Al Jubayl and Khamisiyah....hmmmm....according to most of you clown Iraq didnt have weapons of mass destruction to include chemical weapons. So according to you assholes 3,216 soldiers died of sand inhalation?

That is one point I'll make about this document seeing as how I don't think you actually read past page 6 of section 2, which is probably where some conspiracy theory website told you to look so thats the only page you went to. First of all the figure that you threw out 73,846 deaths as it is on page 6 of section 2 COVERS ALL VETERAN DEATHS AND DOESNT CATEGORIZE THEM. IT EVEN SAYS ON THE LAST PAGE OF THE DOCUMENT "THE USE OF THESE DATA TO DRAW CONCLUSIONS REGARDING MORTALITY RATES WILL RESULT IN INACCURATE CONCLUSIONS". Before you get another genius notion of posting information try reading it first or at least knowing a little about what it is your posting before you post it.

Try exposure to depleted Uranium ordinance. That has caused over a million Iraqi deaths, mostly children. The consequences of exposure to our own troops lives on in the birth defects and cancers now beginning to show up in post war soldiers, Hey, maybe your kids will be born with some defects, who really knows. They lied about agent orange, what makes you think they won't lie about depleted uranium? They lied about exposure to fallout to all those poor people in Utah that got cancer from the A-bomb testing in Nevada. Hey, wake-up, our government lies, thats what they do best. There are over a million tons of depleted uraniun ordinance in Iraq lying all over the place. The dust in the air is enough to give you a good dose of cancer, so maybe you ought to get a check-up

I am just using the information presented in the document. Says nothing about depleted Uranium. I know the government lies, won't deny that one bit. But a document is being quoted and used as evidence in some cocka-mamey article by some idiot that shouldn't be writing aricles like this. (yeah I said cocka mamey) And I am as fit as a fiddle.

And I quote: (Section 3 Page 15)

Al Jubayl is a subset of the Conflict category. On or about January 19, 1991, service members serving in
and around Al Jubayl, Saudi Arabia reported an incident involving a “loud noise,” “bright flash,” and
possible “Iraqi chemical warfare agent attack.” There are 1,334 service members identified by the DoD
as having served in and around the port city of Al Jubayl on January 19, 1991. DoD concludes that the
chemical attack was “unlikely.” Additional information regarding events at or near Al Jubayl can be​

viewed at DoD’s web site: Welcome to the FHP&R Website!

And (Section 3 Page 19):

Khamisiyah is a subset of the Conflict category. The DoD identified 145,472 service members as
having served in units in the hazard areas in and around the Khamisiyah Ammunition Supply Point, Iraq
at the time of the demolition of chemical warfare munitions. On March 4, 1991, and on March 10, 1991,
the U.S. military destroyed Iraqi “chemical warfare agent rockets,” possibly exposing U.S. service
members to low levels of chemical warfare agents. Based on the most recent analysis of the Khamisiyah
events, the DoD believes 101,768 service members were possibly exposed to low-level chemical
warfare agents. Additional information about the current Khamisiyah analysis can be viewed at DoD’s​

web site: Case Narrative Khamisiyah Final Report.

Also, the UN findings and inspections on those sites are very interesting. Check out the links.
