Martial Law U.K.: British government ass holes kidnap baby because mom is married to an Iranian!

18 February 2014 (14:13 UTC-07 Tango)/17 Rabi ‘ath-Thani 1435/29 Bahman 1392/19 Bing-Yin (1st month) 4712

Dear Mr. Emadi,

This is Leanne McFaul, I hope you received my email dated 15th of February.  I hope to make a video recording of myself telling the entire story of this case and forward it to yourself and hopefully you can put it on Press TV.

I want to make it clear to you just what sort of extremely difficult situation people like myself are inevitably put into by the State when our children are taken from us by Social Services.  Since the very moment Social Services/Workers forced their way into my life in November 2012 they have threatened me with Criminal Court Action if I dare in any way expose their intervention in my life and the actions they were taking against myself and my baby daughter Hannah, this threat remains to this very day and it will always remain as these people (social services) rule and dictate on a very strict policy of Confidentiality.  Myself and the other unfortunate parents in my position are barley allowed to even discuss our cases with our own family members. If we were to talk to a member of the public, a friend or any member of the Press about our cases and how Social Workers have unjustly taken our children from us and the Social Workers found out about it they would not hesitate for a second in making an application to the High Court to have the matter heard within days at Court and have myself and parents alike accused of breaching the strict rules and codes of Confidentiality and subsequently we would have criminal proceedings issued against us or even worse we would have our Contact with our children taken away, out of this the Social Workers will usually write up a Confidentiality Agreement Contract whereby they will state to the parents that if they do not agree with and sign this agreement (which by the way will strip them of every human right and freedom of speech right they own from them) then they will not be allowed to see their children at all until they sign this agreement.  If the parents do indeed sign this sort of agreement then they are forever legally forbidden from exposing and revealing any information about their cases and more importantly about the Social Workers they are involved with.  Even an innocent chat with your next door neighbor about your case can land you in Court with criminal proceedings issued against you for daring to expose these heartless and bitterly cruel people that call themselves ”Social Workers” and the utterly evil crimes they have committed against you and your family.

A scenario like this has happened to myself and Khosrow on more than one occasion since Social Services forced their way into our life.  As you are aware Khosrow videoed Hannah’s abduction on the 25th March 2013, he then put the video on YouTube under the title ”Satanic Social Workers + Government Agents Abducted my 4 Months Old Baby” shortly after Hannah was taken from us, however the Social Workers whom had taken Hannah from us, Bill McDonald and Charlotte Laverty became aware of the video being on YouTube because a member of my family (out of spite towards me because she never liked me) stupidly went and informed Social Worker Charlotte Laverty about the video being on YouTube.  As soon as these above mentioned Social Workers became aware that the video of Hannah’s removal was indeed on YouTube immediately they met with us at their work premises, they stated they will be taking Court action in regard to the Video and also that we are no longer allowed to use our mobile phones to take pictures of Hannah or a short video of Hannah during our Contact sessions with Hannah.  We were then taken to Court and all Contact with our daughter was suspended until Khosrow removed the video from YouTube.  This incident occurred with the video being on YouTube back in April 2013 and still to this very day the Social Workers are still making threats against us in this regard.

Given the way and manner that these Social Workers have conspired against both myself and Khosrow, given how they unjustly and for no apparent reason kidnapped our daughter from us and once they got their hands on her they have abused her in every way possible, given the enormity of lies and allegations they have made-up about myself and Khosrow, given the fact that no matter how long we wait, no matter how many times we go to Court, numerous Consultations with our legal teams, no matter how many assessments we have successfully completed, no matter how much we have done and how long we have waited and endured, the Social Workers and the Family Courts still refuse to return our daughter to our care.  My instinct and gut feeling tells me that the Social Services have a sinister agenda against my daughter Hannah, my instinct has always told me this, since the day they forced their way into my home and into my life, I knew and I know these people have an agenda against my child.  Why else would they continually lie about me and conspire against me? Through-out this hellish ordeal, my voice, the truth, logic, sense, facts and evidence has been completely trampled upon and thrown in the garbage bin by these Social Workers, at every meeting, Court appearance, assessment and review, my voice counts for nothing with these people, I feel like I am a stranger that has been dragged off the street and sat down around their table whenever I attend one of their meetings or reviews.  Everything I say or every point I make, it is never taken seriously and is just swept aside.

From what I have researched into I have seen that there is widespread intense corruption within the Social Services through-out the United Kingdom and particularly the United States of America, there appears to be a widespread and international trend of children being taken from their parents without just reason and the parents being lied about and conspired against by the Social Workers they are involved with, this deepens my fear that there is a sinister agenda against my daughter Hannah.   I want yourself and Press TV to keep this story in your archives and report on it as much as you can as I am worried that if I speak out about this case, something might happen to me in the future. I am also very worried about my health as the implications of the stress and torture I have endured because of my daughter being taken from me and the atrocious way the Social Services have treated me for going on 15 months now has taken its toll on my health, I am currently on heart medication as the stress of this case was greatly affecting my heart beat and I was suffering from rapid heartbeat and palpitations on a daily and nightly bases.

The names and positions of all the Social Workers in my case are the following: Social Work Chairperson Rosemary Breslin, Senor Social Worker Bill McDonald, Social Worker Charlotte Laverty, Social Worker Janis Kergin and the name of the Judge whom made the order on the 25th March 2013 to have my daughter removed from our care is a Mr. Trevor Browne.

I will be forwarding you with more information soon Inshallah.

Thanking You

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 09-12 February 2014: Afghan government forces attacking U.S. personnel! UFOs crashing in Afghanistan? U.S. taxpayers being forced to fork out $300 million more in AID!

Helmand Province: In Nad Ali District, Mujahideen reporting they learned that an impending Israeli style home invasion was to take place. They booby trapped the house with explosives.  The result was the evil U.S. led invaders had to be medevaced by helicopter.

Herat Province: Italy has pledged $200-million USD of their taxpayer’s money to Afghanistan. The money is to be used to build new roads and an international airport.

Kabul Province: A U.S. convoy, near the Pul-e-Charkhi prison, was hit by a suicide car bomber.  Mujahideen then attacked with machine guns.  Initial reports said dozens of U.S. led personnel were wounded, three civilians killed.  The U.S. embassy confirmed that two of those killed were U.S. contractors: “The United States Embassy condemns the terror attack in Kabul today that killed two civilian contractors employed by the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and wounded a number of Afghans and foreign nationals.” 

News media reports out of the U.S. state of Washington revealed that the U.S. contractors killed were evil for profit prison guards!

Kapisa Province: In Tagab District, a U.S. Army Special Forces Sergeant (from Florida) and a U.S. Army Special Forces Specialist (from Oregon) were killed when Afghan National Army (ANA) personnel attacked them.  Four other U.S. Army personnel were wounded in the ‘Green on Blue’ attack.  Mujahideen report they observed the Green on Blue attack and said it was so violent that at least eight civilians were killed by the cross fire between the ANA and U.S. forces.

Khost Province: In Bak District, Obama’s Presidential Guards(?) conducted Israeli style home invasion, killing one person and wounding three others.

Maidan Wardak Province:  In Syed Abad District, an Israeli style invasion resulted in one man being kidnapped, several homes being bombed and 12 motorcycles being destroyed.  In Dai Merdad District, an unknown aircraft has crashed.  U.S. led ISAF confirmed: “We are aware of reports of an unknown aircraft down in eastern Afghanistan. Currently, there are no operational reports to indicate ISAF involvement and there were no reports of insurgent activity in the area at the time of the incident was reported.”

Nangarhar Province: In Shirzad District, reports of a major battle. At least 20 people killed.  The Afghan National Army launched an operation to take control of Mujahideen territory.  Mujahideen say the U.S.-ANA offensive kidnapped three innocent civilians.  In Chaprihar District, a U.S.-ANA (Obama’s Presidential Guards?) Israeli style night time home invasion resulted in seven people being kidnapped.

Paktika Province: Near Sharana City, an explosion wounded 11 people.

Parwan Province: At Bagram airbase a U.S. Army PFC and a U.S. Army Specialist (both from Kentucky) were killed.  The PFC was killed in a “non-hostile” incident. The Specialist was killed during an RPG attack by Mujahideen.

The Afghan Health Ministry reports the first case of polio in 13 years.  Health workers are refusing to conduct a vaccination program, not because they don’t trust the vaccine, but because they say they’re not being paid enough.

The Obama regime has announced they will milk U.S. taxpayers for another $300-million for a new USAID program. According to an Obama regime lackey, the money being stolen from the U.S. taxpayer is to help boost the Afghan economy: “There’s going to be a lull in the economy, and we want to minimize that lull.”-Larry Sampler, United States Agency for International Development

World War 3, East Asian False Flag Front: North Korean rocket made with U.S. electronics!

16 February 2014 (00:56 UTC-07 Tango)/15 Rabi ‘ath-Thani 1435/27 Bahman 1392/17 Bing-Yin (1st month) 4712

Despite international sanctions against the Democratic People’s Republic of Korea (North Korea), sections of a rocket recovered after its launch, in 2012, revealed it was made with electronic parts from the U.S., United Kingdom and Switzerland!   Is this why leaders of the U.S. and U.K. were so sure the rocket was really a ballistic missile, because they were involved?

This latest news is being leaked by unnamed Republic of Korea (South Korea) officials.  South Korea recovered some of the rocket sections that splashed down in the ocean after the December 2012 launch.  The unnamed RoK officials believe the electronic parts were not covered under U.S. led international sanctions, saying anybody could buy them!

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 05-08 February 2014: Government officials behind mass starvation? Germany decides to stay! National Guard reveals deployments for 2015! Obama regime steals Apaches from North Carolina! U.S. plans to increase opium running ops?

Jowzjan Province: In Darzab District a snow storm cut off 550 villages.  10 people were killed when they got lost in the four days long blizzard.

Nangarhar Province: In Jalalabad City, a bomb exploded near a school.  Hospital officials reported two children killed, 11 wounded.  In Chaprihar District, villagers reported that U.S. led forces (possibly Obama’s new Presidential Guards?) conducted night time Israeli style home invasions, kidnapping seven people.  In Rodat District, Mujahideen claim they ambushed a group of police trainees as they were waiting for their transportation.  Mujahideen say they caused dozens of casualties, including two NATO-ISAF (possibly contracted U.S. cops) military trainers.

Nuristan Province:  The governor and two other provincial officials were fired after being accused of stealing foreign food aid.  The food aid consisted of more than 3-thousand tons of wheat.  This comes after UN reports of unexplained skyrocketing cases of starvation of children.  The two other officials fired held the positions of Disaster Management and Rural Rehabilitation and Development.

The German government has approved an extension of Bundeswehr personnel deployments to Afghanistan past the 2014 ‘pullout’ date.  There is a catch, the Afghan government must sign the Obama regime’s ‘security’ pact. For some odd reason Germany has been pushing President Hamid Karzai to sign the imperialist deal.

The U.S. Department of Defense revealed that more than $2-billion USD in taxpayer money has been spent supposedly fighting the record levels of opium production, since the U.S. invaded Afghanistan.  The record level of U.S. citizens now addicted to heroin proves the $2-billion counternarcotics ops in Afghanistan is a big ass fail!  However, the Defense Department’s principal director for counternarcotics and global threats, Erin M. Logan, told Congress otherwise: “We believe that $2 billion has been well spent in developing specialized units and capabilities that have begun to achieve concrete results.”

Logan also revealed, using Orwellian double speak, that the U.S. government will increase its opium drug running ops: “DOD plans to continue its successful and effective partnership with the interagency and international partners to disrupt the sources of revenue for terrorists and insurgents, and reduce the corrosive, corruptive, and destabilizing impact of illicit narcotics.”

The Army National Guard’s 242nd Engineer Detachment (Connecticut) is deploying to Afghanistan.  Major General Thaddeus J. Martin revealed that National Guard personnel from across the U.S. are already scheduled for deployments in 2015!

The Army National Guard’s 829th Engineer Company (Wisconsin) is deploying to Afghanistan. “They’ll be involved with deconstructing facilities that have been used by the military in Afghanistan….”-1st Lieutenant Joe Trovato

The U.S. Department of Defense revealed they will confiscate the Army National Guard’s 1st Attack Reconnaissance Battalion’s (North Carolina) AH-64 Apache gun ships, as well as their UH-72 Lakotas.

The Army National Guard’s 1-135th Attack Reconnaissance Battalion (Missouri) has returned from Afghanistan.  The Obama regime will now confiscate their Apaches and Lakotas.

A federal court in the U.S. has sent 12 U.S. citizens to prison (for 15 days) and fined them $250 each for protesting UAV (drone) strikes.  The Upstate Coalition to Ground the Drones and End the Wars had demonstrated on the Hancock Air National Guard Base, in New York, back in 2012.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 01-04 February 2014: Karzai says F-U to the United States, again! National Guard involved in secret ops! More states reveal Obama’s plan to destroy their Guard units! Get ready for UAS!

Farah Province: In Bakwa District, provincial officials report that Mujahideen ambushed and killed at least four Afghan National Army (ANA) troops.  At least four ANA wounded.

Herat Province: In Herat City, two campaigners for presidential candidate Abdullah Abdullah, were assassinated. Abdullah Abdullah proved that he is Obama’s puppet when he stated he will sign the Obama regime’s ‘security’ deal.

Kabul Province: In Kabul City, a Madrasa in the city’s 12th district was bombed.  Some reports say it was a suicide bomber.  Two people wounded. Another explosion was heard, but no other info is available.

Kandahar Province: In Spin Boldak District, four cops were killed and one wounded when they drove over a landmine.

Nangarhar Province: In Jalalabad City, an explosion was reported, but no casualties.

Uruzgan Province: In Khas Uruzgan district, government forces claim that two Mujahideen blew themselves up, apparently during a ANA raid.

German defense minister, Ursula von der Leyen, demanded that President Hamid Karzai sign the Obama regime’s ‘security’ deal.  Karzai basically said F-Off!  This is what Karzai told the British empire news media about the U.S. occupation of Afghanistan: “This whole 12 years was one of constant pleading with America to treat the lives of our civilians as lives of people! They then began systematically waging psychological warfare on our people, encouraging our money to go out of our country. What they did was create pockets of wealth and a vast countryside of deprivation and anger!”

The Air National Guard (Iowa) revealed the Des Moines International Airport will be used as the control base for UAV (drones) operating in Afghanistan, and other parts of the world.

Army National Guard Captain (New Jersesy) and evil drone operator, Steve Iaquinto Junior, is now working for a tax sucking contractor (Sunhillo) creating the next gen of UAS (unmanned aerial system).  The UAS promises to make drones much cheaper.  The FAA has already approved six UAS test sites in New Jersey, North Dakota, Nevada, New York, Virginia and Texas.  A special joint test region was approved for Alaska, Oregon and Hawaii.

About 130 evil militiamen from the Army National Guard’s 747th Military Police Company (Massachusetts, Boston Strong Police State Anti-Gun Ass Holes) deploying to Guantanamo Bay, Cuba.  The will continue the illegal detention and torture of civilians kidnapped in Iraq and Afghanistan (called “detainee operations”).  There are still 155 (probably innocent) people being held at GITMO, more than a decade after the false flag War on Terror began! And several years after the Obama regime promised to shut the concentration camp down!

About 160 militiamen from the Army National Guard’s 829th Engineer Company (Wisconsin) deploying to Afghanistan.

51 militiamen from the Army National Guard’s Detachment 1, Company B, 2nd Battalion, 149th General Support Aviation Battalion (Oklahoma) returned from Afghanistan. The Obama regime is now in the process of stealing their air assets.

18 militiamen from the Army National Guard’s Detachment 14, Operational Support Airlift Command (Maine) returned from secret ODIN missions in Afghanistan.  ODIN missions are where they they fly recon aircraft to specifically target civilians on the ground, oh I mean terrorists. Never mind that the U.S. is the evil occupying imperial power, and the Afghans never did a goddamn thing to the United States!

The Army National Guard’s Afghan Agribusiness Development Team (Nebraska) returned from Afghanistan saying they were blown off by officials in Helmand: “My guy sat down next to me. He wouldn’t say a word. It was like the worst first date ever.”-Captain Brandon Burton

103 militiamen from the Army National Guard’s 251st Military Police Company 168th Military Police Battalion (Tennessee) returned home from Afghanistan.

The Army National Guard (Florida) revealed that the Obama regime is going to steal 30 helicopters, some used to fight wildfires, and kill 1-thousand jobs!

USA Today warns that soon to be released Army data shows suicide rates among National Guard members went up in 2013.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 27-31 January 2014: Canadian Army caught selling guns to Mujahideen? Karzai says U.S. is behind terrorist attacks! U.S. depositing fake dollars in Afghan banks? U.S. Army now using Ketamine!

Badakhshan Province: In Jaram District, villagers say U.S. supported government forces shot and killed three villagers for no apparent reason.

Ghazni Province: In Qarabagh District, an Afghan National Army (ANA) convoy was hit by a suicide bomber. Two soldiers killed, two wounded.

Helmand Province: The ANA reports one of their personnel was killed by an explosion.  In Maraj District, police say three Mujahideen accidentally blew themselves up while planting landmines.  In Sangin District, the ANA says that during an operation that captured 28 bombs, two ANA personnel were killed by an explosion. In Greshk District, Danish-NATO troops were hit by suicide bomber.  Military officials from Denmark admit they suffered casualties, but refused to give details.

Herat Province: In Kushki Kohna District, an Afghan National Police member shot and killed six cops.  ANP officials say the renegade cop has escaped and took all the weapons and ammo at the police checkpoint.

Kabul Province: In Kabul City, according to local cops for some reason a family put a bomb they found into a wood burning stove. It exploded and killed three of them, and wounded two.  The cops think the bomb was mixed in with wood that was grabbed in a pile and not noticed.  President Hamid Karzai stated that he suspects the United States is behind the suicide attacks that killed at least 29 people including dozens of UN workers from Canada, Germany, Lebanon, United Kingdom and United States.  Karzai says he now believes the uptick in terrorist attacks are coming at the hands of the Obama regime in order to justify keeping U.S. troops in Afghanistan after the supposed 2014 pullout.  Two people were arrested for depositing $9-thousand in fake U.S. money!  The suspects told cops they got the U.S. cash in Pakistan.  It’s been revealed that a former Canadian-NATO Brigadier General has been sitting in an Afghan jail for the past three weeks, for gun running!  He currently works for Dubai based private security company called GardaWorld.  Afghan officials say things can be cleared up if GardaWorld pays a “licensing fee”.

Kandahar Province: In Kandahar City, a suicide bomber killed one cop.  Officials say the bomber blew himself up as the cop approached him.  In Pacher Agam District, a suicide bomber attacked the district police HQ.   Two cops killed, three wounded.  In Bati Kot District, Mujahideen rescued a man who was kidnapped by U.S. led (Obama regime Presidential Guards?) the day before.  Mujahideen report increasing pleas for help by families of people who’ve been kidnapped.

Kunar Province: In Marwa District, four children were killed by an artillery barrage that is said to have come from Pakistan.  Three people were wounded.  In Ali Abad District, an Israeli style night time home invasion resulted in three people being kidnapped.

Maidan Wardak Province: In Syed Abad District, a U.S. (Presidential Guards?) led Israeli style home invasion resulted in five people being kidnapped.

The Afghan Ministry of Communications & Information Technology of Afghanistan announced they will launch Afghanistan’s first satellite in February.  Mmmm, I wonder who’s paying for it?

The U.S. Army is replacing the use of morphine for battle field wounds with the powerful and controversial drug ketamine.

A Washington Post report has revealed that a $4-billion USD road project is literally falling apart.  The road was built by the United States and other NATO members.  However, an unnamed U.S. officials said nothing has been done to maintain the road, and it is so bad that many Afghans arriving at the Ghazni Hospital are victims of the bad road.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 23-26 January 2014: Tax dollars used for pro-Obama propaganda! Once again, Karzai tells the U.S. to get out! U.S. officer threatens more attacks! Your sick leaders behind mass child sacrifice!

Faryab Province: In Qaisar District, six Afghan National Police killed and four wounded when Mujahideen attacked their outpost.

Ghazni Province:  In Gilan District, an Israeli style home invasion (possibly by Obama’s Presidential Guards) resulted in a shopkeeper being beaten to death in front of his family!  Locals protested the action by marching through the streets carrying the murdered shopkeepers body.

Helmand Province: In Lashkargah City, a interpreter/reporter for The New York Times was assassinated.  He was kidnapped in the morning and found dead later that day.  His family says he had just quit his job with The New York Times because of increasing threats against his life.  In Nawzad District, a U.S.-NATO-ISAF helicopter made an emergency landing.  Mujahideen claim they shot it down, they say the Apache ‘copter was supporting Afghan government forces during a day long battle.  In newly created Nomish District, six people killed, 13 wounded, when the bus they were riding in ran over a landmine.  In Marjah District, a night time Israeli style home invasion resulted in one person being kidnapped.

Kabul Province: In Kabul City, a Defense Ministry bus was blown up.  Two Afghan National Army troops killed, as well as two civilians.  Nine people wounded.  The city was hit by two days of suicide bombings.  At least four people killed, 24 wounded.

Khost Province: In Karwan Sara area, at least two cops killed by remote detonated bomb.

Kunduz Province: In Ali Abad District, an Israeli style night time home invasion resulted in three people being kidnapped. Are these Israeli style raids being carried out by the Obama regime’s recently created (and U.S. funded) Presidential Guards?

Laghman Province: In Alingar District, five teenagers killed while playing cricket.  Police blame Mujahideen, but have no evidence.  The shooters were on a motorcycle.  Mujahideen swear they had nothing to do with the drive by shootings.  Also, in a village in the same district, people said a grenade was thrown from a U.S./ANA military convoy as it passed through their village.  Three children were killed.

Logar Province: In Baraki Barak District, villagers say raiders that looked like U.S. personnel (Presidential Guards?) conducted an Israeli style home invasion, kidnapping two people.

Nangarhar Province: In Achin District, a bus ran over a landmine. One person killed, six wounded.

Parwan Province: In Bagram District, Mujahideen claim they shot down a recon UAV (drone).

Takhar Province: In Cha’ab District, two people shot dead as they were leaving a sports facility.

Another study shows a disproportionate and seemingly unexplained rise in child starvation rates.  The UN World Food Programme says that more than half (55%) of Afghan children are slowly starving to death!!!  This despite the claim by occupying powers that they are spending billions of their taxpayers’ money on helping Afghanistan!

President Hamid Karzai again stressed that the U.S. is not welcome in Afghanistan, and if the Obama regime wants him to sign a ‘security’ deal then Afghanistan must have a guarantee from Obama that the deal will end “positively” for Afghanistan.

The Afghan Attorney General’s office says they have evidence that U.S. tax dollars are being used to pay news media to write pro-Obama regime ‘security’ deal articles and advertisements (propaganda).  The bribes are coming through the International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) and a supposedly non-governmental organization known as The Asia Foundation.

In Germany, strict anti-gun laws didn’t stop an Afghan man from killing two people with a gun and a knife.  He shot one man dead, and then stabbed another man to death.  Police think it’s a vengeance killing, because the Afghan man’s brother was stabbed to death in 2007, while in Germany.

U.S. Army Lieutenant General Mark Milley is threatening more attacks if Karzai does not sign the Obama regime’s ‘security’ deal!   Specifically he said more high profile and spectacular attacks will take place within the next few months.

The president of the Czech Republic paid a visit to President Hamid Karzai.  News reports say they discussed their own security deal and even the possibility of Afghans going to university in Czech Republic.

The Afghan parliament has banned smoking in public places.

The Army National Guard’s 144th Military Police Company, from the U.S. state of Michigan, returned home from Afghanistan.

Martial Law European Union: Police confirm they’re developing remote kill switch to target your car!

31 January 2014 (02:42 UTC-07 Tango)/29 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1435/11 Bahman 1392/01 Yi-Chou (1st month) 4712 (Happy New Year!)

Several European Union (the European member of the evil Trilateral Commission) news outlets are reporting that a secretive pro-police agency called European Network of Law Enforcement Technologies Services (ENLETS) has revealed they’ve been working on creating a remote kill switch for all vehicles in the EU.

Soon all ground vehicles in the EU will be required to have such a kill switch installed.  Critics are pointing out that there is no evidence that European police need such a kill switch. If you’ve lived in the EU you’d know that most roads don’t lend themselves to high speed chases.  Also, critics point out that European police have been conducting ever increasing random vehicle checkpoints, forcing drivers to stop anyway (Did you know that in Germany the Polizei conduct sobriety checkpoints looking for people who use prescription drugs, or even non-prescription cold medication?).

The EU’s Standing Committee on Operational Cooperation on Internal Security  (COSI, the EU’s version of Homeland Security) approved the remote kill switch idea.

I’ve read reports that similar technology is already being used by EU vehicle sellers who use it to disable cars whose owners failed to make the car payments.  In some cases it not only disables the car, but causes the horn to go off until the owner makes a payment!

Breaking News: Nuclear disaster in the United Kingdom? Disaster was inevitable?

31 January 2014 (01:55 UTC-07 Tango)/29 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1435/11 Bahman 1392/01 Yi-Chou (1st month) 4712 (Happy New Year!)

“In response to an operational condition on the Sellafield site a conservative and prudent decision has been taken, to operate the site at reduced manning levels, commensurate with safe operations.”-official statement

Reports that a possible nuclear event is unfolding at the United Kingdom’s Sellafield nuclear reprocessing site.  All non-essential workers are being told to stay home due to rapidly rising radiation levels at the site!

Sellafield is located in in Cumbria, England.  It is being used to decommission nearby nuclear reactors.  It is the largest nuke site in all of Europe, covering six square kilometers (2.3 square miles) and employing more than 10-thousand people.

Just a couple of days ago it was revealed that roe deer within the site’s boundaries will be killed off.  Officially the reason is that there is skyrocketing wild deer population in England, and they are running out of wild spaces to live.  Maybe the real reason is that they’ve become radioactive?

Also, a week ago it was revealed that John Clarke, head of the U.K.’s Nuclear Decommissioning Authority, criticized the way a contractor was running the Sellafield site.  The site is run by Nuclear Management Partners (NMP), and Clarke said NMP’s “…current performance levels….are not acceptable.”

Public Accounts Committee member, Margaret Hodge, also criticized NMP saying “…more evidence …emerges of incompetence at Sellafield….”

On 18 January 2014, the Guardian/Observer stated: “The government stands accused of drafting the consultation process to select the site of a multibillion-pound nuclear waste storage facility to favour a location that some geologists claim is unsuitable for burying radioactive material.

Two leading geologists told the Observer that they believed the government was keen to push through Sellafield as the site of the facility, a subterranean tunnel network that would be the size of Carlisle, despite an official inquiry demonstrating that its geology is highly fractured and unsuitable for the safe storage of radioactive waste.”

On 17 January 2014, NMP/Sellafield Limited lost its appeal against a massive $1-million USD fine.  Back in February 2013 NMP/Sellafield was fined for dumping nuclear waste in a local garbage dump!

Norovirus Vomiting Bug: Cruise ships hit hard! Japan hit hard, again! Hospital infections & deaths being hushed up? Using too many drugs can make it worse!

26 January 2014 (01:50 UTC-07 Tango)/24 Rabi ‘al-Awwal 1435/06 Bahman 1392/26 Gui-Chou (12th month) 4711

Gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) can cause norovirus like symptoms.  Most tumors are detected after misdiagnosis.

India: A new medical study, to be published in February, shows that the more prescription drugs you use, the harder it is to deal with tummy infections.  Specifically the vomiting bug bacteria known as shigellosis.  Researchers warn against using nalidixic acid, ampicillin, co-trimoxazole and ciprofloxacin.

Italy: A study says giving your baby probiotics will reduce the chances of it getting some types of gastrointestinal diseases.  Probiotics are ‘good’ bacteria that help your stomach.

Aomori Prefecture, Japan: At least 77 people with symptoms of norovirus after eating box lunches (bentos) they bought at a store. The store has been ordered to stop selling the lunches.

Gunma Prefecture, Japan:  At least 2800 people sickened after eating frozen foods laced with malathion.  An arrest has been made.  Company officials have apologized.  Police suspect the employee they arrested deliberately poisoned the frozen foods, over the course of four production runs, because of issues regarding his pay.  The employee denies the accusation.

Hiroshima, Japan: 303 Junior High School students, and 20 teachers from ten schools got sick.  Health officials suspect norovirus.  Lunches for all ten schools are supplied by the same food service contractor.

Norovirus (aka Norwalk Virus), is a surface contact bug, meaning you pick it up by touching or eating it.  It is not influenza and there is still no vaccine for fast evolving RNA norovirus.  The only ‘treatment’ is to keep the sick person hydrated.

Exotic anti-biotic soaps can’t kill norovirus, or any other virus for that matter, because anti-biotics are only for bacteria.  Despite that, even hand ‘sanitizers’ made with alcohol can’t totally get rid of norovirus.   Guess what apparently works?  According to the U.S. CDC old fashioned hand soap is best.  Consumer Reports says to leave the soap on your hands for a minimum of 20 seconds.  Also, in public restrooms use a paper towel to turn off the faucet and to open the door, do not touch surfaces with your bare hands after washing them.

Wash household surfaces with bleach.

The worse thing is that you can be infected and not have any symptoms.  An infected person can spread norovirus, yet not feel sick themselves. If you think you might be infected do not cook food for other people. People recovering from traditional symptoms of norovirus can continue spreading the bug for days after feeling better (some reports say weeks).
