1. Can you say depleted uranium;
Or white phosphorous? Or even nastier weapons that this peace loving country has developed?

What a country!

3. When do we wake up..
and take responsibility for the unfathomable damage we do to countries in the name of protecting America. We inflict gross terror on others while claiming 'defense.' The disconnect between ideology and reality is enormous and no one is held accountable. When civilians and children are killed or maimed the emotional damage done to their loved ones is forever. I find being a patriot a very hard row to hoe.

5. Can anyone tell me if this aired in the U.S.?
I think this show is only on CNN International, but I'm not sure. The U.S. television media usually doesn't show the effects of war... even with the same channel, CNN vs. CNN International, there's a huge difference between what they show internationally and what they show in the U.S. In the U.S., they generally only show the wide shots of the fireworks, not the wounded or dead or the deformed children.

We saw this on the TV here in Argentina, my wife said she would bet me that they don't show this on the TV in the U.S. I said I'm not taking that bet, you're probably right.

BTW, no known cause my ass. We all know it's DU, WP, and/or heavy metals and poisons from bombings.

9. american soldiers' babies are being born with birth defects too. Probably not
as severe but they are happening. I happened after and during the vietnam war, after the gulf war and now. I have seen some of this in person, I have a child born with birth defects during the vietnam era, and since we are military, I was asked if my husband was exposed to agent orange. Also once I was at the military clinic where I took my daughter, and on the bulletin board was a notice about a meeting of parent with children born with birth defects connected with the first Gulf war when Bush I was president. And they will deny everything. They were still 'questioning' the causes when my daughter was almost 20 years old.
