I’ve been reading about FukuNuku since the second day of the tsunami - finally couldn’t stand the threads here beacuse of all the liars and deniers, went to TB2 where they have excellent news hounds, that Japanese blogger, and another forum with excellent news hounds. Then I slacked off reading for a while due to being overwhelmed.
Just got on TLR’s ping list, and catching up with a bit of the horrific ongoing news. The lies and un-freaking-believable. Guvs and nuke plants will lie til their last breath. SOP for guvs and corporate entities now.
What’s the TB2? Do tell!
I used to skim a rad tech’s blog for useful information because he showed true regard for the pointless hazards that the Japanese workers were being exposed to, and demanded early to know what the strontium levels were, saying it was unbelievable that they wouldn’t be testing for strontium etc. But - he’s a nuke guy in the end - after 3 core meltdowns were revealed, he said that was ‘good’ in that it showed how sound the design of the reactors were!!!!!!!
You know, once the Soviet citizens realized the depth of their governments’ lies and that the citizens would now be forced to live in radioactively contaminated zones the rest of their lives, eating contaminated food, drinking contaminated water, facing birth defects in newborns - ‘international scientists’ detected high levels of ‘mental illness’ among the survivors. (What a surprise! Why are they depressed?!) This is a favorite detail of nuke apologists because they use this ‘high levels of mental illness’ report to support their sickening claim that the irrational fear of radiation does more harm to (mental) health that actual radiation contamination! You really gotta be conscienceless to make a claim like that! Destroy peoples lives and blame them for making it all up in their heads!
I was thoroughly unprepared for the amount of deception surrounding Fukushima (in the US nuke apologists, gov agencies, and Japan)and I remember some of it from TMI. It’s just seems so much worse now - I guess because the tragedy is so much worse that they show more of themselves now.
