Ten Years Later, America Rebuilding Iraq

In part two of the interview, Al Jazeera reporter Dahr Jamail discusses how the U.S. invasion of Iraq has left behind a legacy of cancer and birth defects suspected of being caused by the U.S. military's extensive use of depleted uranium and white phosphorus. Noting the birth defects in the Iraqi city of Fallujah, Jamail says: "They're are extremely hard to bear witness to, but it's something that we all need to pay attention to ... What this has generated is from 2004 up to this day, we are seeing a rate of congenital malformations in the city of Fallujah that has surpassed even that in the wake of the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki that nuclear bombs were dropped on at the end of World War II." Jamail has also reported on the refugee crisis of more than one million displaced Iraqis still inside the country, who are struggling to survive without government aid, a majority of them living in Baghdad.

This is heart breaking. How could anyone or anything ever wish this type of horror on one small, innocent beautiful creature? 

Those who do this willingly...I curse.

Fallujah the hidden massacre 

Sigfrido Ranucci; "white phosphorus was being used on Fallujah. In the military slang is called Willy Pete. The phosphorus burns the bodies, it even melts them."
