Olympic Games Spin – Based on Olympic Sized Lies – theme for March 2018
Fukushima today is the focus of the nuclear lobby’s most egregious lies. It’s hard to know where to start in examining them.
Let’s start with ionising radiation. This year’s March 11 report, by Shin-ichi Hayama, on the macaque monkeys of Fukushima reveals that they have radioactive cesium in their muscles, and significantly low white and red blood cell counts. They have reduced growth rate and smaller head sizes. These “snow monkeys” are close relatives to humans. Hayama’s 10 year study of the macaque provides a unique examination of the effects of chronic low level radiation affecting generations of monkeys.
New nuclear power for Japan, and nuclear technology as a profitable export? A visitor from another planet might well marvel at these fantasies – noting Fukushima’s radioactive shattered reactors, and ever growing masses of radioactive water – with Japan’s vulnerability to earthquakes.
The social costs continue – the rise in childhood and adolescent…

The UK Refuses To Produce Documents Related To Nuclear Materials Contracts With The Soviet Union During The Cold War, Citing Costs
To Russia with Love…..Nuclear Materials from Preston, UK
Enrichment was by gaseous diffusion in the US. The USSR used the Nazi Zippe centrifuge process.
“British Nuclear Fuels Limited (BNFL) was a nuclear energy and fuels company owned by the UK Government.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/British_Nuclear_Fuels_Ltd
BNFL and most, or all, of the European entities doing business with the Soviet Union during the Cold War were government owned!
Techsnabexport was Soviet owned (and now Russian owned): “1971 JSC Techsnabexport signed the first contract for the supply of uranium enrichment services with the Atomic Energy Commission of France. In 1973 the first shipment of uranium products was delivered to France followed by uranium enrichment services for Italy, Germany, Sweden and other European countries. In 1987 the first shipment of uranium enrichment services is delivered to the USA.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Techsnabexport
