American
military forces participating in Nevada Atomic testing
From 1951 to 1970 the United States Government conducted over
1100 Atomic tests in Nevada whose radiation fallout has resulted in over
200,000 deaths throughout the country ~ instant karma for the over 200,000
deaths from the Atomic bombing of Hiroshima in 1945 and now Fukushima is slowly
radiating the West Coast. In less than 70 years, Karmic law has once again
asserted that those who ride the forces of evil will eventually be crushed by
the very same forces: Allen L Roland, Ph.D
I
was only 11 years old when The United States dropped the first Atomic bomb on
Hiroshima on August 6, 1945. I remember the moment well for I was sitting
across the street at the Thompson Club, Nahant waiting for my twin brother to
join me to play baseball. Suddenly I felt an immense sense of collective
loss ~ and then a short time later my twin brother came running from across the
street telling me that we had dropped an Atomic bomb on Japan. Even at that
young age, I somehow sensed we had released an evil powerful genie that could
eventually destroy ourselves and the planet.
Power
corrupts, absolute atomic power absolutely
morally corrupts, particularly when it is in the hands of the
Military/Industrial complex with the power to control and destroy the world ~
whereas human life eventually becomes collateral damage as it did with the
Atomic testing during the sixties in Nevada.
Here's a chart of the radiation fallout
pattern from
the Nevada testing ~ please note that it
extends well across the country while compensation is only being offered to a
few states bordering Nevada.
The impact of nuclear contamination on an individual is
generally estimated as the result of the dose of radiation received and the
duration of exposure, using the Linear No-Threshold Model (LNT). The
hypothesis was adopted for regulatory purposes about 65 years ago and has no
scientific evidence to support its validity in the years since then. It
is vehemently rejected by the health and epidemiological communities in the
face of abundant data refuting its validity. Sex, age, race, culture,
occupation, class, location, and simultaneous exposure to additional environmental toxins are also significant, but
often overlooked, factors that contribute to the health effects on a particular
"downwind" community
Here's
some color film footage of atomic
bomb tests in Nevada - especially the downwinders as well as hundreds of soldiers being exposed to high levels of radiation. 5

The United States Radiation Exposure Compensation Act
(RECA) is a federal statute providing for the monetary compensation of
people, including atomic veterans, who contracted cancer and a number
of other specified diseases as a direct result of their exposure to atmospheric
nuclear
testing undertaken by the United States during the Cold War, or
their exposure to high levels of radon while doing uranium
mining. The 1990 act provided the following remunerations:
- $50,000 to individuals residing or
working "downwind" of the Nevada Test Site
- $75,000 for workers participating
in atmospheric nuclear weapons tests
- $100,000 for uranium miners,
millers, and ore transporters
In all cases there are additional requirements which must be satisfied
(proof of exposure, establishment of duration of employment, establishment of certain medical
conditions, etc.).
In some cases, however, it was extremely difficult for
people to receive their compensation, especially in the case of the widows of
uranium miners. Because many uranium miners were Native Americans, they did
not have standard marriage licenses required to establish a legal connection to
the deceased. In 1999, revisions were published in the Federal
Register to assist in making award claims. See Down winders

On April 18, 2013, H.R. 1645: The Radiation Exposure
Compensation Act Amendments of 2013 was introduced in Congress and promptly
referred to committee with virtually zero chance of being enacted. There
have currently been no votes related to this bill ~ https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/113/hr1645
The yellow states on this RECA chart are still virtually
uncompensated for their exposure to radiation from over 1100 Atomic tests due
to Congressional inaction or lack of public outcry. In 1980, People magazine revealed some consequences
of continental nuclear testing for American citizens. The magazine disclosed
that of some 220 cast and crew who filmed a 1956 film, The Conqueror, on location near St.
George, Utah, (over 120 miles from Atomic test sites) ninety-one had
come down with cancer, with an unheard of 41 per cent morbidity rate. Of these, forty-six had died of cancer by 1980.
Among the victims were John Wayne and Susan
Hayward, the stars of the film.
Color film footage of atomic bomb tests with active duty military
personnel at Camp Desert Rock, Nevada Test Site, Nevada, shows soldiers in foxholes as nuclear detonation
occurs nearby; light and shockwaves; blowing dust; soldiers climbing out of foxholes and running towards mushroom cloud. Some
of this footage is familiar by virtue of having been seen in the film Atomic
Cafe. Many soldiers who were present were exposed to high levels of
radiation ~ and soon to be joined by countless civilians downwind ~ who were
also assured by their government that there was nothing to fear. See

And now we have the 2011 nuclear meltdown at Fukushima releasing another Genie
of ongoing deadly radiation, along with the same old government assurances and
lies, to an equally complacent public. For those who are not
concerned by the payback from nuclear radiation ~ here's a Time-Lapse

Once
again, Power corrupts, absolute power absolutely morally corrupts, particularly
when it is in the hands of the Military/Industrial complex with the power to
control and destroy the world ~ and now we are realizing the deadly instant
karma from the political mindset of the military complex to bomb, incinerate and fatally radiate over 200,000
people at Hiroshima and Nagasaki, Japan.
“After
the thing went off, after it was a sure thing that America could wipe out a
city with just one bomb, a scientist turned to Father and said, 'Science has
now known sin.' And do you know what Father said? He said, 'What is sin?”

[ When asked “Dr. Einstein, why is it that when the mind of man has stretched so far as to discover the structure of the atom we have been unable to devise the political means to keep the atom from destroying us?”] That is simple, my friend. It is because politics is more difficult than physics. — Albert Einstein
