U.S. soldiers suffering horrible effects from depleted uranium

Good time to downsize the Veteran's Administration, Georgie! I did not know they were using DU for armor. That is such a bad idea that words fail me.

Y'know, after you see what the actual results of the "kill 'em all" approach are, especially in terms of fellow citizens of your own country, it's a lot harder to believe in it anymore. Especially as it never really seems to work out; you can't kill 'em all. I recently had a disagreement with a friend over that, 'cause he seemed to be taking that attitude about what should be done in regard to Islam. If you think about it practically for even a few minutes, it's just not workable.

Besides, when you have friends who have kids and start thinking about them getting put in harm's way like that, it takes on a whole different meaning...
