Fukushima Spiking All of a Sudden (1 Viewer)

Leave Mel Brooks out of this.

Looks more like Billy Barty.

How many plants do we have here near earthquake faults that incorporate a suspeneded liquid pool of deadly nuclear waste.

It's a high point of hubris and human folly to create a process that produces toxic waste that requires complex handling for tens of thousands of years and without handling and attention can threaten all life on the planet.

It's just a dumb thing.

Good thing this will only be an issue for another 30 to 40 years when they can finally get the reactors shutdown.

Fukushima: now for the tough part

The operator of Japan's crippled Fukushima nuclear plant will as early as this week begin removing 400 tonnes of highly irradiated spent fuel in a hugely delicate and unprecedented operation fraught with risk.

Mmm...yummy.

51 Sailors from USS Ronald Reagan Suffering Thyroid Cancer, Leukemia, Brain Tumors After Participating in Fukushima Nuclear Rescue Efforts

Charles Bonner, attorney representing sailors from the USS Ronald Reagan said "the crew members were not only going to the rescue by jumping into the water and rescuing people out of the water, but they were drinking desalinated sea water, bathing in it, until finally the captain of the USS Ronald Reagan alarmed people that they were encountering high levels of radiation."
Bonner says that as a result of this exposure, the 51 sailors have come down with a host of medical problems, "They have testicular cancer, they have thyroid cancers, they have leukemias, they have rectal and gynecological bleeding, a host of problems that they did not have before ... people are going blind, pilots who had perfect eyesight but now have tumors on the brain. And it’s only been 3 years since they went in." Bonner pointed out that these service men and women are young people, ages 21, 22, 23 years old and no one in their family had ever suffered any of these kinds of illnesses before.

So why the **** is there a media blackout in the U.S.?

All of the sources in that video were not U.S.

The only info I've been able to find are on 'conspiracy' websites, where there are some credible posters amongst the crazies. One thing some keep pointing out is the reaction in Calif. - apparently some people are trying to sell homes and move, but there are no buyers, especially along the coast.

 

[MrEMann83]

Well, what can we do? What foods should we avoid? What should we avoid doing?

 

[Joe OKC]

Yes.. This is some scary stuff....

Because the U.S. media is a joke and would rather report on Miley Cyrus being an inbred or whatever pro wrestling style theatrics are going on in D.C. than actual, significant world events. Of course, I also fault the American people for having an appetite for insignificant garbage. It's like an abusive codependent relationship. Just a vicious circle of awfulness on both sides.
