First of all, about half of those are taken from a VERY old (1970s, IIRC) advanced anatomy textbook. A buddy of mine used the textbook as a reference for his biology analysis paper on the effects alcohol and drug abuse have on a fetus.
That being said, I can pretty much guarantee you that none of those pictures are even scarcely related to the depleted uranium left behind from ammunition. In fact, the residue left from this type of ammunition is so slight that a stock Geiger counter won't even register it above the natural radiation levels created by sunlight, etc.
Your computer, cell phone, laptop, PDA, cordless telephone, television [et al] generate more radiation than a depleted uranium round.
This is just an example of a bored 14-year old with half the facts or some dumbshit, hippy freshman science teacher who decided to make a "cool" flash video regarding something about which he is utterly fucking clueless.
Source of my information is the three hour debate I was required to participate in for my Politics 211 course, so I apologize that I don't have links. If anyone feels like looking all this up, feel free to link it.
