Japan's 3/11
By Adam Curry on Wednesday, March 16, 2011 at 3:30 AM.
A picture named beAfraid.jpgThe devistation of Japan's Sendai Earthquake and subsequent tsunami has created an event equal to that of 9/11. permalink
The loss of life and property is horrific, but what is now taking place before our very eyes is truly disgusting. permalink
Just like 9/11, we are being terrorized. The difference is the enemy isn't some bearded man with an Ak47 and boxcutter in his cave. Instead it's nuclear energy. permalink
Like like 9/11, Japan's 3/11 terrorization of all citizens of the world goes to the benefit of the oil cabal, the military academic industrial complex and investment bankers permalink
Where al-Qaeda terrorist activities quickly led to the invasion of Iraq under additional false pretense of WMD's in order to divide the countries resources among the big oil companies, the Japanese crime scene of the oil elite is far more sinister. permalink
And once again the mainstream media is playing along perfectly to the commands of their corporate owners.  permalink
News programs and cable channels have been terrorizing the world's population for days non-stop, with memes meant to invoke visions of a nuclear holocaust akin to the China Syndrome. permalink
The term and subsequent movie China Syndrome stems from the 1970's. Technology has improved a lot since then. Just think of your Remmington typewriter versus your iPad2 today. permalink
Of course corporate mainstream media doesn't want to bring in any experts that will tell you the truth about modern reactors and their physical inability to create a meltdown that would burn through the earth's crust right through the core to the other side of the planet.  permalink
That is not how you get ratings and keep your audience tuned in through the commercial break. permalink
I know nothing about nuclear energy production. But I do know that whenever there is an aviation related accident or tragedy, which I *do* consider my self to be somewhat expert in, the information espoused by the 'news' media is highly inaccurate, and almost always intended to scare the viewers into watching more. Depending on the agenda du jour, reporting may also point you towards alternative modes of transportation, like high speed rail. permalink
Bottom line, if you don't have terrible tragic frightening news to report, then you're not the expert that will be on TV. permalink
Luckily the web gives us access to many more sources of information. Just like wikileaks, the truth can be found. permalink
I have been following Rod Adams for many years and have spoken to him personally to educate myself on the advantages of nuclear energy, in particular regarding safety. permalink
Rod has worked for the US armed forces most of his career, in power plants and submarines. He calls himself an atomic activist, I call him a qualified expert. permalink
As soon as the Japanese tragedy started to unfold, I turned to Rod's writing. permalink
Rod's analysis of the mainstream reporting and terrorizing shows the many nuances we are not being informed of. permalink
-For example; there are substantial and medically important differences among the terms dose, dose rate, and contamination. permalink
-Melted fuel only generates enough heat to melt itself; it does not generating sufficient heat to melt through the thick steel pressure vessel where it resides. permalink
-Avoiding the China Syndrome is not a matter of luck - the scenario is imaginary and only works in fiction. Physics and material science make it impossible. permalink
The "Nuclear Terror Threat" is being used as cover by the oil industry to turn back the clock on proliferation of nuclear power. Several countries are now reconsidering future nuclear plans, some are even shutting down current plants. permalink
Gasoline fuel prices are rising despite actual crude prices declining. permalink
The Japanese stock market and economy are being decimated. permalink
Who do you think that benefits? permalink
Is the timing of Warren Buffet's 9 billion dollar purchase of Lubrizol just coincidence? According to their own documentation, their revenues of fuel additives soar in paralel with the price of oil. Their primary expansiion markets for the next 5 years? Asia and the middle east. permalink
News coverage of the upcoming Libyan invasion by US led forces has all but stopped, enabling backroom deals in Europe, the Middle East and even the senate to work on the Oil Cabal's behalf.  permalink
Just watch Libya get divided up into neat parcels of oil fields for the big oil companies. permalink
With Japan being the world's third largest oil consuming nation, it's being made clear they start listening to the true rulers of the world. They definitely will not be allowed to use the Iranian loophole once the IMF and Worldbank really get their claws dug in deep. permalink
The whole thing is a fractal, right down to government funded purchases of stockpiled pharmaceuticals to protect citizens from evil airborn death.  permalink
Just like last time, we won't die. Not from anthrax, nor from radiation drifting across the ocean. permalink
But the next oil spill might do some damage. permalink
