Agent Orange: A Terrible Legacy

Agent Orange/dioxin, a toxic defoliant sprayed by the U.S. military in Vietnam during the war, is continues to have a devastating effect on thousands of people in Vietnam today. Passed down genetically, deformed babies are being born every day. Vietnam Reporting Project fellow Catherine Karnow visited Vietnam in July, 2010, to document the lives of two families struggling with Agent Orange-related diseases. Yet despite their poverty and sadness, the families manage to find moments of happiness.

This is actually Julian's girlfriend using his account...i remember when i was a teen...and loks were everything...i would spend hours in the morning trying to look good, and i used to make fun other kids like this, but know when i see stupid comments that people make, making fun i kids like this i kinda want to stranggle them...i wish that i were able to take away good looks from people who are so stuck up, and have them go through what they put other people through.

I want to thank you for all that you do. My Father just passed away from lung cancer from exposure to Agent Orange in Vietnam. The worst thing is our Military is still using these toxic cocktails everywhere. They are using depleted uranium bombs in the middle east and that is going to kill millions maybe even billions of people even our own soldiers. All these wars are fabricated false flags by our Government through covert operations. God Bless you
