[ RadSafe ] Now DU is being claimed for causing need for hip replacement due to reduced blood flow

[Roger Helbig]

Tanya Boozer - the first poster is one who claims that Asaf Durakovic's UMRC testing found tell tale U-236 15 years after her claimed exposure to DU in the Gulf War .. nothing is yet known about Ms Boozer's duties or location in the Gulf -

Herbert Reed - the second poster recently completed an anti-DU crusade tour of New Mexico and Costa Rica - apparently sponsored by the NoMoreDU group affiliated with the Greens in NY City - Reed was apparently an MP in the NY National Guard  who was deployed to Iraq.  His test by the UMRC was sponsored by a New York tabloid.  Now, he is claiming need for hip replacement due to reduced blood flow; he has previously claimed that he needed to take Viagara among his cocktail of drugs in a widely circulated Associated Press article.  Given the way he tries to make it look like he is a trained investigator of some sort; he is actually believed to have been a prison guard at NY's Riker's Island, I suspect that Reed has found a way to milk his UMRC test for all it is worth.

Romi Elnagar - the third poster echoes Karen Parker, an activist lawyer in San Francisco, who somehow got a committee of some sort in some way associated with the UN Human Rights Commission, to declare that use of DU munitions is a war crime.  I have yet to be able to find out what this really means, but Parker and associated anti-DU activists, of which Elnagar has in the past year become one of the most prolific through her supposed Depleted Uranium Study Team (no one with actual knowledge need apply; their posts will not appear on the publicly available AmericanDUST Yahoo Group.

Hi. I believe that it is, but did a doctor actually admit that DU
exposure is the cause of this? A VA doc, or private?

Thanks,
Tanya

I was just notified by my doctor that i have to have a hip
replacement because there is no blood flow to the hip bone causing the
bone to die. DU is the cause. Tell me about the Government not telling
the truth.

Dear Herb,

Since the government is the one that is using DU in the first place
(and, BTW, it's a war crime), do you really think you can trust them
to tell you the truth even if you do get them to "test" you? They've
"lost" other people's test results, and I'm not even sure they run the
correct kinds of tests to begin with. Check out our Files.

Peace and best wishes,
