Friends, Here is what Leuren Moret, a scientist who is working on the DU issue, sent me: Takashi Morizumi has lots of photos of birth defects. He was in the hospital in Basra and the doctors would ask him to come quickly to the delivery room to take photos of the deformed babies before they died. I have his photo booklet but his website is www.savewarchildren.org. I am ccing Larry Cafiero who helped to start this tour in the US with his wife Kyoko and other Japanese. Since she speaks Japanese and communicates with Takashi Morizumi they can get the photos for you. Morizumi san has been in Iraq 4 or 5 times starting in about 1998. I do not know about any birth defects in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia, but believe me it's happening there too. If you look on my letter to McDermott: Letter to Congressman Jim McDermott: Declassified 1943 memo to General L.R. Groves a blueprint for depleted uranium http://www.mindfully.org/Nucs/2003/Leuren-Moret-Gen-Groves21feb03.htm reference 6 and 8 refer to research reports which reported du measured in the wind and environment in Hungary and Kuwait. Although the authors misinterpreted their own data, they reported measured levels nonetheless. The birth defects have to be there too. Elevated gamma levels were also measured in Greece during bombing in Kosovo but the scientists reporting this were fired and mobbed out of their jobs. I have the full reports and the Greece info if you ever need it. I will start asking around for Kuwait and Saudi Arabia.
