Mainichi Shimbun via EX-SKF, Jan. 10, 2012:
- Japan Coast Guard isn’t sure what it is but it may be a whale
- Floating near the Aomi Container Wharf in Koto-ku
- Right across from the landfill where the Tokyo Metropolitan government has been dumping the radioactive ashes (EX-SKF: “No correlation expressed or implied”)
- Some Japanese are getting nervous, not because of radiation but because the March 11, 2011 earthquake was preceded by beaching of whales

Not my job to call a spade a spade or a whale a whale. Must follow the chain of command and respect the hierarchy.

It’s one of those rare upside down whales, the most dangerous kind.

When are people going to wake up and start taking this seriously?! When will the governments of the world do something? They are killing themselves, their children, innumerable other species, tainting the largest ocean on the planet, and sending their pollution across an entire hemisphere. Ten months of this is already too much. When will “grown ups” step up and deal with it in an intelligent, coordinated way, instead of these short-sighted little bureaucrats and business men who only want to sweep everything under the rug?
Things have to change . . .

There comes a time when the war is lost, but the generals can’t stop the fight, because they know that in the end they will be killed.
At that point it is day-to-day survival for them, since there are masses of soldiers to be killed before them, they simply allow the masses to be slaughtered, so they can have a few more days of life.
Same thing here.

Howdy L335,
You said:
“When will “grown ups” step up and deal with it in an intelligent, coordinated way, instead of these short-sighted little bureaucrats and business men who only want to sweep everything under the rug?”
We already have…stepped up. The problem is, not enough have…stepped up. Most people are caught up in the matrix too hypnotically. They are on the DRUG of TV and the propaganda machine media. Until these things are taken out of the equation, and the profit driven politicians also, there is really no hope of getting the addicted world to turn the drug TV off.
Of course there is the ring-shot bet on an EMP that will bring us all down to the equality of what you know to survive on the ground…live on nothing…and wipe yer arse with leaves that we can hope for.
Maybe they will “step up” then?
Report Comment
Wait!
(NO EDIT OPTION)
Not hoping for an EMP and no one is, but it is possible.
Will it matter who steps up then if it does happen?
How many reactors melt down world-wide?
And where are those elitist bunkers any ways?

So they can just burn the whale and dump it in the old lady that swallowed the bird to catch the spider that wiggled and wiggled and tickled inside her. But i don’t know why she swallowed that fly, perhaps we’ll die…

Why the heck don’t they just get close to it (by boat) to check if it’s a whale or not? If they think it’s okay to dump countless tons of radioactive ashes there, it shouldn’t also be a problem to get into the water and check this thing out..

This has gone too far, over the edge to the other side. The fight against evil and man’s madness has been lost and it is not a good sign.

I agree, Fukushima has changed the focus…who cares about global warming, ozone holes and the rest….when every inch of the planet is quickly becoming uninhabitable. The whale was probably a victim of an attack by La nina and el nino together…now they are working together.
Report Comment
We still care about global warming. I don’t know anyone who has stopped to worry and work against it. But Fukushima contamination is less known because it is not reported enough in the mass media.

I agree. FUKU TRUMPS everything! The Euro debt crisis seems like last years news,…ho hummm, Yawn,….

Dear Still: Your instincts are tight as usual. I believe since monetary value is really an electronic confidence game and that economic crises, therefore, are contrived and top-down created and controlled without revolutionary intervention by citizens who always generate every speck of real value that the MSM “news” (agonizingly boring because it’s obvious to the collective subconscious that it’s BS) is just a distraction story. There are so many things, inevitably falling apart due to the absolute ecological unsustainability of extant exploitation based status quo world socioeconomic geopolitical systems that the pinheaded titular clique of billionaires/corporate patriarchs (even if female here and there) and despots enmeshed with miltiary/covert leaderships are spazzing, flopping and lashing about trying to keep us all distracted so we don’t lower the boom on their 40,000-year hey dey of hyper Utopian (it’s capitalism, not socialism that is Utopian) aberrant monarchial (at the least) dominance. What will replace the billionaire/corporate/military ruling clique of the world is, as inevitably as the consequences of pursuing idiotic capitalist status quos (nuclear failures/global warming/mass extinctions) will be direct democracy, absolutely non-exploitative, sharing-based, subsistence living, never ever again allowing the greedy or martial human to rule over the needs of more than 100,000,000 million non-human species and currently 7B humans.

Hey, how about that? Now instead of the whaling ‘research’ ships going out and harpooning whales, they can just drag in the dead and dying ones that are right there near Tokyo…
It would be hard for me to believe that fish, dolphins and whales can swim through the high radiation currents coming off FUKU and NOT be affected somehow, including whales.

But Agr,
There is no radiation.
If you think there is you will get depressed and be a bad negative influence on your neighbors sun tanning in the back yard.

So all the radioactive dumping into Tokyo Bay seems to have started killing many more things than the Japanese figured it would! This way they are not dumping it into the “ocean” yet it is making it’s way into the Pacific Ocean…
This is just more reason to demand that Japan STOP using nuclear,
…since they are now Global Radioactive Polluters!

Dear CaptD: D’accord! (agreed)

I havent been able to find it but there was a report the whales were migrating farther out than normal because of the contamination, anyone see some reports of the changed migration patterns?
Report Comment
My wife is Japanese. She says the original Japanese news story says nothing about radioactive ash, says the whale was already dead and towed into Tokyo Bay by the ship that hit it

Hi isogoodhumans, thank you for that info! I would be so happy if more people understanding Japanese would post here….The google translations are sometimes bringing up more questions than answers, lol.
