We don't usually start articles with warnings, but some of the pictures in the gallery are incredibly distressing. We omitted some on the grounds that they were just too upsetting, but the ones that we do run, we do so with full permission, and because we feel that this is an important story.

I can't single out any one part of this to quote, so please click through and read it. This is horrifying. I don't know what to say. Every time I think about this I start crying.

Holy shit.

I thought depleted uranium was meant for killing tanks? Not for urban fighting?

I remember seeing news articles about depleted uranium about 3 years ago, but to actually see it is even more saddening.

American govt are run by the banks elites, and are taking over the middle east. They do not care about middle easterners... They want death to many to reduce the worlds population. This world is screwed
