Dubya's Iraq War has been a long drawn out campaign, <a href="http://benfrank.net/patriots/images/iraq/toxic_sandstorm"><img class="r" src="http://benfrank.net/patriots/files/images/toxic_sandstorm_0.thumbnail.jpg"></a>with troops on the ground exposed to DU dust repeatedly. Over 800,000 soldiers have rotated through Iraq, how many have been in close proximity to exploded ordnance and it's .1 micron DU Dust.</p> <p>The Army's DU clean-up specialist quit to become a whistleblower, <a href="http://radio.indymedia.org/uploads/rokke-depleted_uranium-k19b.mp3">Dr. Doug Rokke on DU</a> - mp3</p> <p>11,000 young soldiers died, soldiers that were not injured in combat. This time around it could be much, much worse... if we care about our troops, shouldn't we get every soldier tested for Depleted Uranium? Our Congress won't do this- because the results might be scary- that's the only reason not to test, because they don't want to know the answer. IMHO, this means our Congress is betraying the troops and their families.</p> <p>other DU pics</p> <p><a href="http://benfrank.net/nuke/images8/img005.jpeg.html"><img class="l" src="http://benfrank.net/nuke/images8/img005.jpeg.small.jpeg"></a> .. <a href="http://benfrank.net/nuke/dk/t-shirts/img012.jpeg.html"><img title="t-shirt / flyer" class="r" src="http://benfrank.net/nuke/dk/t-shirts/img012.jpeg.small.jpeg"></a></p> Troops Sun, 23 Jul 2006 14:57:35 -0400 http://benfrank.net/patriots/images/troops/counting_on_us <a href="images/troops/counting_on_us"><center><span class="image-thumbnail"><img src="http://benfrank.net/patriots/files/images/bringthemhome.thumbnail.jpg" alt="The Troops are counting on US" title="The Troops are counting on US" width="116" height="200" /></span></center> </a><br /> Troops Sun, 04 Jun 2006 17:34:49 -0400 http://benfrank.net/patriots/images/troops/bush_says_more_sacrifice <a href="images/troops/bush_says_more_sacrifice"><center><span class="image-thumbnail"><img src="http://benfrank.net/patriots/files/images/bell-more_sacrifice.thumbnail.jpg" alt="Bush says more sacrifice will be required" title="Bush says more sacrifice will be required" width="150" height="111" /></span></center> </a><br /> Troops Wed, 15 Feb 2006 21:07:45 -0500
