Fukushima and 9/11
3/11/11 Meets the Events of September 11, 2001
by Anthony J. Hall, Professor of Globalization Studies at the University of Lethbridge
Two Ground Zeroes
There are now two ground zeroes marking the most prominent features of the twenty-first century’s geopolitical landscape. The first ground zero is, of course, the site of the three pulverized World Trade Center Buildings. All of these WTC monuments to the commercial power of the once-mighty American Empire were brought down to earth through controlled demolitions executed on a massive and unprecedented scale. The lies and crimes of 9/11 opened the way for the 9/11 Wars, aggressions that have visited on many branches of the human family the multiple evils of genocide, mass displacements, illegal torture and the increasingly deep incursions of the global police state.
The second ground zero erupted on 3/11/11, March 11 2011, on the island nation of Japan. So far Fukushima Nuclear Power Station #1 seems to lie at the core of the ongoing catastrophe engendered by a combination of almost unimaginable l
evels of human-created risk converging fatally with the Sendai earthquake and tsunami. At this stage, however, there is no way of knowing for sure what other ticking time bombs of uncontained radioactivity might be counting down towards criticality in a country known for the propensity of its elites to obfuscate inconvenient truths.
What trust can we place in the filtered reports we have been receiving from a polity hosting such a dense and many-faceted array of nuclear installations? Some of these facilities in Japan no doubt host top-secret experiments and operations of the kind that have been hallmarks of the nuclear industry ever since the Second World War when Fat Man and Little Boy were concocted by the Manhatten Project’s bomb-making wizards.[i] The scientists and engineers employed by the US government’s Manhatten Project gave birth to the era of Nuclear Russian Roulette that began in 1945 and continues to this day.
Before the gun-to-the-head went off for the third time in recorded history at Fukushima, the people of Hiroshima and Nagasaki were subjected to mass murder, terrible sicknesses and unending generations of deformed offspring. They were subjected to very quick jolts of the very same plagues that are spreading throughout the world from the new nuclear holocaust whose ground zero is the Fukushima Nuclear Power Station #1.
The pace of the movement of the silent nuclear plague makes its impact less-immediately-obvious than the bomb blasts of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, but this time the scale of the nuking of civilians is many orders of magnitude higher than the atomic holocausts of 1945. By calculating the massive accumulations of fissionable materials piled up strategically to fuel for years and decades to come the uncontrolled and voracious nuclear fires currently ablaze at Fukushima, Bob Nicols has calculated in Veterans Today that we are looking at a slow-motion catastrophe. According to Nicols, it contains the potential to deliver on humanity radioactive contamination equivalent to that created by 2,000 500 kiloton atomic bombs. A 500kt bomb, Nicols notes, is 33 times more powerful than the atomic device dropped on Hiroshima.
Nicols unforgettably observes, “it is as if the entire world is At War! The dreaded all-out nuclear war that would happen if Russia or the United Stated accidentally “Pressed The Button” is going on right now; it is a done deal. Imagine that! The same thing as detonating 2,000 big Atomic Bombs and not even one BOOM! Not a shot fired… No giant forest fires, no burning cities creating their own hellish, uncompromising firestorms. None of that; but, every bit of the radioactive contamination such an Atomic World War would create; and probably more. For unbelievably, there are more Japanese reactors about to blow. It’s a chain reaction.”[ii]
The Lies and Crimes of Fukushima and 9/11
The continuities and discontinuities animating the mass media’s depiction of 9/11 and the Fukushima catastrophe are striking. In the days following 9/11, pictures of the exploding Twin Towers were repeated again and again on TV. The effect was to deepen the traumatizing psychological impact on populations being prepared to fund, staff and back the illegal US invasions and occupations of Eurasia. Where the images of the exploding Twin Towers in New York were drilled into public consciousness especially by media venues owned by military companies such as Westinghouse and GE, there were very few TV replays of the videos recording the controlled demolition of WTC 7. This forty-seven storey, steel-frame tower fell to the ground in seven seconds through the course of maximum resistance. WTC 7 came down at 5:20 pm, several minutes after the propagandists at the BBC had already announced, live on-air, the destruction of the doomed building. Somebody in the 9/11 spin doctoring unit appears to have pressed the “send” button a few moments too early.[iii]
The images documenting the classic controlled demolition that brought down WTC 7 neatly into its own footprint have been aggressively suppressed by the mainstream media. A good example of the censorship was provided in November of 2005 by MSNBC, a subsidiary of the media cartel that for much of its career was owned by GE. As I explain in considerable detail in my article, “From Hiroshima to Fukushima, 1945-2011,” GE has been from the inception of the nuclear industry a major manufacturer of nuclear weapons. It is also the company that designed and manufactured three of the reactors in various stages of meltdown at Fukushima #1.[iv]
In preparation for his appearance on MSNBC’s “The Situation with Tucker Carlson,” Dr. Steven Jones forwarded the show’s producers a video of the seven-second collapse of Building 7. Steven Jones was then a senior professor of physics at Utah’s Brigham Young University and the author of the seminal scholarly paper, “Why Indeed Did the WTC Buildings Collapse?” In spite of Professor Jones repeated on-air requests to Carlson to run the tape of the controlled demolition of Building 7, the relevant images were not televised.[v] Thus the pictures that Danish Chemistry Professor Niels Harrit and many others have described as “the smoking gun of 9/11” were held back from entry into broad public consciousness.[vi] To this day many consumers of the media conglomerates’ toxic mind food remain unaware that three, not two, WTC towers fell to the ground on 9/11. WTC 7 was not hit by any airplane.
Like the infrequently televised images of Building 7 falling to the ground, the images of the exploding reactor sheds at Fukushima #1 were quickly relegated to obscurity by the mainstream media. The aim was clearly to disappear the violent explosions at Fukushima down the same memory hole of public ignorance and amnesia surrounding the collapse of Building 7. The goal was and remains to help mislead the public towards the view that the main dangers of the ongoing nuclear crisis at Fukushima were relegated to the past during the first few weeks of the continuing debacle. Nothing could be further from the truth.
Hiding and Displaying Images of Exploding Buildings
While the scale of the catastrophe continues to grow day by day, it similarly becomes more evident with each passing news cycle that the notoriously corrupt company, TEPCO, is completely unequal to the task of bringing this global public health catastrophe under control. In an article entitled “Time for the Rich to Leave Tokyo,” a reference to the slogan on a placard carried in a recent anti-nuke demonstration in Japan, Richard Wilcox points to the gross incoherence of a proposed remedy for the enormous ongoing releases of radionuclides from the ailing nuclear power station.
Wilcox writes, “Any intelligent layperson who considers the technical aspects of the disaster will be at a loss as to how the plant operators will be able to restore the cooling system, which may be badly damaged, to reactors that themselves may be unrepairable or in various states of melt-down. If the nuclear fuel in the reactors has melted through to the floor, what would be the point of setting up a cooling system to a dysfunctional reactor and a pool of melted fuel? No one in the government clearly answers these questions nor has the international community come forth with a possible solution.[vii]
As TEPCO trifles with the lives of the 120 million citizens inhabiting Honshu Island, it is becoming increasingly clear that the seriousness of this crisis extends far beyond the understanding and competence of the enfeebled Japanese government. The disparity between the magnitude of the catastrophe and the limited capacities of Japan’s instruments of state illustrate graphically the extent to which the Japanese government has been rendered almost completely subordinate to the corporate feudalism cultivated by imperial Washington during the Cold War. So monumental are the lethal consequences of this massive and unprecedented event that the stupendous failure of the international response to the global catastrophe is becoming a crime of omission that, measured along a scale of preventable deaths, is fast becoming comparable to the crimes of commission committed, say, at Auschwitz or in Rwanda.
Accordingly, the infrequently televised pictures of the exploding containment structures at Fukushima, but especially shed #3, will continue to impose dire ramifications on humanity probably every bit as serious as those that continue to unfold from the geopolitical outgrowths of the exploding Twin Towers. When containment structure #3 burst high into the atmosphere it threw up into the air a whole storage pond packed tight with spent nuclear fuel rods, including plutonium-laced assemblies now scattered to Kingdom Come. Plutonium is the most lethal substance known to science. As this pulverized plutonium penetrates all levels of the food chain it will, as surely as night follows day, induce epidemics of cancer in host organisms including human beings.
The prototype of the GE Mark 1 reactors melting down at Fukushima # 1 was developed in the early 1950s to power nuclear submarines. This history explains the placement of the spent fuel rods on top of the reactor mechanisms. While this design made sense in the confined spaces of a submarine it poses unnecessary danger for land-based nuclear power plants
As I explain in “From Hiroshima to Fukushima, 1945-2011,” the locating of the pools for spent nuclear fuel rods ON TOP of the Mark 1 reactors designed by GE goes back to the manufacturing in the early 1950s of the first nuclear submarines. The confined structure of nuclear submarines required Admiral Hyman G. Rickover and his team of pioneering nuclear engineers to juxtapose tightly the various mechanisms involved in the most dangerous industrial processes known to humanity.[viii]
What defense can there be, however, for projecting a design drawn from nuclear submarines in the 1950s to the operations of a system that since 2010 has been fuelled by plutonium-bearing MOX rods? What defense can there be for extending to the corporate designers and operators of this nightmare of professional malfeasance at Fukushima the government gift of limited liability now on full public display for those attentive enough to cut through the spin, censorship, and diversions of the mainstream media? This class of media spin doctors passing themselves off as professional journalists includes many on the staffs of not only at the for-profit info-entertainment cartels. It also includes many on the pay rolls of those Crown corporations that peddle government and corporate agendas in, for instance, Great Britain, Canada, and Australia.
Reporting and Spin Doctoring on the Fukushima Debacle
The corporate criminals and welfare bums behind the Fukishima catastrophe include GE, Westinghouse, Hitachi, Toshiba, AREVA, Nippon Television Network and TEPCO? Similarly many officials of the International Atomic Energy Agency and the World Health Organization must be held accountable for allowing themselves to become instruments and extensions of the nuclear energy industry’s imperial ambitions.[ix] What information about this crisis is being withheld by the US Armed Forces, whose operatives have access to the many elaborate monitoring devices in space, on land and in the ocean’s underwater recesses. The information from this elaborate system of nuclear spy gear must be providing a detailed picture of the global effects of the Fukushima catastrophe, one producing continuing releases of massive quantities, together with wide arrays, of lethal radionucludes into air, ocean, stream and soil?[x]
The US Armed Forces is probably the only agency on the planet with the infrastructure, trained personnel and expertise to have any chance of bringing this global catastrophe under control. What will be the short and long-term implications for President Barack Obama if he continues to deprive humanity of the deployment of US troops, some of whom are specifically trained and equipped to deal with worsening cycles of nuclear malfunction and high levels of radioactive contamination? Does President Obama possess the inner fortitude to rise above his pitiful captivity as a well-rewarded lobbyist for the overlapping functions of the military and energy divisions of the nuclear industry? [xi] Without international intervention adequate to the task, the lies and crimes of Fukushima portend much more of the same in the future.
Just as the mainstream media was flooded after the events of 9/11 with pseudo-experts flogging the Global War on Terror as the necessary antidote for the all-purpose boogey man of al-Qaeda, so we are witnessing a similar phenomenon as the nuclear energy industry trots out on television and in print its well-paid stables of professional shills to reassure the public it has little to fear; that everything is returning to normal. But in the era of the Internet this tactic of deception can be countered. As in the early days of the 9/11 Truth Movement, Alex Jones transcended his sometimes-bombastic style of American chauvinism to develop cutting-edge analysis and interpretation of the Fukushima debacle.
One of the first guests of Alex Jones to speak to the nature of the Fukushima crisis was the BBC pundit Greg Palast. Palast is an American journalist given wide access to audiences on the BBC and in the Guardian newspaper in Great Britain. In an earlier incarnation Palast was, in his own words, “an investigator for the government on nuclear racketeering and fraud.” Palast explained how the fear of those genuinely responsible for the Fukushima mess seek to low ball estimations of the damage being created in the hope of averting legal liability and/or criminal culpability. Palast explained, moreover, how he was being passed over by the mainstream media as a commentator on the disaster in spite of his insider’s knowledge of the nuclear power industry. Noting the broad and pervasive cover-up underway and the epidemic of cancers to come, Palast detailed how the initial reports of the Fukushima disaster as being less than Chernobyl but greater than Three Mile Island amounted to “completely nuts propaganda.”[xii]
Another veteran of the 9/11 infowars, Kevin Barrett, interviewed me on his regular radio show shortly after I released my initial long article and then my shorter follow-up piece entitled, “Racism, Cover-Up and Corporate Fraud in the Fukushima Nuclear Catastrophe.”[xiii] A pioneering academic investigator in the quest for 9/11 truth, Barrett was purged from his job as a university teacher by some enemies of academic freedom at the University of Wisconsin.
As with the lies and crimes of 9/11, venues of citizens’ investigation on the Internet have been providing alternative flows of news and views on the true nature of the second ground zero of the twenty-first century.[xiv] Prominent among those independent experts that refuse to tow the party line on the disaster are nuclear radiation expert Professor Christopher Busby,[xv] theoretical physicist Professor Michio Kaku,[xvi] as well as the controversial Australian physician, author and anti-nuke activist, Dr Helen Caldicott.[xvii] These three experts in their fields have earned their status as key individuals whose analysis deserves to be considered near the core of the necessary global debate on the nature of the changes that must take place in light of what we are learning about the Fukushima disaster.
Taking Note of the Discussions on the Fringes of Debate
Still on the fringes of the discussion are those with unproved theories that the Fukushima disaster was deliberately created to serve the interests of various configurations of power. One theory holds that the nuclear meltdowns are part of a contrived program of eugenic transformation to be carried out through massive depopulation. Another group is advancing the case that the Sendai earthquake and tsunami were purposely triggered by a rogue unit of the US military. Those exploring this possibility contend that a nuclear bomb was detonated on the floor of the Pacific with the goal of opening the way for dramatic changes in the geopolitical balance of power in one of the world’s most strategically-volatile regions.
Inevitably we shall see more and more questions concerning the relationship between earthquakes and experiments with electro-magnetic fields by top-secret branches of the US government through a controversial project known as HAARP.[xviii] Yet another line of analysis concerns the effects on nuclear installations around the world, including in Japan, of an Israeli system of cyber attacks known as Stuxnet. This Stuxnet system is said to have been developed initially to disrupt the software running parts of the Iranian nuclear energy program.
While this kind of investigation still belongs on the margins of debate about what is really going on, almost nothing in these times of Peak Oil can be completely ruled out as a possible expedient of elite grabs for riches and domination of people, profits and natural resources. It will no longer do simply to extend automatically to those that conduct their business at the pinnacles of worldly wealth and authority the benefit of the doubt in every instance of real or imagined criminality. In light of the massive and ongoing cover-up surrounding the events of 9/11, Wall Street’s continuing frauds and swindles swirling in and around the financial bailouts, as well as the ongoing environmental disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, we have no cause for complacency that those who commit the highest order of international crime will be held accountable for their actions.
9/11 and Fukushima in the Growth of
the Tahrir Square Global Freedom Movement
The increasingly transnational unwillingness to accept any longer the transgressions of unaccountable power brokers in, for instance, the lies and crimes of both Fukushima and 9/11 are part of what I call the Tahrir Square Global Freedom Movement. In an article in Veterans Today Allen A. Roland tries to capture the essence of this uprising as part of what he describes as “ a class war between the People and the Corpocracy.” Roland postulates that “the epicenter of the Middle East people’s revolt is the ongoing oppression of the Palestinian people by Israel, which is a constant and humiliating reminder to the Arab world that they are servants of a global elite who maintain their oppressive regimes through military power and economic control.”
Roland then moves his focus to the anti-authoritarian upsurge in his own continent. He argues that “the epicenter of the blossoming people’s revolt in the United States is the 9/11 conspiracy where Dick Cheney created a shadow government committed to corporate welfare and beholden to the global elite. That is when the Republic began its death throes and the corpocracy emerged from the Twin Towers’ ashes—where it controlled and still does control the masses through fear, demonizing and fabrications with the ultimate big lie being the 9/11 cover up story.”[xix]
See the movie Earth into Property: An Exploration of Colonization, Decolonization and Capitalism.
For me Roland’s contention rings true that different interpretations about the contested meanings of 9/11 lie near the heart of a simmering class war. From my own experience in the academy and as an author and media pundit, I can observe that so far it is far more expedient for aspiring journalists, professors, politicians and business executives to adopt the official line on 9/11. As Professor Niels Harrit proclaimed in my discussion with him and his wife, Pernille Grumme, in Edmonton Alberta, it is a “bad career move” to show professional interest in the contested interpretations of 9/11.[xx]
While actual elites together with wanabee elites continue to do business based on the largely unconsidered assumption that the Islamic zealots of al-Qaeda embody the world’s most menacing problem, millions upon millions of more sensible folk have come to the correct conclusion that we have been fed a pack of lies to justify the privatized profiteering of the fraudulent Global War on Terror. This understanding has reached critical mass and cannot be turned back however zealous the attempts of Cass Sunstein’s team of cyber warriors to infiltrate and subvert the social networking media of the huge and many-faceted 9/11 Truth Movement. After proposing that the so-called “truthers” should be made targets of the same sort of tactics directed at those on J. Edgar Hoover’s enemies list in his oversight of the FBI’s covert COINTELPRO operations, Sunstein was elevated to the job of President Obama’s chief agent of [Dis]information and [De]regulatory Affairs.[xxi]
As we can see every day, the sycophants that tend to fill the most important jobs in the mainstream media continue to interpret daily events based on the increasingly ridiculous notion which starts with the unproven contention that Osama bin Laden and an independent band of ruthless Islamic terrorists single-handedly changed the world on 9/11 with their flash attacks on an innocent and unsuspecting enemy. While this thoroughly discredited interpretation continues to hold sway as a kind of sacred myth that must be maintained as an idol of US patriotism and pro-Israeli versions of militarized Judeo-Christian supremacy, there are very few public intellectuals willing to defend the official-sanctioned conspiracy theory in its details. Moreover, those that do so are clearly second-rate thinkers incapable of moving beyond the function of paid propagandists.
Only the likes of Jonathan Kay and Michael Shermer will put themselves on the line in defense of an unsubstantiated view of history promoted with various dribs and drabs of psychobabble condemning as mentally ill those who deviate from their own adherence to the lies and crimes of 9/11.
The whole problem of maintaining a basis for the public mythology of 9/11 is now rendered even more tenuous by the lies and crimes of Fukushima. It will require enormous continuing efforts of disinformation, diversion and censorship to hide the fact the ongoing crisis at Fukushima exposes the real extent of the excessive deregulation and disempowerment of public government. This Reaganesque excess of dereglation and privatization extending even to the potential death machines of nuclear power plants has stripped us all of even the most rudimentary forms of security in the essentials of life derived from clean food, clean air and clean water. What is to be said of initiatives in so-called national security that deprive world citizens of global security in public health?
With crisis also comes opportunity. Perhaps the grotesque monstrosity of even deregulated and privatized nuclear power plants, whose terrible implications are now on full public display at Fukushima, will be sufficient to mobilize and further internationalize public resistance to the corpocracy that rules us. Perhaps the lies and crimes of both Fukushima and 9/11 will be exposed in a fashion that lends added energy, integrity and verve to the expanding forces of the Tahrir Square Global Freedom Movement.

I am both a 9/11 truther and an opponent of nuclear power based on the uranium fuel cycle. The first reservation that I have with your article is “…this kind of investigation still belongs on the margins of debate about what is really going on…” I have read reports that the Stuxnet worm was found in the wild in computers in Japan in October, 2010 and that the HAARP Web site was shut down about three weeks ago. I hope that you will follow through your investigation by researching these “fringe” (your word) issues.
The second reservation has to do with “resistance” — again, your word. A person can “resist” the TSA by deciding to boycott flying. If you don’t fly, then you won’t get groped or irradiated.
How, though, is one to “resist” the existence of nuclear power plants? Yes, one can demonstrate, one can write letters to the editor and members of Congress, one can start a blog. Regardless of any actions that an individual or a group chooses to take, the power plants will remain in place.
Opponents of nuclear power plants will be ignored, ridiculed, slandered and assassinated. We cannot defuse the nuclear time bomb.
I see the professor has mentioned that shill Alex Jones. Around here we know who that weasel works for. He’s no hero of truth. Just the opposite. He is tasked with steering the truth movement away from the truth.

wasn’t replying Bob, just happened :>)
BOB LOBLAW Jr…WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY … AROUND HERE ? WHERE ? AT THE NSA ? OR CIA DISINFORMATION SECTION…OR FOX NEWS MINISTRY OF TRUTH ?
THERE IS ALWAYS A SKUNK SCREAMING: LIES LIES LIES ASSOCIATED TO ALEX JONES BUT WHEN ASKED WHO IS THEIR “HERO OF TRUTH” ? AND WHO ACTUALLY HAS IT ?
BIG SILENCE….SO PLEASE NAME YOUR “HERO OF TRUTH” : OBAMA ? MIT RODNEY ? SARAH PALIN ? OUR GOVERNMENT ? WHO, IN THE “TRUTH MOVEMENT” HAS THE “TRUTH” ? JUST FOR THE LAUGH NAME THE MAN ! (OR WOMAN)
THE LAST TIME ALEX JONES WAS IN NEW YORK, I SAW HIM SCREAMING FOR HOURS IN FRONT OF THE COUNCIL OF FOREIGN RELATION, CFR (CORNER OF 68TH STREET AND PARK AVENUE) :
9/11 WAS AN INSIDE JOB, DICK CHENEY, WAR CRIMINAL ! (BIG LIES RIGHT ?)
A FEW DAYS AFTER THE 9/11 HE SHOWED BUILDING SEVEN VIDEO “SUSPECTING” A CONTROL DEMOLITION ( ANOTHER BIG LIE ?) IT IS ALSO VERY EASY TO FIND ON HIS WEBSITE HIS POSITION (VERY CRITICAL) ON ISRAEL POLICIES TOWARD PALESTINE,(ANOTHER LIE RIGHT ?) YOU CAN ALSO FIND DOCUMENTS ON JFK ASSASSINATION WHICH DO NOT SUPPORT THE “OFFICIAL VERSION” AND ALSO DECLASSIFIED DOCUMENTS SHOWING THAT THE GOLF OF TONKIN ATTACK WAS BOGUS….
HE ALSO SHOWED HAARP, RX 84 CONCENTRATION CAMPS PROGRAM,
NOW IF YOU BELIEVE THE GOVERNMENT “OFFICIAL VERSION” OF THESE EVENTS THEN YES YOU CAN SAY ALEX JONES IS THE ENEMY OF TRUTH…BUT COULD YOU TAKE THE TIME TO GOOGLE THE FOLLOWING : RX 84, HAARP, MICROWAVE HEARING, SADM (Special Atomic Demolition Munition) ….JUST TO CHECK IF ALEX JONES MADE THIS UP AND LIE ABOUT IT….
NOBODY KNOWS ALL THE TRUTH… ALEX JONES IS NO EXCEPTION… YOU HAVE THE RIGHT TO YOUR OWN OPINION BUT YOU CAN CHANGE DOCUMENTED FACTS…

“We cannot defuse the nuclear time bomb.”
A defeatist resigned attitude will ensure absolute victory for the so called money power elite. I am yet to hear the fat lady sing.
Clearly the nuclear industry should be gradually wound down and plants decommisioned when they reach the end of their unnatural lifetimes. We then face the choice of using less power or finding alternatives. Both are feasable options. Any N-plants that pose an imediate danger should be shut down forthwith. Fukashima has proven the case that the cost of the nuclear electricty produced far exceeds the stated figures and the real costs when one includes the damage caused by accidents are incalculabe and not just in monetary terms.
As a horrible amoral compromise to defuse the opposition of the nuclear profit establishment.
Why not give those poor suffering corporations that have caused these problems the lucrative task of cleaning up their mess and managing the waste until the end of eternity. If the financial inicentives equate to the same net gains why would a profit centered amoral orgnaisation care how that profit is attained. We all still end up paying them but our risks are thus reduced.
I was hoping that Fukushima would be a wake up call and the elites would end these wars of imperialism.I think they are so consumed with their grand plan that nothing will deter them from this course of insanity.
They are like the pedophile, who thrives on the fear of being caught.We see this in 911 when they purposefully expose themslves and are still confident of escaping justice.Perversion is driving their insatiable power lust,which they can no longer control.
See Something Say Something Act Seeks To Turn USA Into East Germany
By Lee Rogers
http://www.roguegovernment.com/See_Something_Say_Something_Act_Seeks_To_Turn_USA_Into_East_Germany/25587/0/13/13/Y/M.html
The clowns in Congress continue to promote the fake terror war despite the fact that the official story of the 9/11 attacks is a total lie, and the entire war against terror is based off of an entirely false pretext. It is also highly unlikely that any American will end up dead as a result of a terrorist attack but the promotion of fear continues. Americans are more likely to die from disease, a car accident or any number of other circumstances than they are from a terrorist attack. Despite all of this, we continue to see members of Congress propose bills that seek to destroy individual freedom under the guise of fighting this completely bogus terror war. A new bill proposed by Representative Peter King (R-NY) called the See Something Say Something Act seeks to encourage Americans to spy and report information on their neighbors by ensuring that those who make such reports would be immune from lawsuits. Even if the reported claims prove to be entirely false, the accused would be unable to take action against the accuser so long as it is believed that the accusations were made in good faith and with reasonable suspicion. This means that the true purpose of this bill is only to encourage people to be more willing to spy on and report information on their neighbors to the authorities.
From the bill:
`(1) IN GENERAL- Any person who, in good faith and based on objectively reasonable suspicion, makes, or causes to be made, a voluntary report of covered activity to an authorized official shall be immune from civil liability under Federal, State, and local law for such report.
This vaguely worded statement would allow the government broad latitude to determine what reasonable suspicion and good faith actually is. It also provides the accuser immunity from any civil action the accused could take against them even if their allegations prove to be false.
Also from the bill describing the term “covered activity”:
The term `covered activity’ means any suspicious transaction, activity, or occurrence indicating that an individual may be engaging, or preparing to engage, in a violation of law relating to an act of terrorism (as that term is defined in section 3077 of title 18, United States Code).’.
In U.S. Code an act of terrorism is vaguely described and even a misdamenor offense could be potentially considered a terrorist act. The definition of domestic terrorism which originated from the controversial USA Patriot Act is stated below.
(5) the term “domestic terrorism” means activities that—
(A) involve acts dangerous to human life that are a violation of the criminal laws of the United States or of any State;
(B) appear to be intended—
(i) to intimidate or coerce a civilian population;
(ii) to influence the policy of a government by intimidation or coercion; or
(iii) to affect the conduct of a government by mass destruction, assassination, or kidnapping; and
(C) occur primarily within the territorial jurisdiction of the United States.
This vague wording of this definition could theoretically apply to activities arranged by any number of protest groups or political organizations a point of which even the ACLU has stated. Although the ACLU is likely a controlled opposition front, they are correct on this point as they explain in their analysis of the USA Patriot Act.

If we answer why discussing 911 truth could be a “bad career move” in Edmonton Alberta we get answers.
The professor gets too caught up in technology.
Fact is the problem is EVERYWHERE, the control mechanism for a New York bombing is in Canada. For a British royal wedding in New York. For George Soros color revolution in Egypt. And etc.
Fuel rods and collapsed building footprints is NOT the problem. A professor out in western Canada saying SHUSH to facts from anywhere is the problem.
[...] Fukushima and 9/11 : Veterans Today [...]
I was accused of being “defeatist.”
People are ignorant (used in the literal, not the pejorative sense) of the fact that nuclear power is a complex — and profitable — system. Nuclear power plants are merely a part of this system.
Uranium ore is mined and then refined into “yellowcake.” Then a series of chemical processes converts the yellowcake into uranium hexafluoride gas. Then, either by centifuging or gaseous diffusion, the uranium is “enriched.”
The fissionable isotope of uranium — U-235 — is only about .7% of uranium. Enrichment increases this percentage to 3-5% for nuclear power plants or 90% for nuclear weapons. Enrichment requires massive amounts of electricity.
Then the enriched uranium hexafluoride gas is converted into uranium, which is formed into pellets and placed into zirconium rods — the fuel rods that are inserted into nuclear reactors.
Moreover, the uranium hexafluoride gas left over from the enrichment is converted into uranium. This is the so-called “depleted” uranium used in depleted uranium weapons. Although most of the U-235 has been removed, and thus it consists mostly of U-238, U-238 is radioactive. It is only depleted of the one radioactive isotope.
What I’m getting at here is that nuclear power plants do not exist in isolation. When we oppose nuclear power plants, we threaten the entire uranium fuel cycle industrial system. We threaten corporate profits.
History teaches that people do not relinquish power voluntarily. The people are no match for the power of the total corporate state.
It seems to me a strategy. In the cases of Japan, the attack on Libya and the Gulf, each degrade the lives of millions nearby, and the country’s economy.. In addition, the attack on Iraq, seriously degraded the economy and infrastructure, this is also true in Afghanistan, and the attack on Lebanon in 2006.
If you consider that Abrams told Pakistan they would bomb them back to the “stone Age” if they did not cooperate, it begins to make sense. Those countries that remain out of the destruction, like ISRAEL, will have a leg-up on those countries it competes with, from now on. Make sense?
This is no accident. Combine this with control of the Banking Cartel, the IMF and World Bank. Where are these countries going to go for credit to rebuild.
Just look at Ireland, in debt, in trouble, and just so happens to have large reserves off-shore now, to pledge for collateral. IT IS BY DESIGN.
interesting analogy
Yes, 9/11 is a crisis point that was probably planned before President Reagan. But it was under president Reagan’s executive orders that the infrastructure of not only the telecommunications takeover that happened within minutes of the first building imploding, but also the subsequent infernational banking system cooperation of confiscating or freezing funds of organizations, countries, and people without any due process! All in the name of fighting terror! Post 9/11 style. Also the blatant and out in the open use of telecommunications for homeland spying,intimidation and control of spin on breaking information. Within these executive orders was a planned takeover of the nuclear infrastructure. That is why these E.Os held special significance for me. I am a dyed in the wool nuclear and biowarfare non-participant. Somehow just not participating seemed too little considering the challenge. Sometimes it required me to quit, as at Yale where my research in cancer was tied to the military objective of finding cures for diseases after nuclear war disabled survivors’ immune systems. At other times I earned so little from non-compromising jobs that it was easy to do tax resistance, and at other times I publically refused to pay. When tax resistance and nn-partociaption seemed most ineffective agaiinst nuclear power I did rate resistance so I could live with myself and still run a frig in the city. I did conserve so much that the utility accused me of stealing! But it was they who were stealing my children’s future, ithrough nuclear pollution and through undemocratic control of the economy. I assumed the nuclear industry was being complicite with the EO and that they were not duped by Shippingport but co-conspirators against the public iinterest., and since laser separation of the plutonium from the waste had become possible I refused to pay that portion that went to making nuclear waste, the ore fro shich we get plutonium for bombs…soething I could not support in any way shape or form. Several days before 9/11 I was sent an email from BIll Smirnow forwarding a copy of the 9/17 newstand issue of Newsweek that he had received from a manager of Northeast Utilities. Bill suggested we make the nukes safe from terrorism by letting the military take control! My response he posted, and it might still be available online. If so will post link here. Bushes ratings were extremely low and the information in the article was sufficient for any crazed person to follow up n to cause megadamage to NYC or any town USA. I knew that such an article had to have been cleared to be printed. Why can’t BUsh wqait for the inevitable accident from the decay of materials in radioactive environments or from morale decay to call in an accident to enforce the executive branch takeover of government. He probably couldnt wait as his rating were far too low! And he couldnt wait to sway congress but used Anthrax to move them on. I do have a problem in that I cannot let illogical event pass by with a shrug. And I can be like a pitbull when I take hold of something and will not let go until I am satisfied that I know as much of the truth as my window of perception can allow

The HAARP/Stuxnet Fukushima disaster, for the Israelis, will the be the gift, the ultimate distraction, that will keep on giving: http://news.smh.com.au/breaking-news-technology/us-israel-behind-stuxnet-virus-iran-officer-20110416-1dj2v.html
1. It will change the calculus and timeline for “Israel’s demise”, pre-empting the growing global chorus of Israel critics, many of whom will be scrambling to just survive: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samson_Option
2. It certainly taught the Japanese a lesson that will not be able to “go it alone” in regards to the NWO (Zionist controlled central banking) per Benjamin Fulford. The Japanese culture now faces annihilation. http://www.presstv.ir/detail/173543.html
3. The growing anti-nuke sentiment arising from the Fukushima disaster will only work in Israel’s favor, as it continues to hide its burgeoning nuclear arsenal.
4. The coming population crash due to induced environmental and economic factors (Gulf of Mexico oil spill, Fukushima, food hyper-inflation, coming New Madrid disaster?) will reverse Israel’s growing demographic marginalization due to the world’s burgeoning population.
5. Reviewing global air mass circulation looks to leave Israeli’s sphere of influence, Asia Minor, relatively unscathed by the radiation plume now covering the northern hemisphere (US, western Europe, Russia, China):
http://img101.imageshack.us/img101/5834/pnacplanwo7.jpg
Due to the environmental disasters mentioned, the “livable” world will shrink to Asia Minor, the middle east, and central asia, and parts of south America. As a result, Israel will emerge as the major world power (thanks to US subsidies), as the rest of the world struggles merely to survive. Israel has built its own system of underground bunkers in the Negev desert.
6. Israel’s host and erstwhile ally, the United States, is disintegrating due to the Fukushima disaster, Gulf of Mexico oil spill, disastrous economic policies pursued in the wake of the so-called 911 attacks (inside job). For Israel, who looks upon the dominate US Christian theology as anathema to Judaism (Jews are blamed by many for killing Jesus), a collapsed US would remove an eventual and persistent existential threat. The Japanese financial implosion will accelerate the US financial debacle. http://revolutionarypolitics.tv/video/viewVideo.php?video_id=14614

Hello Anthony and friends,
I have not actually read Anthony’s article yet but will lickety split! I just wanted to post immediately this important info below. Thanks in advance and thanks to Anthony for his amazing scholarship:
Rw in Japan
For updates please follow this blog, run by my friend Tony in Ibaraki, and I have sent him many of the links he posts. His
excellent analysis is also there on a number of nuke related issues.
http://candobetter.net/node/2428
This is going to sound like scare mongering, but I HATE scare mongering and am hoping for the best.
Incredible, this website is the first one I have found (thanks to Tony) which is in both Japanese/English.
http://ex-skf.blogspot.com/
For example, we learn the situation at Fukushima is incredibly more serious than reported in the even slightly critically minded Japanese media
(Japan Times; Mainich). And that the Hamaoka shutdown was due to US pressure. People who really know the situation must know some really
freaky stuff that the rest of us do not (but can easily imagine if we dare), that is not very pleasant to consider.
The site it provides Japanese and English translation.

#Fukushima I Nuke Plant: Japan Nuclear Technology Institute Senior Advisor Says “Reactors 1, 2, 3 All Had Complete Meltdown”
(UPDATED with the video in question at the end. He says not only the fuels have melted down completely but some of them may already be outside the Pressure Vessels.
http://ex-skf.blogspot.com/2011/04/fukushima-i-nuke-plant-japan-nuclear.html
And this:
“I believe what they are trying to achieve after 9 months is to cool the reactor cores and solidify them so that no radioactive materials can escape. But they are just doing peripheral tricks like water entombment and nitrogen gas injection. Nitrogen gas, it’s dangerous, by the way.”
http://ex-skf.blogspot.com/2011/04/fukushima-i-nuke-plant-ishikawa-of-jnti.html
This is confirmed by following the government news source, NHK, which has reported in a very minimal way that the situation is not getting better.
For example, we all know now that the workers cannot get a helluva a lot done in the reactors buildings because it is far too radioactive in there. Is that because the
reactors had total meltdowns, as Ishikawa posits (see above)?
This is what I, a reasonable observer, wrote a month ago:
Any intelligent layperson who considers the technical aspects of the disaster will be at a loss as to how the plant operators will be able to restore the cooling system, which may be badly damaged, to reactors that themselves may be unrepairable or in various states of melt-down. If the nuclear fuel in the reactors has melted through to the floor, what would be the point of setting up a cooling system to a dysfunctional reactor and a pool of melted fuel?
No one in the government clearly answers these questions nor has the international community come forth with a possible solution.
http://www.counterpunch.org/wilcox04132011.html
And this is news from NHK from yesterday:
Workers have entered the No.1 reactor building to prepare to inject water into the containment vessel. On Tuesday, they started calibrating the water gauges, and a plan has been drawn up to install a heat exchanger.
However, none of these measures have been carried out at the other reactors, apart from pumping water into them.
The high levels of radiation detected inside the No.1 building could force TEPCO to change its work plan.
A clear strategy for containing the problem is yet to be seen 2 months after the nuclear accident occurred.
http://www3.nhk.or.jp/daily/english/11_04.html
A CLEAR STRATEGY IS YET TO BE SEEN 2 MONTHS LATER!
And a wee bit more sobering news….the first link explains how TEPCO basically OWNS the mass media, with
billions of yen in advertising revenue. Notice how Japan is in almost COMPLETE DENIAL of the situation? Most people
you talk to are nearly clueless of any of this information (and don’t want to know), with just a vague sense of unease and concern.
The Media is lying to the public, for all intents and purposes. 99 percent of the general public (in Japan, US, or wherever,
are just watching their usual moronic TV shows.)
A people as gullible as Americans have no future.

Anthony,
Thanks for quoting me in your article.
I’m sorry, below is latest update but is only in the subscription version, but if Anthony would email me I could send him a special version. Not that any of the news in the article by me is especially revealing, it is about the domestic situation etc. But do see the link as well, it will fit with your critique:

Btw, I do not agree with Counterpunch regarding 911 or Osama (official version!), but they have always done good environment reportage.

There were no Nazi gas chambers, or mass killing of Jews, that is a fact. See Germar Rudolph Dissecting the Holocaust (or Hoaxacost as I call it).
Not sure about the US wanting this to happen Anthony. Note that the reason Hamaoka has been closed is due to US pressure, they don’t what their bases to get messed up! True though, where is the help in solving this crisis? Nowhere, the international community (unless this is intentional) is a bunch of pathetic morons. Same goes for the morons in the J government. College professors in engineering are the worst!
My partner and I really enjoyed visiting on this page, I was just interested to acknowledge if you share featured posts? I am always seeking to find someone to make trades with but it’s simply a point of view I would call for.
