WHO’s Iraq Birth Defect Study Omits Causation
A long-awaited study on congenital birth defects by the World Health Organization (WHO) and the Ministry of Health (MOH) in Iraq is expected to be very extensive in nature.
According to WHO, 10,800 households were selected as a sample size for the study, which was scheduled to be released early this year but has not yet been made public.
Many scientists and experts have started questioning the time delay in publishing the study, but there is another aspect that is a cause for concern among some health experts.
The report will not examine the link between the prevalence of birth defects and use of depleted uranium (DU) munitions used during the war and occupation in Iraq, according to WHO.
WHY DO THE BLOODY STUDY, IF YOU DON’T LINK AND IDENTIFY THE CAUSE?!?
This is completely insane, and a clumsy attempt to exonerate the US government and military from their responsibility for these deadly, horrific birth defects we have seen in areas of Iraq like Fallujah.
Like the use of Agent Orange in Vietnam, the US government will equivocate, deny, and attempt to shoot the messengers on this issue of the horrific suffering the use of these chemicals has caused.
To the eyes and conscience of the world, however, the use of DU in Iraq will not simply go away here.
