Is one death that prevents thousands worth it or not? 100 hundred years from now will we look back and worry about the 63 Billion dollars we spent or count the lives we may have saved? I'd say none of this is over yet. And wringing our hands over a little DEPLETED uranium is simply hysteria. We didn't get lucky. We have the finest military the world has ever seen. They have been honed to a razors edge by the condemnation of the Leftist Agenda. The rest of the world has not lost respect. They're scared.

Hooray, another right-wing hawk joins the fold. Would you like thousands of depleted uranium shells in your backyard, if worrying about their effects is simply hysteria?
It seems like you don't want to understand the new world that surrounds us, but cow it that we might rule it with an iron fist.
