I deleted the original message and am replacing it with this one. I had an error in the prior one.

Note that this uses measurements of "femtograms" - one quadrillionth
of a
gram -- same (except misspelled) measurement as that for Specialist
Matthew
Gerard of NY National Guard

correction the unit of measure for one quadrillionth of a gram is
the fem (with an M) togram, not fentogram (that is the spelling used by Juan
Gonzales in his NY Daily News article - Gonzales got his paper to have the NY Guardsmen tested by the UMRC which found this extremely low level of so-called DU -- more than likely
natural uranium in each of them. The health claims that they then make
sound more like a sitcom than real life.

Bunker Buster Bomb - Federation of American Scientists - Note that
there is
NO DU in this bomb
http://www.fas.org/man/dod-101/sys/smart/gbu-28.htm

Rokke and Moret claim that Israel used these DU tipped bombs in
Lebanon - Rokke went so far as to claim that the DU dust cloud would drift
across the Mediterranean and poison the island of Cypress. Note that there is
no DU in this bunker buster bomb -- then take a look at Miraki's claims again
about DU in Afghanistan .. Muhammed Daud Miraki is a con artist and he will
someday get his just due, but for now he is basking in the lecture
circuit with fellow con artists Rokke and Moret
