[casi] DU speculation



Great sub-editing today in the Guardian Online supplement.

Top of page 11 'How Islam kickstarted science: Keith Devlin on the
influence that science, culture and technology owe to Islam'

Immediately below that, 'The heavy metal logic bomb: Do new bombs
use depleted uranium? David Hambling does the sums'.

Suggests that the new Advanced Unitary Penetrator likely to be used
against buried targets in the next war on Iraq contain quarter of a ton
of DU each, which will be punched into the ground well below the
water table, creating environmental risks for thousands of years.

How the debt is being repaid.

Cheers

Mil
