Stop.

You know very well that depleted uranium rounds are neither nuclear weapons nor dirty bombs and claiming so only creates confusion.

The US' military usage of DU (not just in ammunition but also armor) has been controversial and you're free to critique it, but that's not what you're doing. Instead you lied and created these fictional "nuclear weapons" that the US is supposedly spreading everywhere, which is just not true.

In the current war in ME there's unverified accusation of US allies using EU (enriched uranium) weapons. Time will tell. https://english.almayadeen.net/articles/analysis/is--israel-...

> depleted uranium are neither nuclear

OK. I guess, you could say these weapons are enabled by the nuclear energy / weapons industry.
