And while these elevated levels of radioactive poisons such as Tritium are captured in filters and measured in the wines grown from local vineyards in the valleys surrounding the Livermore Laboratory, so-called "acceptable" collective radiation doses are met with ho-hum blasé. What comes to mind are the words of the man called "the father of Health Physics", long-term Director of Health Physics at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Dr. Karl Z. Morgan, who admitted, "There is no safe level of exposure and there is no dose of radiation so low that the risk of a malignancy is zero". www.acereport.org/safe.pdf

Certainly the US military and the Department of Energy must not have been listening to Dr. Morgan and others like Dr. John William Gofman, who had worked at the Livermore Laboratory and, at the request of J. Robert Oppenheimer, helped produce Plutonium for the Manhattan Project. In a 1994 interview with the University of California Medical Physics professor, Gofman was asked if the lowest doses [of radiation] will produce cancer? Gofman's response was clear, "The answer is this: ionizing radiation is not like a poison out of a bottle where you can dilute it and dilute it. The lowest dose of ionizing radiation is one nuclear track through one cell. You can't have a fraction of a dose of that sort. Either a track goes through the nucleus and affects it, or it doesn't." www.ratical.org/radiation/CNR/synapse.html

Tragically, radioactive contamination from atomic bomb blasts, simulated mock bomb detonations, artillery "test" sites, proving grounds, and live-fire air-to-ground ranges http://tinyurl.com/2j5m2m
has built up inside America - in our atmosphere, our water, our earth, our vegetation, and in all living things. All these years of military and National Laboratory "experiments" and what are loosely termed "tests" have taken a toll both on our environment - and our health.

Perhaps the hardest pill to swallow, however, is the sobering reality that even in the most unlikely event that all weapons-related activities involving radioactive substances were to suddenly stop? Consider for a moment only one of the radioactive materials, Depleted Uranium, which has been used inside the United States for over sixty years. Since DU has a half-life of 4.5 billion years, this means that the millions of tons of this radioactive poison and toxic contamination that the military and weapons "labs" have used through the current day will wreck havoc on our planet for more years into the future than the earth has even been around.


Since 1945, our citizens have been taking in this contamination by eating the food, drinking the water, and breathing the air. But sadly, these poisons will not go away when we have all left this earth. These military "tests" and National Laboratory www.brook.edu/fp/projects/nucwcost/sites.htm
experiments - involving at least eighty (80) radioisotopes -
www.llnl.gov/tid/lof/documents/pdf/335150.pdf contain some of the very deadliest substances in the world, which are even more hazardous to our environment and human health than Depleted Uranium alone. And worse yet, these toxic poisons are here to stay.

My God! We have wrecked this planet permanently - and there is no turning back.

It would be one thing if they did not realize and simply did not know what they were doing with the use of radioactive materials such as Depleted Uranium. But according to Dr. Doug Rokke, former U.S. Army's DU team health physicist and former U.S. Army's DU Project Director, "The primary U.S. Army training manual: STP 21-1-SMCT: Soldiers Manual of Common Tasks states "NOTE: (Depleted uranium) Contamination will make food and water unsafe for consumption." http://tinyurl.com/2m8q59

Today, virtually all fifty states are contaminated in one way or another by Depleted Uranium, either from wind currents that bring the Uranium aerosols into other areas of the country, or more directly, through mining, production, manufacture, storage, detonations, burnings, and/or "testing" - via artillery test ranges, air-to-ground drops, or ship-to-shore exercises.

Despite all this contamination, those in charge in America continue to use this material, often in increasing amounts, and conduct "testing" of it, as these activities are called, always working to devise more lethal weapons to more effectively do greater harm to increasing numbers of people. Americans are included in these hazards and forthright information is never given regarding the actual devastating health impacts these toxic, radiological munitions have on the unsuspecting population.

These radionuclides keep right on contaminating our air and environment and ensure deleterious health effects for multitudes of generations to come. Radiation wrecks havoc with DNA and causes permanent genetic cell mutation our descendents will pass down to future offspring - forever. Remarkably, even the EPA, the supposed protector of not the environment but, in actuality, grand defender of the aims of Empire, acknowledges on its website that: "Radiation can cause changes in DNA, the "blueprints" that ensure cell repair and replacement produces a perfect copy of the original cell. Changes in DNA are called mutations:" www.epa.gov/radiation/understand/health_effects.htm

DNA changes caused by radiation notwithstanding, at the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, the maximum annual amount of radioactive materials, including Depleted Uranium and Tritium, that are permitted to be detonated in the densely populated greater San Francisco Bay/San Jose area was increased eight-fold on November 13, 2006 from 1,000 pounds to 8,000 pounds. http://tracypress.com/content/view/6154/

These now-larger explosions are being performed under the guise of "stockpile stewardship". What this boils down to is the simulation of various types of bombs through photographing, analyzing, and then recording the way that radionuclides travel through the air. The ultimate unstated goal, however, appears to be to harm as many humans as possible. Why else would such tests be conducted in the close proximity of ten million people?

This radiation is being exploded, shot, burned, and fired into our air on purpose, and even the EPA admits that the radiation harms cells and the genetic material of American babies yet to be born. Can there then be any doubt that those who use bombs, bullets, missiles, open air explosions and burnings as dispersal methods by which to blanket our atmosphere and radioactively contaminate our earth are entirely void of conscience? Admittedly, it is this psychopathic disdain for human life - and American ones at that - that is difficult for the normal mind to even comprehend.

Clearly, these "users" and "pushers" of Depleted Uranium are not like you and me. These psychopaths do not operate out of thought processes involved with customary rationality. They feel no remorse for their amoral and illegal actions. Nor do they exhibit compassion for those whose suffering they cause. And while the healthy among us shed tears when contemplating the vast amounts of pain and suffering experienced by foreigners and fellow citizens alike who become sick and die as a result of this radioactive poison gassing? Psychopaths can even find their health-destroying handiwork downright stimulating.

Since these creatures who masquerade as regular humans live and breathe this contaminated air, too, it's hard to grasp the twisted tendency that includes not only harming others with these munitions of death but also exposing their own selves to this devastating health risk in the process. Thus, these puppets who carry out these radioactive explosive "shots" and conduct these military burns and artillery tests carry out sacrificial Kamikaze missions where their own health and prospects for the enjoyment of longevity are apparently secondary to the mission of national "defense" by radiation at hand.

Perhaps they feel like martyrs or something, willingly exposing themselves to excess rems of radiation? These order-takers are clearly not only willing to harm others and themselves in the process, but most incredibly, like the dutiful military and non-military "soldiers" they are, sacrifice even their own families by living in these communities near radioactive "test" sites and passing down cell mutations and damaged DNA for their future generations to carry along to their offspring. Such is the passionate devotion and blind obedience to performing the mechanics of pre-calculated, permissible radiological "doses" as part of the radiation dispersers' daily workday regimen.
