UN First Committee Passes DU Resolution in Landslide Vote
UN's DU-resolution+ICBUW+Dr. Moret - 06.11.2007 09:16

Volgens de stemming over een Verenigde Naties resolutie tégen het gebruik van DU, met uranium verrijkte ammunitie, stemde de Nederlandse delegatie als staat vóór de doodvonissen en genetische schade door radioactief DU stof- en de onvermijdelijke stralingsvergiftiging. Dit is moord en oorlogsmisdadig.

US University report: "In a group of 251 soldiers in one study group in Mississippi, all of whom had normally birthed babies prior to their participation in either of the two (Persian) Gulf Wars, sixty-seven percent of their post-war offspring were born with severe deformities."

ONLY THE US, UK, FRANCE, THE NETHERLANDS, THE CZECH REPUBLIC, AND ISRAEL VOTED AGAINST

Intro by DU radiation specialist and US scientist Dr. Leuren Moret

Nov. 6th 2007 - Just for your information, Uranium 238 (DU) has a half life of 4.5 billion years, but it takes 10 half-lives for radiation to decay to an insignificant amount ... in other words 45 billion years. The Universe is only about 16 billion years old.

SOLDIERS HAVE REPORTED SEEING SHIPMENTS OF DEPLETED URANIUM COMING INTO CORPUS CHRISTI, TEXAS, FROM BELGIUM, SOUTH AFRICA, AND WE ALREADY KNOW CANADA IS OUR BIGGEST SOURCE OF DU WEAPONS.

Now look at the nays on that UN vote again. I am happy to say that several years ago Japanese citizens took me into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to challenge them on DU. One of the officials told me it is a "conventional weapon".

I am happy to say that Japan is removing their Aegis ship from the Indian Ocean which has been giving free gas to US jets and ships for nearly 6 years.

AND ON THIS UN VOTE, JAPAN VOTED AGAINST THE USE OF DU - THEY HAVE CONTAMINATION ON OKINAWA.

Here is my newest interview which has really really, really p....d off the Dept. of Energy. At the time this interview came out, a week+ ago, the Livermore/UC harrassers used some form of radio waves to burn off half of my hair - it was coming out in big gobs in my hairbrush. Now half of my hair is down to my waist and half is neck length. It was all the way to my waist before this interview. I have not cut it for 15 years. Christopher Bollyn's* wife just told me hers is falling out too - it's all from Non-Lethal-Weapons (NLW) which they make at the nuke labs and then send them to University/college campuses to use students to test along with gangstalking. They are training a whole new generation of social leadership which they will unleash on the world from the education mafia.

There were 10,000 hits on my interview within the first 24 hours it was up on Press TV. It is the biggest story they have ever had on their English language website. I am positive it was sent around to a list of intel operatives because the same thing happened when my film "Connecting the Dots" came out in April 2006. You can see it if you google video my name. It is excellent. - [End comment Dr. Leuren Moret]

UN FIRST COMMITTEE PASSES DU RESOLUTION IN LANDSLIDE VOTE

ONLY THE US, UK, FRANCE, THE NETHERLANDS, THE CZECH REPUBLIC, AND ISRAEL VOTED AGAINST

Henk Ruyssenaars - Journalist

This story is - to say the least - 'very underreported'. Search machines like Google and Yahoo - active parts of the pro war propaganda - apparently have decided not to carry the information, but that might change after some publicity.* - Google search - Url.:  http://tinyurl.com/2zpur3

FPF - 6 November 2007 - One of the horror stories concerning what uranium enriched (DU) ammunition does to people, can be found on a site years ago established by a group of professors from the University of Minnesota at Duluth, where information about a scientific study concerning the radiation and killing effects of DU were published. DU clearly is a WMD, an illegal weapon of mass destruction. Destroying you too in a global suicide.*

RADIATION EXPERTS HAVE WARNED THAT THE DU DUST AND RADIATION WILL LAST FOR UP TO FOUR-AND-A-HALF BILLION YEARS. 'BILLION' THAT IS, WITH A 'B'. (see 'half life' above)

"In a group of 251 soldiers in one study group in Mississippi, all of whom had normally birthed babies prior to their participation in either of the two (Persian) Gulf Wars, 67% (sixty-seven percent) of their post-war offspring were born with severe deformities, including but not limited to, birth defects; many were born with limbs missing, missing or damaged organs, missing eyes, or had blood-related or immune system diseases. In some veteran’s families, the only ‘normal children’ are those conceived and born before their participation in either of the Iraqi Wars." [ ]

Knowing the globally murdering effect of DU and its dust, it is very interesting to note that the biggest war criminals on earth who use DU ammunition to kill millions, voted against this resolution. They thus voted for murder and genocides for profit and power, while the human beings in the countries they abuse, abhor what they are doing.

HOW THE VOTING WENT:

FOR: 122 COUNTRIES - INCLUDING JAPAN

AGAINST: 6 COUNTRIES: US, UK, FRANCE, NETHERLANDS, CZECH REPUBLIC, ISRAEL

As one can see, the criminal voting against, as was done by the US, UK, France, The Netherlands, the Czech Republic, and of course Israel, again is a crime against humanity. The managers behind this DU abusing war machine proved for the umpteenth time that they are multinational criminals.

And the Dutch criminal crooks - like all others, and especially the propaganda media who support the genocides - must be marched to the gallows. As soon as this is possible again. [ ]

UN FIRST COMMITTEE PASSES DU RESOLUTION IN LANDSLIDE VOTE

ICBUW - 1 November 2007 - Late last night the UN First Committee passed, by an overwhelming majority, a resolution highlighting concerns over the military use of uranium.

The resolution entitled 'Effects of the use of armaments and ammunitions containing depleted uranium' was passed by 122 votes to six at the UN First Committee in New York; with 35 abstentions. The resolution urges UN member states to re-examine the health hazards posed by the use of uranium weapons.

The resolution was drafted by the Movement of Non Aligned States and submitted by Indonesia. It requests that states and international bodies submit a report on DU to the UN General Assembly during next year's session; depleted uranium weapons will also feature on the Assembly's agenda. A second vote confirming the resolution will take place early next year.

“This is a good result for our campaign,” said ICBUW Coordinator Doug Weir. “States around the world are no longer content to accept the claims by the users of these weapon systems that exposure to uranium dust is not linked to ill health. The last few years have seen great advances in our understanding of the health hazards posed by depleted uranium and it's high time that the international standards caught up with this research.”

USE OF CHEMICALLY TOXIC AND RADIOACTIVE WEAPON SYSTEMS

The vote comes after a year of intense campaigning by ICBUW and its member organisations, and follows calls by the European Parliament for a ban. In March this year, Belgium became the first country in the world to introduce a domestic ban on the use of uranium in all conventional weapon systems. The decision by Brussels to take this step sent a clear message to all NATO members and users of uranium weapons that the continued use of chemically toxic and radioactive weapon systems is incompatible with international humanitarian legal standards.

HOW THE VOTING WENT:

For: 122 countries (including Japan)

AGAINST: 6 COUNTRIES - US, UK, FRANCE, NETHERLANDS, CZECH REPUBLIC, ISRAEL

Abstentions: 35 countries
