The telltale aluminum shell casing of an American 30mm Depleted Uranium bullet, lies on the ground behind the Planning Ministry, a target of US A-10 Warthog aircraft, May 3, 2003 in downtown Baghdad, Iraq. The bullets remain "hot" with radioactive contamination. DU bullets have been controversial since they were first used in the 1991 Gulf War, though until this war they had never before been used in heavily populated urban areas. DU leaves behind a toxic and radioactive residue that experts say can be dangerous--in the US, by law, it must be disposed of in low-level radioactive waste dumps, and licences from the Nuclear Regulatory Commission regulate its handling. Some US veterans blame DU for Gulf War syndrome; Iraqis have for years alleged that 1991 DU use contributed to a spate of birth defects and cancers in southern Iraq.
