NUKED! NOT BOMBED...JUST NUKED

Submitted by: Nancy Battle
 
Dear Conservatives,  
 
 The World is at a critical crossroads. 
The Fukushima disaster in Japan has 
brought to the forefront the dangers 
of Worldwide nuclear radiation.
The crisis in Japan has been described 
as "a nuclear war without a war". In 
the words of renowned novelist Haruki 
Murakami:
"This time no one dropped a bomb on 
us ... We set the stage, we committed 
the crime with our own hands, we are 
destroying our own lands, and we are 
destroying our own lives."
Nuclear radiation --which threatens life 
on planet earth-- is not front page news, 
in comparison to the most insignificant 
issues of public concern.
While the long-term repercussions of the 
Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster are 
yet to be fully assessed, they are far 
more serious than those pertaining to 
the 1986 Chernobyl disaster in the Ukraine, 
which resulted in almost one million deaths 
(New Book Concludes -- Chernobyl death 
toll: 985,000, mostly from cancer Global 
Research, September 10, 2010, See also

Severity of the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear 
Disaster: Comparing Chernobyl and 
Fukushima, Global Research, May 25, 
2011)
The shaky political consensus both in 
Japan, the U.S. and Western Europe is 
that the crisis at Fukushima has been 
contained.
The realties, however, are otherwise.
An opinion poll in May 2011 confirmed 
that more than 80 per cent of the 
Japanese population do not believe the 
government's information regarding the 
nuclear crisis (quoted in Sherwood Ross, 
Fukushima: Japan's Second Nuclear 
Disaster, Global Research, November 10, 
2011)
The Impacts in Japan
The Japanese government has been 
obliged to acknowledge that "the severity 
rating of its nuclear crisis ... matches that 
of the 1986 Chernobyl disaster". In a bitter 
irony, however, this tacit admission by 
the Japanese authorities has proven to 
been part of the cover-up of a significantly 
larger catastrophe, resulting in a process 
of global nuclear radiation and contamination:
"While Chernobyl was an enormous 
unprecedented disaster, it only occurred at 
one reactor and rapidly melted down. Once 
cooled, it was able to be covered with a 
concrete sarcophagus that was constructed 
with 100,000 workers. There are a 
staggering 4,400 tons of nuclear fuel rods 
at Fukushima, which greatly dwarfs the 
total size of radiation sources at Chernobyl."
