The materials at Chernobyl or Hiroshima didn't combust? Far ****ing out!

Well ****. So why did we ban asbestos?

Petros... come on now. Aren't we talking about DU? In your desperation you have completely moved the goalposts to involve all the hazards of radiation from nuclear power plant disasters to Hiroshima.

Face it...you lost this one.

Ban asbestos? Canada isn't mining and exporting asbestos any longer?

Referring to post #140:

The number of characters to disguise vulgar profanity, is inversely proportional to intelligent input to the debate.

Anyone surprised??

Yes we are. What happens to it DU when set ablaze? IS DU safe like asbestos until the particles are small enough to enter your respiratory suystem? Or you can do what you want when you want?

The World Health Organization and the Atomic Energy Commission has stated there is no evidence supporting your claims.

Plain and simple.

You lost.

BTW... did Canada ban asbestos? Are they not mining and exporting it? I was going to bring this up earlier but I thought it would take the focus off the topic... which is DU.

Answer the question. What happens when DU is set ablaze? Does it oxidize into breathable particles that emit alpha rays or not?

BTW your pentagoons say that DU is dangerous to lungs, kidneys' liver, etc etc.

Why do they say that?

I know when DU is shot from a barrel of a tank or a cannon it is very dangerous to the occupants of a targeted tank or armored vehicle. No question. Molten ANYTHING is dangerous.

I know that the W.H.O and the A.E.C have said there is no evidence that supports what you are saying. The evidence and facts are on my side Petros.

I probably would have watched the whole thing except that it has been doctored and altered with politcal messages. You know, talking about Hiroshima etc.

Nevertheless, the W.H.O and Atomic Energy Commission has said there is no evidence to support your claim.

In other words the Pentagon is up it's own ass because WHO say so?

Say whaaaat?!

There was something wrong with the audio that warrns about radioactivity and heavy metal toxicity? It is what the Pentagon goes by.

Yup...don't be licking the side of a tank that was hit by a DU round.


Why would they say something opposite of WHO?

Not sure. All I know is...

The W.H.O AND the Atomic Energy Commission does not support your claims.

What are their opinons on breathing urainium oxide post weapon ignition? Or did you merely dance around that again.

You really really need to listen to that training film. They talk plenty about radioactive contamination from uranium oxides and give a whole list suggestions when it comes to personal contamination and contaminated equipment.


Do you still believe the 2-4-5-T/2-4-D lies?

There is nothing to dance around.

Let me make make my self clear to you.

If an atomic bomb goes off... and soldiers walk into the area immediately after are they in danger of radiation exposure? Yes

If there is a fire at a nuclear power plant and the core is exposed releasing radiation in the air... is there danger? Yes

Is there danger using DU rounds? Nope. And the W.H.O and Atomic Energy Commision supports me. If the Atomic Energy Commission said otherwise we would not be having this discussion.

The evidence is just not there to support you Petros. It supports me. :)

Meaning soldiers and civillians who were exposed to DU have not come down with ailments over and above anyone else.

Badabing!

You really really need to listen to that training film. They talk plenty about radioactive contamination from uranium oxides and give a whole list suggestions when it comes to personal contamination and contaminated equipment.

So now you want me to listen to the "pentagoons" as you so called them. lol.

Do you still believe the 2-4-5-T/2-4-D lies?

Oi vay.

One more time.....DU when combusted makes for uranium oxides which is both toxic as a heavy metal and is radioactive. When inhaled or ingested you will be dosed. PERIOD.



DU like a chunk of serpentine (asbestos) could sit on your coffee table and be nearly 100% harmless until you turn it into an aerosol.

Of course they will tell you DU is nearly harmless because it is, in general until it is used as a weapon and the DU is chemically converted to plethora of deadly RADIOACTIVE oxides.

Are the uranium oxides safe? Yes or no?

Nope. Asbestos is extremely hazardous and well documented and Canada produces and exports it in abundance.

Asbestos is completely toxic and deadly and there are MOUNTAINS of evidence to prove it. Perhaps you should worry more about the MILLIONS of dead and dying of asbestos than chasing rainbows. I know a few who have died of asbestos poisoning and my father struggles with it. DU exposure...none.

Whereas DU... none... no evidence. Just ask the World Health Organization and Atomic Energy Commission.

What does the WHO and AEC say about DU?

The use of DU as a weapon is just wrong. To deny it is dangerous is wrong headed and foolish. The Pentagon
denies the danger for their own reasons. The use of DU made the Gulf war pretty much one big war crime that affected
both the victim and the user.

Department of Veterans Affairs Reports 73 Thousand U.S. Gulf War Deaths : Veterans Today

The evidence simply does not support the claim. There is no higher rate of cancers in people exposed to DU as opposed to people who are not.

There is no evidence to support your claim.

The facts speak for themselves.
