Fears slowed SPEEDI info, The Daily Yomiuri, Dec. 30, 2011:
The System for Prediction of Environmental Emergency Dose Information (SPEEDI)–the government computer system that projects the dispersal of radioactive substances–was designed to pinpoint which areas should be evacuated after a nuclear accident. However, the government initially withheld SPEEDI’s projections after the Fukushima nuclear crisis erupted, claiming that releasing the data “would cause unnecessary panic.” [...]
The Education, Science, Culture, Sports and Technology Ministry oversees SPEEDI. [...] However, the ministry decided such data would be unavailable due to the loss of power at the plant following the massive March 11 earthquake. [...]
The ministry came under growing pressure from the media to reveal the SPEEDI results. On March 15, the ministry had made projections for what would happen if all radioactive material was discharged from the nuclear plant. However, it did not release the figures for fear of panicking the public. [...]

Lies are the mainstay of the nuke industry
I have summarized some of the lies here, please check it out.
Also don’t be shy about visiting sponsors on some of the “free” nuke sites/blogs, it helps fund the effort to eliminate nukes from our earth. Our only earth.

This is reason in and of itself not to have nuclear power anymore. If people can’t depend on a “reliable” government like Japan’s to let them know where radiation is going during a nuclear accident, who can? Why would anyone want to buy property near a nuclear power plant after this? The industry shows no responsibility and won’t be forced to pay for anything because it bankrupts entire governments.

now the chinese on the other hand were able to to projections from march? how that work?
from the report
““In March 2011, RSMC Beijing did a test to check if the contact information of all members in RAII was available. The results showed that many faxes, emails, phones were no longer available. As a result, in the Fukushima emergency response services, South Korea, Macao, and other national meteorological services sent requests to ask for RSMC Beijing product.
At present, the numerical weather prediction models and diffusion models used in the RSMCs are different. As a result, the study on the comparison among the products of all RSMCs will be of great benefit on the emergency response services of all RSMCs. If RSMCs could share the comparison data, the model might be improved more efficiently. In addition, If RSMCs could share observation data, the research and the services might be improved greatly.””

IAEA UPDATE
heres what the IAEA have been doing this month in response to breaking news on contamination hot spots in japan
December 2011
•The IAEA implements a technical cooperation project on marine environment following the Fukushima nuclear accident.
(control of information)
•A statement from IAEA Director General Yukiya Amano welcomes the announcement from Japan that the reactors at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station have achieved a “cold shutdown condition” and are in a stable state.
(i have no idea??)
•Nuclear techniques are being widely used in the global fight against avian influenza.
(possible outbreak of chest/lung complaints due to particulate density, need somethng to blame?)
•Support for IAEA’s initiative against cancer continues in 2011 with Member States and partner organizations stepping up contributions to the Programme of Action on Cancer Therapy (PACT).
(back up plan for futur employment if nuclear plants cease operation)
yep! a busy and succesful month indeed!!

should read ICRP not ISRP
Report Comment
Arclight, have you read the material explaining how the IAEA basically dictates policy to the WHO? How the ICRP basically reports whatever the IAEA decides upon? Dr. Busby talks about this. I can’t find the well researched article I’d hoped to cite here, but here’s a link to discussion on this:
http://tekknorg.wordpress.com/2011/03/21/iaea-and-icrp-the-alara-principle/
Here’s a quote:
“And the IAEA does have a gag contract with the WHO since the 1950ies which does the WHO not allow to publish other numbers concerning radiation desease and death numbers, than those validated by the IAEA. And the IAEA ignores the link between desease / death and high / low radiation. Although it is proven.
Evidence HERE
Since 1929 genetic and cancer creating effects of radioactivity are known.
In 1946 Hermann J. Mueller got for his experiments the nobelprice: Source
So, more atomic power plants means: Less sorrow for the operators and the industry – if something happens ….”
Report Comment
more info and links here
“It is important to bear in mind that the IAEA is dedicated to fostering the spread of nuclear power. That commitment is at the very begining of its constitution.
For fully half a century the WHO has been subservient to IAEA in matters of radiation and health. Under the WHO/IAEA Agreement (WHA12-40) of 28 May 1959, the IAEA has assumed a power of veto over WHO’s activities. Similar “agreements” constrain other UN agencies.
An international campaign opposes this conflict of interest, calling for WHO to be independent of the nuclear lobby”

If the Japanese whaling fleet claims that they are doing ‘Research’ , then a required test ought to be to test various whale parts and organs for radiation, and plutonium and publish any findings … perhaps they will stop whaling when the whales reach the 100 BQ per kilogram limit …
I read the reason they were dropping the radioactivity allowed in food from 500 bq kg , to 100, was because it was only ‘Safe’ to eat it at the higher levels for 1 year … , maybe they were secretely hoping that it would just go away, in a years time …
So frustrating to have everything downplayed all the time… The truth will come out !!

Here you go, Mack.
FUKUSHIMA DREAMIN
On a sunny spring day, Cherry Blossom smell, an earthquake cracked open the bowels of Hell.
A poisonous stew of leaked radiated slime is changing the planet til the end of time.
Google Chernobyl, Three Mile Island.
Open your eyes and stop your damn smiling!
You can think what you want, and do what you do.
Just pull your head out yer ass, find out what’s killin you.
Chorus
Fukushima! Malignant and warm.
Fukushima! Non-stop dirty bomb.
Fukushima! Ain’t no mystery,
It’s the biggest cover-up in our history.
The Ostrich don’t know, puts his head in the dirt. He can’t see radiation, so he thinks it can’t hurt.
The whole Human race got the Atomic blues, but you won’t ever hear it on the mainstream news.
When your babies get flippers, and harelips and such, it ain’t no big deal, cuz it still don’t hurt much.
Your food will start glowin, your breathin gets slower, but the bottle just can’t hold the Genie no more.
Chorus
Don’t give it a thought when your lymph nodes all swell, and you’re pukin and shittin and weaker than hell.
Ignore bloody noses or a tumor or three, settle back in your shelter, watch your flat screen TV.
American Idol……the New Jersey Shore….Corporations are the pimps, and we’re all dyin whores.
Just remember while you’re payin your radiation dues, they never even warned you on the evening news.
Chorus

Good idea – somebody needs to show these photos to citizens of cities near every nuclear power plant, including Washington D.C.
Show americans that your homeowner’s policy doesn’t include protection from nuclear disaster.
Show the Oceanfront property owners in California, Washington, Oregon and BC that it will be their responsibility to remediate nuclear waste from their property when the tsunami stuff lands.
And any property devaluation is theirs to pay for – not the insurance company’s. That’s probably a good message for LA and Orange county Oceanfront property owners, who are among the wealthiest people in the world.

Also, we need someone to do a study showing how much health care costs are going to rise as a result of Fukushima.
Then warn all the businesses who provide health care how much their health insurance costs are going to rise – and how much lost productivity they are going to see.

Of course it is not okay to keep quite about a known danger,
on the other Side i can understand them very well!
I have my own counting System for the Fukushima related Death Toll and nearly all of them died
because of the Evacuation!
(the majority was very old,
sick People
who stayed in Hospitals,
Hospices and Retirement Houses)
I am at ca. 450 People!
I estimate that when the Evacuation happened
in a mode of Panic we could add ca. 25-50%
or even more,
do not forget that there was no open Road
and everything was extremely dangerous
because of the EQ-Damage!
There are horrible Stories from the Helpers
who has to abandoned trapped People because of the Evacuation Order,
