Israel used depleted uranium in offensive on Gaza -- NGOs
KUNA
GENEVA, May 23, 2009 (KUNA) -- Action of Citizens for the total Dismantling of Nukes (ACDN) said Saturday that it has just produced a 33-page report concluding that the presence of as much as 75 tons of depleted uranium in Gaza soil is highly probable to the Israeli "Operation Cast Lead" offensive.
The operation took place between December 27, 2008 and January 18, 2009.
During the first few days, a Norwegian doctor doing humanitarian service in the hospital at Shifa, Dr Mads Gilbert, denounced the presence of radioactive matter, possibly depleted uranium, in the bodies of victims.
This accusation has now emerged with greater strength after several months of investigation carried out in close liaison with the people concerned and with the help of Jean-Francois Fechino, a consultant on diffuse pollution and an expert accredited to the UN Environment (UNEP).
In April 2009, a four-person mission including Fechino, went to Gaza under the auspices of the Arab Commission for Human Rights.
The samples of earth and dust that they brought back from Gaza were then analysed by a specialist laboratory, which found in them elements of depleted uranium (which is radioactive, carcinogenic, teratogenic), particles of cesium (which is radioactive and carcinogenic), asbestos dust (which is carcinogenic), volatile organic compounds (VOCs, which are fine particles which endanger health, especially the health of children, asthmatics and old people), phosphates (from oxidation of white phosphorus), tungsten (which is carcinogenic), copper, aluminium oxide (which is carcinogenic), and thorium oxide (ThO2, which is radioactive).

| Comment by what, a competitor to the u.s. in the du seeding market, how can this be????? - 23 May 2009 - 19:35 [USER NOT REGISTERED] | and I thought that the United Snakes was the only nation carrying out war crimes against future generations of Palestinians and Iraqi's and Afghani's and Pakist ani's (if I left any invaded country out, please fill them in for me, okay??) by the illegal use of DU penetrators and munitions.
Oh well, they'll just have to cover it up with the use of WHITE PHOSPHOROUS, huh ????
by the way, when you see posts with references to BOTTOM FEEDER and DIE JEWS DIE or stuff to that effect, you'll find this very same posting in about 20 other b logs, and it is, in fact, MOSSAD/IDF/COINTELPRO personnel copying and pasting it in so they can use this as the excuse to shut down the blog.
So be forewarned. You'll see the same shit 'verbatim' on other blogs, and you'l l know it's being seeded in there by the IDF shills. They're doing it for a rea son.
not that I don't agree with the verbiage, any real blog entry wouldn't be 'verba tim' every single time. An intelligence operative from MOSSAD or CIA or FBI, on the other hand, would be too lazy to hand type it every time.
