depleted uranium being used???

I would be very interested to know whether DU is being used by the US in Iraq.As US,UK and AUS troops are on the ground and expected to be there for some time won't they be subjected to this radiation from previous bombing and any new.If this material is not being used now it is an admission that it was illegal in the first place.Why hasn't Simon Crean brought this subject up,how many troops are going to come back sick and dying,and father deformed infants?Law suits will abound.
