American military creating an environmental disaster in Afghan countryside http://www.voltairenet.org/article165307.html#article165307

The close to 200 000 U.S. soldiers deployed in Afghanistan under the Obama Administration are creating a huge contamination problem as a result of the multiple types of waste and military residue which they generate but then fail to recycle. All these materials, some of which are radioactive, are left out in the open, causing a devastating impact on the environment and incalculable long-term health hazards for the Afghan population.
