Must Watch 60 minute film about the ***ushima nuclear accident
http://paulcurrier.tumblr.com/post/3...save-your-life It's worse than you thought. Here are just a few of many shocking facts reported in this new film by Andrew Ebisu: 1. Despite what you were told, three reactors at ***ushima suffered 100% meltdowns. The nuclear fuel in these reactors is now believed to have melted all the way through the concrete containment -- and has been released into the environment. Meaning: a so called China syndrome is now operative. 2. Ordinary soil samples taken in Tokyo turned out to be so radioactive that they would qualify as radioactive waste here in the US. 3. The Japanese government and nuclear Industry (TEPCO) instituted a news blackout in Japan -- suppressing all negative reporting about ***ushima. 4. The leakage of radioactive water from ***ushima into the nearby ocean has continued and is slowly but surely polluting the Pacific with nuclear contamination. 5. The spent fuel rods at reactor 4 continue to be a ticking time. If the structure collapses for any reason -- the resulting release of radiation would be 50 times worse than Chernobyl -- and would contaminate the entire northern hemisphere. 6. The US government's response to the crisis was to halt all nuclear testing on the West Coast -- evidently to keep the populace in blissful ignorance.

I just have to say that the formatting of the thread title shows just how stupid this swear filter/censorship thing really is.

nuclear testing -- as in testing air samples for radiation.
Although the US government is now in denial mode -- independent testing showed that folks in Seattle are breathing 5 hot particles a day. The level in Tokyo is 10-20 particles per day. It takes only one to cause a cancer MHG |

Incidentally -- I'm going to re-name the thread -- in light of the new information that we now have a China Syndrome on our collective hands.
The whiners will whine, the haters will hate. So be it. |

You mean air sampling for radionucleides.
Not quite the same emotional impact as "nuclear testing", which means "aboveground explosions of nuclear weapons". Quote:

Does anything happen in this world that does not require a conspiracy? At least as Gaffo is concerned?

Right-wingers flatly deny any sort of conspiracy has ever existed anywhere..... ....until jobs numbers that might reflect positively on the president are revealed, that is. |

I never said or implied that a conspiracy was a part of the crisis in Japan. The reason that Japanese democracy is so weak -- the nation is authoritarian and very corrupt -- is because Gen Douglass MacArthur put the criminals back into power after WW II -- yes -- the same corporate and monarchical elite -- including the Yakuza -- who were responsible for Japanese imperialism in the first place. Why did we do that? Ostensibly -- to insure that Japan would remain a bulwark against communism -- which, incidentally, is the same justification many gave for supporting Hitler. Ro is just another clueless American. What is astonishing is how he can read so much -- yet know so little. For the full story -- I mean the agonizing blow by blow account -- of how the US set up and maintained the present corrupt undemocratic system in Japan -- see the Seagraves' amazing book Gold Warriors. The truth is more mind boggling than you ever imagined -- and no we are not talking about a conspiracy -- but simply the way the world is. Things as they are. MHG |

Last year -- when I warned that ***ushima could be as bad as Chernobyl -- I was ridiculed. It turned out that I greatly underestimated what was happening.
Now we know that the crisis is already worse than Chernobyl, which involved a less than 100% meltdown of only one reactor. Now we have on our hands the total 100% meltdown of three reactors-- at least one of which and probably all three have burned through containment. This means that the cores are loose in the environment -- To make matters worse, we have learned that a fourth reactor has the potential to make this worst case scenario even worse than it already is -- by a factor of 50-100 times. If the spent fuel rods at the fourth reactor are exposed to air -- the rods will combust and release 50 - 100 times the total radiation released at Chernobyl. From this one reactor. It is without a doubt the worst disaster in human history. Nothing else comes even close- -certainly not Hiroshima or Nagasaki. And all Ro can do is attack the messenger for spinning conspiracy theories. America is now the land of walking zombies-- MHG |

Here's one report. According to this, TEPCO acknowledged last month that one of the reactor cores was eating through the outer containment. Given TEPCO's record of vastly understating the problems at ***ushima, you can draw your own conclusions.
We are facing the likelihood that one and probably all three reactor cores are -- or will soon be -- China Syndromes. http://beforeitsnews.com/japan-earth...o-2439232.html Last edited by mhgaffney; 10-09-2012 at 10:56 AM.. |

I figured out the problem. It's a case where the built in Orangemane censor makes the URL inoperable.
The links to the site include the word Fu-ku-shima -- which the Orangemane censor changes to ****shima. This alters the URL -- making it inoperable. However - I found a work-around. Go to google.com search for the following quote: This is the worst possible scenario” I think the melted fuel has already eaten through the concrete (VIDEO) Google will pull up numerous working links to the site.
