Yes, but why are you upset about this particular heavy metal as opposed to all the others involved in weapons?

The op is specifically about depleted uranium but hey, if you want to make the case that we shouldn't be sending weapons to Ukraine in the first place I'm not going to argue against it shrug-outta-hecks

In that case, why do you pretend to care only about certain weapons when you don't want any weapons sent?
