Please send the petition to: gilmunier@gmail.com or/and gillesmunier86390 @neuf.fr

 

Hans von Sponeck -ex-UN Coordinator for Iraq –Germany

 This clean-up is vital for Iraq and to assist constitutes an international obligation. 

 

Dr Doug Rokke- Retired scientist -military - USA

As the former director of the U. S. Army Depleted Uranium project and as a DU casualty the use of uranium munitions and refusals by the United States, England, Australia, Canada, and Israel officials to clean up the environmental contamination and provide medical care to all affected individuals as required by orders, laws, directives, and regulations is a crime against God and humanity.

 

William Fields –Architect- USA

The use of depleted uranium is illegal and those responsible for it's use need to be prosecuted in a world court of law and held to account. 

 

Claudia Schibler -Writer, Activist, Advocate, Veteran- Canada

 War is just plain stupid and serves only war profiteers.

 

Louie Josef -Sales Manager -Melbourne - Australia

Depleted Uranium Caused cancer to my Father

 

Dr Ayoub Abu-Dayyeh- Civil Engineer & Environmentalist- Jordan

We need to clean up the mess left by DU and lobby to limit DU production too.

 

Mrs Janet King- Parish councilor United Kingdom

 I have written to my MP on this issue and received a reply from the Ministry of Defense, UK denying that cancer increases in Iraq can be attributed to DU. I wish you every success with this petition.

 

Dan Rudka -Former nuclear energy worker - disabled –Canada

Severely injured by radiation and uranium inhalation after two years in the nuclear fuel industry in Canada, I have come to understand that there is no need for nuclear in war, or peace. The damage to the people of the world serves no purpose than to create financial wealth for those that least need or deserve. If we had of spoke out, protested, demanded the truth in the early years of nuclear age, many would not suffer and live in despair

 

Henk van der Keur -Engineer and researcher on nuclear energy and related issues- the Netherlands

Since March 1992 I am working for a ban on DU. that’s toooo much! It has to be banned now!

 

Harry van Bommel -Member of Parliament -Netherlands

This concerns all countries (and their citizens) that supported the wars against Iraq. Sign the petition and ask your MP to do the same. There is no justification for DU munitions

 

 Ann Aurelia Lopez, Ph.D. Professor of Environmental Studies U.S.A.

The use of DU munitions renders the entire region unlivable; a disgrace that will haunt the American empire into the indefinite future.

 

Nidhal Al-Nakkash University Prof Iraq

Is there an opportunity to include mines? They are a huge area along Iraq - Iran boarders.

 

Barraq Ali, Teacher, Saudi Arabia

Noble effort for a very worthy cause.

 

Carole Winn-Smith artist, USA

What can one say about this level of suffering being inflicted on the people of Iraq and the damage to our world? How can this possibly be acceptable or be considered a necessary part of a solution to any problem? What problem did we ever have in the first place that was worse than this?

 

Amer Al Hamdani Contracts Manager UK

The guilty will be brought to justice sooner or later

 

Laith Abdulla Alrawi Quality Assurance Manager Canada

US Government should pay the bill for removing

 

Samar Omar Juma Housekeeper Amman Jordan

This land was so clean please return it to be clean

 

William Curry, Health Manager, Canada

Canadians bear responsibility as a uranium source of some DU and other nuclear weapons. We are obliged to become aware, concerned and engaged in all possible ways to admit and resolve the 'depleted' uranium problems inflicted on Iraq and other peoples

Kamil K. Al-adhadh

I fully support this call to bring attention to this really catastrophic situation. I think the US is morally responsible for these tragic consequences of its two invasions of Iraq; once in 1991, and the second in 2003, regardless the goals of these two invasions.

 

Kay Ali, computer specialist, united states    

We all need Iraq to be clean from all chemicals and pollution resulting from the war and to save every Iraqi kids, young and old, may god bless every one to help Iraq.

Raheem M. Ameen Chife geologist Iraq

As a geologist lam ready to work with any time for that as voluntary person

 

Khalid Putres Engineer Australia

Though this is a hopeless call and no one would listen. But I will say it anyway. To those who "liberated" Iraq, to those whose planes threw flares on its wheat fields, and to those who got rid of their dirty depleted Uranium by chucking it on Iraq, at least do something in return for all the wealth you are stealing from Iraq. At least clean your mess. For sure you don't care. Abu Ghuraib is the best proof for that. But let's see if there are still some humans among you.

 

Makki H Fayadh consultant physician Iraq

I have seen great increase in cancers specially bowel cancer and lymphomas

 

 Lina Edward Fatehallah professional translator, London

It is high time we started to clean up the debris of the wars that destroyed mankind, ecology, and environment, let’s work together for such a noble task

 

Dr. Barak Saeed Yehya Professor in Mechanical Engineering Qatar

UN should act quickly, and those countries that invaded Iraq and used polluting weapons should be held responsible to clean up Iraq from war pollutants.

 

Aiad Hashim Electronics Engineer UK

Those who were responsible to pollute Iraq with their weapons with depleted uranium should be the ones who pay for the clean up and all the birth defects that they caused

 

Ghanim Al-Tahhan aircraft engineer Canada

Iraq is our heart wherever we live

 

Akram Al-Hilali Medical doctor Iraq

It seems we are asking those who polluted our country to clean it up. They polluted it intentionally, so they will never respond positively to this petition. Therefore, this is just to make their crime known to others.

 

Usama Al-Azm Administrator Syria,

The cradle of Civilization should not be so abused

 

Asma D. Al - Haidari Economist Iraq / Jordan

 Kadhem Majeed Psychiatrist New Zealand

My brother is battling with lymphoma and through him I learnt that cancer became like common cold in Iraq. The world must Act now. In my view it is an urgent matter. Iraq and the rest of the world are safer without Saddam but radiation is a danger that we can not ignore or be complacent with. We are lucky to have life on earth where all the neighboring planets are bare. No one has the right to contaminate our planet with radiation and put or lives and the lives of our children in danger. Crime against humanity using atomic weapons has yet again been committed.

 

 Ibrahim Hayani Professor of Economics Canada

The people of Iraq have suffered more than enough under despotic dictatorship and brutal foreign occupatio; they need a cleaner environment in order to rebuild their ravaged noble land and create a better future for their children.

 

 Radhwan Munir University Lecturer UAE

We are the victims of the crazy & brutal behavior of the previous US government against the innocents

Iraq has been the victim of both its dictators in the past and the occupation forces in 2003. They used excessive force and probably prohibited weapons to minimize their losses.

We know all too well the long lasting effects of war. The use of DU had added to the global background radiation levels and should be of concern to all of us. Iraq had free and accessible health care for all prior to the two invasions. Now they barely cope. We should all be ashamed.
