Fukushima: Radiation, Politics, & PR

By Leuren Moret, Dr. Majia Nadesan and Jim Fetzer (with Major William Fox)

Jim Fetzer has posted his recent interview by two top radiation specialists on the Veterans Today “Military and Foreign Affairs Journal” website, which includes the audio version and a printed transcript.

Discussed in detail were the radiation effects of the Japanese Fukushima disaster and the fashion in which its fallout has been covered up both by the Japanese and the American governments.

Featured guests on “The Real Deal” program hosted by Fetzer included:

Leuren Moret, an independent geoscientist who has done expert studies on the Fukushima disaster and radiation problems around the world including depleted uranium, and

Dr. Majia Nadesan, PhD., a professor of communication in the Division of Social and Behavioral Sciences in the New College of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences at Arizona State University, who has studied Fukushima extensively.

“What they had to tell us smacks of politics and public relations and is profoundly disturbing,” noted Fetzer.

The segment included an introduction by Major William Fox (former USMCR commissioned officer), who, said Fetzer, “was instrumental in arranging this interview. His key point is that the first line of defense to handle any major crisis is accurate information. Tragically, not only has accurate information been deliberately withheld from Americans regarding the Fukushima crisis, but they have also been steadily fed disinformation.”

Rather than reproducing the entire interview in The Iconoclast, this link takes readers to the Veterans Today website and Part 1 of the interview. Part 2 can be accessed once on the site.
