Cruise missiles with depleted uranium on Libya

Turin (Italy) | 7 July 2011
[Reposted in light of new scientific findings ascertaining NATO’s use of DU in Libya.]
The military support for the Benghazi rebellion against the Tripoli dictator is provided to the great detriment of the civilian population. Out of every 10 guided missiles, approximately one goes out of control and crashes in the targeted area at random. But all the missiles - regardless of whether the depleted uranium is in the warhead or in the wings for stabilization - contaminate the area. Thus, in the years to come these so-called "humanitarian" bombings will continue to kill countless numbers of civilians, affirms Professor Massimo Zucchetti.
