What price do you put on nuclear power and who is lying?

Isn’t it incredible that the Japanese, US and the IAEA are still playing with this Chernobyl type time bomb in Fukushima that continues releasing its deadly contamination each and every day? Those in the know fully understand that this entire plant is finished and cannot be controlled. The only option from day one was to accept the scale of the disaster in the same way as they did with Chernobyl and then bury it forever as its counterpart in Russia.

 

This disaster is on a much greater scale than Chernobyl (which only had one reactor) and this power station has six (three of which were supplied by US Giant GE (reactors 1, 3 and 6) and it was No. 1 that appeared to start the chain of events.

 

It is over a month since the Tsunami struck Japan and caused this catastrophic failure at the Fukushima Nuclear Power Station, that was built on the fault line and right on the coast. Why the devastating effects of a Tsunami had not been taken into account is beyond belief. The back up system (generators) are supposed to keep the pumps working to keep the temperature down but these failed almost immediately as they were swamped by the Tsunami waves.

 

Look at Japan’s latest gimmick to resolve this irresolvable problem - using bath salts:

“Japan’s government Monday told the operator of the crippled Fukushima nuclear plant to move quickly to stop radiation seeping into the ocean as desperate engineers resorted to bath salts to help trace a leak from one reactor.”

 

They are still playing games with millions of lives… The government talks about stopping radiation seeping into the ocean when it has been seeping into the sea since almost day one. Japan and many parts of the Pacific Ocean can now bathe in the radioactive seawater …

 

The Japanese, IAEA and Pro Nuclear lobby groups know that the explosions also took with them the spent fuel rods stored overhead the reactors, and thus allowed Plutonium and Uranium to escape into the atmosphere…

 

The radiation plume attached itself to the Pacific Jet Stream and was delivered to the West Coast of America with its centre on Oregon. The Jet Stream also split off the coast and allowed another stream to go up into Canada and down towards the Bay area of California and further South… this then spread around the US before hitching a ride on another Jet Stream over towards the UK and EU where it again split off the coast of Ireland with some heading up towards the North and some to the South… Nature has a unique way of mixing its environment.

 

As a direct result of the US-UK-France push to get Gaddhafi’s Oil, they have added depleted uranium (DU) into the earth’s environment on a massive scale. After the main air attacks on Libya with a vast array of cruise missiles, each of which carry around 350kg of DU, they have now totally contaminated the whole of Libya, adjacent countries such as Egypt, Tunisia, Algeria and Morocco etc., as stated in previous articles.

 

Thus, with the failure of the Japanese Government to identify the true situation at Fukushima and the actions of the US, UK, France and the Coalition, we have a highly contaminated atmosphere moving around the globe. What does this mean for us innocent victims of these negligent governments? I have already published many articles on the dangers of depleted uranium and one need only visit such places as Fallujah in Iraq or Gaza to find the answer. On the issue of Japan, let’s look at some professional input on this “Much greater than Chernobyl disaster.”

 

There will be an increase in many forms of cancer with the minimum being cancer of the thyroid, diabetes, severe birth defects (with short life spans), DNA mutations, brain tumours, mental disorders (remember that DU can penetrate the nose brain barrier) etc.

 

Here is an extract from an article:

Plutonium is being detected in many locations. Plutonium is THE most deadly substance known to exist, and it only exists as the result of human activity. One gram is enough to cause lethal cancer in a million people. Only a few kilo-grams is enough to kill everyone on the Earth. Because of the MOX fuel rods which contain plutonium before they are used, AND the fact that the fissioning of uranium produces plutonium as a result, an unbelievable amount of plutonium itself exists at Fukushima alone.  ONE fuel rod alone may contain more than enough to kill every person on Earth; over 600,000 fuel rods are believed to exist at the four reactors.


A spent fuel pool fire is FAR more dangerous than ‘just’ a melt-down…or two or three…” because there is often 30 or 40 times more fuel in the pools than in the reactor. A significant portion of the full load of many of the most dangerous fission products still remains in the fuel.

 

Dr. Richard Webb calculated the hazards of a spent fuel accident…WHICH HAS ALREADY OCCURRED AT FUKUSHIMA:

160,000 square miles rendered uninhabitable by Cesium-137 alone; 338,000 acres of land ruined agriculturally because of Strontium-90 fall-out; 200,000 square miles ruined by plutonium contamination alone – a lung cancer dust hazard. Since performing those calculations he has also concluded that radiation is a lot more harmful than he had assumed, and that in the first two days after a reactor accident, 30 to 100 million people would be seriously damaged (or killed) by radiation fall-out.

 

Contamination of the ocean is a MAJOR issue that is hardly being talked about. Massive amounts of highly radioactive water are pouring into the sea at Fukushima, and it’s not coming from the surface. Researchers believe that the water is coming from tunnels beneath the reactor complex; it is likely a combination of the sea-water pumped to try to cool the reactors leaking out below, as well as reactor coolant water leaking from damaged seals. All of this is returning to the sea, to be distributed globally by the local and trans-Pacific thermal conveyors.


And the massive rains that have been falling over the eastern Pacific and west coast of the USA are dropping a lot of the fall-out directly into the ocean. The negative health impacts on all oceanic life-forms are incalculable. This massive influx of radiation is going to destroy the marine food-chain and eco-systems.


In total honesty, this situation unfolding now is even worse than what scientists like Dr. Carl Sagan feared as an actual “nuclear war” in which thousands of war-heads would explode; the Fukushima scenario is releasing even greater amounts of radiation but less explosively. There are not yet any massive fire-works but the amount of nuclear material in a war-head of many megatons is contained in only a small number of fuel rods. Leuren Moret estimated that the actual ionising radiation already released equals that of literally millions of nuclear explosions.


Finally, because even the highest levels of radiation are essentially undetectable by our senses, the amounts that can kill or cause lethal effects are invisible, and the genetic damage resulting in birth defects and cancers may not show up for years or even generations. With the US government telling everyone NOT to prepare for a nuclear emergency, that radiation is actually a nutrient… I would say that, barring direct intervention by angelic extra-terrestrials, there is no hope for the future of human life on this planet.  Fukushima has already sealed that fate.

Before moving onto the words of another British expert there is talk around the scientific world that this accident was no accident but the work of the United States Naval Facility called HAARP which is based in Alaska. This facility has the ability to change weather patterns and more importantly to focus its tremendous energy onto a given location around the globe and cause an earthquake!!!

 

In its elementary form the technology is already used in the oil industry and I once saw an experiment whereby the energy from such a facility, or in this case from a down scaled model, caused the sand to vibrate and for a large rock to move. One oil company in offshore Oregon (US) actually caused a minor quake whilst carrying out their seismic work… One would have to ask the question why the person who discovered and designed this facility for peaceful purposes was forced to have it taken over by the military? Obviously because they saw its use as a weapon. It is common gossip around the traps that the Haiti quake was carried out by this facility as was the incident down in Chile and over in China… there is only one visual clue to its possibility and that is prior to such incidents there is an unusual colouring in the sky or in the clouds above… this was witnessed in Haiti, Chile and China… I will let you be the judge on this issue.

 

Dr Chris Busby, Scientific Secretary of the European Committee on Radiation Risk, understands the cover-ups by the IAEA, the UN and the Nuclear Lobby Groups. Keeping in mind the severity of the local situation in Japan - 3 million people live within 100 km of Fukushima and another 7 million within 200 km – he recommends that:

 

1.       The ECRR risk model has been applied to the 3 million people living in the 100 km radius of the Fukushima catastrophe. Assuming these people remain living there for one year, the number of excess cancers predicted by the method is approximately 200,000 in the next 50 years with 100,000 being diagnosed in the next 10 years. If they are evacuated immediately, the number will fall by a significant amount. For those 7 million living between 100 km and 200 km from the site, the predicted number of cancers is slightly greater with 220,000 extra cancers in the next 50 years and about 100,000 being expressed in the next ten years. These predictions are based on the ECRR risk model and also the findings of cancer risk on Sweden after the Chernobyl accident.

 

2.      The ICRP model predicts 2838 extra cancers in the 100 km population. The eventual yield will therefore be another test of the two risk models.

 

3.      Calculations based on official gamma dose rates published by the Japanese Ministry MEXT can be used to back calculate surface contamination at the positions of the measurements using accepted scientific methods. The results show that the IAEA reports have significantly under reported the contamination levels.

 

4.      It is recommended that urgent attention is given to making isotope specific ground contamination measurements.

 

5.      It is recommended that populations living within the 100 km zone to the North West of the site are immediately evacuated and the zone is made an exclusion zone.

 

6.      The ICRP risk model should be abandoned and all political decisions should be made on the basis of the recommendations of the European Committee on Radiation Risk www.euradcom.org. This is the conclusion of the eminent radiation risk experts who signed the 2009 Lesvos Declaration

 

7.      Investigation and legal sanctions should be brought against those who knowingly held back data from the public

 

8.      Investigation and legal sanctions should be brought against those minimising the health effects of this event in the media.

 

The UK is exercising unprecedented censorship at the BBC, SKY and many other outlets. The US pumps much money into the BBC and most of the general media is controlled by Rupert Murdoch.
