DU expert Leuren Moret to address Vancouver 9/11 Truth Conference on depleted uranium (DU)
Jun 14, 2007, 00:34
VANCOUVER � Leuren Moret, expert witness at the 2004 Tokyo
International Tribunal for War Crimes in Afghanistan and former Environmental
Commissioner of the City of Berkeley, Calif., will speak publicly for the first
time in Canada, and address the Vancouver 9/11 Truth Conference on June 22-24,
2007, on the serious public health risk to Canada and the world posed by the
use of depleted uranium (DU) weapons by the U.S. military forces in Iraq,
Yugoslavia and Afghanistan. Israel dropped over 4,000 DU bunker-buster bombs on
Lebanon in July 2006.
In April, 2007, Leuren Moret exposed the U.S. military�s
illegal use of depleted uranium (DU) weapons in target practice in Hawaii, in
violation of U.S. military regulations. The elevated radiation readings she
recorded were carried by ABC-TV news in Hawaii on April 29 & 30, 2007.
DU and 9/11
Leuren Moret reported similar elevated radiation readings
downwind from the Pentagon in Washington, D.C. on September 11, 2001. Two days
after 9/11, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) confirmed that the
crash site rubble was radioactive and that it was probably depleted uranium
(DU) contaminating the Pentagon crash site rubble. The entry and exit holes
through the Pentagon crash site were the signature of a kinetic energy
penetrator, such as a Cruise missile, and the term �punch-out hole� was written
by crash site investigators over the exit hole. This is a military term used
for kinetic energy penetrators. Major Doug Rokke, former Director of the Gulf
War I DU Cleanup Team, reported that an email from the Pentagon 30 minutes
after impact confirmed a Cruise missile hit the Pentagon on 9/11.
Recently vast Uranium deposits have been reported in
Khazakhstan and Afghanistan. Khazakhstan is expected to out-produce Canada in
Uranium production within 12 years. This exposes the economic interests behind
the events of 9/11, specifically the unjustified military attack by the U.S. on
Afghanistan using 9/11 as a pretext.
Public health effects of depleted uranium (DU)
The demonstrated public health effects of depleted uranium
(DU) weapons include: diabetes; cancer; birth defects; chronic diseases caused
by neurological and neuromuscular radiation damage; mitochondrial diseases
(Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Lou Gehrig�s Disease, Parkinson�s and Alzheimer�s;
heart and brain disorders); global DNA damage in men�s sperm; infertility in
women; learning disabilities such as autism, and dyslexia; mental illness;
infant mortality and low birth weights; Increase in death rates and decrease in
birth rates.
Leuren Moret and Alfred Lambremont Webre, JD, MEd, of the
Institute for Cooperation in Space (ICIS) will also address the issue of the
illegal use of Canadian uranium in U.S. depleted uranium (DU) weapons
worldwide. Canada is the world�s largest exporter of uranium, and supplies 30
percent of the world�s uranium. Sixty percent of Canadian uranium is exported
to the USA. According to experts such as Dr. Rosalie Bertell, the preponderant
majority of depleted uranium in U.S. DU weapons used in the first Iraq war
(1991); Balkans war (1998); the Iraq No Fly Zone (1991-2003); the Afghanistan
war (2001-2007); and Iraq war II (2003-2007) is of Canadian origin, in
non-compliance with Canadian law. The regulations of the Canadian Nuclear
Safety Commission and the Canada-US Nuclear Cooperation Agreement prohibit the
use of Canadian uranium in weapons, including DU weapons.
Depleted uranium and DU weapons
are already prohibited as weapons of mass destruction under existing
international conventions and treaties, including the 1925 Geneva Poison Gas
Protocol. According to an August 2002 report by the UN sub-commission, laws
which are breached by the use of DU shells include: �the Universal Declaration
of Human Rights; the Charter of the United Nations; the Genocide Convention;
the Convention Against Torture; the four Geneva Conventions of 1949; the
Conventional Weapons Convention of 1980; and the Hague Conventions of 1899 and
1907, which expressly forbid employing 'poison or poisoned weapons' and 'arms,
projectiles or materials calculated to cause unnecessary suffering'. All of
these laws are designed to spare civilians from unwarranted suffering in armed
conflicts."
Atomic weapons, depleted uranium
poison gas weapons and the first Agent Orange prototype were developed in World
War Two under the Manhattan Project to target civilian populations, for the
specific purpose of depopulation. The global pollution of the atmosphere with
depleted uranium radioactive poison gas since 1991 is causing a global epidemic
of chronic illnesses, which will contribute to extensive depopulation and
ecological destruction. This is newly defined as omnicide. Depopulation became
the top U.S. National Security priority detailed in the �Global 2000� Report
written by Henry Kissinger, Z. Brzezinski, Gen. Alexander B. Haig, and Sen
Edward Muskie for Pres. Jimmy Carter. This national security policy of
depopulation is now being carried out by means of global low-level radioactive
DU pollution. The result, an increase in death rates and decrease in birth
rates, will achieve the goals of maximizing profits and concentrating wealth
upwards, for the benefit of an international war crimes racketeering
organization.
Joining Leuren Moret on a special
panel on depleted uranium (DU) will be Dr. Bill Deagle, a medical toxicologist
experienced in DU and environmental health; Dennis Kyne, a former Gulf War I
U.S. military combat veteran with DU exposure, author and leader in revealing
the depleted uranium scandal, and Alfred Lambremont Webre, JD, MEd,
International Director of the Institute for Cooperation in Space (ICIS).
International Citizen�s 9/11 War Crimes Tribunal
Alfred Webre, an international lawyer and member of the Pro Tem Committee for the Kuala Lumpur International
War Crimes Tribunal to be held in 2008, will address the Vancouver 9/11
Truth Conference, on the issue of �The 9/11 False Flag Operation as a War Crime
under International Law.� Sept. 11 was a pretext to engage in genocidal and
ecocidal depleted uranium (DU) bombing of Central Asia (Afghanistan and Iraq).
In order to prosecute the 9/11 perpetrators under the 9/11 Independent
Prosecutors Act, Alfred Webre and Leuren Moret will call for the establishment
of an International Citizen�s 9/11 War Crimes Tribunal to prosecute President
George W. Bush, Vice President Richard B. Cheney, former Secretary of Defense
Donald H. Rumsfeld, and other Jane and John Does for war crimes under the
Geneva Conventions, including genocide, crimes against humanity and crimes
against peace. The International Citizen�s 9/11 War Crimes Tribunal would be
convened under the jurisdiction of the Kuala Lumpur
International War Crimes Tribunal, established in February 2007 as a permanent
citizen�s tribunal by The Perdana Global Peace Organization, chaired by Tun Dr.
Mahathir bin Mohamad, former Prime Minister of Malaysia, who is the first
prominent world leader to take up the DU radiation issue.
The 9/11 Truth Conference: Canada, 9/11 and the New World
Order brings together over 18 international speakers on issues:
- The
History of False Flag Terrorism by governments and intelligence agencies
to justify military interventions, spending, and extraordinary domestic
measures.
- Canada's
participation in the War On Terror and in Afghanistan, and that country's
real relationship to 9/11.
- Solid
Scientific and Historical Evidence that directly contradicts the Official
Narrative of 9/11
- Gatekeeping:
Suppression of information by the mass media, political parties, authors
and political commentators.
- The
importance, methods and means of 9/11 Truth Activism.
- The
use of depleted uranium (DU) Weapons and their effects on local
populations, soldiers and the world, as well Canada's role in producing
such weapons.
- Canadian
Pension Funds at the Provincial and Federal levels are heavily invested in
the US military-industrial complex. Taking the profit out of war is the
most effective way to support peace. It is mandatory that Pension funds be
divested from the war machine.
- Preventing
the Weaponization of Space through an international Space Preservation
Treaty-signing with a caucus of five or more progressive nations, the 178
Nations which voted against the weaponization of space at the 2006 U.N.
General Assembly.
- Globalization
and �New World Order� agenda for Canada and the world. The emerging
culture of surveillance of ordinary citizens in Canada and worldwide.
- The
S.P.P. (Security and Prosperity Partnership) between the USA, Canada and
Mexico, which many contend is a blueprint for a North American Union
(without citizen input nor public debate), as well as the fate of
democracy, sovereignty, civil rights, Canadian culture, and our national
identity.
