With the Fukushima Disaster spiraling out of control, and with Tepco reporting they have spotted cracks in 8 places on the steel brace that holds a 120-meter vertical pipe standing between the number-1 and number-2 reactor. In an area that is contaminated with high levels of radiation measuring 10 sieverts per hour. TEPCO are now wondering how they would be able to send in workers without them

☢ Food label Will Tell You If You Are Eating Fuku Radiation - FAO Major Fishing Areas ☢

I had a closer look at the food label today on a can of tuna fish bought from the local store and I was expecting it to say something different than what I found. I normally check and see the label to find out where the tuna I bought was caught, but sometimes labels only specify where the food was packed.

However knowing it was packed near the Mediterranean Sea usually means that the tuna also was caught in that area or the Atlantic Ocean. Either way it's a safeguard against knowing if you are eating poison (radioactive poison that is).

Now reading food labels are a great way to know what you are actually eating but what I read today was pretty much a bunch of numbers or "area codes". The specific text on the label was something like caught in FAO Area 71,77,87. That didn't tell me much. So I had to investigate closer to find out what it means.

Well FAO is short for "Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations" and they have a list of the Major FAO fishing areas. So turns out my tuna was caught in the Pacific Ocean.. Too bad I had to throw it all away. The areas you need to stay away from are 61, 67, 71, 77 and 87 marked in red.

I know some people still believe the studies done to check Fukushima contamination in the Pacific Ocean showing the contamination in fish to not be that bad. We have all seen the maps of ocean currents and videos how the spread of fallout measuring theoretical radiation contamination in the sea and air. And there are many people that really still think that the radiation is hardly noticed.
But there is one thing with all those studies done that show the situation is far more severe than depicted by the figures. ALL STUDIES done have been built on LIES and FALSE DATA. TEPCO have been lying since day 1 of this disaster and have been feeding false data to the institutions and scientists working on these studies. Most radiation contamination maps only show the release of fallout in the air and water during a period of about 10 DAYS. 

But the truth is and TEPCO have ADMITTED THEY LIED ABOUT THE DISASTER AND DATA AND HAVE DONE SO FOR 2 YEARS. This disaster have now gone on for more than 2 years and the radioactive releases are still going on. Contaminated water is still being pumped out into the Ocean and fish on the East Coast of the USA are turning to goo. YES that's right fish turning literally to goo.

TEPCO you LIE - They lied to the children
They lied to the children
But the worst part is that the biologists and many, many scientists that have found alarming rates of radiation have been covering for TEPCO too along with politicians. Or lets say the Nuclear community. If they come out with the information they loose their jobs, funding or whatever little project they cling on to.

The truth is, if you take any study done about the Fukushima disaster and take the result and multiply the figures by 60 or 100 times you will be much more closer to the truth. And that my friends is a very good reason to stay away from any fish caught in the Pacific Ocean.

The Ivan Macfadyen's story about him sailing from Melbourne to Osaka on to San Francisco and seeing a dead ocean in horror at the severe lack of marine life have been going viral now. In the 28 days it took to get to Japan, he caught just two fish. No fish. No birds. Hardly a sign of life at all. Several news outlets have picked up the story. But they all seem to have left out the reason.

His boat had a vivid yellow paint job that never faded by sun or sea in years gone past. But now reacted with something in the waters off Japan, losing its sheen in a strange and unprecedented way.

Not likely to be tsunami-related, which would have been transported far from Japan's coast by now.

"After we left Japan, it felt as if the ocean itself was dead," Macfadyen said.

We hardly saw any living things. We saw one whale, sort of rolling helplessly on the surface with what looked like a big tumour on its head. It was pretty sickening.

Macfadyen have now signed up to fill in daily survey forms and collect samples for radiation testing by US academics. Radiation contamination is a significant concern in the wake of the tsunami and consequent nuclear power station failure in Japan.

Sailor's Discovery The Ocean Is Dead Because of Fukushima Radiation Fallout Corium Pollution Fish Pacific Sea
Sailor's Discovery - The Ocean Is Dead Because of Fukushima Corium Polluting Fish in Pacific with Radiation

Takashi Hirose is the author of Fukushima Meltdown: The World’s First Earthquake-Tsunami-Nuclear Disaster (2011)


A Letter to All Young Athletes Who Dream of Coming to Tokyo in 2020, and to Their Coaches and Parents:

On 7 September, 2013 Japan’s Prime Minister Shinzo Abe said to the 125th session of the International Olympic Committee, the following: Some may have concerns about Fukushima. Let me assure you, the situation is under control. It has never done and will never do any damage to Tokyo.

This will surely be remembered as one of the great lies of modern times. In Japan some people call it the “Abesolute Lie”. Believing it, the IOC decided to bring the 2020 Olympics to Tokyo. Japanese government spokespersons defend Abe’s statement by saying that radiation levels in the Pacific Ocean have not yet exceeded safety standards.

This recalls the old story of the man who jumped off a ten-storey building and, as he passed each storey, could be heard saying, “So far, so good”. We are talking, remember, about the Pacific Ocean – the greatest body of water on earth, and for all we know, in the universe.

Tokyo Electric Power Company – TEPCO – has been pouring water through its melted-down reactor at Fukushima and into the ocean for two and a half years, and so far the Pacific Ocean has been able to dilute that down to below the safety standard. So far so good. But there is no prospect in sight of turning off the water. Here are eight things you need to know.

1.


In a residential area park in Tokyo, 230 km from Fukushima, the soil was found to have a radiation level of 92,335 Becquerels per square meter. This is a dangerous level, comparable to what is found around Chernobyl 4 zone (the site of a nuclear catastrophe in 1986). One reason this level of pollution is found in the capital is that between Tokyo and

Fukushima there are no mountains high enough to block radioactive clouds. In the capital people who understand the danger absolutely avoid eating food produced in eastern Japan.

2.


Inside Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Reactors #1 - #3 the pipes (which had circulated cooling water) are broken, which caused a meltdown. This means the nuclear fuel overheated, melted, and continued to melt anything it touched. Thus it melted through the bottom of the reactor, and then through the concrete floor of the building, and sank into the ground. As mentioned above, for two and a half years TEPCO workers have been desperately pouring water into the reactor, but it is not known whether the water is actually reaching the melted fuel.

BORAX Experiments were destructive testing of boiling water reactors conducted by Argonne National Laboratory in the 1950s and 1960s. The left picture display Borax Reactor Explosion the Right Picture Fukushima Reactor Unit 3

If a middle-strength earthquake comes, it is likely to destroy totally the already damaged building. And as a matter of fact, in the last two and a half years earthquakes have continued to hit Fukushima. (And as an additional matter of fact, just as this letter was being written Fukushima was hit by another middle-strength earthquake, but it seems that the building held up one more time.So far so good.) Especially dangerous is Reactor #4, where a large amount of nuclear fuel is being held in a pool, like another disaster waiting for its moment.

3.


The cooling water being poured into the reactor is now considered the big problem in Japan. Newspapers and TV stations that previously strove to conceal the danger of nuclear power, are now reporting on this danger every day, and criticizing Shinzo Abe for the lie he told the IOC. The issue is that the highly irradiated water is entering and mixing with the ground water, and this leakage can’t be stopped, so it is spilling into the outer ocean. It is a situation impossible to control.

In August, 2013 (the month prior to Abe’s IOC speech) within the site of Fukushima Daiichi Reactor, radiation was measured at 8500 micro Sieverts per hour. That is enough to kill anyone who stayed there for a month. This makes it a very hard place for the workers to get anything done.

In Ohkuma-machi, the town where the Daiichi Nuclear Reactor is located, the radiation was measured in July, 2013 (two months before Abe’stalk) at 320 micro Sieverts per hour. This level of radiation would kill a person in two and a half years. Thus, over an area many kilometers wide, ghost towns are increasing.

4.


Dead Whale In Tokyo Bay after Fukushima Disaster
Dead Whale In Tokyo Bay after Fukushima
For the sake of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics, an important fact has been left out from reports that go abroad. Only the fact that irradiated water is leaking onto the surface of the ground around the reactor is reported.

But deep under the surface the ground water is also being irradiated, and the ground water flows out to sea and mixes with the seawater through fresh water springs under the sea. It is too late to do anything about this.

5.


If you go to the big central fish market near Tokyo and measure the radiation in the air, it registers at about 0.05 micro Sieverts – a little higher than normal level. But if you measure the radiation near the place where the instrument that measures the radiation of the fish is located, the level is two or three times greater (2013 measurement).

Japan Children eating what we call low level radioactive waste
Japan Children eating what we call low level radioactive waste
Vegetables and fish from around the Tokyo area, even if they are irradiated, are not thrown away. This is because the level established by the Japanese Government for permissible radiation in food– which if exceeded the food must not be sold – is the same as the permissible level of radiation in low-level radioactive wastes. Which is to say, in Japan today, as the entire country has been contaminated, we have no choice but to put irradiated garbage on the dinner table. The distribution of irradiated food is also a problem.

Food from near Fukushima will be sent to another prefecture, and then sent on, relabeled as produced in the second prefecture. In particular, food distributed by the major food companies, and food served in expensive restaurants, is almost never tested for radiation.

6.


In Japan, the only radiation from Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Reactors that is being measured is the radioactive cesium. However large amounts of strontium 90 and tritium are spreading all over Japan. Strontium and tritium’s radiation consists of beta rays, and are very difficult to measure. However both are extremely dangerous: strontium can cause leukemia, and tritium can cause chromosome disorder.


7.


Radiation Readings Fukushima Japan

More dangerous still: in order, they say, to get rid of the pollution that has fallen over the wide area of Eastern Japan, they are scraping off the top layer of the soil, and putting it in plastic bags as garbage. Great mountains of these plastic bags, all weather-beaten, are sitting in fields in Eastern Japan subject of course to attack by heavy rain and typhoons. Eventually the plastic will split open and the contents will come spilling out. When that happens, there will be no place left to take them.

8.


On 21 September, 2013 (again, as this letter was being composed) the newspaper Tokyo Shimbun reported that Tokyo Governor Naoki Inose said at a press conference that what Abe expressed to the IOC was his intention to get the situation under control. “It is not,” Inose said, “under control now.”

It’s a sad story, but this is the present situation of Japan and of Tokyo. I had loved the Japanese food and this land until the Fukushima accident occurred. But now…

My best wishes for your health and long life.

Radioisotopes in the Pacific Ocean. What's There? How Much? How Long?

The release of radioisotopes from the Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear disaster in March 2011 amounts to the largest ever accidental release of radiation into the ocean. The explosions initially released radioisotopes in the form of iodine-131, cesium-134 and cesium-137 from the reactors. All of these Nobel isotopes cause health problems.

In the weeks after Fukushima nuclear disaster, Ken Buesseler a marine chemist at Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, organized an expedition with scientists from different fields and institutions to investigate radioisotopes from the damaged nuclear plant that ended up in the ocean and marine life. They used nets to sample organisms and instruments to collect more than 1,500 water samples in 30 locations off Japan. Water and biological samples were sent to 16 labs in seven countries to detect levels of a variety of radioisotopes. The concentrations measured in early April 2011 were all the more alarming.

In June 2011, Buesseler led a quickly organized expedition aboard the research vessel Ka' imikai-o-Kanaloa that took a comprehensive look at the fate of the Fukushima radiation both in the open ocean and in marine life. Beginning 600 kilometers offshore and coming within 30 kilometers of the crippled nuclear plant, the research team sailed a sawtooth pattern, gathering water samples from as deep as 1,000 meters, and collecting samples of phytoplankton, zooplankton, and small fish. They also released two dozen drifters to track currents. These instruments move with to ocean currents over months and report their positions via satellite. Like their Japanese colleagues, Buesseler's team measured elevated levels of both cesium-137 and the telltale cesium-134 in the water they collected.

Please also note that the report here have excluded 296.100 tons of radioactive reactor water that have leaked into the Pacific Ocean since this disaster began at the amount of 300-400 tons per day and which continue to leak to this very day.  

 

So 100.000 times more Cesium-137 reported is on the LOW SIDE.

Fukushima Released 100.000 Times more Cesium-137 Into Surface Ocean Waters Than Chernobyl or Nuclear Weapons Testing

☢ [Caught On Camera] Alaska Wild Grizzly Bear Dies From Radiation Heart Attack ☢

Video showing an Alaskan wild grizzly bear that runs uphill and then suddenly dies from an heart attack was caught on camera at Kodiak Island, Alaska, USA.

There have been many, many reports of strange animal deaths this past year and the most recent one from Alaska is the wild grizzly bear the simply drops dead in it's tracks.


The amounts of Cesium-137 and 134 to name a few radioisotopes from the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster have been so great that we are already seeing massive deaths of animals in both the Pacific Ocean and on the Coasts where radiation have become more concentrated.

To date some 300.000 Tons of radioactive reactor water at about 300-400 tons each day have been flowing into the Pacific Ocean with no end in sight in an desperate attempt to cool the fuel pools and meltdowns.


Cesium in particular is a known cause of heart attacks. Cesium-137 is a potassium analog so it gets absorbed by the body the same way potassium is. Cesium-137 tends to concentrate in the heart muscle and cause heart attacks.


It can't be excluded that this bear died from an virus infection or disease instead of radioactive Cesium stored in it's heart. However the bear did not act in any strange manner before the death either, the bear did not show any such symptoms. It simply got exhausted running up the hill and died on the spot.

☢ How Many Bananas Do You Need To Eat To Get a Metallic Taste In Your Mouth? ☢

The USS Ronald Reagan was only a mile away from the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant and became contaminated with radiation during the Fukushima Disaster 2011. Since then many of the sailors have become ill and are showing Radiation Sickness.

How in the world can a state of the art ship that was made to withstand battle not even protect the crew against radiation. USS Ronald Reagan was sitting in a nuclear plume for five plus hours, how is it possible that they suck up nuclear contaminated waste into the water filtration system and think for one minute that there’s no health risk to the sailors!

"Lindsay Cooper who was on the deck, it started to snow and then she tasted this metallic taste in her mouth, and so did the others."

 

The USS Ronald Reagan crew show signs of Radiation Sickness, Radiation Madness, Radiation Burns, all from the fallout from Fukushima. But no doctors will admit to it, and they are left outside of the system. All along "Nuclear Experts" are saying everything is fine, dont worry!

Could it be that they have been all deceived by bananas?


There seems to be a lot of "Nuclear Experts" around these days that say the radiation you get from eating bananas is equal to man made Radioactive Uranium and Plutonium waste. Tim Worstall said so, he even goes on to say that we all now can run our Nuclear Reactors on bananas! That and "The Fukushima Nuclear Disaster Will Kill No One"..

You can look for yourself, here's his article on Forbes!

Tim Worstall said we can run our Nuclear Reactors on bananas!
Tim Worstall Go Bananas over Fukushima

So how many bananas do you need to eat to get a metallic taste in your mouth?

"One medium banana packs about 422 milligrams of potassium, about 11 percent of the 4,700 milligrams adults should aim to get daily."

Could it really be that the human body and most living things on earth can handle potassium!

Or should we be alarmed over the fact that the middle east have gotten their hands on banana centrifuges. These pictures taken of the Super Top Secret Iran Banana Centrifuge program leaked recently, show that they are hard at work to weaponize bananas!


Voice of Russia – US Edition, AUDIO Jan. 15, 2014:

At 7:30 in

Paul C. Garner, attorney for Navy sailors exposed to Fukushima radioactive contamination: They’re out there in the elements breathing it in, soaking it in. According to Lindsay Cooper who was on the deck, it started to snow and then she tasted this metallic taste in her mouth, and so did the others. And they were having snow ball fights and joking around about it, until they were warned that it was radioactive and they should not be doing that.

At 9:45 in

Garner: They were considered to be too highly radioactive [...] The Reagan sailed around for weeks before they could find a friendly port to land in. By that time the people on board were pretty well toast. And the Reagan itself became contaminated. After that the Reagan spent a year and half in Bremerton, Washington for what they considered to be routine maintenance, but it was anything but routine. They decontaminated the vessel as best they could, and they shipped the contaminated debris over to Hanford.

Video Transcript from 15:15 minutes in to 17:30 min


Yukiko Kameya can never return home again
Evacuated from Futaba, Japan. Can never return home.
YUKIKO KAMEYA, Former Resident of Futaba, Japan (Evacuated From Town Near Fukushima): [Translated] When I fled from Futaba I could not even talk. I could not even have friends over or anything, but my people encouraged me to be standing here right now. Without any peoples help I could not be here. That's why I appreciate them and want to join them in their cause.

Reporter: What is your message to the Japanese government and the world about nuclear power?


YUKIKO KAMEYA, Former Resident of Futaba, Japan: I don't want anyone in the world to experiece what we have experienced, we have housing in Futaba but there is nothing there. Everything was robbed. All the furniture was brokened, I cant really go back there, we know it. We don't want anyone in the world to be in the situation that we are in. There are 59 children with thyroid problem, and there are hundreds more on the way. The real problem in Fukushima is children can not go out and play. They have to stay inside and this is not the way children should grow up. I don't want anyone in the world or Japan to experience this type of situation for children. So I want to stop Nuclear Facilities right now and I don't want them to be continued.


Reporter: Do you think you will ever be able to return to your home?

YUKIKO KAMEYA, Former Resident of Futaba, Japan: The Futaba where I live is not livable and the government say so. So I know we are never going back in my entire life. But for the Fukushima Prefecture it is still not safe, the radiation level is still very high. So I don't think it is safe and I don't think we will go back there.

Reporter: And what is your assessment of how the government has handled the crisis?

YUKIKO KAMEYA, Former Resident of Futaba, Japan: We expected our government to do a better job when this accident happened. But they don't really do what you want. They ignore all the problems we’re having. There are many young people between 15 and 19 in Fukushima who are in high school who have died suddenly. For example, this morning I saw an online story that a 17-year-old died from Leukemia. In the morning when his mother came to wake him up, he was found dead in bed. Everyone says this was caused by the radiation levels from the nuclear accident. But our government never recognized it, and there are 59 children with thyroid cancer, they’ll never recognize it as being caused by the radiation.

This is a rush transcript. Copy may not be in its final form.


AMY GOODMAN: Music from the film Nuclear Nation: The Fukushima Refugees Story. This is Democracy Now!, democracynow.org, The War and Peace Report. This is the third day of our broadcast from Tokyo, Japan, and the final day. We are talking about moving in on the third anniversary of the Fukushima disaster. Nineteen thousand people died or went missing on that day, March 11th, 2011, and the days afterwards, when the earthquake triggered a tsunami, and three of the reactors at the Fukushima nuclear power plant melted down.

We’re joined right now by Futaba’s former mayor, Katsutaka Idogawa. For years, he embraced nuclear power. Now he has become a vocal critic. He is featured in the film Nuclear Nation.

We welcome you to Democracy Now! And thank you for traveling two hours to join us here at the studios of NHK International for this conversation. Mayor, explain what happened on that day, special thanks to Mary Joyce, who is translating for you today, on that day, March 11, 2011, and the days afterwards, when you decided it was time for the thousands of people who lived in your town, Futaba, to leave.

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] On that day, there was an earthquake of the scale of something we’d never experienced before. It was a huge surprise. And at the time, I was just hoping that nothing had happened to the nuclear power plant. However, unfortunately, there was in fact an accident there. And then I worked with the many residents, and thinking about how I could fully evacuate them from the radiation.

AMY GOODMAN: You made a decision to evacuate your town before the Japanese government told the people in the area to do this, but not before the U.S. government told Americans to leave the area and other governments said the same.

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] Yes, the Japanese government’s information to evacuate became much later than that, and my mistake at the time was initially waiting to hear that. If I had made the decision even three hours earlier, I would have been able to prevent so many people from being so heavily exposed to radiation; however, as a result of that, unfortunately, several hundreds of people were directly affected by this radiation.

AMY GOODMAN: Where did you decide to move the whole town?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] I was originally thinking about this at the time of the earthquake on March 11 first. However, at first, I was waiting to rely on the government information to decide the timing for this.

AMY GOODMAN: And so, you moved the town to a school in the outskirts of Tokyo, is that right? The entire town to an abandoned school? Explain how you set up your government, your whole community, in this one building.

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] Right at the start, we were unfortunately not able to evacuate all of the residents, and some actually did remain within parts of Fukushima prefecture. And as a result of this, there was actually a gap created between those who were still remaining within the greater Fukushima prefecture area and those who evacuated to Saitama, outside of Tokyo. And the reason for this is we had no access to communication, to information, to mobile phones.

AMY GOODMAN: And so, how long did people stay? How many people were in this school? And what role did the government play? How has the government helped the refugees?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] We were able to evacuate around 1,400 of the residents to Saitama prefecture, outside of Tokyo. So they were saved from the initial first exposure, the most serious exposure to radiation at the time. But many of them, unable to deal with the situation, gradually started to return to different parts of Fukushima prefecture.

AMY GOODMAN: You have not returned back to your town?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] Yes, I am still living in evacuation away from the heavily radiated areas.

AMY GOODMAN: Can you talk about the meetings that you have had with the government? You have had a remarkable association of nuclear mayors in Japan, the mayors who live—who preside over towns that have nuclear power plants in them.

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] From before the accident, we had always been strongly calling upon the government, and also TEPCO, to make sure that no accident was ever allowed to happen. And they were always telling us, "Don’t worry, Mayor. No accident could ever happen." However, because this promise was betrayed, this is why I became anti-nuclear.

AMY GOODMAN: I want to go to a clip from Atsushi Funahashi’s new documentary film about the former residents of Futaba, where the Fukushima Daichi nuclear power plant is partly located. The film is called Nuclear Nation: The Fukushima Refugees Story. And we’re going to go to a part of the film that shows a part of this remarkable meeting of government officials with the atomic mayors, the nuclear mayors of Japan.


BANRI KAIEDA: [translated] The future of energy production and Japanese energy policy is currently being debated, and this is something we’ve communicated to you. Regarding the details of this review, I believe it’s important to clearly define the terms as soon as possible. Thank you very much.


MARC CARPENTIER, Narrator: The industry minister leaves his seat in the first five minutes.


GOSHI HOSONO: [translated] The central and prefectural governments are working on the annual health check guidelines. Based on what we’ve researched until now, the impact of radiation on children appears negligible. However, we will endeavor to keep you apprised of any developments.


MARC CARPENTIER: The nuclear crisis minister follows suit, citing official duties.


CHAIRPERSON: [translated] And now, we’d like to open the floor for comments. Please raise your hands. OK, go ahead.


MAYOR KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] I’m representing Futaba. I want to know why we’re being made to feel this way. It’s frustrating. What does the nuclear power committee think? When you came and explained it to us, you lied, saying it was safe and secure. But we, who trusted and believed you, can no longer live in our own town.

AMY GOODMAN: That last voice was the mayor at the time of Futaba, Katsutaka Idogawa, who is with us today in our Tokyo studio. Futaba is where part of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant is located. He was speaking, addressing this meeting of government officials and nuclear mayors from around Japan in August of 2011. You just heard, oh, the voices of Goshi Hosono, who was the nuclear crisis minister of Japan, and Banri Kaieda, a minister of the economy, trade and industry. And after each of them spoke, they politely took their leave of the room before the mayors could address them, so they did not hear the Futaba mayor’s statement about the lies from the government. Talk about that particular meeting.

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] At the time, we were calling for a strong response and attention from the government since the disaster. However, they didn’t even try to listen to what we were calling for. And they continued to not even try to make efforts to fulfill their responsibilities or promise to us. And so, they continued to appear before us, those who were suffering directly from the disaster, but instead of listening to something which would maybe be difficult for their ears to hear, they would just leave the room, not even listen to us at all. And within those who were left in the room were some government officials, including some who were directly the ones who told me that no accident would ever happen. However, no matter what I would try to appeal and say to them, it would not have any effect, so instead I turned around and appealed and spoke to my colleagues, my fellow residents, and I tried to tell them what was really happening, the situation.

AMY GOODMAN: Former Mayor Katsutaka Idogawa, you were a fierce proponent of nuclear power. You were pushing for two more reactors to be built even closer to Futaba than the others. You were proud of getting tens of millions of dollars for your town for hosting these reactors. How did you make your transition to being one of the most vocal government officials against all nuclear power?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] I had been supporting the nuclear power plants in our town on the condition that no accident, no disaster, would be allowed to occur. It was not necessarily that I was actually totally in favor of the nuclear power plants; however, the situation that was in places without the nuclear power plants there, our city would be losing the financial benefits and perhaps unable to go forward economically. The city was actually on the brink of bankruptcy beforehand. And so, in order to try and prevent the city from going into this kind of economic breakdown, I saw that building the new two reactors was perhaps the only way.

AMY GOODMAN: I want to go to a clip, another clip of Nuclear Nation, that gives us a little background on the town of Futaba.


MARC CARPENTIER: Futaba’s farming history goes back over a thousand years. In winter months, people had to leave town for work in the city. Reactors 5 and 6 came online in 1978 and ’79. Money flowed in from the government, and the townspeople found themselves with lots of extra cash. They built roads, a library, a sprawling sports center, and made major upgrades to the infrastructure.

AMY GOODMAN: Nuclear Nation, talking about nuclear refugees, the nuclear refugees of Futaba. And we’re joined by the former mayor, who made the decision, on his own, right after the earthquake, to move his entire town, to evacuate it to Tokyo, being deeply concerned about the levels of radiation and feeling that the government was lying to them about the dangers in the area. This was a mayor, Katsutaka Idogawa, who was fiercely for nuclear power, was proud to be able to get two more reactors in his town to build the economy, to get tens of millions of dollars, and then turned around after the meltdown, after the earthquake, the tsunami and the ultimate meltdown of three of the six existing reactors.

Mayor, right now, you are not the only one who turned around in office. Naoto Kan, the prime minister, also a fierce proponent, is now speaking out all over the world against nuclear power. But just this week, as we flew in to Japan, the government of Prime Minister Abe, the most conservative government since World War II, announced that it wants to build more reactors in Japan. How are you organizing? What are you doing now?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] Without being able to even deal with the consequences of the Fukushima nuclear disaster, the position to promote nuclear power still is something which is just unthinkable to me. And I believe it’s really important for the prime minister to look at what he’s actually been responsible for and have regret and really deal with what they have done, before they can actually go forward and do anything. And the disaster now is bigger than anything we can cope with. It’s a disaster on an international level, and huge consequences, so he needs to really recognize this.

AMY GOODMAN: So who’s driving the push for more nuclear power? The country, already 30 percent dependent for its energy on nuclear power, had plans to make the country more than 50 percent by 2030. But after this catastrophe, who is pushing for these nuclear power plants?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] The nuclear power system is constructed to use huge amounts of public tax. And this is a very tasty, shall we say, position or situation for the large corporations. They were really behind this push. However, much public taxpayers’ money is being used behind this. And I believe it’s so important to prevent our taxes from being used for any of this kind.

AMY GOODMAN: What has happened to the Fukushima refugees today?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] There are so many people who want to evacuate but don’t have the means to be able to actually do that and are still living in this situation, who want to do something, but they have no support. And another huge issue is those who are still forced to be living within the greater Fukushima prefecture area do not have access to full health measurements, health treatments, and the kind of support that they need. And they’re also told that any diseases or sickness that they have is not caused by radiation.

AMY GOODMAN: You are traveling the world. Can you tell us the countries you’ve been to and why you’re speaking there?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] I’m working with people all around the world, speaking with people who are working against nuclear power in their own areas.

AMY GOODMAN: You went to Finland?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] Yes.

AMY GOODMAN: Why?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] I went to Finland to speak with people who are working against the construction of nuclear power plants in their areas, because they knew our situation and what happened to us, and we’re trying to work together to prevent this from ever happening to them.

AMY GOODMAN: In the United States, a nuclear power plant has not been built in close to 40 years, very much because of the anti-nuclear movement and the cost of what it means to build a nuclear power plant and what to do with the waste. But President Obama has talked about a nuclear renaissance and is pushing for the building of several new plants for the first time in decades. What message would you share with him?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] The nuclear power disaster is not just of Fukushima. This is a disaster of all humanity, of the entire world. There is a Japanese saying, and its meaning is that, well, any kind of disaster, three times is the limit. And we have had the three large disasters: one in the United States, one at Chernobyl, and now Fukushima. The Earth will not be able to cope with any further nuclear disasters. For the children of the future, the future generations, I hope that we can stop this now.

AMY GOODMAN: What is the alternative?

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] Well, I’ve heard in U.S. there is shale gas, for example. But as well as other forms of energy, I believe it’s also very important now to look at how we can have lifestyles that rely less on energy, that use less energy more efficient in our homes and in our offices. And Prime Minister Koizumi is also suggesting this.

AMY GOODMAN: Prime Minister Koizumi, very significant that a conservative former prime minister also came out against nuclear power.

KATSUTAKA IDOGAWA: [translated] Even he looked at the actual situation. And I believe that Prime Minister Koizumi really visited places affected by nuclear power to really see what is happening, and he’s really speaking sincerely now.

AMY GOODMAN: I want to thank you very much for joining us on Democracy Now!, Katsutaka Idogawa, former mayor of the town of Futaba, where part of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant is located. The entire town was rendered uninhabitable by the nuclear meltdown. This is Democracy Now!, democracynow.org, The War and Peace Report. Stay with us. After break, crowdsourcing radiation monitoring. We’ll look at how a group called Safecast has helped Japanese civilians turn their smartphones into Geiger counters. Stay with us.

Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins is a 24-year-old legislator representing Sitka in the Alaska House of Representatives, and in his newsletter we can read about his "expert" opinions on the Fukushima Radiation Fallout hitting Alaska. Talking to Dr. Ken Buesseler another leading expert on the matter.

Alaska wont test Radiation levels in fish because as our 24 year old "expert" Jonathan so reassuringly puts it..

Fukushima Fallout Released 100.000 Times more Cesium 137 than Chenrobyl or Nuclear Weapons Testing"the solution to (Fukushima Radiation) pollution is in fact dilution."
Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins said.

"To be clear: there may well be more radiation in a banana (and who doesn't love bananas?) than off our Alaska coast." Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins said.

There may well be reason for Jonathan to think that "Alaska can run Nuclear Ractors on Bananas". Because "Nuclear Experts" in the media say so!

The science behind the newsletter and from Dr. Ken Buesseler of Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution can also be read in the following posts

☢ [IMAGE] Fukushima 100.000 Times More Cesium-137 Than Chernobyl or Nuclear Weapons Testing ☢

Please also take note that Jonathan Kreiss-Tomkins was not even born when the Chernobyl Disaster happened, the 100.000 times more Cesium 137 along with Uranium and MOX Fuel Plutonium that the Fukushima Disaster have been emitting and dumping into the Ocean and Atmosphere have never been seen in the history off mankind.


So far 314.700 Tons of Radioactive Reactor Water have been flowing into the Pacific Ocean and it continues to do so and have been doing so from the start 1049 days ago at an amount of 400 tons daily.

Ocean is dead because of Fukushima

The simulations, scientific studies shown to the public have NOT taken this into the calculations to date! There have now been 314.700 Tons more radiation flowing into the Pacific Ocean and that number is missing in all studies and simulations.

Hello everyone, a dear reader AWe from Costa Rica (Pacific Ocean Side) have just shared with us some of the horrors that she is witnessing first hand here on the Radioactive Chat.

Washing up on the Coast, massive deaths and sickness of the sea life, fishermen and surfers with all sorts of health issues like chronic stomach pain, odd skin rashes & peeling..

I decided it was best for you to hear this in her own words and show you the photos she sent that to me show nothing but massive genetic damage caused by the ongoing Fukushima disaster..

The really sad part about all this to me is that this is genetic damage by radiation that can never be undone. Future generations wont see pretty sand dollars and amazing sea life. At this point in time the sea life is forever damaged, in the future however the sea life and everything affected will most likely be extinct.

AWe: Hola from Costa Rica...Pacific Coast side...honestly, seeing severe genetic mutations already.. lots of ecosystem devastation & very strange changes to say the least

JD: Hola, nice to hear from you. Do you see mutations in vegetation? Or is it more in the sea life?
8 Apr 14, 10:34 AM

AWe: Thanks for the inquiry JD, seriously..we kind of need that, it feels like a hug. Pura Vida. Yes, we are seeing this a little in plant life (not food), & very strange things in the sea life.
8 Apr 14, 12:41 PM

AWe: I have detailed pictures. Now things are washing up that long time local fisherman cannot identify. LOTS of sand dollars & blowfish in particular. All the sand dollars have holes burned through them.
8 Apr 14, 02:43 PM

AWe: The snails aren't able to hold onto the rocks upside down anymore, they fall off?!? They have red sores or something & struggle until they die.

AWe: The crabs are mutating in lots of ways, so many to even explain here in these few lines. Huge gross appendages, monstrous deformities.
8 Apr 14, 02:46 PM

AWe: Again, I have pictures of this. I just don't know where to send them or if they will even get there. I hope this is a secure chat line!! hahaha
8 Apr 14, 02:48 PM

AWe: The reason being, I have already lost my last computer & phone to software virus' after I started posting them up in December. Other things happened too.
8 Apr 14, 02:49 PM

AWe: Anyway, I am a real person & this is really happening to us. The surfers here are starting to feel ill in weird ways, & I searched for 5 hours yesterday to find 4 shells.
8 Apr 14, 02:51 PM

AWe: I haven't found something totally normal in about a month and a half. We lived in a pristine environment really, I can't even begin to describe. Entonces, gracias Radioactive Chat community!!

JD: You could send me pictures if you can and I'll post then on here for you
8 Apr 14, 03:16 PM

AWe: Ps.Just to be thorough, one small red crab species does not seem to be affected that much, & I forgot to mention our 7 month baby kittens have weird paws & exhibit behavior like squirrels & dogs...?
8 Apr 14, 03:19 PM

AWe: Ok!! My day has begun in the jungle here, so I have to tend to the chores & cannot stay online. However, later today I will compile them & send them off!! Thank you for the forum.

8 Apr 14, 03:31 PM

JD: Thanks got the pics, I'll scale them down and try and post all pics. I'm no marine biologist but there is something very wrong with the cellular division on these sand dollars
8 Apr 14, 03:47 PM

AWe: I just need to be more precise on my previous explanations..especially if the scientific community ever reads this, because every detail counts. It's also very worth the risk to inform people.

AWe:Also want to clarify that many numerous strange skeletons & unidentifiable parts of sea creatures wash up every day now. Also a massive amount of sand dollars & blowfish bones/skulls.
9 Apr 14, 05:24 PM

AWe:Every single dead sand dollar washing up has holes in either the front, back, or both. It looks like the actual creature is melting out of its shell, or a reaction from the inside out.
9 Apr 14, 05:27 PM

AWe: Sand dollars are pearly white here, & these we are now finding contain various shades of purple & green. Usually containing both pigments, or just green & covered with hair sometimes.
9 Apr 14, 05:31 PM

AWe: Yes, their cell division is obviously weird & almost all are asymmetrical or mutated in some way. They are not forming perfectly & the two different types are now sharing unique traits w/ each other.
9 Apr 14, 05:37 PM

AWe: I first noticed the snails around the beginning of January. On a walk I would see many upside down & struggling. I would assist them, & later return to find more than before.
9 Apr 14, 05:41 PM

More Genetic Mutations Sea Life Costa Rica - Photo 2
AWe:I have not seen one alive for at least a week. I have been searching hard as well, only to discover that the tide pools do not exist here anymore & it is just pools of foamy water containing no life.
9 Apr 14, 05:45 PM

AWe: Something is obviously going on with the shells & tide pools as well. I know the way they form is kind of a mystery, but these are not forming correctly at all. They form open already or just one side
9 Apr 14, 05:47 PM

AWe: Oh, I forgot to mention again that all the snails have red/purple sore on their bodies(usually white/clear), which I assume is the reason they could not hold onto the rocks while inverted.
9 Apr 14, 05:49 PM

AWe: The Fantasma crab seems to be the only one unaffected, or so it appears. Their population is rapidly multiplying. Another blue crab with spots is now growing orange claws & spikes on their head...?

9 Apr 14, 05:52 PM

AWe:Halloween crabs are growing larger than normal appendages, as are the other species which have one arm bigger than the other. Now I see them so pronounced that the crab just drags it around.
9 Apr 14, 05:55 PM

AWe:Also, strange things with their shells, eye color, color in general. Huge deviations concerning odd numbers of legs, more legs on one side, & hairy 'spider legs' becoming prominent features.
9 Apr 14, 05:56 PM

AWe: I am also very worried about the fishermen here. Everything from strange foot fungus that refuses to go away even after the nail is removed, to chronic stomach pain, odd skin rashes & peeling.
9 Apr 14, 05:59 PM

AWe: A lot of weird melted (emphasis on MELTED) plastic trash has been washing up in the tideline mixed in with all the dead ocean life. Massive amounts of trash have been washing up here since 2011.
9 Apr 14, 06:00 PM

AWe: I have painfully decided to stop swimming or surfing anymore. I was also walking a lot in the water for research in the newly present foam & yellow brown bubbly water that is everywhere here.
9 Apr 14, 06:02 PM

AWe:Then the skin started peeling of my feet & I was getting horrible skin rashes. Not like cracked dry skin though, long sections were peeling off, exposing open layers underneath.
9 Apr 14, 06:04 PM

AWe: So, I hope those details are helpful in terms of the current state of the ocean here. I have left out many other details, although it is most certainly affecting the entire ecosystem. Gracias & thanks

I would like to add that what AWe have been doing here is greatly appreciated, this is the kind of stories you wont get on the news. Big thanks!

And I'm really hoping more people would join in and contribute if only a little bit in this effort, as summer approaches for the rest of us every little thing helps to spread the word. 

Think about this, if you stand by and do nothing when a crime is committed you would be charged as an accomplice. And even if the main criminal (TEPCO) is not charged or convicted. You could be prosecuted!

So don't just stand there, do something! Write something, paint something, sing something, record something, take a picture.. Anything!

This is a short video showing the lasting effects of radiation on biological systems in Chernobyl called The Animals of Chernobyl, and now also showing how the same effects now can be seen in Fukushima after the Fukushima Disaster.



The Animals of Chernobyl - Mutated Apple
Mutated Apple in Chernobyl
In 1986 an explosion and fire at the nuclear reactor at what was then the Soviet union in Chernobyl Ukraine, launched an plume of radioactive fallout that rendered a large swath of the region here uninhabitable.

Since then the creation of a 1000 square mile exclusion zone prohibiting human activity has led some to declare the area an restored eden, brimming with wild life.

But for more than an decade Timothy A. Mousseau an American scientist has conducted an extensive biological survey here, and his studies have shown that life has been far more slow to recover than previously believed.

Timothy A. Mousseau, PH.D.
The Animals of Chernobyl - Mutated Birds Tumours
Mutated Birds with Tumours Chernobyl
It is a perfect area for biological studies because we see a lot of diversity of plants and animals, it is one of the hotter areas in the Chernobyl zone and so from our previous working now this level of chronic exposure is above that what most species will tolerate.

This year we have been looking at these small rodents, we have been looking at spiders.

Earlier this year we were here working with the birds, we find that the abundance of many species of birds are depressed in these areas of high contamination, leading to an overall decrease in the biodiversity on the order of 50 percent fewer species in hot areas than there should be if there wasn't radioactivity in the area.

Timothy A. Mousseau says he have seen much higher frequency of tumours and physical abnormalities, like deformed beaks among birds compared with those from uncontaminated areas.

There is a heavy steam event taking place at Fukshima reactor building 4 at this very moment!

The livecam closest to the reactor building 4 is the only one that display the steam event taking place. The JNN livecam is currently offline showing a "green screen" and the Futaba traffic cam is not picking up anything. And the other livecam showing reactor buildings 1 and 2 does not pick up anything but a little bit of the ongoing radioactive releases.

The forecast for the next few days and weeks for people living in the Northern Hemisphere will be radioactive rain with a tad of sunshine and airborne radiation.  

And remember scientists say one medium banana packs about 422 milligrams of potassium, about 11 percent of the 4,700 milligrams adults should aim to get daily. So don't go eating any bananas this week, the added potassium could kill you! That will be all for today's radioactive news.

Velella Jelly Fish Mass death
I'm sure you all have been following the news lately, and heard all the headlines about the mass amounts of dead fish and sea life washing up on the beaches on the west coast all the way up to Alaska. Well it's all the way down the coast too. Mexico have now banned Bluefin tuna fishing.

But in case you have forgotten, before I start the post, here are a few of the most recent headlines (between the end of July to the start of August 2014) about the 2014 apocalyptic mass death of sea life in the Pacific Ocean happening as we speak..

[VIDEO]“Mysterious die off of young salmon” in Pacific Northwest — “Healthy… and then they die” heading out to sea — “Far less plankton than normal. There are too many questions” Researchers now testing for plankton and Fukushima contamination off West Coast

[VIDEO]Alaska: “Scientists alarmed by new mystery disease” 
Pacific Northwest: “Alarming changes”  “Couldn’t believe my eyes” “Scientists really stumped… It’s kind of an alien thing” “Gotten much, much worse… a horror show… could wreak havoc on entire ecosystems from Mexico to Alaska”

[Enenews]b278 trillion Bq of plutonium released from Fukushima reactors. Over 200 times higher than amount reported by Tepco “Highly radiotoxic when incorporated into human body” as it decays

[VIDEO] Huge increase in dead and sick sea mammals on California coast. Unprecedented numbers, annual record broken in 7 months. Starving,drooling, brain damaged, suffering seizures. Sea lions ‘mysteriously’ vanishing on other side of Pacific. Experts: We don’t know what’s happening

[Audio] Over 1,750 navy sailors suffer from ‘ill-defined conditions’ after exposure to Fukushima radiation while aboard USS Reagan.‘Significant increases’ in male infertility and child birth complications. Dozens have thyroid disorders, many spontaneous abortions. Veteran: ‘Extreme measures’ used to cover this up

[VIDEO] Millions of fish dead at Oregon coast. “Craziest thing I’ve ever seen”.“You can’t blame people for being alarmed”. Aquarium: “It kind of looks like the apocalypse, especially big numbers, but this is a sign that anchovies are doing good"

[VIDEO] Millions of fish found dead on California coast. 3 major fish kills in 2 weeks. Unidentified ‘goo’ floating nearby; Police clear out beach, call health officials to investigate

“Worst he’s ever seen” says Alaska boat captain. Fishermen “talking about Fukushima, convinced it has something to do with it”. Salmon “not showing up,  many have lesions or worms and parasites”. Crabs “more easily damaged, a lot of dead catch” Herring, cod, halibut, pollock catches “dropping off cliff”.

[VIDEO]Fukushima debris “waist high” on Canadian island; “Catastrophic death” trapped in nets, it’s horrifying; 15-mile long lines of floating trash. Journalist: Radioactive tsunami debris found far from Fukushima plant. Global concern over spread of contamination

[VIDEO] Mounds of millions of jellyfish-like creatures wash up on Pacific beaches across multiple states.“They lined entire Oregon Coast”. Seen for first time in a great many years. Official: “They just covered the sea surface. as far as we could see”. Thought to mix with ones from Japan

[VIDEO] CBS: This is really disturbing, sea stars dying by the millions on West Coast. Like the Black Death, only faster and deadlier. ‘Mystery plague’ affecting 20+ species. TV: Disappears from Orange County coast over 2 week period — Expert: “Largest epidemic ever in ocean. Something has changed in marine environment to lead to this”

[Enenews] AP: Marine birds disappearing in Pacific Northwest. Significant ecological shift, crashes in many species. “Something’s happening on a big level, but what is it”. Herring problem may be far worse than revealed, result of contamination? Mexico suddenly bans bluefin tuna fishing, US may be next.


UPDATE FROM CANADA COAST LINE!
Streamed live on 10 Aug 2014 
The entire 200 kilometers we checked of Canadian Pacific Coast Line was devoid of all life , recovery is highly unlikely . This presentation will be followed tonight with a Q & A session at 8 pm pacific Canada time on this same site beautifulgirlbydana . Watch the live presentation Aug 10th 2014 at 1 pm BC Pacific time in Canada on beautifulgirlbydana


So the main "theme" these so called "scientists" keep saying is that they don't know what the cause of this mass death could be.. They stand there acting stupid saying what it might be. But non of them dear to say the obvious, they wont for the life of them say the R-word. It's kind of sad that they choose to sacrifice the future health of their own offspring, children and grandchildren for a low income paycheck. Scientists, Doctors, Biologists, Politicians to name a few professions that are dealing with the problems all choose to do this.

Studies show Doctors are the most trusted profession while politicians are the least trusted, however I strongly urge you all to treat these people as liars until they can even earn your trust. You should not respect any of these because most of them only do it for a paycheck.

On with the pictures, the following pictures have been taken in Costa Rica 2014, and AWe will explain some of the things that we are looking at below. Clicking the picture give you the full size and also starts the picture "slideshow".

Pacific Blue Crab Photo 1
Check out the crab who went to eat that blue exotic fish that washed up & was dying when I took the picture. I tried to move him but he just went below the sand.

Later on my rounds I found it dead next to the same fish.

 Another type of fish we have been seeing hundreds of, washed up...I don't know what it is but it is in the same numbers as the pez globo (puffer fish), which we found hundreds of too, & now scientists have officially stated that they are experiencing massive die-off from here to Colombia. The other two are more of the appendage & scales inside.

 The two unidentifiable photos are half of a fish with some crazy scales that the vultures refused to eat. It was very strange & smelled really bad. I stuck a stick inside to open it for the picture and show that it was just an empty fleshy carcass that still had its scales & tail. I see a couple of vultures now but not many like before. The seabirds seem to be gone now too, & there is nothing alive down there except caracoles way far in the tide line & some Fantasma crabs.

A good picture of an example of all the weird fleshy pieces that just wash up. They are always shiny and glowing when I look at the pics later.

Photo 6
Here are more of those fish, notice the size of the cranial bone differs greatly. They all did. Mostly we found lots of different cranial bones, but these were ones we found as whole skeletons mostly. The one picture of just a bone is the head of another & a good example of what we find usually.

These are all the strange body & skeleton of what we think is a deep sea grouper, but just a guess. The main issue is the appendage? That had scales INSIDE instead of outside, & no, it wasn't skinned & left inside out. Plus, the scales were enormous, i don't know if you can tell on film.

So this ends the picture show for this time, I would like to thank AWe for sending these pictures in and I would like to add that I think some of these these things that are washing up on the beaches are deep sea fish. So this is my theory on why we are seeing this and you are all welcome to come on here and talk about it too.

I think the radiation is collecting at the bottom of the Pacific Ocean, and this is forcing deep sea fish in particular to start moving closer to the surface. However there is a problem, you see our human eye have a lens that acts much like an magnifying glass. And if you have ever been a child playing with a magnifying glass you know how easy it is to set things on fire on a sunny day. So what keeps our human eyes from being fried on a sunny day? Human eyes have a built in cooling system and this is what protects the cells that pick up light from around us from being fried. This allows us to keep seeing even after we have been exposed to very strong light sources in our daily lives.

However deep down in the ocean there is very little light, and the animals deep down there have no need for this type of cooling system present in their eyes. So what happens when these types of deep sea fish are forced to come closer to the surface is they shortly go blind, get eaten or starve and die off.

I really don't recommend anyone eating sea food from the Pacific Ocean anymore, the contamination is now so widespread that there is no guarantee what type of radioactive material you would be ingesting. 278 Trillion Bq Plutonium is not going to go away from the food chain in the history of mankind.

Having been a commercial diver, he know a great deal about the ocean and have the pictures to prove that the Fukushima Disaster have been far more deadly than any media or government have dared to say.

The entire 200 kilometers checked of Canadian Pacific Coast Line is devoid of all life, recovery is highly unlikely.

☢ Russian General Calls for Preemptive Nuclear Strike Doctrine Against U.S. And NATO Allies ☢

With things heating up with the conflicts in Ukraine and with the pressure from the US and Europe a Russian general has called for Russia to revamp its military doctrine, the military doctrine was last updated back in 2010, to clearly identify the U.S. and NATO allies as Moscow's enemy number one and spell out the conditions under which Russia would launch a preemptive nuclear strike against the 28-member military alliance.

Source: The Moscow Times www.themoscowtimes.com/article/506370.html

Russia's military doctrine is a strategy document through which the government interprets military threats and crafts possible responses, is being revised in light of threats connected to the Arab Spring, the Syrian civil war and the conflict in Ukraine, the deputy chief of the Kremlin's security council told RIA Novosti on Tuesday.

But within the Defense Ministry there are voices calling for different priorities.

"First and foremost, the likely enemy of Russia should be clearly identified in this strategic document, something absent from the 2010 military doctrine. In my view, our primary enemy is the U.S. and the North Atlantic bloc," General Yury Yakubov, a senior Defense Ministry official.

The 2010 doctrine defines NATO expansion as a threat to Russian national security and reaffirms it's right to use nuclear weapons in a defensive posture, but stops far short of declaring NATO as Moscow's primary adversary and laying preemptive nuclear strike scenarios on the table, a posture unmistakably reminiscent of the Cold War.

Yakubov said the information war being waged over the crisis in Ukraine, where the West accuses Russia of arming separatists fighting the government in Kiev, and NATO's announcement that it would establish a permanent military presence in Eastern Europe have validated earlier fears that the alliance's claims of non-aggression toward Russia were insincere.

The general added that special attention should be paid to integrating the functions of the newly created Air and Space Defense Forces with Russia's land, sea and air based nuclear forces. "In addition, it is necessary to hash out the conditions under which Russia could carry out a preemptive strike with the Russian Strategic Rocket Forces," he said.

Hi folks, if you have been following the chat recently then you might already know that AWe made a few comments to update us on the situation that we have been shown unfolding on the beaches of Costa Rica this past year. These latest pictures taken by AWe now show that all new shell growth is mutated.. And to make it clear, this is not some small insignificant mutations in the shells either. This is irreversible genetic damage. We can't fix this. And things will never be or look the same again because of Fukushima and the massive amounts of radiation that still to this day are leaking into the Pacific Ocean.

In case you missed the chat, this is what AWe said earlier.

AWe: Update from Costa Rica: All new shell growth is mutated. Hermit crab shells are neon orange & green, while their bodies are turning orange or blue. Many sharks now, & even empty boats washing up.

AWe: Barnacles are the only creature surviving in the tide pools anymore. Crabs are dying within hours of eating fish that washes up, & everything is glowing strangely when I photograph them as they die.

AWe: Also, my heart is broken from documenting this firsthand. Ending the study because my hair is starting to fall out & my skin is sparkling. Baking soda works well to neutralize this reaction.

These are the pictures sent in by AWe.

Hi again folks,

In the latest post by AWe seen here ☢ [PHOTOS] Mutated Hermit Crab Shells on Costa Rica Beaches ☢
We got to see pictures of some pretty extensive damage that radiation have already done to crab shells on the beaches of Costa Rica. And this next set of pictures sent from AWe seen below does not look any better, but in all this hardship it seems like someone is looking out for us and the many people affected by this disaster.. This is what AWe had to say..

AWe More affected hermit crabs)= etc. 12.11.2014

Well...., I have stopped going down everyday to do the study for reasons I explained....however, you know my boyfriend is a surfer, so I go down with him sometimes & take pictures still.....yes, he does fully realize, but he just doesn't care anymore. If everything is going away here, then he is okay with going away too. A lot of local surfers feel like that. Its just not possible for us monetarily either. We have big dreams about catching the hugest wave ever & just melting in it, although after all my research, I know that suffering & strange illness come into play, & that kind of a scenario isn't plausible. I can see his point too. I don't really want to live here on Earth if everything dies anyway...just trying to survive in a broken ecosystem? No gracias. Better to sing your death song strong. We have all done our best to mend the broken circle, sometimes to a heartbreaking level of no avail.

Today, I wanted to send you the latest. Our plants are all showing signs, but a few look like they have been taking on a lot of acid rain lately. Twisted leaves & deformed leaves. Many brown spots & discolorations. It"s not even difficult to find something strange on the beach anymore, & these pictures are just of the first bunch of hermit crabs I observed immediately today. Its happening in our house now too, as the tiny mangrove crabs that lived in our house have recently bubbled up & all died in the same manner as the beach crabs..!): Even our favorite two))=, whom I let live in one of the showers because I know they are an endangered species. I am also certain that they never had orange legs before. We are only 300 meters from the coastline, which is also an important note in which I have never previously added. Yes, that means the mangrove crabs are probably going extinct, with a lot of other species (too many insects to name) that would honestly take pages to describe..... & its in our water now...we are fully immersed. Some independent observations: Every morning there used to be a layer of bugs & jungle with so much life dancing around..., tons flying to the windows at night....., always drawn by the light, & frantically flying everywhere.

Now, our window wells etc. are so clean & devoid of insect life that I can't even believe it. The jungle is almost quiet at times...quiet!?! The spiders are making asymmetrical webs, & the webs are all yellow tinged.. like pollen....although, it is not pollen. Our cats have missing patches of fur now & seem kind of ill & without energy. The hermit crabs are evolving at tremendous rates....I have a new classification for some I like to call..."the climbers". I refrain from venturing into "climber' territory unless I see one one the edge that knows me, because at least half become fearful & drop to the ground from their elevated positions on logs & baby coconut sprouts. I don't want to disturb their efforts, as it seems difficult & want them to have some much needed rest. Obviously, they are ground dwellers who will occasionally get up to elevation in roots..however, the climbers sit up & open in their shells, clinging to a good balance point. It is really amazing to watch the adaptation unfold. I even went down once at night to observe the mass shift they are making to snail shells.

There are only a few number of those now, as they are huddling together in groups & in hidden sections of tide pools, seemingly dying very rapidly from pH & a myriad of other factors previously described. I really need to mention something very important to you. Granted, our house happens to be in the center of an ancient ring of indigenous stone balls, (which we just found out!) but the ufo activity here has been off the charts. One night they were right on our patio. The security guy for the residential area is our friend, & came over the next day saying everyone was calling & asking about the blinding lights happening all night long... & our neighbor was so scared that she has since moved. I wanted to go out & communicate with them, but my boyfriend was really scared, lights were shooting in our rooms from every angle, & wanted me to stay inside with him. Next time I am going though, for sure. Inexplicably, the next day we all felt better. My roommates wrenching stomach pain has subsided, & so has my boyfriends. <3 All my strange skin patch issues cleared up & parts of my hair that fell out are growing back. I was also having my cycle every couple of weeks (yes, I know), & since their visit, I am on a normal full moon schedule now! Which hasn't been in sync for a few years now, although I was always solid full moon since age 14. I don't know, but I figured you may appreciate this fact as well. I can't explain it.

(Note from JD: I was unable to find the name of this particular red flower from Costa Rica so if anyone know please share it in the chat. And I also tried to upload the second picture taken of this flower, however for some reason unknown blogger would not let me at this time)

I am sorry to not know the real name for this plant..its very simple and just grows leaves on a stalk without flowers. I wish we would have noticed it growing, but we still can't believe it did this. Somehow it twisted all into itself & are watching it everyday to see what it does.


This is an example of one of many mangrove crabs that died in our house just recently. They would sit there bubbling for hours until they died.

"There is no safe level of radiation. Nuclear technology... poses an ongoing threat to public health."
There is no safe level of radiation
The Daily Mail reports that Radiation released from the Cumbrian Nuclear Plant have been found 80 miles away across the border. Traces of radiation were found in fruit, potatoes and vegetables near to Dounreay nuclear power station in Caithness, in the far north-east of Scotland

Nuclear waste released from the Cumbrian reprocessing site has made fish and shellfish caught off the Dumfriesshire coast slightly radioactive.

And fish-fans in Dumfriesshire have the highest exposure to nuclear radiation of anyone north of the Border.
Despite Sellafield nuclear station being situated 80 miles away, the new report reveals that the nuclear power station is still having an impact on Scotland.

And although the levels are within safe EU limits, Sellafield and Scottish nuclear power stations have infiltrated the food chain here.

Dr Richard Dixon, director of Friends of the Earth Scotland, said:"There is no safe level of radiation. Nuclear technology... poses an ongoing threat to public health."

Traces of radiation were found in fruit, potatoes and vegetables near to Dounreay nuclear power station in Caithness, in the far north-east of Scotland.

Whilst in Chapelcross, in Dumfriesshire, nuclear radiation has made its way into the milk.

Where as at Faslane, near Helensburgh, Dunbartonshire, the destination of Britain's nuclear submarines where liquid radioactive waste is discharged into the Gareloch, beef has been revealed to contain a small amount of radiation.

The Radioactivity in Food and the Environment (RIFE) report by the Scottish Environment Protection Agency (Sepa)- the Environment Agency and the Food Standards Agency (FSA) - has revealed the true extent of radiation exposure in the new report.

A spokesman for the FSA in Scotland said: "There are low levels of radiation present naturally in the environment.

"Then there are nuclear sites which discharge material as an aerial discharge into the air or liquid discharge into the sea. The discharge from the sea is more likely to affect fish and aerial discharge will get into the land.
"These are, however, very small levels of no concern to anybody."

The findings also reveal the type of person likely to have been exposed to the highest dose of radioactivity in 2013 and showed that in Scotland, those susceptible to the highest dose would be an adult eating fish caught off Dumfriesshire.

They would have consumed 0.44 MILLISIEVERTs - around 4 per cent of the EU safe limit, whilst close to Dounreay adults who consume green vegetables will get the most radiation.

The unborn children of pregnant women living within 550 yards of the Hunterston B site, in North Ayrshire - one of Scotland's two working nuclear power stations -would received the highest dose there.

Dr Richard Dixon, director of Friends of the Earth Scotland, said: "There is no safe level of radiation. Nuclear technology... poses an ongoing threat to public health."

A spokesman for Dounreay Site Restoration said: "The levels of radioactivity found in the vicinity of Dounreay are within the limits laid down in law."

A Scottish Government spokesman said: "There are stringent regulatory regimes in place for protecting the public and the environment from radiation."

The 2014 RIFE Report show doses received by members of the public living near sites, and across Scotland, were well within legal dose limits."

It should be made clear that after Fukushima the EU and US raised the maximum legal radiation dose limit.

From http://www.activistpost.com/2011/04/eu-follows-epa-raises-acceptable.html

In the US according to PEER (Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility, the new standards would result in a “nearly 1000-fold increase for exposure to strontium-90, a 3000 to 100,000-fold hike for exposure to iodine-131; and an almost 25,000 rise for exposure to radioactive nickel-63” in drinking water.

EU ordinance 297/2011 raises the Maximum Levels of radiation and radioactive isotopes for food and feed to rather serious levels. In some cases, such as the case of Cesium-134 and Cesium-137, the levels are actually twice the amount of previously acceptable levels.Many of these increases are allowed in products such as infant formula and baby foods.

It should be noted that so far the new EU changes only apply to food imported from Japan. The justification behind this is that in the event of a nuclear emergency the traditional levels of acceptable radiation should be ignored so as not to cause a food shortage as a result of legal constraints.

This is a video showing the boiling / melting reactor core from Fukushima reactor 2. The corium is seen as a orange and sometimes light pink blob in the video taken.

I would like to thank FC in the chat for bringing this video to my attention and Nowi See on youtube who found it in the TEPCO archives and uploaded it to youtube.

Published on 27 Jan 2015 by Nowi See on youtube. You can also find the video in the TEPCO website archives if you like.

"This is the radioactive sludge and toxic water that they pretend they're doing something about. 40 minutes in underwater hell."




The Daiichi complex in Fukushima, Japan had a total of 1760 metric tons of fresh and spent nuclear fuel on site last year, according to a presentation by its owners, the Tokyo Electric Power Company (Tepco).

The most damaged Daiichi reactor, number 3, contained about 90 tons of fuel, and the storage pool above reactor 4, which the Nuclear Regulatory Commission’s (NRC’s) Gregory Jaczko reported had lost its cooling water, contains 135 tons of spent fuel.
  1. The amount of fuel lost in the core melt at Three Mile Island in 1979 was about 30 tons.
  2. The Chernobyl reactors had about 180 tons when the accident occurred in 1986.
Going by the reported amount Fukushima has nearly 10 times more nuclear fuel than Chernobyl.

It also means that a single spent fuel pool at reactor 4 has 75% as much nuclear fuel as at all of Chernobyl.

But in reality it gets much worse than that..

Tepco very recently before the disaster transferred many more radioactive spent fuel rods into the storage pools. According to Associated Press, there was at the time of the earthquake and tsunami some 3,400 tons of fuel in seven spent fuel pools plus 877 tons of active fuel in the cores of the reactors.

This all totals up to 4,277 tons of nuclear fuel at Fukushima at the point of the disaster.

Which would mean that there was almost 24 times more nuclear fuel at Fukushima than Chernobyl at the time when it went full meltdown only hours after the earthquake struck the plant..

☢ The 1995 Experiment That Could Have Ended Civilization ☢

It wasn't an international group of mad scientists back in 1995 that announced that they will go ahead with plans to activate their latest world-destroying device and try to create miniature black holes that could consume the entire earth and spell the end for civilization. Unlike CERN (Central Evil Research Node) "please correct me if I got the name wrong in the chat", with their Large Hadron Collider (LHC).

Rocket fired at Northern Lights Norwegian rocket incident
Rocket fired at Northern Lights Norway
Back in 1995 the experiment that almost ended our civilization was something quite the opposite and the scientists had no idea that their experiment could spell the end of civilization.

On Jan. 25, 1995, Norwegian and American researchers fired a rocket into the skies of northwestern Norway to study the Northern Lights. But the four-stage rocket flew directly through the same corridor that American Minuteman III missiles, equipped with nuclear warheads, would use to travel from the United States to Moscow.

The rocket's speed and flight pattern very closely matched what the Russians expected from a Trident missile that would be fired from a US submarine and detonated at high altitude, with the aim of blinding the Russian early-warning system to prepare for a large-scale nuclear attack by the United States. The Russian military was placed on high alert, and then President Boris Yeltsin activated the keys to launch nuclear weapons. He had less than 10 minutes to decide whether to issue the order to fire.

Yeltsin left the Russian missiles in their silos, probably in part because relations between Russian and the United States were relatively trusting in 1995. But if a similar incident occurred today, as US arms expert Theodore Postol warned recently, it could quite possibly lead to nuclear catastrophe.
