The article by C. A. Hilgartner seems to exaggerate the dangers of
Depleted Uranium. Below you can find links to reports about Depleted
Uranium. It would be useful to consult these, when discussing this
issue. (You might want to forward these links to your distribution
list.)

Comments and common reflection about tragedy in Iraq should be supplemented by:

1) moral responsibility of a group of experts and decision-makers for
long-term risk of high incidence of brain tumors (cancer) in result
of use of very strong source of electromagnetic field by US army for
disruption of Iraqi TV station in Bagdad (without effect on function
of TV but with real exposition of a lot of people in this region)!

2) formal responsibility of American decision-makers for luck of
protection of the top quality World Culture Heritage in the
Archeological Museum in Bagdad giving a chance for well-organised
robbery of unique pieces of ancient fine arts and documents of early
development of the civilization of the Mankind !
