BUSTING the NUCLEAR SPIN – theme for May 2011
Nuclear Spin has suddenly become critically important. The global nuclear industry was failing, anyway. But Fukushima could give it the final fatal blow.
The Nuclear Establishment is now in a panic – spinning furiously on many levels.
A main focus is on downplaying the health effects of ionising radiation. They will tell you that there have been “few deaths” from Chernobyl radiation. They’ll prove it – citing only thyroid cancer. The World Health Organisation, (WHO, hand in glove with the International Atomic Energy Agency, IAEA), counts only thyroid cancer as a result from Chernobyl – not leukaemia, other cancers, or birth defects
As cancer effects from the Chernobyl disaster can be expected around 25 years afterwards, the nuclear mafia point to the early death toll (after 1986) – not to 2011, 0r future years. From this, they then claim that the Fukushima disaster also has had a relatively small effect on health.
At the same time, the Nuclear Establishment works to weaken regulations on ionising radiation, and to push the false idea that low level radiation is benign, even beneficial to human health. Already the Japanese government is changing the rules,to permit higher radiation levels in children as “acceptable.
