Iraq: All modern wars are NUCLEAR wars

Even if, like me, you put 9 of 10 signature lists aside, please join

this protest letter in support of an article by prominent  and world famous

medical expert, Helen Caldicott, MD. Here she explains in scientific terms

the radioactive legacy that will be left for our children - lasting forever.

 

Today we are at a point of imbalance in the world and are moving toward

what may be the beginning of a THIRD WORLD WAR.  War is obsolete -

we must stop it for even the "winners" will be the losers for all time.

 

We can make a difference. If you are for peace, the

UN is gathering signatures in an effort to avoid a tragic world event.

PLEASE COPY (rather than Forward) this e-mail in a new message, sign

at the end of the list, and send it to all the people whom you know.

 

Helen Caldicott, October 6, 2002

(Editorial published in the Baltimore Sun) NEW YORK

 

-- As the Bush administration prepares to make war on the Iraqi

people -- for it is the civilian population of that country and not Saddam

Hussein who will bear the brunt of the hostilities -- it is important that

we recall the medical consequences of the last Persian Gulf war. It was, in

effect, a nuclear war.

 

By the end of that 1991 conflict, the United States

left between 300 and 800 tons of depleted uranium 238 in anti-tank shells

and other explosives on the battlefields of Iraq, Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.

The term "depleted" refers to the removal of the fissionable element uranium

235 through a process that ironically is called "enrichment." What remains,

uranium 238, is 1.7 times more dense than lead. When incorporated into an

anti-tank shell and fired, it achieves great momentum, cutting through tank

armor like a hot knife through butter.

 

What other properties does uranium

238 possess? First, it is pyrophoric. When it hits a tank at high speed, it

bursts into flames, producing aerosolized particles less than 5 microns in

diameter,making them easy to inhale into the terminal air passages of the

lung. Second, it is a potent radioactive carcinogen,emitting a relatively

heavy alpha particle composed of two protons and two neutrons. Once inside

the body -- either in the lung if it has been inhaled, in a wound if it

penetrates flesh, or ingested since it concentrates in the food chain and

contaminates water-- it can produce cancer in the lungs, bones, blood or

kidneys. Third, it has a half-life of 4.5 billion= years, meaning the areas

in which this ammunition was used in Iraq and Kuwait will remain effectively

radioactive for the rest of time. Children are 10 to 20 times more sensitive

to then effects of radiation than adults.

 

My fellow pediatricians in the

Iraqi city of Basra, for example, report an increase of six to 12 times in

the incidence of childhood leukemia and cancer. Yet because of the sanctions

imposed on Iraq by the United States and the United Nations, they have no

access to antibiotics, chemotherapeutic drugs or effective radiation

machines to treat their patients. The incidence of congenital malformations

has doubled in the exposed populations in Iraq where these weapons were

used. Among them are babies being born with only one eye and with an

encephaly -- the absence of a brain.

 

However, the medical consequences of

the use of uranium 238 almost certainly did not affect only Iraqis. Some

American veterans exposed to it are reported, by at least one medical

researcher, to be excreting uranium in their urine a decade later. Other

reports indicate it is being excreted in their semen. That nearly one-third

of the American tanks used in Desert Storm were made of uranium 238 is

another story, for their crews were exposed to whole body gamma radiation.

What might be the long-term consequences of such exposure has not,

apparently, been studied.

 

Would these effects have surprised U.S.

authorities? No, for incredible as it may seem, the American military's own

studies prior to Desert Storm warned that aerosol uranium exposure under

battlefield conditions could lead to cancers of the lung and bone, kidney

damage, non-malignant lung disease, neurocognitive disorders, chromosomal

damage and birth defects.

 

Do President Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney,

Deputy>Defense Secretary Paul Wolfowitz, National Security Adviser

Condoleezza Rice and Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld understand the

medical consequences of the 1991 war and the likely health effects of the

next one they are planning? If they don't, their ignorance is breathtaking.

Even more incredible, though, and much more likely, is that they do

understand but don't care.

 

Helen Caldicott, MD, founder and president of the

Nuclear Policy Research Institute, has devoted 25 years to an international

campaign to educate the public about the medical hazards of the nuclear age.

Her most recent book is The New Nuclear Danger: George W. Bush's

Military-Industrial Complex (The New Press, 2002).
