Showing what was known even in Dec. 2012.

Tokyo Almost As Irradiated As Fukushima:

Think of all the money they'll save on the night events if everyone glows in the dark. Great for TV.

The 2020 Glow Games

(September 08, 2013) As Fukushima radiation rages, Tokyo awarded bid to host 2020 Summer Olympics, hilariously named the 'Safe Games':

Despite the fact that Fukushima is already the worst radiological disaster in human history -- and worsening by the day -- Japan has been chosen as the host nation for the 2020 Summer Olympics.

Hilariously, the event is being billed the "Safe Games" of 2020.

How, exactly, is it safe to host the Olympics in a nation which absolutely no workable evacuation routes from a nuclear facility on the verge of collapsing into another deadly radiation release?

(September 10th) Japan Nuclear Expert: I was “flabbergasted” by Olympic speech — Fukushima reactors are actually destroyed and constantly leaking in ocean — Contamination dumping into sea — PM: “It’s contained in 0.3 km² area of harbor”:

(September 10th) AFP: Fears that Fukushima melted reactor cores have “eaten through” concrete of containment vessels — Tepco plan claims fuel to be removed at same time as 2020 Olympics in Tokyo:

"Hi Everybody!

Look! They gave me an Olympic Torch -

LED and a battery, so I don't get scorched!

And I got a TV so I can watch,

as I'm not allowed out past our porch

because dirt is now something kids shouldn't touch -

but we'll all feel good seeing others play sports

and we can all dress up in t-shirts and shorts

and run and jump around in the house -

except I can't as my nose bleeds if I do too much -

but it's OK because hormesis makes babies strong

and I'll be an Olympian before too long!

Remember – in Fukushima there's nothing wrong!

Let's sing the Tokyo Olympics Song!"

I love these one-man threads.

Great credible news sources!

Flawed rhyming scheme. Try haiku:

Five lone electrons

circling around their protons:

five rings of summer

Will Godzilla be allowed to compete for Japan? What event would he do?

These reports brought to you by the Turkish Olympic Committee.

It is clear that the IOC's interests are:

1. financial security - if even London exposes this, don't think Madrid will be any better

2. Threat of Violence - London had to compleltely beef up their security, meaning more problems in their costs and that is one the IOC will NOT get any of. Rio has the current threat of government protests and Istanbul also has had to deal with them recently.

#2 is why they are calling it the "safe games"

(September 12th, 2013) Japan Times: Talk of Olympics being taken away from Tokyo if problems at Fukushima worsen over next couple of years:

(September 12th, 2013) Outrage in Japan at French cartoon linking Fukushima disaster to 2020 Olympics:

http://rt.com/news/fukushima-french-cartoon-japan-788/

An official complaint will be lodged with the weekly paper Le Canard Enchaine through the Japanese Embassy in France, the government spokesman added.

One of the cartoons carried in the satirical newspaper on Wednesday showed two sumo wrestlers with extra legs and arms competing in front of the crippled nuclear plant with a sign reading "Marvelous! Thanks to Fukushima, sumo is now an Olympic sport."

Another cartoon showed people in protective costumes conducting radiation tests by the side of a pool saying "There is already a pool in Fukushima for the Olympics."

The radiation will probably cause the 5k to be really slow, like slower than 13:20! Wouldn't that suck!

This will not be a problem. It's not a problem now. Radioactivity is usually not that big a deal. Even significant fallout poses little threat after the first few days. More sensationalist bs.

This is a little different, this is a powerplant.

The whole thing about nuclear war is not just the militaries nukes, but the powerplants that all go offline at the same time in a war. There are what 1000 powerplants worldwide? A nuclear powerplant is the most destructive thing in the world by far. Nothing compares. They should all be shut down.

This isn't some limited release, but ongoing, as Kazuhiko Yamashita, who holds the executive-level title of "fellow" at Tokyo Electric Power, who just admitted it. This is was quickly spun the situation is under control, just not the groundwater going over the melted cores that has burned into the ground which goes out into the Pacific....

(13 September, 2013) Fukushima "not under control", says TEPCO official:

In a meeting with members of the opposition Democratic Party of Japan, Yamashita was asked whether he agreed that "the situation is under control" as Abe had declared at the International Olympic Committee meeting in Buenos Aires.

He responded by saying, "I think the current situation is that it is not under control," according to major media, including national broadcaster NHK.

News of his comment prompted a rush by the government and TEPCO to elaborate on Yamashita's remark, saying he was talking specifically about the plant's waste water problem, and not the facility's situation in general.

Chief Cabinet Secretary Yoshihide Suga, Abe's right-hand man, separately said Yamashita was repeatedly pressed by DPJ lawmakers when he made the remark.

The punchline:

The view of TEPCO as a company does not contradict Abe's statement, Suga added.

September 12th, 2013) Microbiology Professor: “Gov’t needs to ban all fish imports from all regions of Japan” — Nuclear Professor: “No one can block fish migration along with sea currents”

(September 12th, 2013) National Geopraphic: Fears are mounting that Fukushima radiation could lead to dangerous contamination levels in seafood from Pacific — At least for now fish are not glowing so ‘eat up’!

Lacsap

"But at least for now, I’m happy to reassure Joe Romm and all the parents of Facebook: your fish are not glowing with Fukushima radiation. Eat up!"

The moron doesn't know that radiation particles like cesium, Plutonium etc do not glow by itself, to glow you need to stimulate it by adding fluors or scintilators.

We Not They Finally

Buesseler is hardly "a moron." He surely does know better. People just need to be educated enough not to believe him. Was always suspicious of him, but now that he is suggesting that people deliberately endanger their families, it's over the line.

Here's something that Gundersen said a ways back . . .

"I am thinking by 2013 we might see contamination of the water and of the top of the food chain fishes on the West Coast."

obewanspeaks

They have recently found strontium-90 in the flesh of fish right here in the US waterways and near Nuclear Power Plant discharges. This strontium-90 was not only in the bones, which you do not eat, but in the flesh too that you chow down and this is a sign of the current bioaccumulation process.

The fish bones are already full/overloaded with strontium-90!

This bioaccumulation process strontium-90 overload effecting the flesh will vary dependent on species exposed and then move quickly worldwide now…

Plenty of Radioactive "Hot Fish Flesh" will now be consumed world wide..
