8/20 Hey is it true Ms. Sheehan is claiming US used nuclear weapons in Iraq?
-- ilyas
\_ I found one source claiming she said:
"We are waging a nuclear war in Iraq right now. That country is
contaminated. It will be contaminated for practically eternity now."
\_ Yeah... I think maybe she _is_ a nut. -- ilyas
\_ I wonder if she's referring to depleted uranium shells?
\_ Yah, that's the first thing that came to my mind also. I
remember it being an issue of concern that was in media a
fair bit. Perhaps she's having a layman's misunderstanding
of what it means to be using DU. *shrug* -mice
\_ "waging a nuclear war" is pretty unambiguous.
\_ It's a commonly used reference to DU in certain circles.
You're being obtuse.
\_ Ummm... I would suggest that people who change the
meaning of well known terms are the ones being
obtuse, not the people who are confused by their
new usage. Furthermore, I think her presence in
those circles pretty much shows her status as a kook.

I guess maybe he _is_ the President.
\_ Red herring for the win!

\_ So it now becomes an "attack" to quote an individual
or recite their actions.
How about this: no Gorelick/Clinton "wall" to block
Chinagate investigations, Clinton actually actively
pursuing terrorists after WTC1, Kenya, Saudia Arabia,
Cole, millenium, etc., no 9/11, no GW2. I think her
anger may be misplaced.
Of course this scenario is also possible: Carter doesn't
abandon the Shah to the Soviet backed Islamicists in
Iran, militant Islam never takes off.
\_ "...heroic Vietnam resumes: John McCain, Max Cleland, John
Kerry." Tsk tsk. |
