Has Barack Obama's Half-Brother Confirmed That Obama Was Raised As A Muslim?

A number of bloggers are claiming that Malik Obama, the half-brother of Barack Obama, has publicly confirmed that Barack Obama was raised as a Muslim.

The stunning photo posted below apparently shows Malik and Barack Obama in Muslim dress during a 1985 gathering. This would have been when Barack Obama would have been about 24 years old:



Malik Obama said in an interview that even though Barack was raised Muslim that he would still be a great president for the United States.

This comes at a time when the Obama campaign is trying to do whatever it can to deny that Obama was born a Muslim and raised a Muslim.

You can read more of this story at the Israel Insider website.

Former law professor and author Andy Martin, the author of the new book "Obama: The Man Behind the Mask", is one of the people who are absolutely adamant that Obama is lying about his past, and he says that he can prove it in a court of law:

"I challenge Senator Obama to sue me for defamation if he truly wants to perpetuate the myth that he had no ties to the Muslim religion. I will waive all of the traditional First Amendment defenses ("Public figure," "actual malice," etc.) and will interpose only one defense in support of my claims: truth".

You can read much more about Andy Martin's extraordinary claims regarding Obama in this article.

Senator John McCain - Genuine War Hero Or North Vietnamese Collaborator?

Counterpunch has a great article out about Senator John McCain that is entitled "John McCain: War Hero or North Vietnam's Go-To Collaborator?"

Each and every day it seems as though more people are learning the stunning truth about Senator John McCain. After you have read the above article, watch this short video on the truth about John McCain that is also highly informative:

Fox News Crosses The Line By Referring To Barack Obama's Wife, Michelle Obama, As "Obama's Baby Mama"

Fox News has gone way too far this time.

The photo posted below is a screenshot from Fox News.

It very clearly shows Fox News referring to Michelle Obama as "Obama's Baby Mama".

In what type of weird, bizarre universe would this ever be acceptable?

How can Fox News get away with using racist language like that to refer to the woman who could very well be the next First Lady of the United States?

It is definitely time for Fox News to be held accountable for their reckless actions. Barack Obama is a candidate for the presidency of the United States, and Fox News should not be using such inappropriate language:

The Shocking Photo Of The Hindu God That Presidential Candidate Barack Obama Carries Around For "Good Luck"

Beside this article is the photogrpah that is igniting a firestorm of controversy all over the internet. This picture is of presidential candidate Barack Obama displaying the items that he carries with him for good luck. These good luck charms include a bracelet that belonged to a soldier deployed in Iraq, a gambler’s lucky chit, a tiny Madonna and child, and most notably of all a small idol of a Hindu god.

The Hindu god that Obama carries with him has been circled in red. Some Hindu websites have been quick to point out that the Hindu god depicted is actually known as "Hanuman". The Hindustan Times is just one of the publications that are positively identifying this idol as Hanuman.

Barack Obama's father was a Kenyan and his mother was from Kansas, but Obama did spend a significant portion of his early life in Indonesia where Hinduism is a very popular religion. Some observers are speculating that is when he may have acquired this particular idol, but nobody really knows for certain.

Hanuman is one of the more important of the Hindu gods. There are many temples devoted to the worship of Hanuman, especially in India.

According to Hinduism, Hanuman represents pure devotion, complete surrender and the absence of ego. They believe that once one completely surrenders to the inner self and the mind becomes devoted completely, then the mind can obtain miraculous powers and perform amazing feats like those that Hanuman performs in the stories. Hindus also believe that all the planets in the solar system are under the control of Hanuman's large tail. In addition, it is thought by Hindus that whoever worships Hanuman is granted tremendous fortitude and strength.

But wait a minute, isn't Barack Obama supposed to be a Christian?

Apparently Obama must not be familiar with the 2nd of the Ten Commandments:

"Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image"

-Exodus 20:4

What in the world is a "Christian" presidential candidate doing running around using a Hindu god for "good luck"?

It is past time for someone to begin asking Senator Obama the hard questions.

But the reality is that the United States is so decadent now that most Christians probably won't even care about this.

John McCain's Ex-Wife Carol McCain - The Handicapped Wife That McCain Cheated On And Then Discarded For A Young, Rich New Wife

Most Americans don't seem to realize that presidential candidate John McCain had a wife before he married his current younger, incredibly rich wife.

Most Americans don't realize that McCain cheated on his handicapped first wife constantly when he came back from Vietnam, discarded her and ruthlessly divorced her, and then married his current younger, rich wife about a month later.

Is that the type of character we can afford to have in the White House?

There are many more reasons why John McCain is completely unfit to be the President of the United States. The link below is to a very informative article entitled "10 Things I'll Bet You Didn't Know About John McCain":

http://shatteredparadigm.blogspot.com/2008/05/10-things-ill-bet-you-did-not-know.html

Below is an excerpt from an excellent article by the Daily Mail on Carol McCain:

----

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/femail/article-1024927/The-wife-John-McCain-callously-left-behind.html

McCain likes to illustrate his moral fibre by referring to his five years as a prisoner-of-war in Vietnam. And to demonstrate his commitment to family values, the 71-year-old former US Navy pilot pays warm tribute to his beautiful blonde wife, Cindy, with whom he has four children.

But there is another Mrs McCain who casts a ghostly shadow over the Senator’s presidential campaign. She is seldom seen and rarely written about, despite being mother to McCain’s three eldest children.

And yet, had events turned out differently, it would be she, rather than Cindy, who would be vying to be First Lady. She is McCain’s first wife, Carol, who was a famous beauty and a successful swimwear model when they married in 1965.

She was the woman McCain dreamed of during his long incarceration and torture in Vietnam’s infamous ‘Hanoi Hilton’ prison and the woman who faithfully stayed at home looking after the children and waiting anxiously for news.

But when McCain returned to America in 1973 to a fanfare of publicity and a handshake from Richard Nixon, he discovered his wife had been disfigured in a terrible car crash three years earlier. Her car had skidded on icy roads into a telegraph pole on Christmas Eve, 1969. Her pelvis and one arm were shattered by the impact and she suffered massive internal injuries.

When Carol was discharged from hospital after six months of life-saving surgery, the prognosis was bleak. In order to save her legs, surgeons

had been forced to cut away huge sections of shattered bone, taking with it her tall, willowy figure. She was confined to a wheelchair and was forced to use a catheter.

Through sheer hard work, Carol learned to walk again. But when John McCain came home from Vietnam, she had gained a lot of weight and bore little resemblance to her old self.

Today, she stands at just 5ft4in and still walks awkwardly, with a pronounced limp. Her body is held together by screws and metal plates and, at 70, her face is worn by wrinkles that speak of decades of silent suffering.

For nearly 30 years, Carol has maintained a dignified silence about the accident, McCain and their divorce. But last week at the bungalow where she now lives at Virginia Beach, a faded seaside resort 200 miles south of Washington, she told The Mail on Sunday how McCain divorced her in 1980 and married Cindy, 18 years his junior and the heir to an Arizona brewing fortune, just one month later.

21 Year Old Black Man Tasered 9 Times In 14 Minutes By A White Police Officer AFTER Being Arrested And Handcuffed

Just when we thought we were making a shred of progress in America.....

Baron "Scooter" Pikes, a 21 year old black man in Winnfield, Louisiana, was tasered 9 times in 14 minutes by a white police officer in January AFTER he was arrested and handcuffed.

You can guess what happened next probably.

He DIED.

And if that wasn't bad enough, now it looks like there is a big cover-up taking place:

http://www.chicagotribune.com/news/chi-taser_witt-web-jul19,0,2201847.story

And even worse, it seems that Pikes did not do anything to deserve being tasered. An autopsy determined that there were no drugs in Pikes' system, and according to reports he did not resist arrest.

And when are we going to learn that a taser IS a lethal weapon.

Just google "taser deaths" and you can see for yourself.

How long are we going to allow our country to be this sick?

What are our police turning into?

It would be bad enough if this was an isolated case, but these types of stories are showing up now every day.

Please pray for America. We are decaying more with each passing day.

How Far Will The Republicans Go? SC State Senator Criticized For Blog Posting Equating Obama With Osama

How far are the Republicans willing to go to win the White House?

A Republican state senator from South Carolina is being severely criticized for a controversial post on his blog that shows photos of Barack Obama and Osama bin Laden wearing similar clothing, along with a line that says the difference between the two of them "is just a little B.S."

A picture of the photo is posted below:

No American Should Ever Vote For Any Candidate That Does Not Support An Immediate Ban On Torture And Depleted Uranium Weapons!

Have you decided who you are going to vote for yet?

Election 2008 is approaching very, very quickly. With the radical changes that have been made to our country and our world over the past few years, it is time for American voters to do some soul seraching and to really evaluate what these politicians stand for.

A really good place in evaluating the actions of our nation is to remember what the Golden Rule says:

Matthew 7:12

"So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you"

"Do to others".....have we forgotten even the most basic truths of our faith?

So you say that you are a Christian and you support the Iraq war and the use of torture.....

Let me ask you this question: Does this look "Christian" to you?:

http://www.antiwar.com/news/?articleid=2444

Are you still not convinced? Read the following and then tell me how we are doing the "right thing" by torturing people:

http://www.whatreallyhappened.com/torture.html

Listening to most of our political candidates advocate torture should make us all sick.

Well, what about the Iraq war itself?

Do you honestly think that Jesus would use depleted uranium weapons which kill and cripple our own troops and turn babies into freaks of nature?

I dare anyone to look at these pictures and then post in our comments section about how "moral" this war is:

http://www.jesus-is-savior.com/Evils%20in%20Government/depleted_uranium.htm

Also, go read this article and then explain to us how supporting this war and killing our own troops with depleted uranium is "supporting the troops".....

http://www.proliberty.com/observer/20030401.htm

You say that you will vote for a Democrat (even though they are for the war and DU weapons too). Don't EVEN get us started on abortion:

http://www.lifesitenews.com/abortiontypes/

Our nation is quickly going down the toilet, and each one of us needs to get down on our knees and repent.

There is only one God, and we must all turn to the Lord Jesus Christ or else the future of this nation looks really, really bleak.

It is time to wake up America.

Is It Possible That A Controversial Michelle Obama Video Will Destroy The Campaign Of Barack Obama And Give Hillary Clinton The Democratic Nomination?

Over the past couple months the internet has been buzzing with the rumor that a video exists that contains incredibly inflammatory comments by Michelle Obama, the wife of presidential candidate Barack Obama.

There are those that claim that the tape does not exist. Some other bloggers claim to have seen a transcript of it. Others are claiming that it is not anything to get excited about at all. While other bloggers are claiming that this will be one of the biggest political scandals of all time.

There are a couple of blogs with reports on this video that are especially worth noting:

----

http://hillbuzz.blogspot.com/

What's on the Michelle Obama Rant Tape?

Here's what's known so far:

The Michelle Obama Rant Tape was filmed between June 26th - July 1st 2004 in Chicago, IL at the Rainbow/PUSH Coalition Conference at Trinity United Church: specifically the Women's Event.

Michelle Obama appeared as a panelist alongside Mrs. Khadijah Farrakhan and Mrs. James Meeks.

Bill Clinton spoke during the Conference, as did Bill Cosby and other speakers, but not at the panel Michelle attended.

Michelle Obama spoke at the Women's Event, but referenced Bill Clinton in her rant --- his presence at the conference was the impetus for her raving, it seems.

For about 30 minutes, Michelle Obama launched into a rant about the evils of America, and how America is to blame for the problems of Africa. Michelle personally blamed President Clinton for the deaths of millions of Africans and said America is responsible for the genocide of the Tutsis and other ethnic groups. She then launched into an attack on "whitey", and talked about solutions to black on black crime in the realm of diverting those actions onto white America. Her rant was fueled by the crowd: they reacted strongly to what she said, so she got more passionate and enraged, and that's when she completely loses it and says things that have made the mouths drop of everyone who's seen this.

The "tape" is a DVD that Trinity United sold on its website, and possibly offered free for download up until March 2008 when Trinity's site was scrubbed and the DVDs were no longer offered for sale.

A Devastating Bombshell on Obama Will Be Dropped Tomorrow

John Fund of the Wall Street Journal was on Laura Ingraham’s show this morning, talking about the bombshell, according to our own No Quarter author Bud White.

Bob Beckel, Democratic analyst for Fox News, reported on TV already that a “bombshell” is coming out tomorrow.

Here are written reports to date (and I will ADD MORE as they come in) — and I am adding the DEVASTATING electoral college projections up at HillBuzz that further underscore Obama’s unelectability. Obama is toast.

John Fund, Wall Street Journal:

“Indeed, rumors are swirling on the campaign trail that a new video will soon surface featuring Mrs. Obama appearing on a panel with radical speakers during which she makes more controversial statements.”

Bob Beckel on Fox News, via HillBuzz blog:

He has been told by numerous people,(enough and in a way that convinced him) that a bombshell will be dropping tomorrow about Michele Obama.

The Friends turned white and asked what it might be…was it worse than a college thesis? Bob said—Oh yes, in a BIG way. He said that the Repubs were behind it and it was dumb because it meant that Mrs. Clinton would be the nominee. …

READ THAT ONE AGAIN: “it meant that Mrs. Clinton would be the nominee …”

(The rest of the article can be referenced at the link above)

----

And it is not just the internet that is full of rumors regarding a possible Michelle Obama racist bombshell video.

The mainstream media itself has reported on this rumor, and there are analysts on these newscasts who are CONVINCED that this video exists.

Some of these analysts believe that the Republicans have it in their hands, and that they are going to wait until August or September to release it. If they released such a video now, Hillary Clinton would get the nomination and all the video would do is ruin Obama. If they wait, Obama will get the nomination, and a bombshell of this magnitude will destroy his campaign and will ensure that McCain wins in the fall.

In any event, the mainstream news is now openly acknowledging these rumors:

Is American REALLY Running Out Of Oil? No Way! Montana Is Sitting On 40 Billion Barrels Of Oil According To Their Own Governor

Is American running out of oil?

We have been told over and over and over by the media that the world is running out of oil.

Is that really true?

Well, according to the governor of Montana, that state alone is sitting on 40 BILLION barrels of oil.

So what is really going on with these crazy oil prices?

Rumors Swirl Of SuperDelegates Switching To Hillary As Obama Calls For A Domestic Secret Police Force As Big As The U.S. Military

Rumors have been swirling all over the internet over the past 48 hours that 8 superdelegates have switched their allegiance to Hillary Clinton:

http://noquarterusa.net/blog/2008/07/15/breaking-obama-superds-switching-to-hillary/

Meanwhile, Barack Obama is shockingly calling for a domestic secret police force as large as the U.S. military:

"We cannot continue to rely on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

The U.S. Government Is Hiring Informants To Spy On Protestors, Anti-War Clubs & Liberal Groups In Preparation For The Republican National Convention

What is happening to our nation?

Where have our freedoms gone?

Do we actually live in East Germany now?

A very courageous newspaper out of Minnesota has reported that the FBI is actually hiring informants to spy on protestors, anti-war organizations & liberal groups in preparation for the Republican National Convention.

Can this be true? Since when does our government infiltrate groups that are doing nothing but exercising their constitutionally guaranteed right to free speech?

If we are to belive the article, apparently it has been going on for quite a while.

What is our society coming to?

Can we turn this around before it is too late?

The Bush Family Gets Even More Liberal: Jenna Bush Offers Use Of The Bush Crawford Ranch To Ellen DeGeneres For Her Lesbian Wedding

I wonder what "conservative Christians" who backed Bush think about this one.

Does anyone still think that the Bush family is conservative?

President Bush has openly opposed true conservatives on just about every single issue during his presidency.

And if that wasn't bad enough, his daughter is schmoozing with far left liberals like Ellen DeGeneres and offering up use of the family ranch for her lesbian wedding.

Were we not led to believe that the Bushes are supposed to be AGAINST gay marriage?

An Arizona Professor PROVES That John McCain Is NOT A Natural-Born Citizen And Is Therefore Not Eligible To Run For President

An Arizona professor has proven that John McCain is not a natural-born citizen and is therefore not eligible to run for president of the United States.

Here are the facts:

-A 1937 law which granted citizenship to children of U.S. parents in the Panama Canal Zone came too late to apply to McCain, who already had been born.

-The new law made McCain a citizen just before his first birthday.

-Thus it is an indisputable fact that John McCain is not a natural-born citizen and is therefore not eligible to run for president.

The professor who discovered this, professor Gabriel Chin, stated: "It's preposterous that a technicality like this can make a difference in an advanced democracy," but he added, "But this is the constitutional text that we have."

Barack Obama's Cousin, Raila Odinga, Is A Communist Muslim Who Planned To Implement Sharia Law In Kenya If He Was Elected

Raila Odinga, the Communist Muslim who planned to implement Sharia Law in Kenya if he was elected, and whose supporters went on a murderous rampage when he lost, has confirmed that he is the cousin of U.S. presidential candidate Barack Obama:

http://www.nysun.com/foreign/obama-is-my-cousin-odinga-says/69189/

Barack Obama supported his cousin Odinga in the Kenyan election held last December. Additionally, wealthy Arabs backed him with certain conditions attached. Odinga had agreed that if he was elected, he would institute Sharia law within six months. When Odinga lost, he cried election fraud, and civil war broke out. Muslims committed atrocities against Christians, locking some Christians in churches and burning them to the ground.

Odinga's plan was to have the Luo tribe, mostly made up of Muslims, take over Kenya from the Kikuyu, and bring the country under Sharia law, kick out all the Western investors in the nation that had made it one of the most stable nations in Africa, and supplant those Western investors with wealthy Arab investors. However, Odinga lost the election. Then Odinga claimed election fraud, and unleashed his Luo Islamofascists into the streets of Nairobi to “protest” by murdering, raping and maiming Kikuyu people, including the burning alive of a church full of innocent Christians.

When Obama visited Kenya in August of 2006, he was hosted by his cousin Raila and spoke glowingly of him at a number of rallies in Nairobi. Obama’s support for his cousin was so blatant that a Kenyan government official denounced Obama during his visit as Raila’s "stooge".

When Odinga lost the presidential election to Mwai Kibaki, he claimed the vote was rigged, and his Islamic followers went on murderous rampages, such as in the town of Eldoret, where on New Year's Day dozens of innocent Christians were burned to death in a church.

The Islamic world desperately wanted Raila to win.

The Evangelical Alliance of Kenya bravely posted on its website a photograph copy of a Memorandum of Understanding, dated and signed on August 29, 2007, between Raila Odinga and Shiekh Abdullah Abdi, chairman of the National Muslim Leaders Forum of Kenya.

You can see that agreement here:

http://eakenya.org/newsevents/article.htm?id=8

The following are some of the key points from that agreement:

* It pledged the support of Kenyan Muslims for Raila’s election. In return, as President of Kenya, Raila agreed to 14 actions.....

* Within 6 months he was to rewrite the Constitution of Kenya to recognize Sharia Law as the only true law sanctioned by the Holy Quran for Muslim declared regions.

* Within one year he was to facilitate the establishment of a Sharia court in EVERY Kenyan divisional headquarters.

* He was to popularize Islam, the only "true religion" by ordering every primary school in Kenya to conduct daily Madrassa classes.

* He was to impose a total ban on open air gospel crusades by Christians.

* He was to outlaw all gospel programs on KBC, the National Broadcaster.

* He was to impose a total ban on the public consumption of alcoholic beverages.

* He was to impose an immediate ban on women’s public dressing styles that are considered immoral and offensive to the Muslim faith.

Remember, this is Obama's COUSIN that he openly campaigned for and supported enthusiastically.

Are you upset yet?

Is Bill Clinton Secretly Lobbying For Hillary To Be Barack Obama's Choice For Vice President?

As Time magazine first reported, the friends and associates of the Clintons are buzzing with rumors that Bill Clinton is secretly pushing for Hillary to be Obama's choice for Vice President.

There is more and more information coming out that Bill Clinton is determined that since Hillary did not win the nomination that she should at least get the number 2 spot.

This prospect has many Democratic operatives excited, as they see it as a great opportunity for the Democratic party to reunify itself.

Depleted Uranium Holocaust - We Are Fighting Our Wars With Nuclear Waste And It Is Killing Our Own Troops And Deforming Their Babies

When are both political parties and the American people as a whole going to wake up and realize what a holocaust we have caused by our reckless warfare?

Most Americans still do not seem to realize that we are using thousands upon thousands of tons of nuclear waste ("depleted uranium") to fight our wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

Most Americans still do not seem to know that thousands upon thousands of our troops are getting sick and dying from exposure to DU.

Most Americans still do not seem to understand that the thousands of tons of DU that we have dumped over there have a half-life of 4.5 BILLION years.

So we have essentially contaminated Iraq and Afghanistan FOREVER.

When a woman has a baby in Iraq now, they no longer ask if it is a boy or a girl. They ask: "Is it normal?"

DU poisoning even gets passed from our soldiers to their wives during sex, and this has resulted in tragic cases of deformity in the children of our own soldiers:

http://www.envirosagainstwar.org/know/read.php?itemid=3411

We would also commend the following article to you that explains extensively how we are in reality nuking our own troops:

Death By Slow Burn:How America Nukes Its Own Troops

http://www.proliberty.com/observer/20030401.htm

What “Support Our Troops” really means

by Amy Worthington

On March 30, an AP photo featured an American pro-war activist holding a sign: “Nuke the evil scum, it worked in 1945!”

That's exactly what George Bush has done.

America's mega billion dollar war in Iraq is indeed a NUCLEAR WAR.

Bush-Cheney have delivered upon 17 million Iraqis tons of depleted uranium (DU) weapons, a “liberation” gift that will keep on giving.

Depleted uranium is a component of toxic nuclear waste, usually stored at secure sites. Handlers need radiation protection gear.

Over a decade ago, war-makers decided to incorporate this lethal waste into much of the Pentagon's weaponry.

Navy ships carrying Phalanx rapid fire guns are capable of firing thousands of DU rounds per minute. Tomahawk missiles launched from U.S. ships and subs are DU-tipped. The M1 Abrams tanks are armored with DU. These and British Challenger II tanks are tightly packed with DU shells, which continually irradiate troops in or near them. The A-10 “tank buster” aircraft fires DU shells at machines and people on the battlefield.

DU munitions are classified by a United Nations resolution as illegal weapons of mass destruction. Their use breaches all international laws, treaties and conventions forbidding poisoned weapons calculated to cause unnecessary suffering.

Support our troops

Ironically, support for our troops will extend well beyond the war in Iraq. Americans will be supporting Gulf War II veterans for years as they slowly and painfully succumb to radiation poisoning.

U.S and British troops deployed to the area are the walking dead. Humans and animals, friends and foes in the fallout zone are destined to a long downhill spiral of chronic illness and disability.

Kidney dysfunction, lung damage, bloody stools, extreme fatigue, joint pain, unsteady gait, memory loss and rashes and, ultimately, cancer and premature death await those exposed to DU.

Award-winning journalist Will Thomas wrote: “As the last Gulf conflict so savagely demonstrated, GI immune systems reeling from multiple doses of experimental vaccines offer little defense against further exposure to chemical weapons, industrial toxins, stress, caffeine, insect repellent and radiation left over from the last war. This is a war even the victors will lose.”

When a DU shell is fired, it ignites upon impact. Uranium, plus traces of plutonium and americium, vaporize into tiny, ceramic particles of radioactive dust. Once inhaled, uranium oxides lodge in the body and emit radiation indefinitely.

A single particle of DU lodged in a lymph node can devastate the entire immune system according to British radiation expert Roger Coghill. The Royal Society of England published data showing that battlefield soldiers who inhale or swallow high levels of DU can suffer kidney failure within days. Any soldier now in Iraq who has not inhaled lethal radioactive dust is not breathing.

In the first two weeks of combat, 700 Tomahawks, at a cost of $1.3 million each, blasted Iraqi real estate into radioactive mushroom clouds. Millions of DU tank rounds liter the terrain. Cleanup is impossible because there is no place on the planet to put so much contaminated debris.

Bush Sr.'s Gulf War I was also a nuclear war. 320 tons of depleted uranium were used against Iraq in 1991.

A 1998 report by the U.S. Agency for Toxic Substances confirms that inhaling DU causes symptoms identical to those claimed by many sick vets with Gulf War Syndrome.

The Gulf War Veterans Association reports that at least 300,000 Gulf War I vets have now developed incapacitating illnesses. To date, 209,000 vets have filed claims for disability benefits based on service-connected injuries and illnesses from combat in that war.

Dr. Asaf Durakovic, a professor of nuclear medicine at Georgetown University, is a former army medical expert. He told nuclear scientists in Paris last year that tens of thousands of sick British and American soldiers are now dying from radiation they encountered during Gulf War I. He found that 62 percent of sick vets tested have uranium isotopes in their organs, bones, brains and urine. Laboratories in Switzerland and Finland corroborated his findings.

In other studies, some sick vets were found to be expressing uranium in even their semen. Their sexual partners often complained of a burning sensation during intercourse, followed by their own debilitating illnesses.

Nothing compares to the astronomical cancer rates and birth defects suffered by the Iraqi people who have endured vicious nuclear chastisement for years. U.S. air attacks against Iraq since 1993 have undoubtedly employed nuclear munitions.

Pictures of grotesquely deformed Iraqi infants born since 1991 are overwhelming. Like those born to Gulf War I vets, many babies born to troops now in Iraq will also be afflicted with hideous deformities, neurological damage and/or blood and respiratory disorders.

Army health physicist Dr. Doug Rokke was dispatched to the Middle East to salvage DU-contaminated tanks after Gulf War I. His Geiger counters revealed that the war zones of Iraq and Kuwait were contaminated with up to 300 millirems an hour in beta and gamma radiation plus thousands to millions of counts per minute in alpha radiation. Rokke recently told the media: “The whole area is still trashed. It is hotter than heck over there still. This stuff doesn't go away.”

DU remains “hot” for 4.5 billion years. Radiation expert Dr. Helen Caldicott confirms that the dust-laden winds of DU-contaminated war zones “will remain effectively radioactive for the rest of time.” The murderous dust storms which ensnared coalition troops during the first few days of the current invasion will have significant health consequences. Rokke and his clean-up team were issued only flimsy dust masks for their dangerous work.

Of the 100 people on Rokke's decontamination team, 30 have already “dropped dead.” Rokke himself is ill with radiation damage to lungs and kidneys. He has brain lesions, skin pustules, chronic fatigue, continual wheezing and painful fibromyalgia. Rokke warns that anyone exposed to DU should have adequate respiratory protection and special coveralls to protect their clothing because, he says, you can't get uranium particles off your clothing.

You can learn much more about the horrors of DU by watching the film "Beyond Treason". Posted below is the trailer for the film:
