Fukushima and the Battle for Truth

Officials at the Fukushima Dai-ichi plant, where engineers are still struggling with small radiation leaks due to tsunami damage, expressed relief that Typhoon Roke’s driving winds and rain caused no immediate problems there other than a broken security camera.  Stuff.co.nz

Fukushima’s nuclear disaster is a nightmare. Ghostly releases of radioactivity haunt the Japanese countryside. Lives, once safe, are now beset by an ineffable scourge promising vile illness and death.

Large sectors of the population are accumulating significant levels of internal contamination, setting the stage for a public health tragedy.

A subtle increase in the number of miscarriages and fetal deaths will be the first manifestation that something is amiss. An elevated incidence of birth defects will begin in the Fall and continue into the indefinite future. Thyroid diseases, cardiac diseases and elevated rates of infant and childhood leukemia will follow. Over the next decade and beyond, cancer rates will soar.

Chernobyl was the harbinger of this heartbreaking scenario. It taught mankind the inescapable biological truths that emerge within populations internally contaminated by heightened levels of fission products. And yet, government and industry schemers attack these truths as unfounded scare-mongering. With cold indifference, they deny that Chernobyl was a mass casualty event. They turn a blind eye to a huge body of research and deviously proclaim that no evidence exists that more than a handful of people suffered harm from the Ukrainian disaster. They publish propaganda, draped in the guise of science, that dismisses the hazard of low levels of internal contamination. Believing their subterfuge to have been successful and intoxicated by their hubris, they are already positioning themselves to stage-manage the public’s perception of Fukushima.

Here Comes The “China Hard Landing”!

John Key’s shares are in the BoA. He can’t be very happy about where they are going!

Earlier today Bank of America released a presentation and a conference call in which the firm’s head of China equity strategy David Cui spoke about the dreaded “China Hard Landing” or the event that would kill all decoupling dreams for ever and ever, and probably lead to a world depression. It seems that the latest down move in the market is being partially attributed to just this notification finally making the rounds as can be seen in the note below: “BofAML’s David Cui is the Markets’ #1 rated China Strategist according to the 2011 Institutional Investor All-China Survey. While he is not responsible for our China GDP forecast, he sees significant Chinese specific financial market risks that could trigger lower than expected Chinese growth. He sees that those financial market risks as having increased considerably. He will expand on this on the call, but he sees these financial stresses as having a very high probability of triggering lower than expected growth. That lower growth could well be sub 7%, and therefore by Chinese market standards would be termed a “hard landing”, clearly a HUGE issue for all global markets.” Granted this is not news to those who have been following the Chinese situation (as fringe blogs have been for over a year), but the market does tend to have a habit of being about 12-18 months behind the curve. Here is what Bank of America had to say…

From Bank of America:

Fitch’s head of sovereign rating Andrew Colquhoun commented that in the near term, the biggest risk to China’s sovereign rating is the banking sector.

BofAML’s David Cui was ahead of the curve on this one:

He believes that there is still a large downside risk in China.

David believes that there is a good probability of a hard landing, he highlights timing associated with this could be past 2013 with the new administration.

After 3 years of loose monetary policy David doesn’t think it would be wise for the government to ease from here and if what David fears about the underlying lending markets materializes then more aggressive drop is quite possible.

If you don’t trust the “trader” maybe the head of the Italian UniCredit Securities will do.

And when the banks no longer trust each other, not to lend to each other, the international financial markets stop. This in turn means that all financial institutions left alone with clients.

Either the YesMen have infiltrated Italy’s biggest, and most undercapitalied, bank, or the stress of constant, repeated lying and prevarication has finally gotten to the very people who know their livelihoods hang by a thread, and the second the great ponzi is unwound their jobs, careers, and entire way of life will be gone. Such as the head of UniCredit global securities Attila Szalay-Berzeviczy, and former Chairman of the Hungarian stock exchange, who has written an unbelievable oped in the Hungarian portal Index.hu which, frankly, make Alessio “BBC Trader” Rastani’s provocative speech seem like a bedtime story. Only this time one can’t scapegoat Szalay-Berzeviczy “naivete” on inexperience or the desire to gain public prominence. If someone knows the truth, it is the guy at the top of UniCredit, which we expect to promptly trade limit down once we hit print. Among the stunning allegations (stunning in that an actual banker dares to tell the truth) are the following: “the euro is “practically dead” and Europe faces a financial earthquake from a Greek default“… “The euro is beyond rescue”… “The only remaining question is how many days the hopeless rearguard action of European governments and the European Central Bank can keep up Greece’s spirits.”….”A Greek default will trigger an immediate “magnitude 10” earthquake across Europe.“…”Holders of Greek government bonds will have to write off their entire investment, the southern European nation will stop paying salaries and pensions and automated teller machines in the country will empty “within minutes.” In other words: welcome to the Apocalypse…

But wait, there’s more.

 

Per request: Terrorist!!! It’s just a word by Mhara Costello.

‘Terrorist’ is just a word, one I wish I’d never heard

When it’s used to vilify, without the need to question why

Only fools would swift condemn, that which has not befallen them

Until you know what lies behind, the actions of a tortured mind

Thank your God for sparing you, the suffering others have lived through

Where are the cries of just demand, for Arabs driven from their land?

Blame the victim, turn the cheek, praise the bully, kick the weak!

Mock the man who truth does speak

Tinker, tailor, soldier, spy, greed, corruption, torture, lies!

Blair invasion, sly persuasion, annihilation, massacred nation

Keep on running, karma’s coming!

Money talks, truth walks, oil spills, greed kills

Tide is turning, London’s burning!

Bombs will fall and blood will flow, as sure as my own name I know

Until corrupt dictators go, brutal, rotten, to the core

Their day has come, they rule no more

Show me the man who will not fight, to save his child, his home, his right!

You can call him what you like, you’re not in his sorry plight

Cowards stay and Martyrs go, I know not where, but this I know

Speak your truth and stand your ground, fight your corner

When all around, point the finger, purse the lips, pin the label, ‘Terrorist’!

Just a word, but one that sticks, even when the cap don’t fit

But for the grace of God go I, remember that, before you cry

False accusation, names of shame, at those who may not be to blame,

Their crime, refused to play the game, of meek acceptance, dumbing down,

Your life, your choice; Warrior / Clown

Government Twists Science of 9/11 – Just As With Iraq, the Gulf Oil Spill and Fukushima – to Promote Its Policy Objectives

From Washington’s blog:

Anyone who paid any attention to the claims of Iraqi weapons of mass destruction, the Gulf oil spill or the Fukushima nuclear accident knows that the government often twists science to promote certain policy objectives, such as drumming up support for the invasion of Iraq or becoming a booster for nuclear power and big oil (and thus downplaying the damage from nuclear accidents and oil spills).

President’s National Medal of Science winner Lynn Margulis notes that the scientific method is to follow the facts where they lead, to adopt the theory which has the most proof, and to discard theories which are contradicted by the facts.

Margulis says that – in the case of 9/11 – the government has adopted theories which are backed by very little evidence, and refused to look at the most likely theory – the one backed by overwhelming evidence.

A sign of the times: Armed police chase Raglan sheep rustlers

I don’t like this as I live close to the affected areas but Swat teams in response to rustling? it seems to me a sign of the times.

Sheep carcasses were found in an abandoned vehicle after police responded to rifle shots at a Raglan farm last night.

Gun shots on a farm near Te Uku last night sparked a police chase that ended with a Christian camp being locked down and a pair of suspected rustlers on the loose.

Waikato Armed Offenders Squad members, the Auckland-based eagle eye helicopter, police dogs and more than 10 police cars descended on the Christian Youth Camps Inc site in Waingaro Rd, Ngaruawahia, after livestock thieves fled through the property about 5.10pm.

Sergeant Neil Moncher said an abandoned Nissan Safari was found inside the camp with two sheep carcasses onboard.

A weapon – believed to be a rifle of some type – was also discovered a short distance into the bush.

Mr Moncher said a Raglan farmer heard two gun shots on his property about 4.50pm and raised the alarm after seeing a suspicious vehicle leaving the scene.

Police answering his call passed the suspects’ vehicle on the way out.

Is The U.S. Government Stockpiling Food In Anticipation Of A Major Economic Crisis?

Is the U.S. government stockpiling huge amounts of food and supplies in anticipation that something bad is about to happen?  Is something about to cause a major economic crisis that will require large quantities of emergency food?  For a while, I have been hearing things about the government storing food through the grapevine and I have not been sure what to think about those rumors.  Well, today I received a phone call that blew me away.  I debated for quite a while before I decided whether or not to share this information with you all.  Normally I do not like to talk about anything unless I am able to prove it by pointing to an article in the mainstream media.  But the source of the information that I am about to share with you is rock solid.  I cannot reveal his name, so you will just have to trust me on that.  Hopefully the following information will be one more “dot” as we all try to connect the dots about what is really going on out there.

This morning I received a call from a very prominent person in the storable food industry.  He has asked me not to reveal his name.  I have been dealing with him for an extended period of time and I consider him to be a rock-solid source.  When I talked to him today, he had just received a huge order for storable food from a U.S. government source.  He told me that the dollar amount of the order was in the “five figures”.

When he asked about why so much food was being ordered, the government source told him essentially that “you know what is coming”.  When pushed further, the government official did not elaborate.

It was unclear whether this was part of a larger food stockpiling program by the government.  Perhaps this order was just part of the normal preparations that government agencies make for potential emergencies.

Tony Blair’s six secret visits to Col Gaddafi

For in debt info on Psychopaths scroll down and watch the 35 minute video!

Tony Blair’s close relationship to Colonel Muammar Gaddafi has come under fresh scrutiny after it emerged he had six private meetings with the dictator in the three years after he left Downing Street.

Five of those meetings took place in a 14-month period before the release of Abdelbaset al-Megrahi, the Lockerbie bomber.

Mr Blair is coming under increasing pressure to make public details of all his meetings and discussions with Gaddafi. It follows the disclosure in The Sunday Telegraph last week that on at least two occasions Mr Blair flew to Tripoli on a private jet paid for by the Libyan regime.

Among the new meetings uncovered by this newspaper is a visit to Gaddafi in January 2009, when JP Morgan, the US investment bank which pays Mr Blair £2  million a year as a senior adviser, was trying to negotiate a deal between the Libyan Investment Authority (LIA) and a company run by the Russian oligarch Oleg Deripaska, a friend of Lord Mandelson. The multi-billion dollar deal, which later fell through, would have seen the LIA provide a loan to Rusal, the world’s largest aluminium producer.

JP Morgan’s involvement in the deal is revealed in an email sent to the LIA by the bank’s vice-chairman, Lord Renwick, in December 2008, in which he sought to “finalise the terms of the mandate concerning Rusal before Mr Blair’s visit to Tripoli”.

Super Sun Blast Fears Put Russian Nuke Plants In Lockdown

Obama, Bunker, Exercise, Russian Nuclear fear mongering?

A frightening report circulating in the Kremlin today prepared by the Federal Atomic Energy Agency (FAAE) states that “emergency notices” have gone out to all of Russia’s nuclear power plants warning them that a potential “blast” from our Sun could cause “massive power blackouts” and could even result in “spontaneous atomic explosions.”

Prompting this unprecedented warning was our Sun’s unleashing of a massive X1.9 solar flare from the behemoth Sunspot 1302 yesterday, and that is just days away from putting our Earth squarely in its sights, that this FAAE report is blaming for the near total blackout that hit the entire South American nation of Chile within minutes of this event occurring.

Obama Ordered To Denver Bunker By US Military on 27th of September

When governments want to drills you should be very worried because since 911 they have a tendency to “go live” i.e. to happen  for real! The exercise allowing for all the pawns to be put in place as if the real thing were about to happen. For example FEMA arrived in New York the day before 911 to partake in a terrorist exercise. Similarly the attacks on the London underground on 7/7 were an exercise gone live.

A disturbing report prepared by General Alexey Maslov, the Senior Military Representative of the Permanent Mission of Russia to NATO, states that he has been notified by the Americans of their plan to hold a DEFCON 1 “Cocked Pistol” maximum readiness alert drill on 27 September which will be overseen by President Obama at one the United States most secure bunkers located beneath the Denver International Airport.

Under the SALT I Strategic Nuclear Arms Control Agreement signed between Russia and the US, both parties are required to notify the other in all cases of such maximum readiness drills occurring, but are not required to state their reasons for doing so.

General Maslov states in his report, though, his concern over this drill is “heightened” due to last months nuclear attack on the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) branch of the intercontinental military tunnel complex between Washington D.C. and Denver, and which we reported on in our 24 August report Russia Reports Nuclear Explosions Hit Vast US Military Tunnel Network.

Wall St protests: Police harsh, media silent?

Some 80 people have been arrested in lower Manhattan as the ongoing “Occupy Wall Street” protest enters its second week. Police have been harsh in quelling the rally. However, not much of their violence is being reported by the mainstream media.

Tensions are rising near Wall Street, where hundreds of demonstrators fed up with the existing financial system have camped out to protest against bank bailouts, the mortgage crisis and social injustice. They also protested the US state of Georgia’s recent execution of Troy Davis.

On Saturday, hundreds of protesters marched through lower Manhattan in the direction of Union Square, where police tried to corral them using orange plastic netting and used tear gas against some of protesters.

The Federal Reserve goes into the Spy business!

Yesterday, after I did a presentation of the new Architects and Engineers video: Experts speak out, someone asked me if I felt that my blog was monitored.  While I know by comments made by various known Pentagon assets that my blog was indeed on a list I can be sure that if it wasn’t before it will be now because the Federal Reserve has just announced it will start to monitor those who discuss it on line.

Here is what Zero edge blog has to say about it and none of it is good!

Ahmadinejad’s speech to the UN 2011

£64 billion wiped of UK firms in one morning!

£64 billion was wiped of the share value of UK businesses in one morning when the FTSE dropped this morning with investors selling off in a panic. I’m sure the end of the day will see a magic recovery due to the plunge protection intervention but the news is in. The banks are collapsing before our very eyes. 

Here is wha MAx keiser has to say about the financial war waged on us by the robber bankster class:

And if you think Bill English has any idea what the fuck is going on, think again. here is what he has to say from the IMF, WTO top!

John Key is relaxed about the IMF warning!!!

John Key is not too worried about the IMF warning they issued earlier this week.  So what is it he knows what we don’t! Could it have something to do with the meetings John Key had with both Timothy Geitner and Ben Bernanke in his July visit to the US?

Let’s remember John Key is a Wall street insider and has a large stake in the survival of Wall street and Bank of America with a large portion of his wealth still invested in shares in that bank. If he’s not nervous even as the bank is down graded from A to B++ he may have cause not to be.

While we wait though here is what some pretty keyed in Bloggers have to say about the current situation:

• Economic collapse blog gives 21 signs that something big is going to happen in the finance world and 30 signs that the US economy is going down the gurglers in awe inspiring speed
• Zero hedge is posting so fat it’s hard to keep up but his message is not good. Bank of America is downgraded to B++ and that is were John Key keeps his nest egg
• And the International forecaster has this to say about how international Corporations are dodging tax by off shoring their accounts to tax havens while the country they sucked dry is collapsing.

War Crimes: Insanity Of The Sane

Former Secretary of Defense Donald Rumsfeld has been stripped of legal immunity for acts of torture against US citizens authorized while he was in office.   The 7th Circuit made the ruling in the case of two American contractors who were tortured by the US military in Iraq after uncovering a smuggling ring within an Iraqi security company.  The company was under contract to the Department of Defense.   The company was assisting Iraqi insurgent groups in the “mass acquisition” of American weapons.  The ruling comes as Rumsfeld begins his book tour with a visit to Boston on Monday, September 26, and as new, uncensored photos of Abu Ghraib spark fresh outrage across Internet.  Awareness is growing that Bush-era crimes went far beyond mere waterboarding.

Psychologists: Questioning 9/11 Is the Sane Thing To Do

The 9/11 Commissioners and Other Officials Don’t Believe the Government

The 9/11 Commissioners and congressional investigators into 9/11 themselves don’t believe the government’s description of events.

Much of the world doesn’t believe the official story.

Psychologists Say that Questioning 9/11 Is the Sane Thing To Do

Many mental health professionals have concluded that the official version of 9/11 is false, and that those who believe the official version suffer from defense mechanisms. For example:

• Associate Professor Emeritus of Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School, Lester Grinspoon, MD

• Associate Clinical Professor of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences, Duke University Medical Center, as well as Radiology, at Duke University Medical Center D. Lawrence Burk, Jr., MD

• Board of Governors Distinguished Service Professor of Psychology and Associate Dean of the Graduate School at Ruters University Barry R. Komisaruk

Can China escape as world’s debt crisis reaches Act III?

For those of you who still think that China will pick up the slack were the US left off think again:

Even after Lehman and AIG collapsed a year later — and Europe’s economy crashed into slump — it remained an article of faith in Berlin, Paris, and Rome that this was just fall-out from the Anglo-Saxon casino.

Few understood that the `China Effect’ had engendered credit bubbles everywhere, and that Europe’s variant was even more pernicious because euro-banks were more leveraged, with much greater liabilities, and the structure of EMU concentrated the damage on weaker states with no policy defence against sovereign collapse.

US Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner must have felt a twinge of Schadenfreude as he exhorted EU finance ministers in Poland to rescue their banks or face “catastrophe”. The Germans and Austrians barked back at him, of course, but at least debate is joined.

The Marie Antoinette price goes to: ‘It’s important for them to have space’: Petra Ecclestone bought Candy Spelling’s £52m mansion so her dogs can live in comfort!

With 56 million Americans living in poverty and the global financial system collapsing as we speak you would think she had something better to with her millions.

In spending such a crazy amount of money for the sake of her dogs Petra Ecclestone has overtaken the callousness of the alleged remark made by Marie Antoinette in telling the starving people of France to eat cake if they did not have bread. I hereby award her the Marie Antoinette award in the hopes that when the Revolution starts her demise will be quick and painless.

Interactive Infographic Of The Doomed European Financial System

From Zero hedge blog here is an interactive article explaining why the Euro is doomed and the financial system will collapse.

With Europe set to open in a little over 12 hours, and with rumors of Greek default once again flying around in their private taxpayer funded jets (only to turn back to their point of origin shortly after take off), we wish to remind readers that a chart is worth a thousand words. In this case several charts, courtesy of Reuters, which has created the ultimate in interactive data presentations on the Euro crisis. The data aggregates exposure across public debt, bank and non-bank private sectors, debt maturity, default risk. Note that the charts (based on BIS data) only include external-looking debt held on the books, and not debt subsequently repoed back to the ECB, for which the intermediary exposure is back to domestic banks, and the final is to Europe’s taxpayers themselves.

First, the doomed periphery…
