FW: Quote from Leuren Moret
I think I will pass on Doug Rokke's kind request for me to join his team,
despite my fond memories of his term as "Director of the Pentagon's DU
program" while I worked at Headquarters, Department of the Army.
Anyone want to take my place? I won't mind.

Hi Doug. Don't deal with these guys. Just support my action at the OAS
against US for attacking hospitals and clinics in Falluja and for using
uranium munitions. Why have I not heard from you on this?? Or others on this
list? Just wondering. Karen Parker, Esq. ied@igc.org ps the law suit is
moving forward nicely.

Robert: You are so concerned with Leuren and try to discredit her, myself,
and others while you, Colonel Bob Cherry (US Army retired) , Colonel Ed
Batlle
(U.S.Air Force retired) , Captain Mike Kilpatrick (U.S. Navy retired), and
others associated with RADSAF simply ignore the failure of Department of
Defense
officials to provide mandatory medical care to all depleted uranium
casualties
and complete mandatory envitronmental remediation of all contamination. If
anyone's credibility is being shattered it is your group of individuals who
refuse to help us ensure officials comply with the U.S. Army Regulation
700-48
signed by General Shinseki that mandates environmental clean up and medical
care
and all of the orders mandating medical care including the most recent
order
signed by Lt. General Ron Peake that mandates medical care for DU
casualties.
Frankly, each of you disappoints me because you attack the messengers
rather
than discuss and justify the blatant denial of medical care and refusals to
clean up the contamination.
So once more let's address the real problem. And the therefore please
answer the following basic question for the record:
WILL YOU, ED BATTLE, BOB CHERRY, MIKE KILPATRICK, BOB ENG AND OTHERS OF
RADSAFE NETWORK HELP US TO ENSURE UNITED SATES DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE
OFFICIALS
COMPLY WITH THE MEDICAL CARE AND ENVIRONMENTAL REMEDIATION REQUIREMENTS
SPECIFIED
IN U.S. ARMY REGULATION 700-48 AND LT GENERAL PEAKE'S APRIL 29, 2004 MEDICAL
ORDER AND COMPLIANCE WITH ALL OF THE OTHER PERTINENT REGULATIONS AND ORDERS?
YES ?
or
NO? .
In case, you still have not read AR 700-48 and LTG Peake's April 29, 2004
order the reference is:

and as for me, I am simply finishing my assigned task.......

and the solution even though you each ignore it still is:
Depleted Uranium Situation Requires Action
By President Bush and Prime Minister Blair
Dr. Doug Rokke, Ph.D.
July 12, 2004
While U.S. and British military personnel continue using uranium munitions-
America's and England's own "dirty bombs" U.S. Army, U.S. Department
of Energy, and U.S. Department of Defense officials continue their
unrelenting personal attacks against me, a lawyer who serves as a United
Nations Special
Rapporteur, physicians who are conducting research and providing medical
care, nurses, political leaders, and others who have spoke out regarding the
documented adverse health and environmental effects of depleted uranium
munitions.
They want to disrupt our efforts to ensure compliance with mandated medical
care and environmental remediation requirements because they want to be
always
able to use effective depleted uranium munitions during combat. These same
officials still continue to deny that there are any adverse effects to avoid
liability for the willful and illegal dispersal of a radioactive toxic
material -
depleted uranium. They arrogantly refuse to comply with their own
regulations
and directives. They willfully ignore existing U.S. Department of Defense
(DOD) directives that require prompt and effective medical care Be provided
to
"all" exposed individuals [Medical Management of Unusual Depleted Uranium
Casualties, DOD, Pentagon, 10/14/93 and Medical Management of Army
personnel
Exposed to Depleted Uranium (DU) Headquarters, U.S. Army Medical Command 29
April
2004)]. They also refuse to clean up dispersed radioactive Contamination as
required by Army Regulation- AR 700-48: "Management of Equipment
Contaminated
With Depleted Uranium or Radioactive Commodities" (Headquarters, Department
Of
The Army, Washington, D.C., September 2002) and U.S. Army Technical \
Bulletin- TB 9-1300-278: "Guidelines For Safe Response To Handling,
Storage, And
Transportation Accidents Involving Army Tank Munitions Or Armor Which
Contain
Depleted Uranium" (Headquarters, Department Of The Army, Washington, D.C.,
JULY
1996).
Army Regulation-AR 700-48 requires that:
(1) "Military personnel "identify, segregate, isolate, secure, and label
all
RCE" (radiologically contaminated equipment).
(2) "Procedures to minimize the spread of radioactivity will be implemented
as soon as possible."
(3) "Radioactive material and waste will not be locally disposed of through
burial, submersion, incineration, destruction in place, or abandonment" and
(4) "All equipment, to include captured or combat RCE, will be surveyed,
packaged, retrograded, decontaminated and released IAW Technical Bulletin
9-1300-278, DA PAM 700-48" (Note: Maximum exposure limits are specified in
Appendix
F).
The past and current use of uranium weapons, the release of radioactive
components in destroyed U.S. and foreign military equipment, and releases of
industrial, medical, research facility radioactive materials have resulted
in
unacceptable exposures. Therefore, decontamination must be completed as
required by
U.S. Army Regulation 700-48 and should include releases of all radioactive
materials resulting from military operations. The extent of adverse health
and
environmental effects of uranium weapons
contamination is not limited to combat zones but includes facilities and
sites where uranium weapons were manufactured or tested including Vieques,
Puerto
Rico, Colonie, New York, and Jefferson Proving Grounds, Indiana. Therefore
medical care must be provided by the United States Department of Defense
officials to all individuals affected by the manufacturing, testing, or use
of uranium
munitions. Thorough environmental remediation also must be completed without
further delay.
In conclusion: the President of the United States- George W. Bush and
The Prime Minister of Great Britain-Tony Blair must acknowledge and accept
responsibility for willful use of illegal uranium munitions- their own
"dirty bombs"- resulting in adverse health and environmental effects.
President Bush and Prime Minister Blair also should order:
1. medical care for all casualties,
2. thorough environmental remediation,
3. immediate cessation of retaliation against all of us who demand
compliance
with medical care and environmental remediation requirements,
4. and ban the future use of depleted uranium munitions.
