Nuclear Weapons were used on Iraq in a “Parade of Horribles”
I summarize the events after the war in Iraq. Did you know we left Iraq in a condition that will cause the highest level of birth rates in human history for the next 1 million generations? Yes, One million.

Another way of saying the above quote is “Do not point your finger lest three fingers can be pointed back at you”. This fits well for the creation of nuclear weapons. It is not about whether or not they get used, It is about the fact that these weapons exist. It is also about the psyche of any population just knowing these nuclear weapons could go off at any second. I know we were taught to believe nuclear weapons are controlled by a button but we fired depleted Uranium out of tanks in Iraq defying International Law. The CIA’s top weapons inspector in Iraq said that the hunt for weapons of mass destruction has gone “as far as feasible” and had found nothing. *up

Not only had the decisions of our leaders resulted in two million Iraqi men, women, and children dead, but they also left U.S. soldiers sick in the process. We used weapons of mass destruction in the name of removing them from Saddam Hussein. Four out of nine soldiers coming home from Iraq had depleted Uranium contamination. depleted Uranium weapons were first given by the US to Israel for use under US supervision in the 1973 Sinai war against the Arabs. Since then the US has tested, manufactured, and sold depleted Uranium weapons systems to 29 countries, although these weapons were not used until 1991 in Iraq and Kuwait. The World Health Organization refused to report on the aftermath of this saying “Completely Unfounded”. Keith Baverstock who worked as a radiation expert for the federation tried to report this fact and was stopped suspecting that WHO was leaned on by a more powerful pro-nuclear UN body, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). *upload 3
Though the Persian Gulf War was initially considered an unqualified success for the international coalition, conflict in the troubled region led to a second Gulf War–known as the Iraq War–that began in 2003. An “unqualified success” in government terms is just to leave it open for future invasion with “approval” from the taxpayers. A couple of questions we should be asking are 1. “Why send American troops back to a country we just recently contaminated with nuclear chemicals”? 2. Why are we using a substance that could affect any soldiers in war simply because it is inexpensive? 3. America knew they would win, so why use something deadly in the first place?

In the 1970s, the U.S. Department of Defense (DOD) began making bullets and mortar shells out of DU given its high density. DU was also used to create armor for tanks and as weights to balance aircraft. The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) was operating facilities that produced DU as a waste byproduct, making DU plentiful and inexpensive. Britain and the US were planning to take action against Saddam Hussein without a second UN resolution. Five months before the invasion of Iraq, a newly released letter from Tony Blair’s office shows the two meeting at the Bush ranch to plan. According to United Nations estimates, the US fired up to 2,000 metric tons of DU at targets in Iraq in 2003 alone. The US also used the weapon against Iraq in 1991 during Operation Desert Storm. The United States had its ‘Embedded’ media, so only what fit the bill could be recorded. *upload 4

We have to remember that all our organizations have been customized to fit for profit over human lives. This not-so-depleted Uranium is bad for humans and the Iraqis that still live there are left to deal with such a high rate of birth defects having a baby is not an option. After the war, anyone who could leave the area did including doctors. The doctors that were left have long voiced concerns about the problem. A 2013 study by Dutch peace group IKV Pax Christi found more than 300 such sites previously identified by the Iraqi government as contaminated with DU, and the US spent between $30 million and $45 million on cleanup at the sites. However, even as late as the 2013 study, observers still saw children playing on the waste heaps and collecting scraps for sale. *upload 5
It is easy not to think about the suffering of other people from the comfort of your own homes.
Environmental scientists who uncovered the figures through freedom of information laws say it is evidence that depleted Uranium from the shells was carried by wind currents to Britain. The American and British governments say depleted Uranium is relatively harmless. The Royal Society, the UK’s Academy of Science, has also said the risk from depleted Uranium is “very low” for soldiers and people in a conflict zone. United Kingdom's words are contradicted by the actual outcome. Described as the Trojan Horse of nuclear war, depleted Uranium is the weapon that keeps killing. The half-life of Uranium-238 is 4.5 billion years, the age of the earth. And, as Uranium-238 decays into daughter radioactive products, in four steps before turning into lead, it continues to release more radiation at each step. *upload 6
“Once a depleted uranium round strikes its target, the projectile begins to burn on impact, creating tiny radioactive particles” Common Dreams explained. “Winds can transport this radioactive dust many miles, potentially contaminating the air that innocent humans breathe. This inhalation may cause lung cancer, kidney damage, cancers of bones and skin, as well as birth defects and chemical poisoning.” German physician Professor Dr. Günther was the first in the world, to bring forward proof that depleted Uranium weapons (bullets, shells, and bombs) are nuclear weapons. In the early 90s, inside his diplomats’ luggage, he managed to bring in some of these DU ballistics from Iraq and arranged their investigation at three research institutes in Germany, which confirmed his suspicions that NATO had used nuclear weapons in the Gulf War! The name of the mission was 'Iraqi Freedom', did we free Iraqis though or did we poison them?
As of today, Iraq has started a lawsuit against America for war crimes.
I say it is no coincidence that a year after Desert Storm in 2004 Iraq got its first central bank. *upload 7 & 8
“The use of depleted uranium weaponry by the United States, defying all international treaties, will slowly annihilate all species on earth including the human species, and yet this country continues to do so with full knowledge of its destructive potential”.

On Feb. 15, 2003, millions of people marched in over 600 cities against the plans of U.S. President George W. Bush to invade Iraq, in Rome alone, 3 million people took part in the protest. But weeks later, the invasion of Iraq began. *upload 10
Project for a New American Century, a think tank consisting of war-mongering neo-cons wrote up what they thought would be an excellent approach to steer the future of our country. A detailed to-do list to keep us the superpower that we are. Enemies or not we are all under the same ionosphere where free radicals and particles live and interact generally affecting the whole population. PNAC hired extra men to study nuclear strategic doctrines, missile defense, military modernization, and defense planning for theatre wars. Theater wars is the same as war itself but the ego of America loves to use sugar to make the medicine go down. Some other players from the Bush admin. were Dick Chenny, Dov Zakheim, and Paul Wolfawitz, and Colin Powell. *upload 11
Donald Rumsfeld who was the Secretary of Defense at the time sent President Bush a secret memo containing what is known as the “Parade of Horribles” which contained 29 possible scenarios that could prevent the war from starting. The list was very meticulous and had every angle covered. Rumsfeld had a lot to gain with a war that started with a total of 7 billion in federal contracts that he received through his company Haliburton. (link to child trafficking through Halliburton in future) . A few off the list are below.
3. US could fail to restrain Israel, and, if Israel entered the conflict, it could broaden into a Middle East war.
8. While preoccupied with Iraq, the US might feel compelled to ignore serious proliferation or other machinations by North Korea, Russia, PRC, Pakistan, India, etc., and thereby seem to tacitly approve and acquiesce in unacceptable behavior, to the detriment of US influence in the world.
11. Iraqi intelligence services, which have a global presence, including in the US, could strike the US, our allies, and/or deploy forces in unconventional ways.
13. The US could fail to find WMD on the ground in Iraq and be unpersuasive to the world.
14. There could be higher-than-expected collateral damage—Iraqi civilian deaths.
18. The dollar cost of the effort could prove to be greater than expected and the contributions from other nations minimal.
21. US focus on Iraq could weaken our effort in the Global War on Terrorism, leading to terrorist attacks against the US or Europe, including a WMD attack in the US that theoretically might have been avoided.
25. The US will learn, to our surprise, a number of the “unknown unknowns,” the gaps in our intelligence knowledge, for example, Iraqi WMD programs could be several years more advanced than we assessed; Iraqi capabilities of which we were unaware may exist, such as UAVs, jamming, cyber attacks, etc.; others one might imagine! *upload 12
We should be questioning human nature on why it would create something to wipe itself out of existence. Lust for power and dominance is a bitter line to walk if not used in moderation.
