The use of depleted uranium munitions has been fiercely debated, with opponents like the International Coalition to Ban Uranium Weapons saying there are dangerous health risks from ingesting or inhaling depleted uranium dust, including cancers and birth defects.

      Nope the effectiveness is the point.

        Imagine being this bloodthirsty you’re willing to let Ukrainians suffer the effects of depleted uranium just to kill more Russians

          “let” Ukrainians.

          Your patronising colonial mask is slipping.

          Ukrainians have ASKED for these weapons so they can get rid of the murderous, child torturing Russians out of their country.

          Stop amplifying the propaganda of child torturers.

          Imagine defending a regime that targets hospitals and schools for missile attacks and rains white phosphorous down on cities.

          If the Russians cared about anything beyond their own expansionist agenda, they’d retreat and end the war they started. If you actually cared about the suffering of Ukrainians, you would stop being a mouthpiece for that regime.

          I think Russia would be the most bloodthirsty if this was a contest. Good try though.

          Yes it’s that simple isn’t it? At least to a simpleton.
