California introduces legislation encouraging moratorium on use of DU, probably not worth the paper it might be printed on, but totally infused with false premises.  I became aware of it thanks to Steve Sugarman, Executive Director of umbrella non-profit International Humanities Center which provides funding to the Afghan DU & Recovery Fund which claims that Afghani children have birth defects due to US use of DU munitions and from the "multi-pronged remedial containment" at the end of this blurb that solicits donations really seems to just be a scam.

http://www.ihcenter.org/groups/afghandufund.html (what munition is depicted in the photo on this page .. does it even contain DU?) - it looks like some sort of laser guided smart bomb.

Afghan DU & Recovery Fund is established to clean DU (depleted uranium) from areas in Afghanistan bombed by the US-UK forces. Our goal is to establish monitoring stations for monitoring uranium dust in Afghanistan and pave the way for ameliorative actions amounting to cleanup. We have formulated a strategy that would constitute a new approach to the 'cleanup' of such disasters. In fact, the word 'cleanup' has no operational value in this scenario; hence, we call our approach a Multi-Prong Remedial Containment.
