7 october 2007, Rosolini, Sicily, specially trained lance-corporal Peppe Bongiovanni died. He was 43 years old and he was in Bosnia for 8 months in 2000. Bongiovanni died from bone tumor but ends don't meet: is he the 37th victim of depleted uranium or the 160th? Through the report "DEPLETED URANIUM, ends don't meet", by Maurizio Torrealta and Flaviano Masella, Rainews24 deals again with the ten-year-old dispute on depleted uranium effects and, in particular on mysteries surrounding the real physical processes occurring during the explosion of bullets. How many soldiers got sick at home or during a mission abroad? In a letter sent to the Commission of inquiry on depleted uranium the minister of defence Parisi says that there are about 1400 additional sick soldiers compared to the previously released data of 255. Whereas the Military Observatory says they are 2538. According to the Ministry of defence the number of Italian dead soldiers is 37, whereas the Military Observatory says 160. How can this data difference be possible? But ends don't even meet on the physical explanation of the process. How can it be possible that at the impact a temperature of 3000-4000 degrees is generated and that elements such as strontium are detected, elements which didn't exist previously. "I think that it would be reasonable to talk about a nuclear process. I believe materials observed in the depleted uranium operation can be explained through fission", Martin Fleischmann says, the scientist who invented the cold fusion. "Do you think that the military producing and using this type of weapons are aware of the physical properties or do they only know about the effects that these weapons can provoke?- asks the journalist of Rainews24 -"They use it as a weapon. Why should they try to understand anything more than what it is required, to use it as a weapon… " Martin Fleischmann answers. After the Balkans the use of depleted uranium rose sharply in Iraq. From 1991 to 2003, 2.000 tons of depleted uranium were used: 100 times more than in former Yugoslavia. Effects will be dramatic for both the population and the people operating in those areas.
