The Russians is more or less sablerassling, again. But they do have a point about nuclear weapon... The US have for years now tried to stop the gap between conventional weapons, and nuclear one, with some of the biggest, most mean "bunker busters" human ever have seen to this day... And the nuclear weapons have been smaller and smaller, and a new generation of Small nuclear weapons is out there, who can be used against targets - and they claim that the new weapons is not radiation danger than the "old types" of today

I for one Will say that the use of Depleted Uranium os a sort of use of nuclear weapon.Even if it docent blow up as a nuclear weapon, it radiate, and radiate for a long time after use... And it is more or less proven that DU ammo is DANGEROUS for humans, more than 12 year after the Iraq-Kuwait war, it is still a lot of cancer in the area of Basra, before the war, when the US first used the stuff - many of the types who is there today was not existing, or at least on a level where it was more or less "statistic safe"...

But I guess it count first and most important when americans are hit by the weapons the americans is using in large quanta I guess... Yes I'm cynical, but i am also somewhat of a realist, and this type of weapons is "to important" in the US military to be stopped used because of little radiation poising by civilians who the US have no responsibility for, or care for...
