WMDs in Iraq have been found!

But Saddam wasn't the nutjob who used them.

DU [Depleted Uranium] is a highly toxic heavy metal derived from nuclear bomb and fuel waste and is classified as a “weapon of mass and indiscriminate destruction” by the United Nations. DU emerged in the seventies as America’s Cold War weapon of choice - cheap, abundant and devastatingly effective for armor-piercing bullets, cluster bomb fragments that penetrate armor and anti-personnel mines, casing for bombs, shielding on tanks, counter weights and ground penetrator missiles. On contact, DU pulverizes into aerosol-like dust that can travel 26 miles and remains radioactive for 4.5 billion years.

If DU is inhaled, it can attack the body causing cancers, chronic illness, long-term disabilities and genetic birth defects - none of which will be apparent for at least five years. In last year’s conflict, between 1,100 and 2,200 tonnes of the stuff were fired at Iraq - a figure that eclipses the 375 tonnes used in the 1991 Gulf War. But unlike that largely desert-based conflict, most of the rounds fired last spring were in heavily residential areas. Readings taken from destroyed Iraqi tanks in Basra are so high in DU that a British army survey team had to wear white, full-body radiation suits, face masks, and gloves. Meanwhile, with nothing to warn them against it, Iraqi children use the tanks to play on. A study undertaken in November by the Uranium Medical Research Committee showed that readings taken from destroyed Iraqi tanks in Basra had radiation levels 2,500 times higher than normal. After the bombing of Baghdad, witnesses living next to the airport reported that 3,000 civilians were incinerated by one morning’s attack from aerial bursts of thermobaric and fuel air bombs. The area has now been landscaped by the US forces and Iraqi contractors, preventing a thorough examination.

It's really tough deciding what should be bolded in those two paragraphs. Essentially, the whole damn thing should be in bold, and I should post the rest of the article. But that's what links are for.
