DU - this may be the straw that breaks the Bushcamel's back

One can only hope. It's too bad that people aren't willing to withdraw on the basis of the horrors that are being visited upon the Iraqi people. And it's too bad they haven't been willing to heed the warnings of those who have been saying that soldiers who manage to survive their tours in Iraq will come back home to die of radiation poisoning. But maybe now that it's happening, their war support will falter. That is, if they hear about it.

Washington's insistence that depleted uranium (DU) munitions are not toxic has been undermined by revelations that four U.S. soldiers recently home from Iraq are suffering from radiation poisoning.
