Atlantic; Including Caribbean, Canada’s east coast Sigh.... All of these people are mentioning the radiation and its possible dangers and effects, but that is not the true reason for being concerned. The radiation itself is far less dangerous than the elements it emerges from. Plutonium is among the most highly toxic substances on the earth. "Animal studies found that a few milligrams of plutonium per kilogram of tissue is a lethal dose" [link to en.wikipedia.org] Caesium-137 is water-soluble and chemically toxic in small amounts. [link to en.wikipedia.org] Iodine isotopes as a byproduct of nuclear fission are not good for you either. Acute effects from high doses include thyroiditis, while chronic and delayed effects include hypothyroidism, thyroid nodules, and thyroid cancer. [link to en.wikipedia.org] The fact that radiation has been detected in all of these areas means that these elements are present there, as dust from the fires and explosions. These elements will enter the food chain, and be consumed by all. From the rain to the grass to the cow to the burger. I'd expect we will see a lot of people getting sick soon. |

'When Plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men, they create for themselves, in the course of time, a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.' Frederic Bastiat, 'The Law' 1850 ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "The business of the journalists is to destroy the truth, to lie outright, to pervert, to vilify, to fawn at the feet of mammon, and to sell his country and his race for his daily bread. You know it and I know it, and what folly is this toasting an independent press? We are the tools and vassals of rich men behind the scenes. We are the jumping jacks, they pull the strings and we dance. Our talents, our possibilities and our lives are all the property of other men. We are intellectual prostitutes." JohnSwinton, 1830-1901, Former chief-of-staff New York Times ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ "The bold effort the present bank has made to control the Government, the distress it has wantonly produced ... are but premonitions of the fate that awaits the American People should they be deluded into a perpetuation of this institution (The Bank of the United States), or the establishment of another like it." Andrew Jackson (December 2, 1834) |

[link to images2.dailykos.com] [link to www.faculty.virginia.edu] I was born in 1985, this was worse then all chemtrails put together and my country was hit very hard (Slovenia,i...f you look on the first map, the fallout was as bad in austria and slovenia as it was in Kiev Ukraine) Yet i dont know anyone who has Radiation related problems of anykind. I just think most of it is scare tactics, like swine flue and mostly everything else put out by the media, if you understood and knew how this world functions you would understand that there is a reason for this fear-mongering, the world elite NEEDS as many as people as possible to be in fear to make their next step, this works on all levels, not only physical. And lets not forget, the media makes their living selling fear..otherwise non-of you would tune in. So please, calm down a bit, yes be cautious when buying milk etc., but please dont go overboard or panic. Imagine if GODLIKE PRODUCTIONS was up and running back then and the state of the internet was up too todays standard and popularity. Imagine the doom non-sense and how everyone would die in europe and DOOOOOOOM spamming etc. just think about it... we need to calm down and think more clearly and not let fear get too us i think.. Just food for thought |
