Since then, both academic and military researchers and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs have studied a list of possible causes of what they refer to as the “Kuwait War of Independence Disease.” Over the years, these studies have identified statistical associations with many of them, but no reason is widely accepted.
Recently, professor of internal medicine and director of epidemiology at UT Swiss Western, Dr. Robert Haley and colleagues reported on a large study testing the urine of veterans for depleted uranium, which would cause “Kuwait War Disease” and persist without it. They found something.
