Containers from Japan seized in Netherlands due to radioactivity, Kyodo, May 10, 2011:
Health authorities in the Netherlands said Tuesday they have detected radioactive substances from 19 containers from Japan at a Rotterdam port, of which five have been temporarily seized as the amounts of the hazardous materials exceed the permissible level. [...]
Japan Containers Show Radiation in Rotterdam, Bloomberg, May 10, 2011:
Dutch authorities have found traces of radiation on 19 containers originating from Japan [...]
Five of the containers, scanned on arrival at the Port of Rotterdam, were quarantined because the level of contamination was above the permissible threshold, the Dutch Food and Consumer Product Safety Authority said on its website today. The other 14 boxes were cleared after further inspection, it said.
“Whether this is an exceptional incident with a low impact is difficult to say,” said Philip Damas, an analyst at Drewry Shipping Consultants Ltd. in London. [...]

Does anyone know if the U.S. Customs or other agency is testing for radiation on containers from Japan in the age if the new black plague.
Report Comment
No, they re-calibrated radiation sensors at ports of entry so they would not be set off by the radiation from Japan. Very soon after the event, radiation sensors at Chicago-O’Hare customs was going off on passengers’ luggage from Japan.

the eu also silently raised levels for food, and perhaps consumer products, that i don’t know.

I used to work for a retail outlet warehouse which recieved overseas containers directly from Japan and China via truck from L.A. ports. This is in the midwest.
If you have been inside a Nuke plant, which I have, when you leave, personnel check you for radioactive “fleas”. I was just wondering if they do the same for import containers in this new age of the black death.

If they are handling hot stuff, I posted rules for this and they have the right to know or not do the job ! Federal guides.

Exactly. And once government workers sue successfully for being put at risk in their jobs that may prove then the Govt is negligent in not providing reasonable measures (testing etc) to protect their workforce. This might lay the road for the citizens to prove their negligence lawsuits where the government also put them in harm’s way for either withholding information or being negligent in refusing to test for contaminants.

In other words, we can assume the Dutch and others are following an international agreement on releases of radioactivity levels on import containers but we can also assume the United States government is not. Correct??

Until someone proves there is a problem, then they will raise the acceptable limit !

Interesting. Can you provide a source of data that brought you to this conclusion?
xdrfox is beginning to look a bit suspicious with it’s claims.
I really like the part where you state “but were rained on in fallout or rain !”
Now… did rain (H2O) deposit the contaminate or, did the contaminate simply fall freely from the heavens above.
You are showing traits of a dis-info, mis-info troll type entity.

If our govt admits that traces of radioactive stuff is dangerous, they’ll in effect be admitting to the horrible things they’re doing with depleted uranium weapons. And I don’t think they want to do that, since it may even be worse than this mess. I’m pretty sure the amount of du used in the middle east is much higher than the amount of fuel at Fukushima. And that stuff burns up when it goes through something like steel, and who knows how much is circulating in the environment.

5 containers…5 little containers..just 5 small containers out of the 20 ships a day from japan into Rotterdam and Antwerp..
each container ship carries anything from 2900-15,000 containers..the impounded stock is a tokenistic gesture to put peoples mind at ease.

Your post is interesting as it points out SO MUCH FOR THE HALF LIFE excuses! If the containers were found today to be EXCEEDING THE LIMITS on these containers which left Japan A MONTH AGO, then why would they test to be EXCEEDING THE LIMITS if the half-lifes make everything all nicey nicey? That means that the half life theories are weak for our safety or that the combined exposures (wind, rain, ocean, contact etc) are EXCEEDING SAFE LEVELS and showing up on containers as such today.
Report Comment
Good point! also the elements being measured are only a couple from the cocktail-others have half lives that may as well be ‘forever’.

Yeah I’d like an example where you can see ANY – even ONE of the poisons as becoming safer quickly as we have been sold. I think they should retest the same containers in this story next month to see if it has INCREASED as I suspect is the ongoing onslaught of radiation from multiple sources.
This story contradicts the advisement.

time is big money stupid big amounts of money in shipping..
japan has over 1500 container ships..
The largest of these ships 397-meters long, weight 70,000 tons, are 56 meters wide, 61 meters high and 30 meters deep and can carry 11,000 twenty-foot containers, enough to fill a 44-mile-long train.
so your a little customs man with a geiger counter an electronic device that cannot test for plutonium and even if you could where would you start on a structure this big 1 ship and a few customs men and women.
futile and technically and logistically impossible..

1.The war is worth paying for to the extent of ruining the economy.
2.The nuclear fallout that the US receives is from al-Qaeda..somehow.. even if we have to create a false flag to have it.
As human terrain..the “small people”, any number can be harmed …as we have no value to those that are trying to rule this world, usurp our government, and destroy our country.
And they found such willing helpers at our morally bankrupt government is more than willing to provide.This is the situation in the US and all the major countries.. governments found it more important to pad the pockets of the rich and their own.
Today we have no clear representative of the people.

The intended victim is America as well.

Reports as of last week with the Gov. tighten down on blogers/chatters, IM’er in Japan, speak volumes to me that more and more people are reporting radiation anomalies all over Japan at factory’s and plant’s meaning products going to and from manufacture plants are being contaminate to degrees, fallout, rains, (some products can be left out in weather till ready for whats needed)doses of radio active settlements and it is accumulating. All the products being packaged and boxed and retained to containers on ships where more contaminations settle on the shipping containers !
If ships are in a southern port one day and are contaminated, we can only assume with most confidence that most everything in Japan is being radiated, once, twice or daily !
All we need is a few folks here to go to local chain stores with meters to start checking some products of late placed on store shelfs.
Please advise us of when one has a hit of positive, remember that products from other countries may have components from Japan in them, this may take a bit longer to show up here, look for made products from Japan and in the supply link/chain !
