<DIV dir=ltr>A recently published UN <A
href="http://www.theguardian.com/environment/earth-insight/2013/oct/13/world-health-organisation-iraq-war-depleted-uranium">study</A> alleges
that there are not abnormally high rates of birth defects in Iraq, thus
absolving US forces of doing anything damaging by their use of depleted uranium.
The design of this study shows, once again, how who backs a scientific study is
very significant because its design can reach almost any conclusion that the
designers want. As the article cited shows, there have already been considerable
criticisms of this study by scientific experts.
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>This issue is also relevant to a subject we've debated on this list several
times: Whether low levels of radiation can be harmful. I think it is clear that
the use of depleted uranium shells is devastating.</DIV>
<DIV><BR></DIV>
<DIV>The World Health Organization study ranks up there with the Nobel Peace
Prize's award to Obama several years ago.</DIV>
