.......and you will never be confused about DU again....
In brief, 8 tons of Uranium produces 1 ton of usable energy material and the 7 tons of left-over material, which is called Depleted Uranium, DU for short, which cannot be stored on this planet, because any human who goes near it will die! and this will go on poisoning the planet for more than 4.5 million years.
Yet, the US government gives this material (DU) to the military industrial complex FREE. Then they put it in bombs and drop it on US enemies, thereby solving the DU storage problem!
Clever, eh?

Maireid Sullivan, this is an incredible video...thank you for being our "DU correspondent." This video is extremely effective in that it's a great blend of fact, personality and startling image (obviously, the deformed children). It was done in a manner so as to contextualize but not to shove the images in your face, which is an extreme turnoff. Kudos to truthout.org, and to you Maireid!
Everyone, please watch the video! Here's the link again: http://www.truthout.org/docs_2006/042007B.shtml

Maireid Sullivan, a thought provoking article and if true the use of DU
should be stopped immediately. Good stuff.
