    An international report: the impact of depleted uranium used by the U.S. in Iraq a hundred times more than Chernobyl


    06-03-2013 | (Voice of Iraq) - Add a comment -
    Term Press / Baghdad

    Unfold
    day after day the disastrous effects caused by the war on the Iraqi man
    and his environment, and most of those resulting from the use of U.S.
    troops and allied depleted uranium weapons against military and civilian
    targets on a large scale, particularly in the areas of southern and
    central Iraq, which is its ability group Dutch about 400 tons confirmed

    The
    impact was a hundred times more than those caused by the radiation leak
    disaster of the reactor, "Chernobyl" time of the former Soviet Union,
    pointing out that what aggravates the risk of radioactive weapons is the
    weakness of Iraq's ability to deal with them and the failure of
    international, especially American and British in this regard.

    And
    reveals a report prepared by (Pace sunset) or a peace Dutch, on
    Wednesday, about "the effects of the use of weapons of depleted uranium
    in Iraq in the wars of 1991 and 2003", and seen by (long-Presse) that
    "danger more a hundred times the impact of an incident Chernobyl, and
    that Iraq needs to about $ 30 million to clean up more than 300
    contaminated sites. "

    According to the report which will be
    published on Thursday, and got (range Press), a copy of which, the
    "Mkhmnin claim that what used weapons of depleted uranium in Iraq was a
    genocide lacked scientific bases," stressing that "health concerns of
    Iraqi civilians are real fears and must be seriously taken into account.
    "

    The incident reactor city of Chernobyl in the Ukraine, which
    occurred in (the 26 of April 1986), the worst disaster radioactive
    leakage and environmental pollution witnessed human so far, where the
    United Nations estimated the number of people killed because of four
    thousand people, and said the Ukrainian authorities then, that the
    number of victims of eight Thousands of people, but international
    organizations questioned the figures and predicted the death of between
    ten thousand and more than ninety thousand people as a result of thyroid
    cancer deadly.

    And describes the Dutch Group, in its report,
    which was funded by the Norwegian Foreign Ministry, said that "Iraq
    needs $ 30 million at the very least to clean more than 300 sites still
    contaminated Bahaaat uranium," noting that although "make some clean-up
    operations, many of the still contaminated sites as well as the presence
    of contaminated areas unexplored until now. "

    The movement of
    the group in its report, an Iraqi official at the center of radiation
    protection, saying that "the process of removing the effects of
    pollution from each cost between 100 and 150 thousand dollars, which
    made the cost of that process between 30 to 45 million dollars."

    The
    group warns in the report, "The spread of depleted uranium
    contamination through the poor who trade or dealing with scrap pieces of
    debris or equipment devastating military sites, including children."

    The
    report set (Pace Group) Peace Dutch, that "the Iraqi government does
    not have the resources for dealing with this issue as well as not being
    able to extend its control to reduce trading operations scrap
    contaminated handles children also put them at risk."

    The
    quantity of ammunition containing depleted uranium, which launched
    fighter jets and tanks in the wars in Iraq in 1991 and 2003 up to 400
    tons, and organization says in its report that it fired mostly by U.S.
    forces, while the government said the United Kingdom, the British troops
    "fired less than three tonnes of This ammunition. "

    According to
    the report, that "the use of depleted uranium in populated areas is
    alarming," expected to "be detected a lot of other sites nation affected
    by radioactive contamination."

    The report is based on data on
    the "three expeditions organized by the group to Iraq between 2011 and
    2012, and the information center of radiation protection of the Iraqi
    government, where select between 300 to 365 sites polluted by 2006,
    mostly located in the province of Basra, (is based, 590 km south of
    Baghdad). "

    And secured a peace ", its" documented evidence
    confirms that ammunition and bombs containing depleted uranium fired
    during the war on wheels and small buildings and civil institutions,
    including building the Iraqi Planning Ministry in the capital Baghdad,
    "usually it" reinforces suspicions reassurances officials who said they
    targeted wheels Armored only to those weapons. "

    The author of
    the report criticizes, Wim Zojnnberg, United States, for "failing to
    identify areas launched by the depleted uranium ammunition."

    He
    says Zojnnberg, "I do not know exactly yet how many sites that may be
    contaminated or the risks faced by civilians," noting that "you do not
    specify these places reinforces the fear of the possibility of
    contamination with depleted uranium among Iraqi civilians on a large
    scale and reduce the risk of the effects of These weapons need of
    international aid. "

    And depleted uranium is a radioactive toxic
    material, in the form of a solid heavy metal produced from the remnants
    of the nuclear power industry and is used in weapons of its high
    hardness, which can penetrate armor. But lead to pollution of the
    environment by radiation causes many diseases among the civilian
    population. Iraqi doctors were confirmed increased incidence of cancer
    and birth defects, where WHO is conducting an investigation of this
    matter with the Iraqi Ministry of Health.

    This is the latest in a
    series proposed for research linking the bombing and the high rate of
    birth defects, has this study found that more than half of the children
    in Fallujah, (62 km west of Baghdad), of respondents of the survey
    between the years 2007 to 2010, were affected by congenital defect that
    is also one of six pregnancies has suffered a miscarriage in the same
    previous period.

    The British newspaper The Independent published
    in the (14-October 2012 the past), a report includes a recent study on
    the city of Fallujah, also included children in the city of Basra, which
    was attacked by British forces in 2003 and showed that there are more
    than (20) out of every thousand were born with birth defects, according
    to the words of a hospital maternity in Basra in 2003, which is higher b
    (17) times what it was a decade ago, but during the past seven years,
    the number of children who are born deformed is 60% where now generates
    seven children Total thousand defects.

    Tests revealed that
    conducted the study that the percentage of lead in the hair of children
    maimed in Fallujah top five times for the rest of normal children as the
    percentage of mercury six times higher in children maimed in Basra The
    study also found that the percentage of lead in their teeth three times
    higher for children in areas not contaminated.

    Scientists
    estimate and specialists that the half-life of uranium about four and a
    half billion years, and even loses its ability to radiation needs to be
    (10) half of any age around (40) billion years.

    This means that
    the areas bombed such weapons in Iraq (central and southern regions
    private), will remain contaminated for very long, and that their effects
    and negative impact on humans and the environment and animal will
    increase continuously with the passage of time unless special procedures
    bury and bridging these radioactive materials and objectives that hit
    (which What had started before the occupation of Iraq by the Iraqi
    government in collaboration of the World Health Organization and the
    Atomic Energy Organization and other international destinations) through
    special committees formed for this purpose.
