More Fukushima Fallout: Strontium spreading!

21 October 2013 (04:25 UTC-07 Tango)/16 Dhu’l-Hijja 1434/29 Mehr 1392/17 Ren-Xu (9th month) 4711

After Typhoon Wipha blew through Japan, Tokyo Electric Power Company reporting spreading contamination due to heavy rain.

TEPCo is now reporting that eleven ridiculously short barriers around the leaking contaminated water storage tank farms, are overflowing with rainwater.  Rainwater overflowing six barriers is testing positive with strontium contamination, 71 times the government safe limits!

The barriers are only 30 centimeters (11.8 inches) high!  TEPCo subcontracted workers also found highly radioactive water in drainage ditches, that lead to the Pacific Ocean.

For the past two years TEPCo had ordered that during rain storms the drain pipes on the barriers be opened to allow the rainwater to run out.  However, in August this year is was discovered that rainwater was becoming contaminated after running off the water storage tanks.  Since then the drainage pipes are kept closed, and rainwater is pumped into small tanks.

TEPCo admitted their water pumps could not keep up with the latest heavy rainfall.  Not only that, but it turns out the small water tanks they’re using are too small, as one tank recently overflowed while being filled, for hours before anybody noticed.

On 16 October, Japanese news media reported that water in a drainage ditch contained 1400 becquerels (bq) of radiation per liter.  The day before there was only 19 bq!

On 18 October, Japanese media reported radiation suddenly skyrocketing in groundwater test wells.  As much as 400-thousand bq per liter of radiation was detected in one well.  More than 6-thousand times higher than levels detected the day before, in the same well!

Another typhoon is expected to hit Japan this week.

In related news, fishermen in the area have decided to resume fishing despite the never ending contamination of the Pacific Ocean.  They claim the fish they’ve caught are not contaminated.

Exceptional Failed State: U.S. job losses & store closings 08 August 2013. Evil banks give up on stealing people’s homes, turn to laying off their own employees! More proof the layoffs will continue for years to come! More proof Obama Care is trying to kill you!

Incomplete list of announced closings and layoffs:

AOL (American On [Off ?] Line) announced more layoffs, this time as many as 500 Patch Editors!

The biggest dairy producer in the United States, Texas based Dean Foods, announced they are closing as many as 12 dairies by mid 2014.  They blame increased competition and declining sales, but that sounds far fetched for a company accused of being a monopoly!   Dean Foods also operations in Belgium, France, United Kingdom and Netherlands.  Dean Foods was taken over by Suiza Foods (the original Suiza Dairy is in Puerto Rico).  Suiza then changed their name to Dean Foods and began taking over dairies throughout the United States.  In 2010 the attorney generals of Wisconsin and Michigan charged Dean Foods with creating a monopoly.  In 2011 a law suit accused Dean Foods of falsifying ingredients on Horizon milk labeled as organic.  In 2012, it was revealed that Dean Foods was behind a California proposition that would have allowed companies to avoid disclosing to consumers if their food products contained GMO ingredients.  Reports say Dean Foods owns operations in the following U.S. states: Alabama, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Louisiana, Kentucky, Maine, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Minnesota, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, South Carolina, North Dakota, South Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Texas, Utah, Virginia, and Wisconsin.  Suiza/Dean Foods’ biggest client is Walmart.

Colorado: Legal drug pusher, Array Biopharma, laid off about 50 people.  It’s because a deal with Amgen, to market their new drug to treat type 2 diabetes, fell through.  Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mountains closed two health centers.  Officials blame it on ten years of no public funding.

Florida: The Florida Virtual School laid off 802 online teachers!!!  It’s blamed on a 32% decline in student enrollment, compared to last year.  I’ve asked this before; where are all the students going? (leaving the country?)

Indiana: Purdue University laid off seven faculty members at its Calumet campus.  12 teachers were forced to retire early.  Four assistant professors have been warned that this school year is their last year of employment.  Two assistant professors were told that they will be laid off in 2015.  School officials blamed a crash in students signing up for core classes, which is a sign that people are realizing that higher education does not result in finding good paying jobs that can help them payoff their student loans.

Missouri: In Affton, Red Racks Thrift Store closed down.  The owner would not respond to questions from local news media.

New York: In DeWitt, the privately funded Manlius Pebble Hill school laid off 12 employees.  According to reports, school officials intentionally decided to reduce student enrollment by 40, thus justifying the layoffs.

North Carolina: WakeMed closed down two nursing homes. 99 jobs lost.  Another 14 jobs are being outsourced.  Company officials stated they’ve always relied on Medicare payments, never making a profit, but now Obama Care is the straw that’s breaking their back: “We have always lost money in the tens of millions, and it has gotten worse over time, these other financial cuts to the healthcare environment and the healthcare reimbursement structure right now, we can no longer afford to sustain those kinds of losses.”-Elaine Rohlik

Ohio: FirstEnergy laid off 250 people!  The electric power company is also reducing health care benefits to employees.  The company is changing its retirement program for employees.  Company officials blame it on increasing government environmental regulations, and declining revenues.

Oregon: In Coos Bay, a couple of weeks after Sears Holdings announced they will close the Kmart, local news media revealed the store was averaging $4 million USD in sales every year.  At the end of July, greedy Sears Holdings officials had stated they were closing the store because it was not making enough money!

Pennsylvania: In Upper Saint Clair, Too Big to Jail Bank of America laid off 209 employees!  The evil bank officials admitted that the home mortgage disaster has reached a point where it’s not worth it for banks to continue stealing people’s homes!

South Carolina: Too Big to Jail JP Morgan Chase laying off 450 people between now and mid 2014.  The evil bank officials admitted that the home mortgage disaster has reached a point where it’s not worth it for banks to continue stealing people’s homes!

Tennessee: In Nashville, public relations company, Katcher Vaughn & Bailey, ceased to exist.  The problem was that most of their clients are in the failing health care industry.

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.

World War 3, Asian Front-Afghanistan, 01-03 October 2013: Russia building up troops on border, preps for invasion? Obama regime allows Al Qaeda leader to run for president! More hypocrisy with taxpayer money! More illegal imprisonment by U.S. forces!

Helmand Province: Lashkargah City, Afghanistan’s version of Homeland Security, National Directorate of Security (NDS), bragged that they stopped a suicide bombing operation.  Guess what happened?  Major explosions rang out right after their claim.  A car bomb went off.  In a related incident, the mayor and a district assistant, from Garmsir District, were ambushed and assassinated by Mujahideen while they traveled to Lashkargah City.  In Nawa District, four Afghan National Army (ANA) soldiers were killed when they drove over a landmine.  Two soldiers wounded.

Herat Province: One ANA soldier and two civilians wounded when an army vehicle ran over a landmine.

Kunar Province:  An attorney for NDS was assassinated by remote detonated bomb, as he drove to work. His body guards were wounded.

Parwan Province: Near Bagram airbase, the Investigating Fates of Prisoners Committee confirms that out of 519 cases investigated so far at least 433 Afghans have been unjustly imprisoned in the Parwan Detention Center (aka Afghanistan GITMO) by the U.S. military.  That’s an extremely high rate of illegal detentions!  The Parwan Detention Center was only recently turned over to the Afghan government by the United States.   There were more than 3-thousand people trapped inside at the time of the turnover.  Afghan courts have been releasing those prisoners where the U.S. has failed to provide documentation accusing them of a crime. This begs the question; why did the U.S. military imprison them?

“Afghan National Security Forces carried out several cleanup raids in Nangarhar, Faryab, Kandahar, Uruzgan and Ghazni provinces within the last 24 hours. As a result 26 armed Taliban were killed, two wounded and seven others were arrested by the ANSF”-Afghan Interior Ministry statement

Remember all the hate rhetoric about Osama bin Laden being responsible for creating al Qaeda, and providing them safe haven in Afghanistan?  Turns out that was BS!  So now that Osama bin Laden is dead the actual person responsible for bringing al Qaeda to Afghanistan is now running for President!  Abu Sayyaf is so influential that even an al Qaeda rebel group in the Philippines named themselves after him.  Abu Sayyaf is considered the mentor to Khalid Sheikh Muhammad, the man accused of planning the 11 September 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center.  So why did the U.S. have to kill Osama, and why haven’t they gone after Abu Sayyaf?

Speaking of the NDS, investigators looked into the kidnapping of a female member of parliament (remember that one?) and now accuse the woman’s brother of orchestrating the kidnapping.  I was suspicious when the family repeatedly denied the woman had been kidnapped, even though nobody could explain where she was.

Reports that a former Afghan National Army soldier was arrested in Pakistan.  He’s wanted for killing three Australian Diggers. But get this, according to the Aussie government the guy was arrested back in February!  No explanation why they waited until now to report it.

Taxpayers from dozens of U.S. led NATO member countries are spending $200-million USD to teach Afghan soldiers how to read, this while NATO member countries slash and burn their own education funding!

The U.S. Special Inspector General for Afghan Reconstruction (SIGAR) is warning that a new program could waste another $1-billion in U.S. tax money.  The wise U.S. leaders are planning to give the Afghan National Police (ANP) unlimited U.S. tax dollars so the ANP can buy fuel, without oversight: “The ANP fuel program….remains at high risk of loss, theft, or misuse of U.S. funds and purchased fuel and, if not improved, may increasingly place large amounts of U.S. funds at risk of fraud, waste, and abuse.”-John Sopko, SIGAR

The Afghan Mines and Petroleum Ministry estimates that Afghanistan’s mineral resources, including oil, are worth about $1 trillion.  However, one analyst has a warning: “The sector, as a whole, is operating in a very uncontrolled way. There’s no oversight.”-Stephen Carter, Global Witness

In a now typical hypocritical move, the U.S. Senate passed a bill that would allow Iraqis who worked for the U.S. government to extend their visas.  This after the U.S. State Department began reneging on visas issued to Afghans who work for the U.S. government.

Tajikistan has allowed Russia to station more troops on their border with Afghanistan.  Also, Russia has promised to increase military weaponry to Tajikistan.  Russian and Tajik officials admit their military buildup is in preparation for the supposed 2014 U.S.-NATO pullout.  The renewed Russian-Tajik military pact is in effect until 2042!

Obama regime bold face liars: United Nations has proof U.S. regime killing civilians with drones! Violating international law! U.S. citizens “future” targets of drones!

“….if there are terrorists within an area where there are women and children, or others, we do not [stress added by speaker] take such action…In fact I can say…there hasn’t been a single collateral death because of the exceptional proficiency, precision of the capabilities that we’ve been able to develop.”-John O. Brennan, Obama regime adviser, during the question and answer session after his speech to Paul H. Nitze School of Advanced International Studies, 29 June 2011. The answer to the question is not on the official White house transcript but can be viewed about 49:30 minutes into C-SPAN video

“Zero innocent civilians having lost their lives does not sound to me like reality….”-USAF Colonel David M. Sullivan, commenting on Obama regime’s claims of no civilians killed in 2011

“America’s actions are legal.”-Barack Obama, May 2013 speech to National Defense University, he was repeatedly interrupted by people wanting to know why GITMO prison was still in operation

“The position of the Government of Pakistan is quite clear. It does not consent to the use of drones by the United States on its territory and it considers this to be a violation of Pakistan’s sovereignty and territorial integrity. As a matter of international law the U.S. drone campaign in Pakistan is…..a violation of Pakistan’s sovereignty…….”-The United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights, Statement of the Special Rapporteur following meetings in Pakistan, 19 October 2013

In May 2013, Barack Obama finally admitted that civilians were being killed by drones: “…it is a hard fact that U.S. strikes have resulted in civilian casualties…”

He also stated that he’s not the only one responsible: “….Not only did Congress authorize the use of force, it is briefed on every strike that America takes.  Every strike.”

In the same speech Obama also has these ominous warnings for the people of the United States: “From our use of drones to the detention of terrorist suspects, the decisions that we are making now will define the type of nation, and world, that we leave to our children.

We have to be mindful of James Madison’s warning that ‘No nation could preserve its freedom in the midst of continual warfare.’

….we face a real threat from radicalized individuals here in the United States…….Deranged or alienated individuals, often U.S. citizens or legal residents…..

This is the future of terrorism.”

In September 2013, the artist who created Obama’s Hope election campaign art, Shepard Fairey, admitted he has regrets.  TMZ paparazzi asked if there was something he could change, his reply was that he would replace the slogan Hope, with the slogan Drones!

Exceptional Failed State: Demolition Man prophecies coming true; U.S. Constitution to be changed to allow Arnold Schwarzenegger to run for U.S. President!

“Lenina Huxley: I have, in fact, perused some newsreels in the Schwarzenegger Library, and the time that you took that car… JohnSpartan: Hold it. The Schwarzenegger Library? Lenina Huxley: Yes. The Schwarzenegger Presidential Library. Wasn’t he an actor when you…? JohnSpartan: Stop! He was President? Lenina Huxley: Yes! Even though he was not born in this country, his popularity at the time caused the 61st Amendment which states...JohnSpartan: I don’t wanna know.”-Demolition Man, 1993

Not only did the movie Demolition Man correctly predict martial law in the United States, but it looks like it’s right about Arnold Schwarzenegger becoming President!

The New York Post is reporting that Schwarzenegger is lobbying U.S. congressman to change the Constitution to allow him to run for President in 2016!

I knew this was coming since 1987.  That’s when Men’s Fitness published an interview with Schwarzenegger, which hinted at his political plans because of his new marriage to the Kennedy family via Maria Shriver.

The article is titled Arnold Inc. Hollywood’s Big Tycoon.  Schwarzenegger says “I love this country, that’s why I became a citizen.”  He also stated “…Americans: They love anything exotic, anything foreign.  Lucky for me, eh?”

It was in the 1980s that Schwarzenegger made hit action movie after hit action movie.  Some of those movies were prophetic about the police state future of the United States, like Total Recall and Running Man (based on a Stephen King story).

It is possible to change the 14th Amendment of the Constitution, it is not part of the Bill of Rights.  But it can be considered a sign of a failed state when foreign born citizens attain national leadership positions.

Obama regime bold face liars: U.S. debt skyrockets by $328-billion despite what Obama said! You now owe $17-trillion!

“…raising the debt ceiling, which has been done over a hundred times, does not increase our debt…”-Barack Obama, September 2013

The government funding deal passed by the corrupt U.S. Congress and signed by the Obama regime, has resulted in an overnight skyrocket of U.S. taxpayer debt!

The U.S. Department of Treasury revealed today that the funding deal has increased U.S. debt by $328 billion USD.  Today, taxpayers now owe bond holders a record $17-trillion!!!

The largest holder of U.S. debt is the federal government, believe it or not.  What this means is that the federales have the taxpayers by the financial balls!  Which explains why they have no problem jacking up the debt limit, on you!

Financial Martial Law U.S.A.: BofA joins JP Morgan Chase in limiting access to your account! Citibank layoffs 1-thousand despite profits! Wells Fargo lays off 5-thousand plus!

“If you don’t have your money in your pocket it ain’t yours, Jack!”-Gerald Celente, investor and financial adviser who had his Certificates of Deposits raped by major banks, telling people to get their money out of the banks now!  Infowars interview 18 October 2013

Celente, who has a good forecasting track record, predicts total U.S. bank failure by the middle of 2014.

Wall Street Journal reported that despite reporting surprise profits, Bank of America is about to implement a plan that will affect their customer’s checking accounts and access to their cash through ATMs. There are very little details, but BofA officials claim they are trying to help out their customers because their plan would prevent customers from incurring overdraft fees!  Basically your check writing and ATM withdrawals will be limited (more than what it already is).

This is revenge on the part of BofA, who paid a $410 million USD fine for their part in a conspiracy by Too Big to Jail banks, found guilty of charging exorbitant fees.

Back in September, Citibank announced they were laying off 700 employees, before Xmas! It’s part of their larger plan to layoff 1-thousand people!  Just two days ago Citibank reported a $3.23 billion profit!  However, greedy elitist investment analysts called it “disappointing” because they were expecting even more profits!

Wells Fargo has notified 5300 employees they will be laid off! 925 of those jobs are in California!  Bank officials blame it on a 42% drop in home loans, compared to last year!  What was that about the housing market recovery?

Maybe Celente is right?

Exceptional Failed State: Too Big to Jail JP Morgan Chase denies yet confirms martial law on your bank account! Is it really because the bank is broke?

Martial Law U.S.A.: Homeland Security behind False Flag earthquake drill in Idaho? Real quake hits! International connection! Mystery power outages!

18 October 2013 (20:40 UTC-07 Tango 17 October 2013)/13 Dhu’l-Hijja 1434/26 Mehr 1391/14 Ren-Xu (9th month) 4711

The Gem State of Idaho held its largest earthquake drill ever.  Did you hear about it?  I live in the Gem State and it was news to me.

It’s called The Great Idaho ShakeOut.  It took place at 10:17 hours on 17 October 2013.  Coincidentally a 3.6 quake hit northern Utah, along the same fault line that runs through eastern Idaho on up to the supervolcano Yellowstone, at 10:19 hours!

It is true that most quakes in Idaho take place in the eastern part of the state.  But suddenly, almost out-o-the blue it’s a major concern of the government?

If you go to The Great Idaho ShakeOut website it looks like the “annual” drill is being pushed by state agencies, but the actual instigators are the U.S. Federal Emergency Management Agency  and the U.S. Department of Homeland Security.  They have drills for Idaho already planned for 2014 and 2015.  The website claims it was school officials who chose to hold the drill in the morning on a school day.

Local TV news reports showed kindergarteners being led out of school with their wrists tied to ropes!!!  The ShakeOut website stated that at 10:17 hours they wanted everybody in Idaho to stop what they were doing and “Drop, Cover, and Hold On [fetal position?]……and stay in this position for at least 60 seconds.“!

Reports claim between 70-thousand and 92-thousand Idahoans took part in the drill.  Small print on the website also says “You can hold your drill at any time within 2 weeks of October 17.”  Does this imply that if you conduct a quake drill outside that time period you could be arrested?

Turns out the Great ShakeOut drills are conducted all across the U.S. and even in other countries.  That’s right, FEMA and other federal agencies are conducting quake drills in Japan, Italy, New Zealand, Canada and “other countries”.   Your tax dollars at work.

At about 15:30 hours power was lost to a large area.  Idaho Power reported the outage affected the western half of the city of Chubbuck, west to the American Falls reservoir 23 miles away.  The cause was unknown.

Power came back on for me at 17:30 hours, but at 17:51 hours Idaho Power reported that power was still out in parts of Chubbuck, and they were sending crews back out to find out why.  Cause of outage still unknown.

By 20:00 hours Idaho Power reported “no outages”.  No explanation for the outage, and so far nothing mentioned by local news media.  Mmmm, on the same day as the FEMA sponsored earthquake drill.

Exceptional Failed State: Too Big to Jail JP Morgan Chase denies yet confirms martial law on your bank account! Is it really because the bank is broke?

17 October 2013 (14:17 UTC-07 Tango)/12 Dhu’l-Hijja 1434/25 Mehr 1391/13 Ren-Xu (9th month) 4711

Officials with JP Morgan Chase are denying they are imposing “capital controls” by blocking international money transfers and limiting the amount of money you can have in your account.  But they did confirm they are “derisking” certain accounts!

Could the Too Big to Jail international bank be doing this as a result of $1-billion USD in fines imposed by United States and United Kingdom?  That’s because of their $6-billion loss in the London Whale investment scheme.  Is JP Morgan Chase broke?

For more evidence that JP Morgan Chase is broke, Marketwatch is now calling it the biggest single job killer in the U.S.  The Too Big to Fail bank is laying off at least 19-thousand employees!

Some “exepctionism”!

Martial Law U.S.A.: TSA security is not targeting terrorists! Fake exemptions expanded for frequent flyers!

17 October 2013 (13:42 UTC-07 Tango)/12 Dhu’l-Hijja 1434/25 Mehr 1391/13 Ren-Xu (9th month) 4711

“If another 9/11 happens, you will not recognize this country.”-Andrew Jurchenko, retired U.S. Army Colonel, commenting on expanding TSA powers

Out of Arizona: “America’s Friendliest Airport” is now America’s Martial Law Airport.

The Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport has registered numerous complaints against gestapo Transportation Security Administration agents, complaints coming from people as old as 92 years who said they were humiliated and terrorized.  Apparently most of those targeted are disabled people with fake body parts.

TSA announced an expansion of their privileged Trusted Traveler Program, which supposedly allows club members to skip martial law searches!  The TTP is being expanded to 350 airports in 2014.

A civil rights activist warned that just because your a TTP member doesn’t mean Big Brother/Sister isn’t watching you: “If you sign up, you’ll want to keep your nose clean for the rest of your life. Because that’s how long the FBI will keep your fingerprints.”-Gregory Nojeim, Center for Democracy and Technology

Infowars/Prison Planet has discovered that Public Access to Court Electronic Records, PACER.gov, has federal court documents that reveale that the country has been and still is under martial law: “…as a result of an ‘order’ of the TSA and that Congress had stripped the district courts of jurisdiction…” 

The court documents show that the TSA has been taking baby steps to increased use of martial law prison tactics: “….in 2002, a limited pat-down procedure was in place for secondary screening. This procedure…..did not include any touching of the ‘sensitive areas’ of travelers……..In September 2004….the TSA modified the pat-down procedure to include touching the breasts of female travelers……in 2010, the TSA discontinued all use of hand-held metal detectors, for reasons that have never been explained.”

TSA uses full body pat downs as well as electromagnetic nude body scanners.  Documents show TSA employees continually violate their own rules of how full body pat downs are conducted. It is also pointed out that Germany refused to adopt the U.S. TSA nude body scanner system, due to 35% failure rate.  France refused due to high failure rate of system.

TSA had access to three other search systems, but capriciously choose the nude body scanners.  The TSA rejected the use of 95% effective, and far cheaper, bomb sniffing dogs!  The TSA is actually receiving taxpayer funding for bomb sniffing dogs!

The second rejected search device was the ETP machines, which detected chemicals that could be used for explosives, although the same chemicals can be found in sausages.   TSA discontinued the EPT use because of operational costs, not lack of effectiveness.  I can attest to the EPT effectiveness because sausages bought in Idaho and heading to California via the Pocatello Airport, popped up as bombs on the EPT.  Sausages contain nitrates, they were allowed to fly on to California.

TSA also has another chemical detector, ETD.  But court documents show they are considered secondary, backup systems, and are rarely used, even though they are effective and cheaper than both EPT and nude body scanners.

The documents point out that not once has the TSA caught a true terrorist.

Even TSA’s own documentation showed there is no justification to their martial law tactics: “….explosives brought on board airplanes…..happened outside of the United States…..even on the global scale, including Middle Eastern countries with extreme civil unrest and a high prevalence of improvised explosive devices….explosives on airplanes are extremely rare……the TSA analyzed hijackings in 2007, and found 7 hijacking incidents across the globe, but none of them involved actual explosive devices.”

The court documents then point out “The hijackers on 9/11 had no explosives; only knives………This begs the question, then, of what evidence the government possesses to rationalize that we should be so afraid of non-metallic explosives being brought aboard flights departing from the U.S. that we must sacrifice our civil liberties. The answer: there is none.”

The only conclusion we can come to is that the dictatorial elites of the United States used the threat of terrorism as a False Flag to impose martial law and turn you into slaves!

You need to read the entire court document, because there is way more than what I’ve posted.
