A pretty damning indictment of concerns from the left over depleted uranium weapons, if you can believe the science cited here, well-documented and footnoted.

Best I can make out, the depleted-uranium agitation by the antiwar left is more than just exaggeration, it’s pretty much invented whole cloth — garbage, in other words. You recall the naive old saying, “Where there’s smoke there’s fire”? From what I’ve seen of propaganda mills blasting away full bore (full of lies), I’m much more taken by the comeback, attributed to John F. Kennedy, I believe: “Where there’s smoke, you’ll usually find somebody running a smoke-making machine!” — Michael E. McNeil, Impearls

Elsewhere on his site, McNeil also scoffs at the idea that a nuclear holocaust would mean doomsday for the human race, with a much more selective appraisal of the evidence, clearly in the service of his ideological biases.
