The two Gulf Wars have resulted in serious health problems for many Iraqi civilians. These have been attributed to poor sanitation, malnutrition, chemical and biological weapons, oil well fires, and depleted uranium. Many U.S. veterans have reported a variety of post-war illnesses. Although many critics have suggested that depleted uranium is the principal factor for both Irqi civilian and U.S. veteran health problems, in-depth studies have found that depleted uranium health risks are relatively small. This suggests that greater attention should be given to other factors.
