phosphorus is another weapon chemical being mentioned in the articles on the Iraqi birth defects.
Phosphorus could be a problem.
Is it possible that improper garbage disposal could be an issue? Look at all the chemicals from batteries, fluorescent tubes, etc. that get thrown away. There is a fair amount of very dangerous chemicals in fluorescent tubes, including phosphorus and mercury.
Any idea the proximity of a dump and the river?
Anyone?
The rumors of unconventional arms in Iraq go back a few years.
White phosphorus was another rumor in connection with Fallujah (I think).
The US military has officially denied using unconventional arms of any type in Iraq (pretty sure).
It'd be odd for them JMO to break the purity of their scientific ignorance, whether they are covering up or in fact innocent of the allegations.
with all your classified information.....and you don't know where the dump is?
preposterous!
I didn't learn about the holes you are so knowledgeable about.
I was unfamiliar with the area because we didn't have any nukes there.
you said "dump".
having memory concerns?
you wouldn't have been informed if they did.
Wrong...
We had a map on the wall of where they all were.
Well that ought to settle it for good.
WC saw em on a map.
Good... I will neither confirm nor deny if what I said was true. Doesn't matter anyway, as you will believe as you are biased to.
I seem to recall there being evidence,discovered post-invasion, of chemicals being dumped in the Euphrates and Tigris rivers, pre-invasion.
Fallujah sits on the Euphrates, if I'm not mistaken.
This should be the motto of Obama's death panels.
Deadly chemicals are found dumped in river
This is downstream from Fallujah.

Mus gas and cyanide have been found in river water in the Iraqi city of Nasiriyah, coalition forces said yesterday.
The poisonous substances are believed to have been dumped in the Euphrates either by Iraqi soldiers fleeing from American troops or local factories that produced weapons of mass destruction.
A spokesman for the United States marines, based just outside the city, described the quan ies of chemical agents found as "significant" and claimed that it was further evidence that Saddam Hussein has produced weapons of mass destruction.
He said yesterday: "I think this discovery shows what kind of guy is running this country.
"This stuff is just dumped in the Euphrates without any concern for the many people who drink and wash with water from the river."
The poisons were discovered by the marines' scientists who were testing the quality of water taken from the Euphrates before purifying it and distributing it to the residents of Nasiriyah, a city of 250,000 people.
It follows the discovery of hundreds of gas masks and chemical warfare suits at a military base near the city.
Weapons found at the site included rocket launchers, machine-guns and rifles, bayonets and thousands of rounds of ammunition.
Yesterday the site was deserted except for a few American soldiers examining the contents of the armoury, picking their way carefully through grenades and a huge amount of other explosives packed in boxes or strewn in and around the storerooms.
Among the boxes were papers with details of Iraqi soldiers, each with a small black-and-white passport photograph attached. There were also dozens of unused black berets of the sort worn frequently by Saddam Hussein.
The marines returned to the Euphrates in Nasiriyah yesterday to distribute purified water to hundreds of Iraqis who formed an orderly queue on the river bank.
Under the watchful gaze of heavily armed troops, the water was taken directly from the river, cleaned and then piped into buckets and jerry cans of all shapes and sizes.
Most residents were pleased that water was being provided, although some pointed out that the water problem only arose at the beginning of the war when American aircraft destroyed the city's treatment plant.
Abdul Ahmed, 33, said: "We are grateful for their help but we only have this problem because of the American bombings."
He added: "Before that we had water from the taps in our houses so we are still worse off than we were before the start of the war."
The two main rivers are naturally undrinkable. For thousands of years the Iraqis treat their water.

why did this great new democracy stop purifying their water?
This really screams for 'need actual research'...
This is really no different than other conspiracy theories like 'Obama must be hiding something from his past' and it's all a MSM coverup... If that's disgusting, this should be no different.
This is a little more sinister than the msm is left leaning TBH.
