Huge rise in birth defects in Falluja

Doctors in Iraq’s war-ravaged enclave of Falluja are dealing with up to 15 times as many chronic deformities in infants and a spike in early life cancers that may be linked to toxic materials left over from the fighting.
The extraordinary rise in birth defects has crystallised over recent months as specialists working in Falluja’s over-stretched health system have started compiling detailed clinical records of all babies born.
Neurologists and obstetricians in the city interviewed by the Guardian say the rise in birth defects – which include a baby born with two heads, babies with multiple tumours, and others with nervous system problems – are unprecedented and at present unexplainable.
A group of Iraqi and British officials, including the former Iraqi minister for women’s affairs, Dr Nawal Majeed a-Sammarai, and the British doctors David Halpin and Chris Burns-Cox, have petitioned the UN general assembly to ask that an independent committee fully investigate the defects and help clean up toxic materials left over decades of war – including the six years since Saddam Hussein was ousted.
“We are seeing a very significant increase in central nervous system anomalies,” said Falluja general hospital’s director and senior specialist, Dr Ayman Qais. “Before 2003 [the start of the war] I was seeing sporadic numbers of deformities in babies. Now the frequency of deformities has increased dramatically.”

The chemicals probably came from Sadam’s regime.

Plutonium is extremely toxic. The Depleted Uranium bullets contain plutonium apparently. Do you elites want to try some for lunch?

Now that Saddam is gone these things can be brought out in the open with out the fear of being killed. It has probably been going on since the 80’s. Depleted uranium is basicly harmless unless its going 2400 feet per second.

Hey Piggy, i it was the case those chemicals would would of been provided to Sadam by Rumsfeld & Poppy Bush. But its not the case! Falluja is the area where the US army used the most unconventional weapons and chemicals, like White phosphorus & equivalents of agent orange plus all the Depleted Uranium ammunitions, also they where a lot of casualties that where only the flesh was burned not the clothes & more mysterious hazards, nobody could investigate that zone; it was tightly sealed by the army & by secrecy.
Piggy! you should get out of your living room, Go to Africa, Arab countries, South America, not just from the airport to the Hilton & back to the airport. And if ever you still have a bit of humanity left, you will realize most of those people are more tolerant & friendly than you are, if you don’t have that bit of humanity, yes some might knife you to death! I wouldn’t blame them.
But I know for sure you will prefer to go to Disneyland or to Walmart.
Piggy! your coolaid! Bums up !!

Depleted uranium was warned to cause this horrific effect. Our weapons are responsible.

I’m utterly shocked that the news report failed to mention the most probable cause: depleted uranium. It’s the first cause I thought of, and previous posters seem to think likewise.

Your problem sir, is the fact that you still think that the Mainstream Media is going to tell you ANYTHING that resembles the TRUTH!
Get your news from other sources, preferably from outside the US because they don’t have as large a vested interest in the destruction of this country.
Truth sir, needs no laws to defend it.

Over many years we have all been lied to by our Governments… But not just our Governments but many religous leaders. Many things we have been taught are not even in Scripture and millions have swallowed so many lies by these false prophets. If you are a truth seeker please visit the following web site and take the time to read some of the articles… You will be shocked.

Actually birth defects higher among most islamic countries from their practices of related (inbreeding) marriages, very common of cousins marrying each other and closer. and you also have high incidence of rapes of related people, brother/sisters, fathers/daughters ect. all very eassy to explain, no need to be a rocket scientist here.

I don’t think those kind of birth defects are the major discolorations and six fingers and what we’re seeing. Use common sense, brother. It seems something is affecting the chromosomal development; it’s not just “bad gene-pooling.

The birth defects could be down to weapon shells made of ‘depleted uranium’! More research needed.

Who gives a rat’s ass. They are the enema!!!! Thee more we cripple and maime them, the less of our bravest will “meat” their demise. IWe could hide under the cover of allopathy, and just say we are giving them “precancer” radiation treatment. This is what allopathic quack doctors in the US do to thier patients everyday, for huge amounts of money. Mo’ power to ‘em. We can save the world through irradiation.
