Fukushima WIPP Radiation fallout: 6 years old with radiation, he’s now off limits! Oregon tuna contaminated! Chemical explosion at WIPP? TEPCo makes deal with British Devil! Fukushima evacuations false flag op to destroy families? Radiation treatment for victims of the BP oil disaster?

05 May 2014 (22:35 UTC-07 Tango 04 May 2014)/05 Rajab 1435/13 Ordibehesht 1393/07 Ji-Si 4712

In the failed U.S. city of Chicago, doctors at the Comer Children’s Hospital are treating a six years old boy suffering from cancer, with the very thing that causes cancer; radiation.  This is a relatively new ‘treatment’ using metaiodobenzylguanidine combined with radioactive iodine, but now the kid is so radioactive nobody can come near him!

It’s a new experimental form of radiation ‘treatment’ for a cancer known as neuroblastoma.  The victim was unable to directly touch anything for at least one week, as his radiation levels dropped.  Everything he had to touch was covered in plastic.

Even though it’s an experimental treatment doctors somehow claim it has a 40% success rate.

In New Mexico U.S.A., video and pics show damage inside the military’s Waste Isolation Pilot Plant (WIPP).   Officials say ballast bags used to weigh down storage drums “have been disturbed”.

The video and pics were taken in Panel 7, the newest addition to the deep underground nuke waste storage site.   At this time investigators do not know why the ballast/protective bags moved.  These bags filled with magnesium oxide weigh freakin’ 1905kg (4200 pounds)!

Investigators are suspecting that recently arrived waste drums from Los Alamos Nuclear Laboratory (LANL) ruptured (what they really mean is ‘exploded’, because what could move bags weighing 1905kg?), which would have caused the radiation leaks.

Concerns are that the drums might have been improperly packed, causing a chemical reaction.  Since WIPP has been shutdown all LANL waste was being shipped to Texas, but now that has been halted as well.

If you don’t like your food contaminated with radiation get ready to protest the U.S. FDA, and stop eating seafood from the Gulf of Mexico.  The Food and Drug Administration now approves of the process known as irradiation of food products!  It’s currently being done with seafood caught along the Gulf of Mexico.  Is anybody suspicious of the fact that years after the BP oil disaster, fisheries in the area are resorting to radiation to kill the super bacteria now being found in the seafood?

In Oregon, U.S.A., albacore tuna are showing increasing levels of radiation.  Researchers at Oregon State University say they are detecting trace levels of cesium-137 and cesium-134 in recent tuna catches.  The levels are three times higher as compared to before the Fukushima Daiichi melt downs, but scientists say it’s still not a threat yet: “You can’t say there is absolutely zero risk because any radiation is assumed to carry at least some small risk.  But these trace levels are too small to be a realistic concern.  A year of eating albacore with these cesium traces is about the same dose of radiation as you get from spending 23 seconds in a stuffy basement from radon gas, or sleeping next to your spouse for 40 nights from the natural potassium-40 in their body.”-Delvan Neville, research assistant

In Japan, a new study shows that the evacuation of families, from Fukushima Prefecture’s nuclear disaster areas, for some reason intentionally spilt up 49% of the families!

The officials in charge of the evacuations used the following excuses to split up families: Education of children, employment requirements for adults, healthcare issues and temporary housing issues.

Three years later family members are reporting that they are still split up.   Previous studies have shown that evacuees are suffering the highest rate of suicides in Japan.

Proven to be completely, and even by their own admissions, incompetent Tokyo Electric Power Company has signed a deal with United Kingdom’s own evil nuclear power operator Sellafield.

Sellafield operates a nuclear power plant in Cumbria.  Nearby is a massive (1 million cubic meters ) nuclear waste dump, operated jointly by an American-French-Swedish private consortium led by California based URS Corporation.  It’s called Drigg Low-Level Waste Repository.  A new report by Britain’s Environmental Agency warns that increasing erosion of the coastline threatens to expose the nuclear waste underground.

U.S. Civil War 2014: Miami gun “buyback” a whopping failure! Target & Publix want your guns!

04 May 2014 (13:31 UTC-07 Tango)/04 Rajab 1435/12 Ordibehesht 1393/06 Ji-Si 4712

In the Sunshine State of Florida, NAZI cops in Miami tried, yet again, to implement one of their gun “buybacks”, as if they were the ones who sold the guns to the public in the first place!

It happened on Saturday, at the Little Haiti Soccer Park.  Anybody dumb enough to give the cops a gun got a shitty retail Target or Publix gift card (worth much less than what most quality guns cost) in return!

A whopping six guns were turned in!   Now compare that to a gun stealing program that Miami cops conducted in December, 2013, where they were able to get their hands on only 79 guns.  Apparently people living in Miami know the value of their guns!

Martial Law U.S.A. 2014: False Flag op to turn your schools into prisons, revealed by U.S. CDC?

04 May 2014 (13:15 UTC-07 Tango)/04 Rajab 1435/12 Ordibehesht 1393/06 Ji-Si 4712

In a “No shit Sherlock!” moment the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has concluded that victims of school bullying are highly likely to retaliate with increasing violence.  Why?  Because the gottdamned school officials, and even parents and other students, don’t take the victimizations seriously!

This is not the first time the CDC has issued such a warning, but now, the anti-gun medical community is using the latest CDC survey to postulate that victims of bullying have been stock piling weapons for a massive attack on schools across the U.S.!

Another news report claims as many as 200-thousand students are gearing up for war! 

Is this the real reason for anti-gun laws, because those who want to ban guns are really the bullies trying to protect their sorry asses?

For some odd reason the U.S. CDC’s conclusions are being presented today, not to U.S. news media, but to a meeting of doctors in anti-gun Canada.  Obviously the U.S. CDC study will be used in Canada to justify even more gun bans.

Why doesn’t anybody address the real problem: The Bullies!  Oh yeah, they’re the ones running The System.

Oh by the way, your mainstreamer news media failed to report that all the recent school shootings, stabbings, and gun confiscations involved students who had been threatened with assault by other students just days prior!

Also, the U.S. CDC has repeatedly pointed out that nobody has ever evaluated the effectiveness of current anti-bullying programs at U.S. schools.  With continued violence, it’s obvious they’re a total failure!

Exceptional Failed State: Is ObamaCare the new eugenics death machine responsible for skyrocketing deaths of pregnant women in the U.S.?

03 May 2014 (22:33 UTC-07 Tango 02 May 2014)/03 Rajab 1435/11 Ordibehesht 1393/05 Ji-Si 4712

For the past few years the death rate for pregnant women in the United States has been going up, in fact the United States is the only ‘high income’ country that continues to have an increase in maternal deaths!  One new study shows 2013 was one of the worst years yet, and another study says it’s the bad economy, stupid!

“The United States is among just eight countries in the world to experience an increase in maternal mortality since 2003 – joining Afghanistan and countries in Africa and Central America……The study, ‘Global, regional, and national levels and causes of maternal mortality during 1990-2013: a systematic analysis for the Global Burden of Disease Study 2013,’ published May 2 in The Lancet, ranked the United States number 60 in the list of 180 countries on maternal deaths, compared to its rank of 22 in 1990, demonstrating how it has fallen behind globally. By contrast, China rose to number 57, up from number 116 in 1990.    In the US, 18.5 mothers died for every 100,000 live births in 2013, more than double the figures for maternal mortality in Saudi Arabia (7) and Canada (8.2), and more than triple that for the United Kingdom (6.1).   The biggest increase in maternal mortality by age group occurred in women 20-24. In 1990, 7.2 women in this age group died for every 100,000 live births and in 2013, 14 died for every 100,000 live births.”–University of Washington’s Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation

A new study published by University of California San Francisco blamed fear of rising costs of health care for the continuing increase in maternal deaths, even with the implementation of Obama Care.

The researchers found that hospitals with “middling competition” had lower charges than hospitals that had higher labor costs, or were purely for profit only.  However, they also discovered that hospitals that did work for people with no insurance actually had the cheapest charges: “Hospitals in markets with higher uninsurance rates charged significantly less for caesarean sections, while for-profit hospitals and hospitals with higher wage indices charged more.”

In other words, you’re going to pay more for your health care, because Obama Care forces everybody to get insurance!

The UCSF researchers believe the reason more pregnant women are dying in California is because they are totally confused about how much health care is going to cost.  Couple that with the fact that the economy sucks, and that’s why they opt not to get help.  In other words, it’s low income pregnant women who’re being killed off!

The study also found that a person’s “demographics” also determined how much they are charged for hospital care.

“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

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 28-30 April 2014: U.S. cops kill National Guardsmen? Obama regime shuts down National Guard unit after they left for Afghanistan? Imam has ears & nose chopped off! Secret U.S. prisons identified! Mujahideen kill more U.S. troops! More claims of election fraud!

Baghlan Province: Local police arrested a family after they chopped off the nose and ears of a their Imam! Police say it happened at a wedding ceremony, where for some reason the family accused the Imam of raping their 12 years old daughter.  The Imam is now in the hospital (Afghan news media has published gruesome pics of the Imam minus nose and ears).  Hey, all you Christians in the U.S. and Europe, maybe you should do the same thing to all those hundreds of child molesters posing as Christian priests!

Faryab Province: In Kohistan District, two Coordination of Humanitarian Assistance employees were assassinated.

Helmand Province:  On Camp Bastion, an investigation launched by outgoing President Hamid Karzai has identified three secret British empire Red Coat operated prisons!  The Afghan investigators say dozens of Afghans are being held in each prison, with no documentation for why they are there or for how long they’ve been there!

Kabul Province:  Independent Electoral Complaints Commission admitted that 71 new complaints of election fraud have been added to the thousands already received. They also announced they’ve invalidated votes from 524 polling stations!  Remember Obama and the UN declared the election a “success” even before votes were counted!   Apparently the British empire thinks Afghan reconstruction is Cricket!  An Australian has been put in charge of the Afghan National Cricket Academy: “I’ve even heard the Taliban support cricket. So from that point of view hopefully everything is fine.”-Peter Anderson

Kandahar Province:  On Kandahar airbase, an investigation launched by outgoing President Hamid Karzai has identified three secret U.S. yankee imperialist operated prisons! The Afghan investigators say dozens of Afghans are being held in each prison, with no documentation for why they are there or for how long they’ve been there!

Kapisa Province: In Nejrab District, a U.S. Army 10th Mountain Division Sergeant was shot and killed when Mujahideen ambushed his patrol.  Provincial government officials claim six Mujahideen were killed.

Logar Province: In Baraki Barak District, a U.S. Army 10th Mountain Division PFC was shot and killed when Mujahideen attacked his unit. Afghan National Army officials report they were attacked by Mujahideen as well, however, they claim they did not suffer any casualties.

Nangarhar Province:  The American University of Afghanistan opened for business.

Paktia Province: In Dand-e-Patan District,  several battles resulted in  Afghan National Police and Border Police being killed or wounded.  At least two killed, five wounded. Government officials said Mujahideen were killed, but gave no number.  Afghan National Army (ANA) officials claim they’ve killed dozens of insurgents from Pakistan.  The ANA had to call in air strikes to save their asses from the lesser equipped Afghan and Pakistani Mujahideen.

Paktika Province: In Zeruk District, the Afghan National Directorate of Security and Afghan National Army claims they’ve killed between 49 and 60 foreign insurgents, after 300 foreign insurgents attacked a Afghan National Army base.  Five Afghan government personnel were killed, one captured by insurgents, six wounded.

Samangan Province: In Dara-e-Suf Bala District, a major coal mine exploded, killing 20 people.  25 people are trapped inside the mine!

The Washington Post has revealed that the official government torturer of Afghanistan has been given safe haven in the U.S. by the Bush/Obama regime!  Investigative journalists have discovered that Haji Gulalai now lives in sunny California!  After years working under the Bush regime, Gulalai suddenly ‘disappeared’ in 2009 when Obama became president.

In Maine, U.S.A., it’s been revealed that after the Army National Guard’s 133rd Engineer Battalion deployed to Afghanistan in August, their armory was quietly shutdown!  It was also revealed that the Gardiner City officials knew in advance that the armory would be closed once the Engineers were deployed!  When the Engineers return from Afghanistan they will be turned into a smaller less combat effective unit, that will have to travel to Pennsylvania for training!

In Vermont, U.S.A., someone shot and killed a veteran CWO-2 Army National Guardsmen.  The CWO-2 was wounded in Afghanistan in 2010, however, he got killed in his home state this past weekend after being shot in the head, torso and neck! NAZI cops from two jurisdictions refuse to publicize details, especially who shot the veteran!  Vermont National Guard officials would only imply that they suspect two people assassinated the 25 years of service veteran! The veteran had PTSD connected to his head wound suffered while in Afghanistan, and 11 combat deployments over seven years!!!

About 150 militiamen of the Army National Guard’s 1413th Engineer    Company (Indiana, U.S.A.) deploying to Afghanistan.

World War 3, Iran: Obama regime allows Boeing & GE to avoid sanctions! Direct flights to resume after 35 years of sanctions?

“Iranian airlines will be ready to buy 40 jets a year.”-Ali Reza Jahangirian, Iran’s Civil Aviation Organization

Despite tough talk against Iran, the Obama regime is allowing some U.S. companies to violate the Obama regime’s own sanctions against Iran.

Today it’s been revealed that Boeing and GE will be allowed, by the Obama regime, to sell aircraft to Iranian airlines, and airlines will be able to resume direct flights between the U.S. and Iran!  Direct flights have been on hold (by the U.S. government) since the successful 1979 revolution against the U.S. puppet government in Iran.

The Iranian Civil Aviation Organization hopes direct commercial flights can begin by 2025.

At the beginning of April it was quietly revealed that the U.S. Department of Treasury is allowing Boeing and General Electric (GE) to sell aircraft parts to Iran, under the guise of ensuring “safety” of international flights.  Some government officials even used the mysterious disappearance of MH370/CZ748 as an excuse for letting big U.S. corporations avoid Obama regime sanctions.

U.S. made aircraft parts have been blocked from being sold to Iran ever since the U.S. Reagan regime imposed sanctions in the early 1980s (and then Rumsfeld paid Iraq to invade Iran).

If you’ve been following the economic news you’d be able to figure out that the real reason for allowing Boeing and GE to do business with Iran is because they are losing their asses financially.  It looks like the crony U.S. capitalist system is such a failure that the U.S. government has to back off it’s tough rhetoric against ‘enemy’ countries.

Iranian airlines say they want to buy at least 400 Boeing made airliners, which could save the faltering company’s ass.

U.S. Civil War 2014: War rages in Chicago! Two killed, seven shot and wounded! Police no help!

“I’m gonna die, but I love you.”-last words of man killed by his girlfriend, to his eight years old son who witnessed the woman stab his dad

From Tuesday evening to just a couple of hours ago, dozens of shootings rang out in Chicago-land.  Pathetic NAZI cops say they have no suspects!

At least seven wounded in separate shootings.

In an area called Back of the Yards, three men and one woman were shot and wounded, apparently for no reason.  This is the same area were a 14 years old girl shot and killed another girl on Monday.

Later at night a 16 years old boy was shot in the hand, supposedly by someone who stepped out of a car.   Then early this morning two men in the Lawndale area were shot and wounded by people shooting from a van.

And on Monday, all that anti-gun bull shit failed to stop a woman from stabbing her boyfriend to death, in front of his eight years old son!  Court records say she did it because her boyfriend didn’t buy her anything at the shopping mall!

Full blown Civil War in Chicago!

U.S. Civil War 2014: MRAP spotted in Pocatello! Department of Defense circumvents local City Councils? More proof the U.S. is a failed state!

“Why? Why would the city the size of Mason City need an armored tank like this?”-resident of Mason City, Iowa, population 28-thousand

“I think to have something like this made available to us, why shouldn’t we?” -Mike Lashbrook, deceptive Mason City police chief

“There are no mines, no ambushes and no IED’s buried under the streets in our United States of America. MRAPs were designed for uncivilized societies and war zones, and to see them on our streets in our local community is an affront to American civility.   This trend must end! And Idaho is where we take a stand and say No! NO to the police chiefs who flex their department’s macho machines in their ultra masculine showdown with an imagined enemy.“–Tony Snesko, candidate for Idaho State Senator

More and more ex-military Mine Resistant Armored Protected (MRAP) vehicles are being seen in small rural communities across the U.S.  Just last week I drove past a sand colored MRAP while driving down Garret Way in Pocatello, Idaho.

No, it can’t be for Pocatello or Bannock County, because Bannock County already spent big bucks on a brand new armored BearCat (similar to those armored cars seen patrolling Boston Strong).  So what was the MRAP doing in Pocatello?

I found some reports that said the U.S. Department of Defense Law Enforcement Support Office (LESO) is giving away MRAPs to rural towns.  If that’s the case why did private donors waste all their money (at least $200-thousand USD) buying a brand new BearCat for the Bannock County Sheriff’s Department?

The most recent recipient of a free ex-military MRAP is the Willimantic Police Department in anti-2nd Amendment Connecticut. It’s strange that they got a free MRAP, a Willimantic cop even contradicted himself when he tried to explain the necessity for such a monster vehicle: “This is not a violent city. But we have a lot of narcotics here, a lot of high risk warrants. We have the need here, and now we have the equipment.”-Stan Parizo Jr, SWAT team leader

I’ve also discovered that many websites are calling all heavily armored wheeled vehicles MRAPS.  To be sure the BearCat could be qualified as an MRAP, but it is not used by the military.  What I saw last week is specifically a military issued MRAP, possibly first generation as I’ve yet to find a pic of the beast on the internet, finding only pics of newer MRAPS (It looked similar to the British empire made BAE Caiman.  I knew I should’ve whipped my camera out!).

Other reports I found said the free ex-military MRAPs are only “on loan” from the Department of Defense.   A Mason City, Iowa, reporter was surprised to find out that two of three city council members were totally unaware that their small police department just got a free “on loan” MRAP! 

The following list are small cities that have received supposedly free, possibly “on loan” ex-military MRAPs:

Eureka, California, population 27-thousand

Watertown, Connecticut, population 22-thousand

Willimantic, Connecticut, population 17-thousand

Caldwell, Idaho, population 47-thousand, on waiting list for free MRAP

Boise, Idaho, population 212-thousand, British empire BAE Caiman category 1  MRAP.  In November 2013, the city NAZI cops used their MRAP, as well as calling neighboring Nampa’s MRAP, to arrest one man suspected of kidnapping.  The cops claimed they had reason to believe the man was armed with high velocity guns and even bombs!

Nampa, Idaho, population 84-thousand, British empire BAE Caiman category 1 MRAP.  Nampa cops claim they need the MRAP because they shot up their Cold War era armored truck.  They wanted to test the armor on the truck and they claim they were able to shoot through it with handguns and BB guns!  That’s bullshit because a BB gun can’t even penetrate your skin, I know because I pulled a BB out of the skin of a childhood friend who was shot with one point blank in the throat!

Preston, Idaho, population 5100 (yes, this is the town used in the movie Napoleon Dynamite), International MaxxPro category 1 MRAP.  Preston’s Police Department consists of six cops!!!  Here’s how the ignorant Mormon Preston police chief justified having an MRAP: “There isn’t much violent crime in Preston, but how much does it take? There wasn’t much crime in that little Connecticut town before Sandy Hook, but it would have been nice if they would have had an MRAP on the day of the school shooting.”-Ken Geddes

Please explain how having an MRAP would’ve changed what happened at Sandy Hook!  The deed was done by the time cops arrived on scene!

Justice, Illinois, population 13-thousand

Madison, Indiana, population 12-thousand

Mason City, Iowa, population 28-thousand

Dundee, Michigan, population 3900

Roanoke Rapids, North Carolina, population 16-thousand

North Augusta, South Carolina, population 22-thousand

Walla Walla, Washington, population 32-thousand, reports out of Walla Walla say their new free MRAP cost taxpayers $733-thousand!

The Washington Post has its own list.

U.S. Civil War 2014: Maryland cop tries to terminate victim in Pennsylvania! Prescription drugs involved? More proof cops are criminals!

30 April 2014 (01:58 UTC-07 Tango)/29 Jumada t-Tania 1435/10 Ordibehesht 1393/02 Wu-Chen(4th month) 4712

A Baltimore City cop, who lives in Pennsylvania, tried to assassinate his neighbor!  To add insult to injury, he was the one who called 911!

The victim was sitting in a car when he was shot, but is in stable condition in hospital despite being hit several times.

A nurse who lives on the same city block described the murderous cop (now charged with attempted murder) as appearing to be on drugs: “His gun was already holstered. He was very distraught, as if he was in a daze.”-Helen Hoffman

It turns out this same Maryland cop tazered and shot to death a fellow Baltimore cop, in 2008!  It should be pointed out that the victim was not only a cop but also the leader of a motorcycle gang, and had attacked the cop who shot him!  An investigation found the victim never announced himself as a fellow cop.  Sounds like a lot of crooked cops working for Baltimore.

U.S. job losses & store closings 21 January 2014: Convergys shutdown! “Nobody’s going to buy a $40 loaf of bread!” Lots more healthcare cuts! More small business owners say there is no economic recovery!

Incomplete list of announced closings & layoffs.

Arkansas:  The Arkansas Children’s Hospital killed five top management jobs.  In response to news media questions, hospital officials simply said it was due to “restructuring”.

California:  In Los Angeles, school bus contractor Atlantic Express laid off 307 people!  In Sunnyvale, Bayer Health Care laid off seven employees.

Colorado: In Denver, new software company Convercent already in trouble.  32 employees laid off due to lack of sales.

Illinois:  In Geneva, Great Harvest Bread store shutdown.  The co-owner blamed Walmart and inflation for killing his operation: “…..we can’t compete with the supermarkets that have really stepped it up. You go to Walmart and Target, where they can get ingredients for pennies on the dollar.  For me, the price of ingredients has gone up 400%, and my prices can’t keep up with that!  Nobody’s going to buy a $40 loaf of bread!”-Marty Kane

Kansas: British empire Canadian company Bombardier killing another 250 Yankee jobs at its LearJet factory in Wichita!  This on top of the 350 Yankee jobs announced at the beginning of January, and on top of the 200 laid off in December!   It’s blamed on crashing sales and production problems.

Michigan:  In Marquette, Farmer Q’s Market shutdown.  The owner said despite making profits he can see the writing on the wall for the U.S. economy: “When you start a business from ground zero or scratch and build into what it is after eight years, it’s bittersweet to be closing a profitable business in this economy. However, you have to look at the future and what the future is.”-Tom Brian

Mississippi: In Saltillo, a Lane Furniture factory shutdown, 480 jobs lost!  It’s blamed on the take over by Heritage Home Group.

Missouri:  Newly formed furniture company, Heritage Home Group, announced they must reorganize, already, meaning  they will layoff employees.

Nevada:  God can’t stop California owned Saint Rose Dominican Hospitals from killing jobs, for the second time in 12 months.  This time 40 nurses from the Las Vegas Valley hospital system will become jobless.  It’s blamed on Obama Care.

New Jersey:  Inspira Health Network killed 47 jobs.  It’s blamed on Obama Care forcing healthcare providers to move away from “hospital-centric” systems.

North Carolina: In Swansboro, Nicky’s restaurant shutdown, blaming the bad economy.  Local news reports said the owners gave no warning of the shutdown.  Thomasville Furniture Industries shutdown, 84 jobs lost.  It’s blamed on the take over by Heritage Home Group (see above).

Ohio:  Hospice of Dayton killed 12 more jobs, directly blaming Obama Care: “As we look to 2014, we are faced with reduced reimbursement….”  The Hospice laid off at least seven people back in September.

Oklahoma: At the Woodland Hills Mall, clothing store The Limited shutdown.

Texas:  Energy storage and management startup Xtreme Power already chapter 11 bankrupt busted!  It’s only hope to stay alive is to find a new owner!  In Brownsville, Convergys shutdown a major call center, 362 jobs lost!

18-20 January 2014: More small business owners say ‘Economic Recovery’ is a big lie! 

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.
