Not necessarily "breaking news"
What I like about this article is how it shows a detailed picture of the entire situation, how depleted uranium was already used there in the 90s. How Saddam trashed the place aswell, and how the west is completly ignoring the situation. It also shows, in detail, the long term effects.
News is not always breaking news. In this case one has to admit, that it is a story which has been willfully ignored by the west. So I have great respect for those journalists, who instead of trying to get the best pictures and insight of the most recent story, remind the public of stories which it chose to forget.
