Business/Economics, U.S.

Exceptional Failed State: U.S. job losses & store closings 19 September 2013. More Obama Care crap! Major contraction in banking industry continues! More greedy property owners!

Incomplete list of announced closings and layoffs:

What housing market recovery? Too Big to Jail Wells Fargo bank is warning that they will probably layoff 18-hundred more employees!  Bank officials blame it on crashing demand for home loans.

Another video game/computer graphics maker going down?  Machinima laid off 22 employees.  Company officials said layoffs were necessary for their “growth”.

California: In Bakersfield, after 20 years the Baskin-Robbins ice cream store shut down.  The store owner blames the property owner (who is also a property developer), who refused to offer a new lease to the ice cream seller.  In Long Beach, tax sucker Boeing announced they will shut down their last major assembly factory in California by 2015.  Boeing ended production of expensive C-17 military transport aircraft.  In Escondido, Palomar Health laid off another 35 employees.  At the beginning of September Palomar Health laid off 122 employees in Escondido!

Connecticut: In Windsor, tax sucker Westinghouse shutting down their nuclear fuel parts factory in 2014.  66 jobs will be lost.

Iowa: The last Kmart store in Cedar Rapids will be closed down.

Maine: In Cape Elizabeth, Too Big to Jail KeyBank shut down the town’s last bank!  It’s part of a nationwide banking industry consolidation (contraction) of operations.

Massachusetts: Global medical device maker, Coviden, announced they are being forced to restructure to meet the Obama Care law, meaning massive layoffs due to shutting down medical device factories.  Obama Care created a new tax on medical device companies, many have decided to end operations rather than pay the tax.

Michigan: In Novi, a Blockbuster video store shut down.  It’s part of plans to shut down all Blockbuster stores. In Wyoming, after 62 years in business, Leatherman Hardware shut down.  The family owners blame an ever worsening economy: “It seemed like our piece of the pie got smaller and smaller each year. The city has changed so much over the years, and things just kept getting harder and harder.”-Dave Leatherman junior

Montana: In butte, Netflix shut down its DVD distribution center.  It’s blamed on crashing sales.

North Carolina: Seven BI-LO stores shut down! It’s blamed on the takeover by a company called Publix.

Ohio: In Jackson, Masco Cabinetry will close its Merillat factory.  200 jobs lost! Local news reports say the company gave no reason.

Oklahoma: In Tulsa, union workers were told by American Airlines that as many as 400 could lose their jobs! It’s blamed on the merger with USAirways.

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) doesn’t count the hundreds of layoffs involving less than 50 people each, in its mass layoff reports. It also doesn’t count all the little ‘mom & pop’ businesses that shut down.

“Our ideals and principles, as well as our national security……..That’s what makes America different. That’s what makes us exceptional.”-Barack Obama, 10 September 2013

Influenza

Influenza: H1N1 behind growing number of mystery deaths in the U.S.? 24% failure rate for flu vaccine? Medical personnel refuse flu shot! Infections double in one week!

25 December 2013 (23:11 UTC-07 Tango 24 December 2013)/21 Safar 1435/04 Dey 1392/23 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

Illinois, U.S.A.: 15 hospitals in Chicago report increasing cases of flu, especially H1N1.

Florida, U.S.A.: I’ve been hearing reports of growing numbers of people dying, and public health officials giving no explanation why.  Some cases sound much like what happened to a Pasco County, Florida, woman (Holly Harrelson) who died at the end of November 2013 (it wasn’t reported by officials until last week!), just hours after getting sick (she posted on Facebook that she ” was riding shotgun with death”).

I got a message about a USN veteran, Neil Joseph Gallette , who died in Florida  in the same hospital as Holly Harrelson.  The person who wrote me said Gallette was suffering the same flu symptoms, but ‘officials’ downplayed his death.

My research showed that after Operation Desert Storm, Gallette was arrested for the death of his six month old son.  His son died of brain injuries.  This was back in 1993, and local news reports called the veteran a “charity” father, or homeless vet.  Is this why his death, 20 years later, was downplayed?

The Trinity Memorial Gardens obituary confirmed Neil Joseph Gallette died on 21 December 2013.  The obituary called him a USN veteran.  No other details given.

Pasco County health officials did confirm a man died of H1N1, back on 09 December.  They did not give his name or any other details.  The U.S. CDC does not require adult deaths to be publicly reported, only the deaths of children.  (this could be the main reason for the ‘mystery’ in lack of reporting adult deaths)

Nevada, U.S.A.: The Nevada Division of Public and Behavioral Health confirms “deaths” caused by complications of influenza.

Texas, U.S.A.: In Gregg County, Good Shepherd Medical Center reports two people died from H1N1. One of the victims was a 37 years old man who got sick at the end of November.

In Beaumont, Jefferson County, two people died from “complications” brought on by H1N1.

In Montgomery County, four people died.

In Travis County, one confirmed H1N1 death, a 30 years old woman with no other health problems.

In Harris County, officials confirmed three deaths caused by H1N1, in the past week.  One family reported that their 50 years old grandfather, who was a plumber, said he was feeling “bad”.  They checked on him at his home on 19 December, and he had died!

Hidalgo County reporting nine confirmed cases of H1N1.  Six adults, three children.

Victoria County: “We have experienced an unusually high number of cases, comparable to the 2009 H1N1 outbreak.”-John McNeill, Twin Fountains Walk-In Health Clinics

U.S. CDC health officials reporting that Texas is one of four states being hit hardest by H1N1 (the others are Louisiana, Mississippi and Alabama).  Health officials say if you get hit hard with H1N1 get to a hospital ’cause you might need to be on a ventilator to stay alive. However: “There’s a subset of those patients who cannot be kept alive even on a ventilator.”-Jordan Weingarten, Seton Medical Center

Wyoming, U.S.A.: Health officials confirmed that H1N1 is the number one flu in the Cowboy State.

Alberta, Canada: Health officials continue to report spikes in flu cases, mainly H1N1.  One death has been confirmed to be caused by H1N1.  Gerry Predy, a provincial health official, says the number of H1N1 cases have doubled in the past week.  Predy also says the version of H1N1 that’s on the attack this year has been around for at least five years.

An outbreak of H1N1 has been found in the medical staff of Misericordia Hospital.  Hospital officials claim that 42% of medical staff had gotten the flu vaccine, including some of those that are sick!  It’s interesting to note that the rest of the hospital staff are refusing to get the flu shot!

Ontario, Canada: The Thunder Bay District Health Unit says their district “…leads the province with the highest number of emergency room visits for patients experiencing symptoms of influenza….” 

Officials with Ottawa Public Health say two thirds of confirmed flu cases are turning out to be H1N1.

Officials with the Middlesex-London Health Unit says reported flu cases continue to go up.  They also report that 86% of people sick with flu did not get vaccinated.  That means that 24% of people who did get the flu shot still got sick!

Health officials say it takes at least two weeks for a flu shot to become effective.  So, if you get sick immediately after getting vaccinated, you just wasted your time and money!

China: The China CDC is ordering more flu shots for old people.  It’s their response to growing number of confirmed H1N1 infections (as well as other flus).

Fukushima, International

More Fukushima Fallout: Companies who built Fukushima Daiichi will build new nuke plants for Bilderberger Britain! 1600 people die because of the melt downs! More mystery strontium leaks!

24 December 2013 (12:11 UTC-07 Tango)/20 Safar 1435/03 Dey 1392/22 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

A study reported to the October 2013 PICES meeting in British Columbia, Canada, says by 2016 all of Fukushima Daiichi’s cesium 137 will arrive in the United States and Canada!  The Arctic Ocean will also be contaminated.

What about the other isotopes?  The presentation to PICES concluded that “The inventory of Fukushima radioactivity will almost entirely shift….to the eastern North Pacific over the next 5 years.”   The presentation is available in PDF, it’s titled Radionuclide Transport from Fukushima to Eastern North Pacific

Tokyo Electric Power Company reporting that at least two nuclear waste water storage tank farm liners/barriers have mysteriously lost most of their contained contaminated rain water.  TEPCo is calling it a “phenomenon”.

The liners/barriers, which are near the reactor Unit 4, are showing no visible signs of leaks.  One of the liners/barriers saw a water level drop of 11 centimeters (4 inches) since last Friday.  TECPo says the water in the tank farm liners/barriers contains 440 becquerels per liter of radioactive strontium!  They suspect the water is seeping into the ground through cracks they can not see.

Since last week contaminated water leaks in four tank farm liners/barriers were discovered (or at least reported).

Days ago the Japanese Mainichi newspaper reported that at least 16-hundred people have died as direct and indirect result of the ongoing Fukushima Daiichi nuke disaster.

This includes deaths from radiation contamination and psychological stress due to becoming refugees within their own country, with no employment or permanent place to live.  Add to that the fact that the neo-imperialist government of Japan keeps changing the rules of how radiation refugees will be compensated.

A contractor who built the GE designed disaster reactors (units 3 and 5) of Fukushima Daiichi is now majority owner of a failing nuclear power company in United Kingdom.  Toshiba now owns 50% of NuGeneration.

According to press releases, Toshiba’s majority stake in NuGeneration will allow the construction of a new 3.6 gigawatt nuclear power generator in Sellafield, England, on the coast of the Irish Sea.

Hitachi built the GE designed Fukushima Daiichi reactor Unit 4 (which has proven to be causing the most trouble), and has also taken over a troubled British nuke power company.  In November 2012, Hitachi became sole owner of Horizon Nuclear Power in England.   According to the latest Japanese news reports, Hitachi-Horizon plans on building six new nuclear power generators in the United Kingdom.

GE built Fukushima Daiichi’s units 1, 2 and 6.  GE designed all the reactors units including the ones built by Hitachi and Toshiba.  Construction of the reactor unit buildings was done by Kajima.

According to The Japan Times, the exodus from Fukushima Prefecture continues.  Already grade schools have had to shut down due to lack of students, now local privately funded universities are reporting 18.7% fewer students.  Tax funded universities are not reporting declining enrollments, but that might be due to declining tuition and fees.  However, the Fukushima tax funded universities also say they have not seen an increase in enrollment, either.  This means that overall, college aged students are leaving the area.

The government of Fukushima Prefecture will allow experimental rice growing in radiation evac zones.  The rice will be tested for radiation contamination.

At the beginning of 2012, researchers from California and New York proved that tuna fish are contaminated: “We report unequivocal evidence that Pacific bluefin tuna, Thunnus orientalis, transported Fukushima-derived radionuclides across the entire North Pacific Ocean. We measured γ-emitting radionuclides in California-caught tunas and found 134Cs (4.0 ± 1.4 Bq kg−1) and elevated 137Cs (6.3 ± 1.5 Bq kg−1) in 15 Pacific bluefin tuna sampled in August 2011.”–Pacific bluefin tuna transport Fukushima-derived radionuclides from Japan to California

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 25-28 November 2013: Two million drug addicts under U.S. occupation! More free money from World Bank! National Guard heading back to Afghanistan! Guardsmen return home to no jobs!

Badakhshan Province: In Yamgan District, an entire Afghan National Army unit joined the Mujahideen to protest the Obama regime’s post 2014 occupation deal (aka bilateral security deal).  At least 25 U.S.-NATO-ISAF trained soldiers switched sides.  The ANA commander, known as Ashoor, called the security deal a slavery pact with America.

Faryab Province: Six employees of the French NGO, Agency for Technical Co-operation and Development, were shot and killed.  Cops claim they don’t know who did it, but Mujahideen proudly claimed responsibility.

Helmand Province: In Nad Ali District, a Georgian-ISAF tank was blown up.  Witnesses say the crewmen were killed.  Rescuers were hit with another explosion, killing three and wounding two.

Herat Province: In Shindand District, over a two day period government forces stole 200 motorcycles, 50 cars and trucks, and kidnapped two people!  Witnesses say the government forces gave no reason for their actions.

Kabul Province: In Kabul City, an explosion was heard.  Cops say it was a trash can bomb, and nobody was hurt.

Kandahar Province: In Panjwai District, a vehicle carrying a family was blown up by a landmine. Three people killed, one child wounded.

Nangarhar Province: In Shirzad District, a Afghan helicopter (most likely paid for with U.S. tax dollars) crashed during anti-opium ops, according to government officials.  However, Mujahideen say the ‘copter was part of a seven ship heliborne assault led by U.S. forces.  Mujahideen say they shot down the ‘copter.  They claim the battle resulted in five U.S.-NATO-ISAF troops killed, seven ANA troops killed and 10 wounded.

Nuristan Province: In Kamdish District, the Afghan National Army called in a U.S.-NATO drone strike.  Two people killed.  ANA officials claim the two people were Mujahideen.

The Pubilc Health Ministry says the U.S. occupation has created more than two million drug addicts in Afghanistan!

The Afghan Ministry of Justice is considering reinstating the Death by Stoning law for people who commit adultery, or have sex without being married.  President Hamid Karzai says he is against such a law.

The U.S. based World Bank is pledging even more free money to Afghanistan.  This time the $50-million USD grant is for making it easier for Afghans to get loans!  It’s called the Afghanistan Access to Finance Project.

The U.S. National Guard Bureau met with Lithuanian military leaders, one of the topics of discussion was the continued occupation of Afghanistan: “We have been tackling with the multinational mission in Afghanistan and training in joint military exercises. We hope that our military cooperation in multinational exercises and operations will not run out and more joint projects will facilitate its further development.”-Juozas Olekas, Lithuanian Minister of National Defense

200 Army National Guard 48th Infantry Brigade militia personnel, from the U.S. state of Georgia, departed for training to prepare for their deployment to Afghanistan in January 2014.

In the U.S. state of Louisiana, a Army National Guard militia man returned from Afghanistan was denied his civilian job.  Sherman Crandle spent a year in Afghanistan.  He left his Best Buy job when he was deployed, but when he returned home Best Buy told him to take a hike!  This violates U.S. law!  But Crandle did not give up: “Throughout the rehiring process it took me about a month and a half to get my job back…[however]…I’ve worked a total like six days so far out of the last three weeks.”

Corporate Evil: Hepatitis vaccines causing people to die! Bilderberg connection!

24 December 2013 (20:11 UTC-07 Tango 23 December 2013)/20 Safar 1435/03 Dey 1392/22 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

China’s Food and Drug Administration has banned specific hepatitis vaccines after the confirmation that seven infants died from the anti-virus shot. 

At least one infant is now sick with hep B after getting the vaccine.

The seven infants died after receiving hepatitis B vaccinations.  The vaccine has been sold to the provinces of Hunan, Guangdong and Guizhou. 

In July of this year, Vietnam stopped hep B vaccinations after three infants died.

In May of 2011, the same type of vaccine was found in a U.S. court to be responsible for the death of a child: “….she suffered certain injuries as a result of receiving a vaccination. Among the injuries petitioner alleged that she had suffered as a result of receiving a hepatitis B vaccination was systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) … A lump sum of $475,000.00 in the form of a check payable to petitioner as Administratrix of the Estate of Tambra Harris.”-United States Court of Federal Claims

Some doctors have even testified in front of U.S. Congress, saying the hep B vaccine is worse than the disease: “For most children, the risk of a serious vaccine reaction may be 100 times greater than the risk of hepatitis B.”-Jane Orient, Association of American Physicians and Surgeons

The organization called Child Health Safety also points out that hep B vaccines are connected to cases of multiple sclerosis and autoimmune disorders.

The company that made the vaccines in China, BioKangtai, is under investigation.   China requires that children get three hep B shots within their first year of life!

It turns out that the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is behind global hep B vaccination programs.

The Gates Foundation supports the Partnership Project to Strengthen Immunization Services and Introduce Hepatitis B Vaccine, in India’s Andhra Pradesh: “I commend the State of Andhra Pradesh for its strong commitment to immunization.”-Bill Gates

They also gave the Pan American Health Organization $4.9-million USD to run vaccination programs for children, including hep B.   Other hep B vaccination programs supported by the Gates Foundation ($10-billion pledged in 2010) are GAVI Alliance, Children’s Vaccine Program at PATH (Program for Appropriate Technology in Health),  and University of Washington Department of Global Health.

The Hepatitis B Foundation gave the Gates Foundation an award for the aggressive promotion of vaccinations.

Warren Buffet is a “co-trustee” of the Gates Foundation.  Bill Gates has attended secretive Bilderberg meetings, his name appears on their publicized guest list.

 

Business/Economics, U.S.

Exceptional Failed State: U.S. job losses & store closings 18 September 2013. Several thousands more lose their jobs! More Obama Care layoffs!

Incomplete list of announced closings and layoffs:

BlackBerry announced 5-thousand people will lose their jobs!  Company officials blame crashing sales.   In June, BlackBerry reported a loss of $84-million USD.

Arizona: In Tucson, after 23 years the El Mezon del Cobre restaurant shut down.  The owner, a single mother of three, said it was getting too hard to continue operations.

Connecticut:  What automotive industry recovery? In Cheshire, Willow’s Motorsports shut down.  The motorcycle dealer blamed the high price of new motorcycles (who wants to pay more than 10-thousand dollars for a new motorcycle, anybody remember when they were just a couple of hundred?) and internet competition for their declining sales of motorcycle parts.

Florida: In Clearwater, Ruth Eckerd Hall laid off 13 employees. Officials with the non-profit performing arts organization blamed it on declining donations.

Iowa: What automotive industry recovery? In Creston, after 103 years of manufacturing automotive parts and engines, Gits will shut down in 2014! 95 jobs lost.  The company is consolidating manufacturing to other factories.

Kentucky: In Louisville, at least five Swifty gas stations shut down, without notice!  Speculation is that the company lost too much money, because they were an old fashioned gas station selling mainly gas, which generates only pennies in profits on every gallon sold. (that’s pennies on every gallon, not pennies on every dollar.  more proof that you can’t blame the gas stations for the high prices, they’re getting ripped off too)

Maine: In New Bedford, Southcoast Health System laid off 60 people.  Southcoast President and CEO, Keith Hovan, directly blamed Obama Care.

Maryland: In Salisbury, the Peninsula Regional Medical Center laid off 58 people.  That brings this year’s layoffs to 101.  Hospital officials blame declining demand for care and declining reimbursements caused by Obama Care.

Michigan: Too Big to Jail, Flagstar Bank, shut down in Troy, according to a WARN filing.  At least 299 jobs lost!

Missouri: In Saint Louis, tax sucker Boeing laid off 300 people!  Boeing ended production of their expensive C-17 military transport aircraft.

New York: Tax sucker General Electric to shut down its Fort Edward factory.  200 jobs lost!  Company officials moved production to Florida, with little notice to New York employees.

Ohio: Non-profit Summa Health System being killed by Obama Care. 30 more employees were laid off.  Back in January Summa Health laid off 54 employees.  Summa officials are hoping a deal with the Christian God’s Catholic Health Partners will save them.  The largest employer in the region, Cleveland Clinic, laying off as many as 3-thousand people!  Hospital officials blame Obama Care: “To prepare for healthcare reform, Cleveland Clinic is transforming the way care is delivered to patients.…..we need to further reduce costs to the organization by $330 million in 2014.”-Cleveland Clinic press release

Pennsylvania: In Wyomissing, Play It Again Sports shut down. The operators blame declining sales. In Waynesburg, Southwest Regional Medical Center laid off 29 employees.  Hospital officials blame reduced payments caused by Obama Care.  The hospital can no longer offer high level services: “The key change to services available locally is that we will only be performing scheduled surgical procedures and we will not be offering the highest intensity level of services as in the past.”-Cindy Cowie, CEO

South Carolina: A West Ashley Piggly Wiggly grocery store shut down. 14 other Piggy Wiggly stores were sold off!

Washington DC: Education software maker, Blackboard Incorporated, laid off an undisclosed number of employees.  Company officials refuted claims it was 140 employees. Company officials said they needed to reduce operating costs.

West Virginia: Theatre West Virginia shut down after 53 seasons! It’s blamed on the bad economy.  In Morgantown, the Kmart will be shut down. 100 jobs lost!

Wisconsin: OEM Fabricators laid off 45 employees. They blame a slow down in construction, oil and gas industries.

The U.S. Department of Labor (DoL) doesn’t count the hundreds of layoffs involving less than 50 people each, in its mass layoff reports. It also doesn’t count all the little ‘mom & pop’ businesses that shut down.

“Our ideals and principles, as well as our national security……..That’s what makes America different. That’s what makes us exceptional.”-Barack Obama, 10 September 2013

Fukushima

More Fukushima Fallout: Record radiation levels, global radiation wave bigger than all nuke weapons testing combined!!! Surge in cancer rates!

22 December 2013 (15:18 UTC-07 Tango)/18 Safar 1435/01 Dey 1392/20 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

“The rate at which children in Fukushima prefecture have developed thyroid cancer can be called frequent, because it is several times to several tens of times higher.”-Tsuda Toshihide, Okayama University

It has been revealed that 59 people living in Fukushima Prefecture have thyroid cancer.  They were all younger than 18 years of age when the nuke disaster began in 2011.  Compare that to medical records that show between 1975 to 2008 the average yearly thyroid cancer rate, for all of Japan, was 11 in every one million Japanese!

Children and young adults in their early 20s, and pregnant women, are Canaries In The Coal Mine when it comes to radiation contamination, because growing bodies absorb more radiation than people who are no longer growing: “It is known that radioactive iodine is linked to thyroid cancer. Through the intake of food, people may absorb and accumulate it inside glands.”-Choi Kin, former president of the Hong Kong Medical Association

Radiation caused cancer rates are probably much higher in Japan.  Arnold Gunderson, a former nuclear industry executive and engineer with more than 30 years of experience, told KBOO radio in Oregon, U.S.A., that Japanese doctors are being ordered not to declare any unusual illnesses as being related to radiation: “We’re seeing Japanese doctors not being able to tell their patients that the illnesses they’re experiencing are radiation induced….”  

Japan’s Environment Ministry has blasted Tokyo Electric Power Company for dragging out the nuclear disaster of Fukushima Daiichi, for three years now.  Specifically they are referring to the decontamination of contaminated areas and towns around the GE designed disaster reactors.  It was promised they would be cleaned up by March 2014, but it’s painfully clear that’s not going to happen.

The main problem remains the fact that Japan does not have sufficient nuclear waste storage sites, due to the fact that political and corporate officials in Japan thought anything like this couldn’t happen.  But, even the U.S. is not prepared for a similar situation: “Even for the U.S. nuclear industry, such a cleanup and decommissioning would be a great challenge.”-Akira Tokuhiro, Professor of nuke engineering with University of Idaho, U.S.A., at their Idaho Falls Center

Another problem is continued high level radiation emissions from  Fukushima Daiichi.

Within the past day, TEPCo workers recorded record levels of beta type radiation coming from Reactor 2; 1.9 million becquerels per liter!  Since November, Reactor 2 has been emitting higher and higher levels of deadly beta radiation.

On top of that, TEPCo admits radiation in the air is so high that when it rains it floods the ground with contamination.  Today they discovered that one of the concrete liners/barriers, under one of several nuke waste water storage tank farms, is leaking contaminated rain water.  They believe the joins in the concrete liner have eroded, the water pouring out is not from any of the tanks, but from rain water that gets contaminated as it falls and collects in the liner/barrier.  How contaminated?  Throwaway workers say they detected 93 becquerels per liter of strontium 90 in the rain water that is still in the barrier.

International researchers are now desperately warning of massive global radiation contamination, because of Fukushima Daiichi.

“Fukushima Daiichi has been allowed to get out of control……The amount of radiation that went into the Pacific from largely French [nuke weapons] tests, but also American tests, is smaller than what is going into the Pacific now from Fukushima Daiichi…….Fukushima Daiichi’s plume that’s heading towards the west coast of the United States is about 10 times more radiation in that wave, as it comes toward the west coast of the United States, than what we had already done from bomb testing.”-Arnold Gunderson, former nuclear industry executive and engineer interviewed on KBOO radio in Oregon, U.S.A., on 08 November 2013

Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution in Massachusetts, U.S.A., has published a graphic which shows the radiation coming from Fukushima Daiichi is far higher than any of the man made radiation created by the nuke weapons testing in the 1960s, and the 1989 Chernobyl disaster combined!

The U.S. government conducted airborne radiation sampling off the west coast of the U.S., in 2012, but has refused to publish the results claiming national security issues!

Fukushima, U.S.

More Fukushima Fallout: Strontium reaches deep aquifer! USN personnel suffering radiation poisoning! Government to sell off TEPCo to pay for decontamination! Still no nuke evac plan!

20 December 2013 (12:53 UTC-07 Tango)/16 Safar 1435/29 Azar 1392/18 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

“I get so angry. They said as long as the plume was avoided we would be fine!”-Jamie Plym, USN

U.S. sailors who served aboard the USS Ronald Reagan and USS Essex, during efforts to help the Japanese at the beginning of the Fukushima Daiichi disaster, are reporting illness linked to radiation contamination.  At least 51 sailors are attempting to sue Tokyo Electric Power Company (they should also sue GE, Hitachi and Toshiba).  The U.S. military personnel are suffering from strange growths on their bodies, thyroid and testicular cancers, leukemia, bronchitis and even unexplained and uncontrollable bleeding.  They claim medical testing confirm the symptoms are radiation poisoning.

For the first time, TEPCo is reporting that cesium and strontium is contaminating the aquifer under Fukushima Daiichi, 25 meters (82 feet) underground!  The contamination is coming from the GE designed, Hitachi built Reactor 4.  6.7 becquerels per liter of cesium 137, and 89 becquerels per liter of strontium were detected.

The Japanese government announced it will sell its shares of TEPCo stocks to raise cash to pay for decontamination efforts.  Lack of capitalist funding is the main reason for why the decontamination is being held up.   However, who wants to buy into a company that’s proven to be incompetent?

But wait, there’s more! The Japanese government is also increasing interest free loans to TEPCo.  About $87-billion USD worth!

TEPCo has agreed to decommission reactors 5 and 6 at Fukushima Daiichi.  Supposedly they suffered only cooling problems, and were shut down, but the Japanese government insisted they needed to be decommissioned before tackling the decommissioning of reactors 1 through 4.

The Japanese government says it will increase its paltry financial help for residents forced to leave the radiation contamination area.   The money is not coming from taxpayers, but supposedly from TEPCo.  Money will be used to rebuild homes.  People suffering mental stress have one year after evac orders are lifted to apply for a lump sum payment.  (lump?)

Remember, this disaster has been ongoing for three years!

And three years later, 60% of Japanese cities located within 30km (18.6 miles) of a nuclear power plant still have no evacuation plans in case of nuke disaster!  Local government officials within 30km of nuke plants are blaming local governments outside the 30km zone.  Officials within the 30km zones say they need places to evacuate to, outside of the evac zones, and that cities outside the zones are not set up to handle mass evacuees or casualties pouring in from other areas.  Yet another reason to dump nuke power!

Here’s another reason:  Researchers have been studying the forests around Fukushima Daiichi.  They’ve found high levels radiation at the root level of trees, about 1.8 microsieverts per hour.  Also, 50-thousand becquerels of radiation per kilogram is being found in the leaf fall and soil!  When it rains the radiation is washed downhill into streams and water supply for people. Currently there are no official efforts to clean up radiation contamination in the forests.

Influenza

Influenza: H1N1 behind people “riding shotgun with death”! Link proven between flu, narcolepsy and vaccines! Global medical martial law in effect!

19 December 2013 (13:14 UTC-07 Tango)/15 Safar 1435/28 Azar 1392/17 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

U.S.A., Florida: A Pasco County woman died from H1N1.  It took only hours for the H1N1 to kill her.  The 27 years old mother of three drove herself to the hospital, then within a few hours was dead. She posted on Facebook “I’m riding shotgun with death.”

“Right now in Houston, there are two outbreaks of respiratory illness and both can cause death.”-Pedro Piedra, Baylor College of Medicine

“I think that there is something going on that they are not telling people. I just wonder if they are related, do they work together? What do they have in common? They haven’t mentioned any of that.”-Laura Bentoe, Texas resident concerned there is a connection between H1N1 and RSV

U.S.A., Texas: In Montgomery County, one of eight people with a mystery disease has been confirmed to have H1N1.  Four of those people with the mystery disease have died.  Tests for two surviving patients indicate they do not have H1N1, test results for a third surviving patient are not in, yet.  All patients had flu like symptoms, but initial tests did not show any influenza infection.  This proves that current medical tests for H1N1 are not reliable.  Medical officials in Texas say H1N1 (aka Swine Flu) is turning out to be the dominant flu in the Lone Star State.  One health official pointed out that it’s good luck that this flu season’s flu shot just happens to cover H1N1.  In fact the H1N1 that’s going around is the exact strain of H1N1 in the new flu shot. I wounder……?

U.S.A., Colorado: Weld County reports one person has died from H1N1.  They are not releasing anymore details.

U.S.A., Georgia: Hundreds of people coming into hospitals sick with flu, including H1N1.  Four people have died.  Health officials say the people getting hit hardest are middle agers: “The cases we’ve had that have been really sick have been the middle aged people, where they get this pneumonia type pattern…..I don’t recall having this many patients as in prior years. A lot of people are requiring the ICU care and going on the ventilator and they’re the ones that have the chance of dying.”-Kenneth Horlander, Emory Clark-Holder Clinic

U.S.A., Mississippi: Health officials say the only flu strain hitting the Magnolia state is H1N1: “The only type of flu identified in Mississippi so far this year is the 2009 influenza A H1N1 strain, which has in past years primarily affected those under 65 years of age. This year, we’ve received reports of serious complications and some deaths associated with influenza infection in those under 65. During the 2009 H1N1 pandemic, 80% of the deaths were in people younger than 65, unlike a typical flu season in which the majority of deaths occur in those 65 and older.”-Thomas Dobbs, Mississippi State Department of Health

U.S.A., California: According to a new study by the Stanford University School of Medicine, H1N1 can cause narcolepsy (sleeping sickness, people falling asleep uncontrollably at anytime) in people with specific genetic traits.  A protein in the virus mimics a protein called hypocretin in the human brain.  This mimicry causes the human immune system to attack the hypocretin protein of the brain. Hypocretin is what helps you stay awake and alert.  This problem first showed up in 2009, when it was noticed that some people developed narcolepsy after getting an H1N1 flu vaccination!

U.S.A., Utah: Hospitals in northern Utah are asking people who think they’re sick with flu to stay away!  Hospital officials don’t want people sick with flu visiting patients.  Of course, if you’re real bad off with flu and need to be admitted as a patient they’ll take you.  Obama Care anyone? Oh, that coverage doesn’t start ’till next year, and not even for everyone. Reports say 44 Utahans have been hospitalized with flu, so far this season.

Canada, Alberta: Officials with AHS South Zone report 97 confirmed flu cases, with a spike in H1N1 in the past three weeks.

Canada, Ontario: The Middlesex-London Health Unit reporting that H1N1 is dominant flu strain.  At least 12 confirmed cases of A(H1N1)pdm09.  Even though 11 of those did not get vaccinated, one of them did get the flu shot.

Canada, British Columbia: Health officials on the western side of Canada are pointing out that this season’s H1N1 is the same strain that spread around the World in 2009.   They also point out that this season’s flu shot contains the very same H1N1, and they think people need to get vaccinated now: “The H1N1 virus will appear to most people like the regular flu. Most people will recover. But hospitalizations and death are possible and with H1N1 that’s most likely for young people with chronic conditions.”-Danuta Skowronski, BC Centre for Disease Control

Grenada: The Trinidad-based Caribbean Public Health Agency (CARPHA) reporting three confirmed H1N1 cases.  The first case was confirmed in November.  They’re telling people to watch for symptoms of sudden high fever, dry cough, headache, muscle/joint pain, severe malaise, sore throat and runny nose (better hurry up and catch it before it runs away).

France: At the end of November 47 people were finally freed from their imprisonment, after arriving at the airport of Toulouse-Blagnac.  They were quarantined after other airline passengers reported they were showing signs of H1N1, like coughing.  All were found to be flu free.

Mexico: Mexican news media revealing that H1N1 was a topic of discussion at the Global Health Security Initiative (GHSI) meeting held on 13 December in Rome, Italy.  Mexican officials say they’ve been preparing for this new H1N1 pandemic since 2005!  They also revealed plans to build new Level 3 labs in Mexico.

Also, at the 13 December GHSI meeting, the British empire country of Canada announced their full support: “Our government is committed to protecting the health and safety of Canadians by sharing Canada’s expertise with global health experts. International collaborations such as the Global Health Security Initiative help Canada stay ahead of emerging public health threats and respond more effectively when epidemics emerge.”-Rona Ambrose, Minister of Health

The UN World Health Organization has revised their death toll numbers from the 2009 H1N1 pandemic.  At least 203-thousand people were killed, that’s ten times more than first reported.  Researchers said that because of the way deaths are reported the actual 2009 H1N1 death toll could be 400-thousand. And the Americas were hit hardest: “This study confirms that the H1N1 virus killed many more people globally than originally believed. We also found that the mortality burden of this pandemic fell most heavily on younger people and those living in certain parts of the Americas.”-Lone Simonsen, George Washington University

The New Great Opium War Game: Myanmar now second largest producer of opium! Interesting correlations between opium production in Afghanistan and Myanmar (called the United States)!

19 December 2013 (22:56 UTC-07 Tango 18 December 2013)/15 Safar 1435/28 Azar 1392/17 Jia-Zi (11th month) 4711

In May 2012 the Obama regime lifted all economic sanctions against Myanmar.  The now ‘open for business’ south Asian country has become the World’s second largest producer of illegal opium.  Realize that back in 1999 the government of Myanmar said they would be opium free by 2014!

The evil British empire, as well as the U.S. government, still calls Myanmar, Burma.

The U.S. government supported Myanmar/Burma from the end of the second World War to 1997.  U.S. taxpayers sent lots-o-money and even military equipment to Myanmar/Burma in the name of fighting opium production.  By 1990 Myanmar/Burma had become the largest opium producer in the World, despite all the anti-drugs war help from the United States.

Then the government of Myanmar really cracked down hard on opium production.  In 1997 the United States began imposing sanctions against Myanmar on the grounds the government was undemocratic and repressing its own people.  By 1998, opium production in the Golden Triangle, which includes Myanmar, was cut down by 33%.  In 1999 the Myanmar government declared they would eradicate opium by 2014.

As opium production decreased in Myanmar, the U.S. government increased sanctions.

Now enter Afghanistan.  Opium production in Afghanistan did not become a problem until the Soviet occupation in the 1980s.  But it wasn’t the Soviets who were behind it.  The Russians continue to say they have evidence that the U.S. CIA instigated opium production in Afghanistan to help pay for a covert war against the Soviet Union (and don’t forget the Iran Contra scandal led by the U.S. ‘hero’ Oliver North).

However, opium production in Afghanistan did not explode until the 1990s, that just happens to be the time Myanmar was cracking down on opium production.  By 1999 Afghanistan produced a record crop of opium, the same year Myanmar officials said their country would be free of opium by 2014.

Between 1990 and 1996 Afghanistan was under the control of U.S. backed warlords.

In comes Taliban.  The Taliban took over Afghanistan in 1996.  The U.S. government, under George Bush Jr, misled the people of the United States, saying the Taliban were behind the record opium production.  Fact: From 2000 to 2002, under the Taliban government opium production in Afghanistan was cut down by an incredible 99%, in less than two years!  That stat is backed up by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime.

In 2002 the United States invaded Afghanistan, and now under U.S. occupation Afghanistan is the World’s top producer of opium, producing more opium than they ever did in the 1990s.

But wait, what about Myanmar?  The U.S. government actually returned to funding Myanmar/Burma in 2000, under the Bush Jr regime.  It was done under the guise of the evil U.S. AID.  In 2008 U.S. AID funding was increased.

By 2012, under the Obama regime, the U.S. AID mission to Myanmar became official, and Obama pledged $170-million in taxpayer funding to the country formerly known as Burma.  The Obama regime claimed it was because Myanmar had become democratic, despite outright open genocide against Muslims living in Myanmar.

Also in 2012, opium production in Myanmar had not only returned to record levels, but actually surpassed the production levels of the 1980s.  Now, in 2013 U.S./British empire controlled Myanmar is considered the second largest opium producer, after U.S./British empire controlled Afghanistan.

Russia claims most of the opium being produced in Afghanistan is being smuggled into Russia.  Iran claims to have lost thousands of border cops fighting illegal drugs smugglers from U.S./British empire controlled Afghanistan.  Iran even says some of those smugglers they’ve captured had U.S. issued documents on them.  China reports that most of the opium being produced in U.S./British empire controlled Myanmar is ending up in their country.

Now go study the history of the Opium Wars against China, and the history of The Great Game against Russia.  They’re still happening more than two hundred years later!
