Tokyo's Saving-Face Olympics: but at what cost to the human race?
Garry Greenwood - March 2019
I must admit that it didn't come as a complete surprise when
I read how Tokyo's 2020 Olympic poster girl and gold medallist hopeful, Rikako
Ikee, had just been diagnosed with Leukaemia. My heart goes out to her and I
wish her a speedy recovery. How sad.
How unfortunate and untimely for the face-saving Abe regime
intent on using the 2020 Tokyo Olympics as their "Recovery Olympics" referring to the catastrophic destruction of
the nearby Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant. Japan's Prime Minister, Shinzo Abe,
had recently announced to the world that "the
situation was totally under control and that the accident had never done and
never would do any damage to Tokyo. Tokyo is the safest city in the world".
You may remember the disastrous March 2011 earthquake and
resultant tsunami that destroyed the Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant. This
nuclear Power Plant was one the largest in the world and boasted six nuclear
reactors all of which were damaged beyond repair. The molten nuclear cores of at least three of
these reactors melted through the floors of their containment vessels within
hours and are now unsalvageable and in contact with the ground water as they
bore forever deeper into the Earth. Another of the destroyed reactor buildings
is thought to be fully-laden with hundreds of highly radioactive fuel rods in a
pool of water precariously stored several stories above ground. This building
is rapidly deteriorating and should it collapse, Tokyo would need to be
evacuated immediately.
So putting Abe's comforting words aside for now let's examine
what independent nuclear experts have
to say regarding the fate of the Power Plant and those who lives have, or might
be affected in the future: with an emphasis on independent experts as opposed to those who might gain by
misrepresentation. Here we should note
that Japan's Olympic Committee President, Tsunekazu Takeda, has been indicted
by a French Court for alleged bribery and misrepresentation during Japan's
Olympic bid.
Let's start with one of Japan's most long-standing nuclear
experts, Professor Koide Hiroaki (recently retired), nuclear physicist from the
Kyoto University Institute for Integrated Radiation and Nuclear Science
Research. In his March 2019 report Koide
declares: "The Tokyo Olympics will take
place in a state of nuclear emergency. Japan's Atomic Energy Agency admits the
accident immediately released radiation equivalent to 168 Hiroshima bombs into
the atmosphere. Cores 1, 2, and 3 melted down within hours. The total combined
cesium 137 released into our atmosphere to date must be equivalent to 1,000
Hiroshima bombs. The containment of this disaster will not be achieved even
after all who are alive today have died. The radiation will last for a million
years".
Professor Koide's report also examines how Abe's Government
quietly raised the legal internationally prescribed acceptable dose of
radiation a person may receive by a factor of 20: meaning that it's now okay
for Japanese people and visitors to Japan to be exposed twenty times more than
the rest of humankind.
Meanwhile a March
2019 report by the Director of Fairwinds Energy Education, Arnie
Gundersen, points out how instead of focussing on the mitigation of the
radioactive exposure, "the Abe Government
has sought to re-direct world attention to the 2020 Olympics instead. The
triple meltdowns are the worst industrial catastrophe that humankind has ever
created. The three molten radioactive cores are now in direct contact with
groundwater these past eight years and then that highly toxic radioactive water
enters the Pacific Ocean".
"We took simple dirt and dust samples along the
Olympic torch route as well as inside Fukushima's Olympic stadium and as far
away as Tokyo. When the Olympic torch route and Olympic stadium samples were
tested, we found samples of dirt in Fukushima's Olympic Baseball Stadium
that were highly radioactive, registering 6,000 Bq/kg of Cesium, which is 3,000
times more radioactive than dirt in the US. We also found that simple
parking lot radiation levels were 50-times higher there than here in the US".
In a recent YouTube
video by ex-Japan Times editor, Yoich Shimatsu, you are taken on a tour of Tokyo Harbor and other highly radioactive
locations close to the destroyed Fukushima Nuclear Power Station. In this video
Shimatsu points out various Olympic venues, and with his Geiger counter in one
hand and camera in the other he gives viewers live on the spot readings of the
high levels of radiation there. He also points out several Olympic venues under
construction that have used radioactive contaminated soil in their foundations
that was transported directly from the Fukushima exclusion zone which is a mere
150 kilometers away.
So considering all
the above and more that space won't permit here, I am left wondering: is Abe's
insistence that all is well in Tokyo and Fukushima just about saving face or are
there others factors at play here? Yes, much is about profits as Ernie
Gundersen explains so well in his report featured above. But allow me to
introduce another ingredient into this hemlock laden witches brew - a brew
personifying all that this evil in the never ending battle between the forces
of good versus evil, as portrayed in Shakespeare's occult play, Macbeth.
Let's start with
Shinzo Abe, Japan's Prime Minister for most of the eight years since the
Fukushima catastrophe. What other factors could possibly be driving him to insist
on taking Japan down such a treacherous nuclear path - both energy-wise and
militarily?
The answers might
have their origins going back two generations starting with his grandfather, Nobusuke
Kishi. Kishi is a Class A
sentenced-to-death war criminal. Like many such war criminals he was released,
thereby escaping execution, by a special arrangement with the US in a "scientific" information exchange. Kishi
was Japan's war-time Armaments Minister and head Administrator of
Japanese-occupied Manchuria (near Harbin in N E China). Here and under his
command thousands of Chinese civilians and military personal were imprisoned
and forced to work as slaves in coal mines, Japanese owned factories as well as
being used as live guinea pigs in secret medical experiments. Thousands
perished in the most humane manner imaginable. It was here and under Kishi's
command that the notorious and secret Unit 731
was established wherein they experimented with and developed all kinds of
weapons of mass destruction, including biological and chemical weapons - often
using live Chinese people as guinea pigs.
Meanwhile Shinzo Abe's father, Shintaro Abe, has been named on at
least two occasions in both the Japanese parliament and in independent
news agencies as being the main sponsor and financier of the
apocalyptic and murderous religious cult - Aum Shinri Kyo - the one that tried
to murder thousands of Japanese subway commuters in downtown Tokyo by using Sarin
gas. The battle-cry of this cult is - The
earth must be destroyed in order for us to save it.
Shinzo Abe, like
his father Shintaro Abe, is also named by independent news agencies as being
implicated in the sponsoring and financing of the occult Aum Shinri Kyo
apocalyptic cult.
So where do I go from here? Should I go to the Tokyo 2020 Olympics or not?
I have two choices - the red pill
or the blue pill.
Firstly do I accept Prime Minister Shinzo Abe's account of radiation levels in and around Tokyo and the Olympic venues? Should I believe a Prime Minister cursed with the genetic imprint of a Japanese war criminal/mass murderer and son of an ultra-right wing father who abides by an apocalyptic ideology? Or should I place my trust, and health, in the hands of independent, qualified nuclear scientists such as Professor Koide Hiroaki and Arnie Gundersen?
"Those people and countries who will participate, will, on the one
hand, themselves risk exposure and, on the other hand, become accomplices to
the crimes of the nation". Professor Koide Hiroaki.
"Double,
double, toil and trouble. Fire burn and cauldron bubble" sing Shakespeare's
wicked witches as they add hemlock to the brew - a brew personifying all
that is evil.
