- Dr. Helen Caldicott: There seems to be no end in sight for this dreadful catastrophe. About 300 to 400 tons of radioactive water per day are pouring into the Pacific, have been for the last 3 years, and will continue probably for the rest of time because no one can find out where the molten cores of a hundred of seethingly hot uranium are. No one can get near them because they’re so radioactive, and the water will continue to flow over them, I guess, forever more. I can’t see any other way out of it. […] I had the same reaction as you when two days after the tsunami and earthquake occurred […] I got this feeling in the pit of my stomach […] there is simply nothing anyone can do about it. And people are asking me all the time what can I take, what nutrients can I take? There’s nothing you can take to remove the radioactive elements from your body once you’ve eaten them.

- Caldicott: We need to be depressed. People can get through depression. […] People need to be sad, they need to be depressed. They need to get moving and close down all the reactors in America. They need to start getting off their bottoms and moving away from their computers, using their democracy, educating their representatives […] taking over the state house, the congress because you own them. In the vacuum that people leave by not using their democracy in an educated fashion that the corporations step into the vacuum.

- Caldicott: The nuclear industry is covering it up because they know damn well that if the real truth comes out it will be the end of nuclear power.
At 55:30 in
- Caldicott: It’s only America that can save the planet, if you rise to your full moral and spiritual height and decide to do it. Nothing else matters, nothing else matters.

Use our democracy? Take over congress? Close down the reactors in America?
I am afraid Helen may understand nuclear poisons, but she hasn’t a clue what has happened to voter and civil rights in the US or around the world………
The greedy guts have taken over the world, as this debacle story about mortgage and payment insurance issued by Lloyds ought to illustrate. 85-90% failure rate and nothing is said?????? They own the media, the banks, the governments, they could care less about the people or their future.

I found a website about the Napoleonville, LA sinkhole (a story that has completely vanished). On it, I found another story, the Germans have been storing nuclear waste in salt mines…….and it is becoming another global problem……not one word anywhere else……..Check this out, and if you think it worthwhile (I do), publish the stories.

Another report on Japan’s lies and genocide, the radiation is 2000X what is safe and they are telling people to go and live there……..this corruption should put the bastards in front of the world court for genocide………goddam all of them!

Caldicott, Busby & to a milder more guarded extent Gunderson, have been extolling the worst of their fears since before this happened. All it proves is that Einstein was right to be worried about what he’d discovered.
Nuclear whatever, in the hands of the human race is akin to giving gunpowder and matches to a bunch of chimpanzees.
WE’VE screwed up collectively. We allowed the nuclear lobby to grease palms and make totally unsupported claims for decades. The military industrial complex had a vested interest in its expansion, and Dwight warned us.
We were told it was a brave new world of energy from the atom, and as with all slick marketing, we believed it.
Now, it’s too late. The death cycle of our race has begun, self inflicted by apathy and moronic trust. Remnants will survive, possibly mutated or deficient in some way, but, it might be better if Barry & Vlad pressed the button, who knows?
But whether by Fukushima, WWlll, H5N1, GMO’s or Chemtrails, doesn’t matter, in the end, it is simply GREED that has destroyed us.
The least they can do is issue cyanide pills!!!
Unfortunately with all our intelligence we are, at an emotional and instinctual level, still savage animals. Our technology far exceeds our ability to use it responsibly. The British Astronomer Royal gives mankind a 50% chance of surviving another century. I think he is optimistic.
I agree with Squodgy and Bill.
We face our own extinction, and most of man is too stupid and full of denial to face it……..
