I looked and there before me was a pale horse! Its rider was named Death, and Hades was following close behind him.  They were given power over a fourth of the earth to kill by sword, famine and plague, and by the wild beasts of the earth.

Japan’s Industry Ministry now admits that since the March, 2011, nuclear disaster in Fukushima Prefecture, construction gravel from that area has been shipped all over Japan, and it’s radioactive!

The ministry was forced to make the admission after an occupied apartment building tested positive for high levels of cesium (more on the inside of the building than on the outside).

Industry officials said they did not think there would be a problem with the gravel since it is first dug up out of the ground.  Apparently they didn’t think it would be contaminated while sitting on the ground waiting to be shipped out, after all the Fukushima Daiichi reactors are still spewing radiation!

The gravel quarry operator said at least 20 construction companies took on large amounts of gravel just from the end of March through April, 2011.
