From Fukushima to Hiroshima


ORDER HERE
Activist Post

Regular readers of Activist Post are likely familiar with the work of Richard Wilcox, PhD. His on-the-ground reports and intensive research into the Fukushima disaster have been instrumental in raising essential questions about the history of nuclear power. In fact, he asserts that the Fukushima explosions and the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings are intimately connected events. 

Dr. Wilcox and a team of editors are helping to present a comprehensive exploration of this nuclear will to power that holds little regard for life itself. They recently have published a definitive and riveting book: Fukushima: Dispossession or Denuclearization? If there is one sober assessment of what this unparalleled event means to humanity, this scholarly yet practical review is it.

In this eye-opening exposé you will discover diverse dispossession effects including:

  • Market distortions
  • Radiation damage to personal property
  • Wrecked livelihoods 
  • Trangenerational mutations potentially threatening health and happiness
  • Corrupt influences of the nuclear industry
You will learn from leading experts who discuss the path to denuclearization through the pursuit of alternative technologies, as well as the range of potential health and economic threats yet to unfold.

Contributors include:

  • Richard Wilcox
  • Andrew McKillop
  • Christopher Busby 
  • Majia Nadesan
  • Antony Boys
  • Harvey Wasserman
  • Paul Langley
  • Adam Broinowski 
  • Christian Lystbaek
  • The Fukushima Five
All proceeds from the sales of this book will be donated to The Fukushima Collective Evaluation Trial Team, a team of lawyers who are fighting in the courts in northern Japan to have children in Koriyama City, quite badly contaminated with radiation after the March 11, 2011 Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant disaster, evacuated to safe areas at government expense.

This is an opportunity for readers to gain essential knowledge, while contributing to the recovery process from what could prove to be one of humanity's greatest challenges.  


NOTE: The last chapter of this extraordinary and eye-opening book provides only a glimpse into what are perhaps the most important messages that Fukushima has to deliver to humankind. The editors have graciously made this available for free - including graphics and video.

Diabolical Deceptions, Dengue Fever and Dirty Nuclear Politics


Richard Wilcox, PhD

“I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy.” - Tom Waits 

This article is a further investigation into a recent story I reported on which was based on a trusted Japanese source. The Japanese government may have been involved in hanky-panky by using dengue fever in order to scare the public away from gathering in Tokyo's major parks and prevent any huge anti-nuclear protests from occurring (1).

I mistakenly reported in the original article that the date of the protest to be held was September 27th, when in fact it was to be on the 23rd. This makes it even more plausible that the government was using the summer dengue to prevent any mass meetings from occurring.

How Badly Is Fukushima Radiation Damaging the Pacific Ocean?

Copyright Richard Wilcox 2014

Richard Wilcox, PhD

Although its heart is rich in pearls and ores 
The Sea complains upon a thousand shores
- Alexander Smith (1) 

I watched some wonderful movies over the summer with “ocean” themes and one was with Robert Redford called All is Lost. The entertainment value was good but it also made a statement about Man's interference with Nature and how nature can strike back. I love films like All is LostMaster and Commander, in which the imperial navy visits the Galapagos Islands and“Kon Tiki,” a story about a 4,000 mile trek across the ocean, because they show the unspeakable beauty and power of the world's great oceans. Can humans actually destroy them? 

Over the past year we've read many news stories about mass die-offs of marine species in the Pacific Ocean and other regions. One hypothesis in the alternative media is that the massive radiation released from the Fukushima nuclear disaster is the cause. Others blame over-fishing, pollution or climatic events.

Is Miami on the Brink of A Nuclear Disaster?


New reports indicate a Fukushima-style nuclear disaster is inevitable in the Miami area, and needs to be investigated immediately.

Sayer Ji

Concerns over the possibility of a Fukushima-like nuclear meltdown event in the U.S. have been growing, with the most likely next disaster predicted in 2011 to be surprisingly close to Miami Florida, at the Turkey Point facility 41 miles south near Homestead.

According to a July 23rd NPR story, the Turkey Point facility was found to be (literally) in hot water, over its cooling system, which caused federal regulators to be so concerned, that they upped the nuclear plant's cooling system allowable temperature to exceed the 100 degree limit for 10 days - up to 103 degrees if necessary. The plant has come close to 100 degrees, which should mandate an immediate shut down. But instead of exercising precaution, regulators simply increased their legal limit, causing environmental groups in nearby Biscayne National Park to express grave concern.

Post-Fukushima masquerade

Richard Wilcox, Ph.D.

The Japan Times July 3 editorial “DPJ ruins chance at power reform” perfectly summarized Japan’s farce of cardboard cut-out clowns masquerading as a political process.

The Democratic Party of Japan and other opposition parties abandoned their mission of serving the people. Instead of revising the Electric Utility Power Industry Law, they devoted themselves to protecting their own political power.

Politicians lost the chance to reform the energy monopoly — the very system that led to the Fukushima nuclear disaster two years ago. Lawmakers have not advanced the nation toward embracing more “dynamic market competition” that would lead toward decentralized and greener energy systems. Instead, the decrepit dinosaurs in the nuclear and oil cartels have won again.

How ironic that as some estimates put the cleanup costs of Fukushima at a staggering $500 billion, risky schemes are being led by the Japanese government for infrastructure projects in the United States and Europe. What about investing in resolving the Fukushima nightmare so that the 160,000 people who have been displaced by the accident can live free from radiation fears again?

All-Time Darwin Award: The Nuclear Industry



Rady Ananda

Gar Smith’s Nuclear Roulette: The Truth about the Most Dangerous Energy Source on Earth is a 14-point condemnation of President Eisenhower’s “peaceful atom,” an exposé of official and corporate lies, and a multi-pronged platform of alternatives.

When Ike okayed nuclear power, “they screwed the pooch,” says political cartoonist Mike DiBari. Ike’s military-industrial complex wrote our death sentence when the US authorized the development of nuclear energy: humanity will not survive this technology, nor will most other species.

“In 2000 alone, civilian reactors produced enough plutonium to make more than 34,000 nuclear bombs,” writes Smith. [1]

This is what the nuclear energy industry is about – producing plutonium, tritium and other ingredients for nuclear bombs. [2]

Hundreds flock to public meeting to debate restart of potentially dangerous San Onofre reactor

Over 850 people turned out at the recent public meeting debating the plan to restart the highly contentious and potentially dangerous San Onofre Nuclear Generating Station (SONGS) in Southern California which has remained offline for almost nine months.

A report published earlier this year revealed that there is a distinct possibility of even disasters occurring in the future which are significantly larger than the radioactive leaks discovered earlier this year which were later reviewed by a Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Augmented Inspection Team.

The relatively massive group that showed up to the public meeting was characterized by The Orange County Register as a “sometimes-boisterous crowd” and included “plant operator Southern California Edison, anti-nuclear activists, a union representative for San Onofre workers and state utility and energy regulators.”

The meeting was preceded by a demonstration outside the St. Regis Monarch Beach Hotel during which some activists called for a more thorough review of Southern California Edison’s plan to restart one of the two reactors at the San Onofre nuclear power station and others called for a complete shutdown of the plant.

Last week the NRC received a proposal from Edison in which they sought to restart the Unit 2 reactor at 70 percent capacity. “[Edison] expected to eliminate the vibrations among steam generator tubes believed to have caused the problems that have kept the plant closed,” according to the Register.

Researchers determine 23 plants and 74 active nuclear reactors vulnerable to effects of tsunami



Madison Ruppert, Contributor

The dangerous reality of nuclear power is becoming increasingly apparent in the wake of the continuing (and “profoundly man-made”) disaster at Fukushima as well asstudies which project similarly devastating disasters in the future.

Yet nations including Japan continue to press forward with nuclear power in spite of the clear dangers and the widespread public opposition to the deadly technology.

The case against nuclear power just gets stronger with another study headed by Spanish researchers which identifies nuclear power plants which are especially vulnerable to suffering the devastation of a tsunami.

“In total, twenty-three plants, in which there are seventy-four active nuclear reactors, are located in dangerous areas in east and southeast of Asia, including Fukushima I,” Homeland Security News Wire reports.

The researchers found the “potentially dangerous” sites which are either already constructed or currently under construction. While scientists still cannot perfectly predict tsunamis and obviously thus cannot predict nuclear disasters as a result of tsunamis, they can identify potentially problematic sites before any real danger is present.

Nuclear experimentation killed free power part II

Anthony Freda Art
Jimmy Midnight

Ethan Indigo Smith is my son, and I did help him with some scientific issues in the previously released,Nuclear Experimentation Killed Free Power Part I. I’m writing to defend on scientific, technical, statistical, rhetorical, and political grounds, his basic thesis. Allow me here to paraphrase: “To understand that nuclear experimentation is The Rabbit Hole of Death requires only minimal scientific knowledge.”

Thanks to Tom Bedlam for his attentive reply, and for pointing out that, as far as anyone knows, there are no magnetic field disruption issues peculiar to nukes. The name Bedlam serendipitously highlights the fact that nuclear experimentation has always been, is now, and will forever remain, a bedlamite way to boil water.

Bedlam attempts to quantify the accidents at Simi Valley, Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Fukushima. Let’s step back just long enough to notice that the first three were meltdowns at large facilities while Fukushima is a meltdown of at least three such facilities, with the impending compromise of a spent fuel pool. So if Chernobyl, a nuke built with marvelous hubris but without secondary containment, really is worse than Fuku, it has to be with the modifier, “So far.”

Doomed Planet For A Failed Species? Fukushima’s Tragic Nuclear Consequences

In all things of nature, there is something of the marvelous. -- Aristotle

In wildness is the preservation of the world. -- Henry David Thoreau 

The earth is what we all have in common. -- Wendell Berry 

We've arranged a global civilization in which most crucial elements profoundly depend on science and technology. We have also arranged things so that almost no one understands science and technology. This is a prescription for disaster. We might get away with it for a while, but sooner or later this combustible mixture of ignorance and power is going to blow up in our faces. -- Carl Sagan 

The issue of the environment can be viewed through a fascinating variety of historical and philosophical lenses (1; 2; 3; 4; 5). We, the “failed species,” find ourselves on the verge of “transhumanist” transcendence, or, on the skids toward extinction on an eroded and polluted planet (6; 7). Without a biodiverse ecology, there is no economy. Don’t try to kill Mother Nature, she will sneeze at you, wait a few million years and then go on to something else.

Nuclear Experimentation: Year 67

click to enlarge
Ethan Indigo Smith

Here is an extremely brief overview of the physical destruction of nuclear experimentation:

Nevada Test Site, multiple detonations. Hiroshima Japan, detonation. Nagasaki Japan, detonation. Bikini Atoll, multiple detonations. Hanford, Washington, storage becoming impossible to contain and? Russia and China and all nuclear nations of Europe have their own containment problems. Simi Valley, California, experimental meltdown and? Madagascar atmosphere, SNAP 9A plutonium powered satellite crashes. Three Mile Island, Pennsylvania, meltdown. Chernobyl, Ukraine, meltdown and? Fukushima, Japan, multiple meltdowns and? (Sources here and here)

The question marks above are because not even supposed nuclear scientists know exactly what is occurring in these places.

Over 2,000 experimental nuclear detonations have battered the most amazing place in the solar system, Mother Earth. Aside from the major nuclear experimentation accidents and detonations which have occurred, that we are aware of, there have been countless leaks and lost materials during the last 67 years of nuclear experimentation, mainly in the fields of power generation and martial detonation experimentation. Some releases were less notable as far as the amount radioactive particles released, and some have been kept secret. Omitting information and keeping secrets is typical for the nuclear experimentation industry, it was incepted in secret; and because of its close ties to the global military industrial complex, and because of how insanely dangerous it is, it operates secretively to this day. 

Nuclear Experimentation Killed Free Power

Death, brought to you by...
Ethan Indigo Smith

This article contains information you might want to ignore. California was nuked in the fifties. The Matrix of Four types of information explained in relation to the enhanced entropy of nuclear experimentation. How nuclear experimentation killed ocean current power, and possibly is preventing us from understanding the god particle/the Higgs Boson counter-wave. 

The first (known) meltdown of a nuclear power generator in the U.S.A. occurred in July of 1959 at the Santa Susana Field Laboratories in Simi Valley, CA. Since this accident pre-dated any regulation of the nuclear industry, no one will ever know how much radioactivity was strewn around as a result. Reasonable people guess the released amount was comparable to what happened at Three Mile Island or Chernobyl, but much less than the ongoing disaster at Fukushima.

The Simi Valley reactor was an experimental “fast-breeder” type, bizarrely cooled by liquefied metallic Sodium, a substance which will explode when doused with water, and burst into flame when exposed to air. Thousands of pounds of this laboratory curiosity remain unaccounted for. Obviously it has all long since oxidized, and remains in the biosphere as Sodium ions, the familiar Sodium part of Sodium Chloride, table salt. Except, of course, for such Sodium as absorbed a fast-moving neutron from the fast-breeder, turning into radioactive Sodium 24, which in view of a half-life measured in hours, has long since decayed to the radio stable Magnesium 24.

The Nuclear Mafia Derails Democracy in Japan

End of the day, factory whistle cries, Men walk through these gates with death in their eyes. - Bruce Springsteen, "Factory" (1)

“Bring us the living dead. People no one will miss.” - Fukushima official’s request to Yakuza (2)

“TEPCO's involvement with anti-social forces and their inability to filter them out of the work-place is a national security issue ... Nuclear energy shouldn't be in the hands of the yakuza. They're gamblers and an intelligent person doesn't want them to have atomic dice to play with.” - Japanese Senator (3) 

The technological issue of nuclear energy is intertwined with the exploitation of human labor in a hierarchy of interests, and how human labor is expended is an economic and moral issue. The Grand Scientific Project from the time of Francis Bacon up to the Manhattan Project of Oppenheimer and Fermi has been a dangerous gamble for humanity even though the advertised purpose is that progress is good. 

The exploitation of labor at nuclear plants depends on the tools of social engineering, of government, mass media and schools. This is the hidden and shameful side of today’s materialist society and belies our complicity in a criminalized culture.

Radioactive Rats, Nuclear Techno Geeks And Life In The Damage Control Continuum

[T]here is no such thing as society. - Margaret Thatcher, England’s prime minister, 1987 (1)

If there is a single, metaphysical idea that I have dedicated my life’s work to [exposing], it is that the greatest evil, the greatest destructive force, in terms of thought, is nominalism...the idea that there is no intrinsic connection among objects in classes of things....that the only thing that exists in the world is the individual. It’s the case in science, it’s the case in political theory. - Matt Johnson, Ph.D. (2)

This is really shaping up to be a 500 or 1000 year drought. How long can the atmosphere tolerate chemtrails, HAARP, and massive, ongoing emissions of methane from both seabed and continental land masses? 


A great being from India once said that the indiscriminate Nuclear Testing of the last 70 years would profoundly affect the weather patterns around the world, which is like irrevocably altering the morphogenetic field of Planet Earth. We simply can't do Nuclear Testing without HUGE unintended consequences in the form of pervasive collateral damage to the environment. 

When we find ourselves in such an intense crucible like Fukushima, we are given the opportunity to spiritually advance ourselves in amazing ways. We're watching this happen all around us, especially where disaster and calamity strike without warning. The shock to our consciousness creates an opening for miracles to occur, yes? 
- Cosmic Convergence Research Group (3) 

A new documentary film featuring Koichi Oyama, a particularly brave and diligent city council member from the region affected by the Fukushima Nuclear Disaster, sums up the attitude of Leviathan, The Regime, the Hostile Criminal Elite, the Nuclear Cabal as it were, especially as it relates to the predicament Japanese people find themselves:

No Safe Dose: Japan’s Low-dose Radiation Disaster

Globalization is premised on the promise that the poor may become a little less poor only if the rich become immeasurably, abusively richer: if it had been the intention of humanity to wreck the Earth, no more effective formula could have been imagined. - Jeremy Seabrook (1) 

Nuclear scientists and engineers embrace nuclear power like a religion. The term ‘nuclear priesthood’ was coined by Dr. Alvin Weinberg, long director of Oak Ridge National Laboratory...It’s not unusual for scientists at Oak Ridge and other U.S. national nuclear laboratories to refer to themselves as ‘nukies.’ The Oak Ridge website describes Weinberg as a ‘prophet’ of ‘nuclear energy.’ - Karl Grossman (2)

Should we trust the Japanese government, international nuclear agencies and corporate-controlled media regarding the safety of air, food and water after the Fukushima nuclear disaster? Many people are rightly suspicious, but at the end of the day one still has to eat, drink and breathe. For many people it’s easier to pretend that a little bit of radiation is nothing to get riled up about.

After all, just one medical CT scan [computerized axial tomography] is equivalent to 6-10 whopping millisieverts (mSv) -- several years worth of normal background radiation (3; 4). Doctors who presumably care about patient health issue these without batting an eyelash-- “it is safe” a doc once told me.

Medical technology contributes a large proportion of anthropogenic radiation to people in developed countries and is an issue that deserves greater scrutiny (5). How ironic that doctors who may correctly advise patients “not to smoke” probably don’t know that cigarettes are a substantial source of radiation.

But that does not make nuclear pollution a moot topic.

NEW DELHI - The United States will support India's continued exemption from global nuclear trade rules despite moves to tighten up restrictions, the US ambassador to India said on Thursday.

Last week the Nuclear Suppliers Group (NSG), which governs global nuclear trade, decided to tighten guidelines for transfers of sensitive uranium enrichment and reprocessing technology.

India, which has a electricity deficit, has an ambitious nuclear programme and won a special exemption in 2008 from NSG rules, which was negotiated by the United States.

Before It's News

On 9/11 the premise for explaining the dramatic ritual that unfolded before the world was that steel structures can collapse into dust from jet fuel fires. Never before has a steel structure collapsed from any kind of fire nor has one since, yet that day 3 huge buildings dropped like rocks into their own footprints--one, building 7 that didn't come down till the afternoon, did it even without jet fuel.

No problem. Buildings fall from fire. We get it.  And the whole world fell for it...or was forced to.
