a helicopters lying over the ridge, spraying something. and they didn't even see the kids. and the kids were all fishing or just playing by the river. and the kids were all choking and gasoline that night. they were all really sick with diarrhea. they were having trouble breathing. we went down to the river that next day and that's when we found dead ducklings and dead crayfish, dead trout. we called the forest service. and they said, oh no, it's perfectly safe. it was a mixture of $240.00 and $2.00 for 5 t agent orange that was banned in vietnam. and nobody realized that the same

chemicals were being used here in a still going on with agent orange was a tremendously destructive omen of a tremendously destructive war in its own. unique way agent orange was the most destructive instance of chemical warfare in modern history. when i was still 5 years old or something, i read everything, it was still during the war and i read something about all the birds being killed like oil spills from ships being blown out. that's what i worried about during the war was all those birds come in like that. he helped me and i started reading

letters. i'm not sure who i sent them to or wanting some. what did take care of those birds please? maybe that was the beginning of my activism noon. we moved here and 74. the kids were just part of this landscape. they were down among the river. they knew everything that lived down there. my kids loved it. i mean they were part of it. there were beaver's daughters in the river then to yeah, of course all the fish and harrison i sprays some they were part of that they loved it was nothing to worry about. mm

hm . clear heading is one of the most insane things you could ever do. it's like strip mining a living organism which a forest is they weren't required to replant. and most of those clear cuts developed into huge brush fields. then all of a sudden they were faced with this law that says you can't clear cut unless you replant within 3 years. so then they had to clear all the brush on these old clear cuts. so they could replant them. and just all coincided with the end of the use of agent orange and vietnam.

michael newton from oregon state university was getting surplus barrels of agent orange that dead air force. couldn't use any more in vietnam and was praising the use of these things and how they were going to transform forestry forever. thing they started to split blanket these huge, clear cut with a lot of major orange and drift. some we could smell it, and her within a few days our garden was dead. the kids were all sick again. and the dog got so sick he died. carol has been just a tireless champion for uncovering true, factual,

scientifically based information and trying to get that for decision maker. oh, these people are just liberal it, they're woodson, and i'm a member senior thinking, bruce you somewhere you got it. you've got to help these people. they are literally, they know nobody's willing to help them. and i said, you've got to produce the experts that have you can produce the experts. i'll take your case on and we'll go, we'll go to battle over the whole suby, milan, flu numbers your machine or no samples to the song. go no news as your if i say

a fire of the fat lazy stay gone then melody at the white house the stage of history has had on our 1st meeting between president eisenhower, i'm senator kennedy's has the leg when eisenhower passed over the national security apparatus to john kennedy. how scared we had to be that communism was on the march, and we had to stop it. wherever it was. kennedy loved the idea that american ingenuity, not just big, scary bombs, but different more surgical kinds of technologies could be used to defeat these insurgencies and agent, orange or ur besides. in general was part of that strategic view. the here at the chemical company in midland michigan

revolutionary chemical killers are being produced to help us of these costly press . one of the newest and most versatile weapons and dollars arsenal of chemical warfare is to for dial. we'd killer to 4. d is a growth regulator. type of we'd kill it. the action is illogical, appearing to upset the plants, growth processes and causing gradually, but certain death. the saigon government in 1961 was a vociferous proponents of the use of, or besides, in vietnam, in the, the government was fighting a communist insurgency in the south. that was supplied by and

they felt that the insurgency was a major threat to their existence. ah ah, the i miss it in october 1961 things haven't really gotten started yet. these are telexes. it's a message from the ambassador noting, but basically just saying present damn is begging people to spray crops. and there's so much doubt it confusion washington about whether to do this or not.

ah operation ranch and had multiple components to it, a food denial component. but the most notorious was the use of agent orange to take away the forest cover. take away the insurgence capability to hide and conduct gorilla ambush operations. but once the overall war escalated, the deflation program just sort of followed rather mindlessly right behind it. spring, millions of gallons of highly concentrated herbicides indiscriminately over vast

areas of forest. many times over is chemical warfare. it was highly destructive, and it was massive. it was a weapon of mass destruction. frank's hand was c name for the herbicide to fully acer program. run by the air and i was sent over to vietnam and may of 1971 to do the final historical right up of the ranch and program. i had made friends with the young army lieutenant over there and he came to me one afternoon and said,

we have received orders from headquarter versus 1971. we are to dumped the computer and erase it not downloaded and shipped to wash. don't he said, he said if you want any of that information for your report, you're gonna have to come with me tonight and move over to my fi headquarters. i'll get you into my office and we'll print them out. and he turned on the machine and we printed out a stack like that's my report indicated that there were some real problems developing from people exposed to asian, orange. ah, i finished my report and it was immediately clashed fi secret and the government kept it locked up or 35 years and denied didn't even exist. it

the federal government basically federalized all the chemical companies to do nothing but produce a generic and other chemicals for the war to vietnam. and they knew that the more they produce, the more money they with me. so they, in order to deliver as much as they could as quickly as they could. they violated then existing industry standards for the production of herbicides by using a process that was much shorter at higher temperatures. that was responsible for the presence of the, of the oxen and the ultimate chemical substances that were greeted. and they knew that it posed risks to individuals. they knew that imposed risk to the land. they knew that it was contained to poison. and they knew that that the effects to be devastating

while i was preparing my report, i came across the documents that indicated confirmed that we authorized production of the asian, ours, which is a mixture 24250524245, g with the higher concentration of dioxin as the contaminant at contaminant in the 245 t compact. we knew die. auction is an extremely potent carcinogenic mutagenic meaning it causes chromosomes to mutate to ratty, janet, affecting the fetus of a woman, very potent compound national hero standards estimate. and the half life for a dioxin molecule, 2000000000 years. that's why ha,

regards it as equivalent to clue tony. both in its toxicity and in its longevity, how long can persist. so it doesn't go away. it goes away politically. this is the 1st time that the scientists have ever created a molecule, this toxic and, and they, they know that even, you know, just one to 2 parts per trillion can cause birth defects, mutations, cancer, when, ah, seeing a larger number of defects than we would have expected we saw a number of congenital hearts and i think it was 978.

i delivered an answer, phallic child. that's a child that doesn't have basically the normal brain. in my lifetime of delivering babies, i would not expect ever to see one. and about a year later, we delivered a 2nd and then select child. those odds were just astronomical that a small practice like ours would have to allen's valley children. it made me realize that there was something going on. the corona virus has been indiscriminate in selecting this victims. it's devastating effects of plague every corner of the globe, transcending class creed and color. but in britain, a disproportionately high percentage of the full have been black or brown skins.

the big picture traces the economic disparities and institutional racism that a seem united kingdom fail. it citizens britain's true colors, part one on al jazeera, a ah, with

lu, i'm money inside indo har here, top stories on al jazeera, iraq's prime minister, has condemned an assassination attempt on him as a cowardly attack. and armed drone talk said mister for academia, residence in baghdad, in the early hours of sunday, he's unharmed, come find an explosion were heard in baghdad. green zone.
