Nuclear Hotseat #56 - July 10, 2012 - Fukushima Activist Cheiko Shiina

Published: July 11, 2012, 5:09 a.m.

Report on Fukushima resident and activist Chieko Shiina's heartrending presentation on current life in Japan and Fukushima, along with information on how to help her start the Fukushima Children's Clinic to address pressing health problems. Plus: Fukushima determined by Japanese committee to be "a man-made disaster" (incompetence can do that!); TEPCO top execs resign... only to get their golden parachutes ; San Onofre whistleblowers not covered by state protective laws (blame it on the Marines!); ; more evil doings by Dr. Shunich Yamashita, Japan's equivalent of Dr. Mengele; health problems rampant in Fukushima but the governnment isn't listening; international nukes take a business hit across the board; Japanese TB outbreak believed linked to radiation; Czech Republic to give sanctuary and healing protocols for 30 "radiation refugees" -- Fukushima children ages 12-14; and 150,000 protest restart of Oi reactors, but it's the direct attack by swarms of jellyfish that slowed it down. Let's hear it for Ma Nature's spineless warriors!
