Re: [Fwd: [abolition-caucus] Uranium pollution and your health]



Hi Norm,

Thought you might be interested in what Dan Fahey, formerly of the Military Toxics Project and author of numerous studies on DU, has to say about Dai Williams' estimates of DU use in Afghanistan and Iraq.  In 'Science or Science Fiction ; Facts, Myths and Propaganda in the Debate Over Depleted Uranium' published earlier this year and available on the WISE Uranium Project website Fahey states that Williams' claim "is built on one speculation after another, so the astronomical estimate should be regarded more as a work of science fiction than a product of academic analysis."

>From my own researches into DU I would have to agree with Fahey's statement.

In peace,  Dave Andrews
