THE soldiers and civilians in Iraq and Afghanistan have been exposed to internal radioactive contamination from depleted uranium use. America says '70 tons of this material was used'.
It is hardly surprising that both the British and American Governments are 'slow to support' Gulf War One syndrome victims considering the huge compensation claims for damaged health against them.
They suffer cancer, organ failure, death and birth defects.
Tony Blair has betrayed them all.
