Comprehensive Epidemiologic Resources(DOE)http://wwwcedr.lb.gov/ This is the closest I could find on the military based internet to some of the actual facts about radiation death and cancer statistics from the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombing. I have put in this link because it may provide Gulf War Syndrome vets who used the "depleted uranium" artillery to register with the University of Washington research on people exposed to high levels of radiation(this originally started because of exposure at the Hanford, Washington, Army Uranium recycling center--the USA's ChernobylThe United States Transuranium and Uranium Registries Attention: R.

This relates to the actions of the 1st Battalion, 27th Field Artillery during Desert Storm. This is possibly the actual name of the batallion that was exposed to the "depleted uranium, " most, although everyone on the Kuwait-Iraqi border at that time would have been exposed. Anyone who knows where they are based in the US is? That city is probably also exposed to "depleted uranium" in high doses and residents there might have reason to volunteer themselves to the Uranium Registries.

The reports on the fourfold increase in incidences of Cancer, and their having happened immediately east of the area where the few tank battles between Iraqi tanks and the 1st Battalion 27th Field Artillery(declassified Army document, http://www.gulflink.osd.mil/declassdocs/army/970908/970815_sep96_decls10_0001.html), armed with experimental "depleted uranium" shells, took place cast a light today on the barbarous practice of the Clinton Administration not only toward Iraqi people but toward citizens right here in the US and in Israel. I had thought that Carter was the Nuclear President--remember how he dove into Three Mile Island to say there was nothing wrong? And how he wanted to make Iran into a dump for US nuclear waste? But, in my research on the Internet, it turns out Clinton is really polluting in a grand way, all in the name of "compliance with the International Atomic Energy Investigation Teams." This line is not only his administration's line on Iraq, but on the need for further promoting cancer in the US--in order to balance the Federal (Uranium for sale) budget. Here's a press release from Clinton on a jigantic scheme to give business to a company in Portsmouth Ohio to convert weapons grade uranium into nuclear power plant uranium--as if we needed more nuclear power plants! http://apollo.osti.gov/doe/whatsnew/pressrel/pr97133.html

Any time you do research on the effects of radioactive doses, you begin with the Hiroshima studies. The Internet was originally a War Department's project, and it is almost impossible to find the original studies that anti-nuke researchers can can use at any good university's Public Health library. An "openness" project of the Department of Energy has provided, however, the CEDR(Comprehensive Epidemiologic Data Resource at http://cedr.lbl.gov has some information. What you want there is the leucemia and cancer statistics from Japan at Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Not easy to find, but they are there. To help understand them, click on my Low Level Radiation Table of Contents, which is some HTML i've typed from Gofman's Radiation and Human Health.

States in the USA are supposed to take in and pubish the emissions of radioactive isotopes from the state's commercial nuclear power plants. To get an example of the emissions, and hence the fallout, from a typical boiling water reactor, you could telnet to Energy and Reguatory Matters information Service (ERMIS)telnet://ermis.state.mi.us and search for the Dept. of Public Health(now called Michigan Dept. of Consumer and Industry Services) records on Fermi 2, Palisades, and perhaps even the University of Michigan Research Reactor. If you use a Tenet connection, press the "enter" or "return" key two or three times to activate the system. It doesn't take much intelligence to note the obvious: the figures of the fourfold increase of cancer in Iraq since the 1991 gulf war--and what they call Gulf War Syndrome--are due to that "depleted uranium." . . .just as the fourfold increase in cancer cases in the survivors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki are admittedly caused by radiation from that one day in 1945.
Any amount of radioactivity above the normal radiation we are bound to receive from outer space is harmful, and that is why all nuclear power plants should be shut down; and rivers, coal, wind, and tides be used to make electric power--which is what the Arab countries do. Only Israel, stuck in like a wedge to disunite what used to be a united Mediterranean Middle East relies on nuclear power for its electric use since it's government is like ours (USA,UK,WESTERN EUROPE) and does not respect the needs of its citizens to live in a non-radioactive environment. Egypt built the Aswan Dam, Syria and Iraq have dams on the Euphrates, and Iraq used to SELL hydroelectric power to Kuwait. Actually it is fortunate for the Iranians that the west refuses to "give" it nuclear tecnology, for there was a time when Iraq was recipient of one of these "gifts," from France. The fact that Israel took upon itself to actually bomb that reactor in Iraq, in 1980, further shows the disrespect for radiation victims immidiately within the confines of Israel as well as for those in the immediate vicinity of the Iraqi reactor, which I think was in Kurdistan.
I hope these links will be helpful. I can e-mail you other radiation documents I copied, such as the State of Virginia's disaster preparadness plan for the event of an accident at the civilian nuclear power reactors in that state. [email protected]
