Do you have the slightest idea how little that narrows it down?
The birth defect line actually narrows it down pretty well, depleted uranium concerns are basically bullshit so that largely narrows it down to Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia.
Everyone else either just got bombed to shit or just got done killing 25 million Chinese, Filipino, and Korean people.
Fallujah wants a word.
Eh, I mean, I'd rather not have DU dust everywhere. It is still all alpha emitter, after all. Plus, it's a heavy metal.
DU concerns with tank rounds are bullshit. With autocannon rounds, the dispersion and amount may actually be harmful.
To people that inhale dust particles from fragmented rounds possibly, but that's simply not a generational concern.
I think one day we'll find out any problems largely come from all the horrificly nasty chemicals that just so happen to be included by requirement in modern propellents and explosives as they inevitably make their way into the water supply and soil. While DU might not make that problem better, it's going to be a fraction of the contamination from a modern bombing campaign.
And a fraction of a fraction of the damage done by the kind of bombing Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos suffered.
Someone bought the propaganda, I see. You're right, DU is harmless to coat a country in, and all the cleanup efforts are only to clean away all non-DU contaminated soil. It's straight up humanitarian work they're doing!
