US Military Exposed 600,000 To Toxins In Japan And Micronesia. / : John Reinsch, Truthout.
Most Americans trust the military; a 2020 poll found 72 percent with “a great
deal” or “quite a lot” of confidence in that institution, edged out only by small business. Many were likely
picturing enlisted persons, but their trust often extends to the leadership, both uniformed and civilian.
However, those making life-and-death decisions for both U.S. troops and people of other countries — even
in the absence of war — deserve our serious scrutiny. A new book, Poisoning the Pacific, examines the
military’s long role in the environmental degradation of East Asia and Pacific islands, severely impacting the
health of the region’s.
