World Opinion is Worthless

"evildoers" never do wrong. When have you ever heard of a terrorist group making a "mistake". Killing civilians for them is their goal, and they have huge parties in the streets when they accomplish that goal.

But when Israel, or the US, makes a mistake by killing civilians, they are the "evildoers"

What do you think DU weapons are for? If not to kill innocent civilians for generations to come.

Knocking out entire buildings and contaminating the environment forever.

Use of DU weapons, including the 5000 lb GBU 28 Bunker busters by Israel, USA, Britain and others - is a crime against humanity, so deemed by the UN Human Rights Tribunal in 1996 and 1997. They are in direct contravention of the Geneva Convention.

Talk of peace is a joke, while so called "civilized nations" allow the use of depleted uranium weapons.

So instead of negotiating peace, the apparent goal is to annihilate all the people living in Lebanon, Iran, Syria, Iraq, Afganastan by contaminating their environment forever.

Too bad the fallout has a nasty tendency to stay suspended in the atmosphere and traverse the planet on the tradewinds.

IF you believe in peace, you cannot agree with the use of nuclear weapons, and DU is a nuclear weapon.

All along I thought that depleted uranium was used due to its characteristics of extreme toughness and heavy weight. This allows the US to use small very high speed projectiles in tanks and other fighting vehicles. These projectiles travel with such speed that they penetrate the toughest and heaviest armor, literally causing the armor to explode like a watermelon hit by a high-powered rifle.

I am sure the pentagon would welcome a potential replacement which has no potential for radiation damage. Or we could just let the enemy destroy our army with impunity. No thanks.

I am told also that 20mm cannons shells on our ships are made of DU.
These cannons are automatic and based on the gatling gun principle. If a missle is launched towards one of our ships, it can be easily destroyed. In fact, when these were first tested, they had to be detuned because once the missle had been destroyed, the cannons started shooting up the scraps flying around in the air.

I doubt that our enemies have any reservations about launching ANYTHING towards us because of any sort of environmental damage.

By the way, the cannons on ships are walled off by shatterfproof material because they fire thousand of rounds per minute and it is plainly not safe to be around them. The spent brass flies around like bullets and the noise and heat are unbearable. Just think what these would have saved if they had been available at the battle of Okinawa when we lost thousands of sailors to kamakazee planes.

I am glad that Kathy has nothing to do with protecting our countries other than nitpicking.

would this non radiating nuke be better?

"Miniature bomb. Explosive yield, 2 KT [kilotons]. Size, 5-inch diameter." That would be an explosion about one-seventh the power of the bomb that obliterated Hiroshima in 1945. this new generation of nuclear weapons are "safe" for use in the battlefield.

btw if Iran keeps up thier crap, we should send them a few cases of these "mini nukes"
