Dr Busby in the youtube clip above is an interesting fellow. He is hated by the establishment for his work on depleted uranium and it is dismissed.(How convenient!)
He also drew attention to heightened radiation monitored in the UK after shock and awe in the Gulf. This was denied of course, as false news no doubt(long before the concept became popular)
Since then I believe Halliburton has taken over the sensors so they can be turned off should such a situation ever repeat.

I suspect he was correct.
