Violation of basic human rights of Americans

The federal government is entering into what is quite
literally dangerous territory with its plans to fully sup****t
yet another uranium enrichment plant certain to harm
the good people of Idaho - and countless others throughout
the nation. And if that's not bad enough, plans for two
other nuclear facilities that emit these toxic, radioactive
gasses into the environment are in the works for Ohio
and New Mexico as well.
All this point, however, nothing is new. As the resources
below sadly demonstrate, uranium facilities owned and
operated by those in the federal laboratories' arm of the
nuclear energy "biz" have already done a good job of
contaminating the states of Idaho, (1) Ohio, (2) and New
Mexico (3). Now, with the private cor****ate ventures of
new Uranium enrichment facilities on the drawing board
in these same three states, it is quite clear that nuclear
contamination of America is the federal stock holders'
most lucrative, tried 'n' true, "hot" commodity. (4)
If you have no idea why anyone might object to the
construction of Uranium enrichment plants that promise
to bring a few hundred jobs into each state, you are
hereby encouraged to do a simple Internet search as
follows, including the quotation marks just as you see
them.
"Uranium enrichment plant" +contamination
This search will give you over 11,000 "hits" that explain
exactly why we must never allow the construction of even
one more of these Uranium enrichment facilities, not ever
again.
Senator Larry Craig, R (Idaho) has gone on record with
the premier federal media mouth piece, FOX News,
promoting the lie that uranium enrichment processing
is a "clean energy technology." (5) The truth of the matter,
however, is that energy originating from uranium is the
*dirtiest* form of energy that can possibly be produced.
Apologies to those still clinging on for dear life to the
hopelessly corrupt Blue Party's Al Gore and his most
"Inconvenient Truth". What those in the anti-nuke community
know - that most well-meaning progressives do not - is
that the huge push against carbon emissions (read that
as 'coal') was little more than a clever - yet absolutely
sinister - propaganda blitz designed to ensure the financially
lucrative resurgence of the nuclear industry.
The entire campaign for zero carbon emissions is nothing more than an
ingenious plan
to mislead people into believing that coal is the worst form of energy
while, in
fact, radioactive uranium energy (aka "nuclear power") is, far and away,
much more
dangerous for all forms of life - for all eternity.
Furthermore, adding insult to injury, the French nuclear firm AREVA holds
an
undeniable international reputation for being the most slick, compromised
company of
all such nuclear cor****ations. Again, you can learn more - to the tune of
over 59,000
"hits" - about the antics of this firm plagued by problems and scandalous
operations
simply by doing a Google search for:
AREVA + contamination.
Lest we think this does not concern us - after all, Idaho (or Ohio or New
Mexico) is
located nowhere near most of us - we must remember that winds can carry
invisible,
ultra-light, microscopic-sized radio nuclides thousands of miles through
the air. So
when you operate a uranium enrichment plant or a nuclear power plant in
one state,
this stuff doesn't stop at the state line. And as it spreads, this stuff
is inhaled
and bombards the internal organs causing cell destruction, death, and
cancer - as
well as a host of other radiation-induced diseases. (6)
Yet the push for the revival or "nuclear renaissance" of
All-Things-Uranium right
now - thanks, in large part, to our Vice Demander-In-Chief, who so
thoughtfully paved
the way for this filthy form of energy upon his arrival into authoritarian
power - is
so pervasive that it is going to take the overwhelmingly loud, outraged
voices of the
American people to stop this amoral uranium push and restore sanity in
this horribly
compromised, hijacked, "Profit Before People" federal government.
I normally write about uranium weapons, so some might be wondering why I
am straying
off the topic here? Well, the point is, this is not off topic in the
slightest.
Actually, the more we really think about it, if our federal government is
actually
pu****ng sources of energy that radioactively contaminate our air, our
water, our
soils (and thus, our family's food supplies) for roughly 45 billion years,
then I
must speak up and out. I must speak to everyone who will listen and ask
exactly how
this uranium poison gas - dispersed via federally-sanctioned uranium
enrichment
plants - is any different from the use of Depleted Uranium weapons that
disperse
these same deadly toxic and radioactive contaminants into the air, soil,
and water.
If you are putting into the atmosphere and environment a dangerous
radioactive
contaminant scientifically proven to weaken, sicken, and kill millions of
people over
billions of years (which is close enough to eternity for most of us), then
is that
not tantamount to use of radiological weapons of indiscriminate effects,
as
prohibited by the UN Sub-Commission of Human Rights?
If a government emits into the air and water of its own people the same
uranium
radio-nuclides outlawed by the United Nations, (7) is it not reasonable to
consider
the proliferation of uranium enrichment plants as a type of weapon, used
with full
knowledge that radioactive gasses damage and destroy the basic building
blocks of all
forms of life?
It is high time we asked ourselves if the dispersal method of these
uranium poison
gases have to be exploded out of an Abrams tank or fired out of an A-10
Warthog's
Gatling gun to be considered a lethal weapon. Can this same radioactive
poison not
also come from a Uranium enrichment plant or a nuclear power plant - both
of which
emit these same lethal radio-nuclides into our environment?
As I discovered after interviewing UN Human Rights Attorney, Karen Parker,
J.D.,
deliberate placing of toxic, radioactive materials into the American
environment with
a known destructive and damaging effect upon human health is, in
actuality, a
violation of basic human rights of Americans, granted to us under
International Law.
(8)
Uranium enrichment plants and nuclear power plants have historically
created toxic
and radioactive contamination - and unfathomably huge numbers of illnesses
and deaths
throughout the US - since the uranium industrial-military "biz" started
back in the
early 1940s. Is it not high time that we all started screaming at Congress
- at the
very top of our lungs - to stop gassing our own people by dispersing
uranium aerosols
into our environment? For all eternity?
If you are not familiar with the effects of radiation upon the human body,
I urge you
to do some reading at the following websites. Only an informed, and
appropriately
outraged outpouring of US citizens' demanding that our federal government
stop the
radioactive poisoning of America is going to stop those in control from
employing
this nuclear arsenal upon us, our families, and our descendents for, quite
literally,
an eternity.

Sternglass, Dr.
Chris Busby, the scientists at the Uranium Medical Research Centre, and
Bob Nichols
for being among the first to articulate and bring forth into public
awareness the
connection between uranium poison gas being considered a weapon that harms
human
life - whether dispersed from a uranium enrichment facility, a nuclear
power plant, a
nuclear bomb, or an actual radioactive weapon used everyday in several
nations -
including inside the US - by our own military and national nuclear
laboratories.
