousands i te process, are allowed to roam free?

  • so GWb killed all those people

    he went out and shot them

    congress approved it and im pretty sure democrats and republicans want to stay in afghanistan so even if we leave iraq ur still gonna bitch about the u.s military u FUCKIN BITCH if u dont like it leave the damn country

  • omg. this may well be the most childish and stupid statement since George bush's last speach.

  • Can't you see that it's bigger than simply "us vs them"? There is no "them". The truth is that WE are killing US! This is a human family and the real "fight" is the sane vs. the insane. The use of these weapons is clearly a manifestation of insanity magnified to a scale never seen before in the history of this planet. If I don't like it can I leave the planet? NO! If our future is to be wrought with a mindset akin to your own then the survival of humanity is truly in jeopardy. Please wake up.

  • "can I leave the planet?"

    Reminds me of "Please stop the plant! I want to get off!"

    and

    "Beam me up Scotty! There is no intelligent life down here."

  • Thats the state of madness in which humanity lives today. The human race has lost its mind, plain and simple. The worst of the worst crimes against us are committed by "respectable", "upstanding" citizens and usually with the support of a brainwashed society. I believe whole heartedly that soon our country will be treated the way Nazi Germany was after WWII and it will be a rude awakening for those who support what the government is doing in their name.

  • "Thats the state of madness in which humanity lives today"

    To quote Alan Watt of cuttingthroughthematrix, "The psybchopaths at the top impose a psychopathic culture on the rest of us."

    This psychopathic culture has been around for so long that we accept it as "normal life", when it is nothing of the sort. It is a false reality superimposed on natural life.

    Watch the youtube video 'Creating a nation of zombies' .

  • "There's not enough radiation to kill or harm you.."

    As the saying goes: "No brain, no pain".

  • Use of radioactive munitions is so totally irresponsible, and so typical of the DoD -- there are some places we really don't want to go. It's so unsurprising and yet so sickening, that we as a nation would contenance the use of such toxic materials - and it's not a backup threat like nukes in the cold war, we used these munitions in Iraq. There are true moral absolutes, and if we can live with ourselves in this case, then the US has lost any claim to holding the moral high ground in the world.

  • About 9/11, I heard that world trade center was sold two-weeks than it crashed and the Pentagon was burned down to destroy some dirty files in it...

  • It isnt fair fight... Where are swords and shields!? :( Every guy can kill you with a gun... And this is crap! It doesn't even kill you. It leave you you to die, but not just you, it will kill your kids too, if you make them after. Not honorable, at all. Bush is gay...

  • you are ignorant.

  • Depleted Uranium is Hazard.

  • Depleted Uranium is a Hazard!. Uranium(half time) LAST for 4.6 billion years. IF your cantanimate with Uranium You will develope cancer, tumor, boby radiation DNA altered or mutation n so will your KIDs n kids kids(grandkids). It will kill you n when working with them in the battle field. You are less likely to KNOW because they don't go to this routing bases or basic n the lake of KNOWLEDGE n INFORMATION they WILL give you. BIG BROTHER DOES NOT WANT U TO KNOW.

  • war kills not Depleted Uranium.

  • I was in the gulf war, I served on the front line with the 24th in iraq and was in and around vehicles destroyed by this stuff. I am sick and my son has 5 severe birth defects of his heart and has to take hormone shots for the rest of is life. I know it may be hard for some of out there to believe but there are people who love this country enough to risk our lives for your freedom. Please don't ridicule our sacrifice with thoughtless political comments. when you demean the effort you demean us.

  • Go to the VA and get tested for DU poisoining. ALso GWS has possibly been linked to some of the vaccines given during that period. Get in the VA database so they can help. 24th Mech Acorns!

  • According to statistical studies comparing children of DU exposed Vets, Children of Vets who were not exposed to DU and Children of the population at large, indicates the birth defect rates are equivalent.

    However, I do not know if the same studies have shown any contribution of the vaccines. The vaccines may cause health problems.

    Have you been tested?

  • The video shows the devil himself. Your only job in the military is to perform the task given to you and to attempt to stop the threat of contamination. To a 18-year old, that's cool dude. To someone with a high IQ, you are nothing to the military but a loss. As those Iraq soldiers with warped faces. Tell them to come home and flip your burgers like a freak. But no....war and guns are rad cool.

  • so your saying if u join the military your a retard

  • "so your saying if u join the military your a retard"

    Sure. Who else would risk life and limb to fight for the crime syndicate that's running your country?

  • Had to drill with something like this on a 40-year old aircraft carrier with 8 outdated nuclear reactors. If there was a nuclear leak and your spotted it, you are suppose to stand their like an idiot and tells others to abandon ship. A ship with 5000 people and they have 3 small decontamination rooms. Get the hell out of here.

  • FTS

  • That pathological liar Colin Powell denied that DU is hazardous.."it's safe i've been around it all my life "

  • Where's the article that shows him saying that (again not sarcastic I am curious and googling it didn't find anything)? And also, I reiterate that, at least simply being near DU, is not hazardous. I also reiterate that I could carry a DU shell around with me all my life and I probably wouldn't suffer any negative health effects. Although, considering I don't support the Iraq War and have no plans on joining the military, my putting that to the test is unlikely, sorry. :(

  • guess duct tape IS good for everything.

  • I couldnt really see much in the video but uranium is higly radioactive it can deform our offspring of seriously affect our health

  • Uranium-238's radiation is only harmful at all if you actually manage to get some inside you (i.e. you get impaled by a HUGE chunk of shrapnel, or get a uranium round stuck inside you). And if that happened, radiation poisoning would, personally, be the least of my worries.

    Granted, there is a much larger issue with its chemical toxicity. It can easily break into a fine dust, which is harmful when inhaled. But, if you cite radioactivity as a hazard it indicates you know little ofth subject

  • And I like how you guys downvoted my reply to xxskillzxx0 rather than actually responding to and refuting it.

  • I stands to reason that DU dust wouldn't be a good thing to be around. But neither is the fallout from a lot of modern weapons. DU was used because it worked. The 30mm stuff went through soviet era armor like a hot knife through butter. If I had to fight, I'd sure as hell want it. BTW, I wonder if the Soviets would use it? Nahhh, I'm sure they're too environmentally aware to use something so nasty.

  • and cheap!

  • I'm not sure about what alternatives their are but I would prefer that a tank in front of me get knocked out by a DU round than having the tank fuck up my shit and maybe live another 20yrs then die of cancer.

    Bottom line is Sr. Military leaders don't give a shit about the 20y/o on the ground only there career advancement and power.

    Remember, agent orange, the pentagon papers.
