Hallo Ihr Lieben- hey dear friends!
On this shortest day of the solar year, I wish that
you may dream the night away with a beautiful dream
for the year to come, as the Sun waxes into it's
fullness again!
Even tho it might not seem like it, there's a
flowering spring and a beautiful hot summer ahead-
time for a new dream's birth, to believe in its magic,
to hope for it's delivery in the tangible world, and
to relish the awe that it is dreams that change the
world!
Cos always remember:
Another
World
Exists...
and merry meet again, s'alaam, yours, Frodo

From here and now, a new epoch of humanity has taken it's course...

INTERNATIONAL PETITION TO BAN URANIUM WEAPONS
Uranium weapons, often called depleted uranium (DU)
weapons, are manufactured from radioactive waste
materials produced during the nuclear fuel cycle and
the production of nuclear weapons. They cause
widespread and long lasting radioactive contamination
of the environment. These weapon systems are
radiologically and chemically toxic.
Many people - innocent civilians, especially children,
military veterans, industry workers - have illnesses
and medical problems, which may be due to their
exposure to DU. In areas such as southern Iraq, where
DU munitions were first used by the USA and the UK,
there have been reports of alarming increases in
cancers, leukemia and birth malformations.
At least 18 countries possess these weapons, the use
of which is contrary to existing humanitarian law.
We, the people, need to let governments and the United
Nations know that these weapons can have no part in a
humane and caring world. Every signature counts!
We call for your support to demand:
1. an immediate end to the use of uranium
weapons
2. disclosure of all locations where uranium
weapons have been used and immediate removal of the
remnants and contaminated materials from the sites
under strict control
3. health surveys of the DU victims and
environmental investigations at the affected sites
4. medical treatment and compensation for the
DU victims
5. an end to the development, production,
stockpiling, testing, trade of DU weapons
6. conclusion of a Convention for a Total Ban
on Uranium Weapons*
*A draft Convention (Treaty) can be found on the ICBUW
web site
