A multi-partisan activist group established to expose and resist US imperialism, corpora-terrorism, and the New World Order
US military burn pits built on chemical weapons facilities tied to soldiers' illness | 16 Feb 2016 | Vice President Joe Biden's son, Beau Biden, arrived in Iraq in 2008, and spent the next several months serving as a Jag officer at Camp Victory, just outside of the Baghdad airport, and Joint Base Balad, nearly 40 miles north of Baghdad. Though he returned home safely in September 2009, he woke up one day a few months later with an inexplicable headache, numbness in his limbs and paralysis on one side of his body. Beau had suffered a mild stroke. His health deteriorated, and he was diagnosed with brain cancer…Though the underlying cause of Beau's cancer cannot be confirmed, evidence gathered in a new book out Tuesday suggests a possible link between his illness and service. Based on clusters of similar cases, scientific studies and expert opinions, author Joseph Hickman proposes in The Burn Pits: The Poisoning of America's Soldiers that US service members in Iraq and Afghanistan confronted more than one unexpected enemy that followed them home.
