Ms Kazuko ITO, Secretary General, Human Rights Now: What we saw of protection of people after the [Fukushima] nuclear plant accident, it’s shocking but we found Japan is much worse than Chernobyl accident response of the government of the former Soviet Union and Russia.

Only solution is to replace the horrid plants with safe non-nuclear ones. This will create jobs, and hope. And needs to start now, worldwide.

"..Jim Lecinski, VP for U.S. sales and service at Google, presented a thought-provoking idea that he calls the "Zero Moment of Truth."
It's a modification of the P&G marketing mantra conceived in the golden A.G. Lafley era, when the packaged-goods marketer evangelized on "winning at the two moments of truth" — the first at the point of purchase and the second when consumers use the product.
Now "The Zero Moment of Truth" — or ZMOT — is potentially disruptive thinking for marketers…"

The precursers to mindshare were in place long before chernobyl.
The data was there from the beginning, but the coverup, disinformation, and discrediting started after the people started getting wise to the dangers of all things nuclear.

it is an interesting set of videos with few views.. they get more hits from incredulous enenews readers .. lol!
download any favourites for remixing is my advice… not that i want to encourage anyone to have fun with these videos.. i mean it wouldnt be fair that all that production time being made into a comedy series or something…
make sure you work around the copyright laws and start a unique you tube/other account..
i am a bit busy on other stuff or i would give it a go.. but my video skills and software is poor so i will leave it to the proffessionals! lol! hope someone goes for it… snicker..

The Japanese leadership response to the radiation fall out from Fukushima will make better sense when one understands the same response was taken after Hiroshima and Nagasaki. And, the victims of that radiation often became outcasts, expected to hide their illness and infirmities so that life could go on as normal. For the greater good, they were expected to be silent and hidden. That radiation was not of their doing and unavoidable. Todays radiation victims are asked to volunteer – the sickest to hide, the newly exposed to pretend all is well.

This goes to show communism is actually a better proposition than capitalism when it comes to protecting people from corporate greed and the government "laisser faire" attitude.
I've never seen a people as ignorant about their surroundings as the Japanese. They live in a devastated country but it's as if nothing had ever happened. People happily eat sushi, seaweed and mushrooms, putting them carefully in their children's Bento (pack lunch).
The thing about the Japanese is that they hate confrontation and things that create discomfort. Be it a conversation or looking at reality. That's why Japanese TV has some of the world stupidest shows for the best part of the day and all evening, dumbing down a population that has already been robbed of its intelligence from an early age by the cram school system.
Sorry about this rant, I do actually feel sorry for what happened and the people left behind, but I wish people would wake up "en masse" and topple this incompetent and corrupt government that has besieged Japan for far too long.

We need free market capitalism and creativity back in America not communism.

agreed yogda. It's disheartening how we continually come back to this discussion; whether one system is better than another. What's even more depressing is how many confuse corporate fascism with capitalism. When you factor that the Soviets ordered thousands of military personnel into to that smoldering death machine, you may understand that centralization – in any form – never served the interest of the people…

Free market capitalism does not and will not exist, because they are a contradiction in terms.

Hi jonjon, I think you should inform yourself more on past and ongoing crimes against the people in communist regimes like Russia, China, North Korea before praising them for taking care of their population…especially environmental crimes….Mayak, Polygone, the river Tetscha…I'm sure things are a bit more complex than you're trying to tell.

perhaps jonjon should secure a copy of "The Black Book of Communism" [Publication Date: October 15, 1999 | ISBN-10: 0674076087 | ISBN-13: 978-0674076082 ]
"…this international bestseller plumbs recently opened archives in the former Soviet bloc to reveal the actual, practical accomplishments of Communism around the world: terror, torture, famine, mass deportations, and massacres. Astonishing in the sheer detail it amasses, the book is the first comprehensive attempt to catalogue and analyze the crimes of Communism over seventy years."
If you can survive the first half of this book, be prepared another set of horrors under the Chinese Communists. They even touch upon the issue as to why the West (America and western Europeans) were never apprised of these atrocities. Those who make a point of pulling back the curtain, know exactly why…

@B&B: in truth, it's extremely depressing. The accounts of what these people went through (as compiled by the NKVD etal) are harrowing. This is one of the few books that exposes what happens under centralized governments. I'll leave it to you to ponder why we've not been made privy to these revelations…

There should be a bottom line for any system: The earth must be healthy. Thereafter enterprises may use creativity for the good of all. Now Capitalism as well as Communism or any other ism have failed miserably. Correct yourselves so the bottom line is restored.

In a way its good that the -isms come up on the board here.
In chernobyl Sovjet they tried to keep quiet for some days, until the radioactivity reached other countries, and it was simple not possible to deny it. Then they made large efforts to actually make something about the catastrophe. But here in the so called free world, there are even more silence about these catastrophes. Using the influence over media making reports as if there are some small problems, when there are four nuclear reactors exploding.
And reports from Three mile island, has been that there was just a minor problem, and there was no leakage. That was what was reported than. Now I hear that there are lots of people dying from cancer in that region. And that it had been a meltdown there too. With consequence fallout.
No it is the same lying in both systems. Maybe the soviet system was more open when the catastrophe was a fact. In Japan they are still lying, and will continue lying as much as they can, it seems to. Even the large demonstrations that was there earlier this month, wasn't visible in Japanese media at first. And these were the largest demonstrations in Japan in a lifetime. The so called free world – that could just be free oppression as well.

First please explain where the "free enterprise capitalist system" is in North America save for the illegal drug trade and the illegal underground economy? All legitimate businesses must maneuver through a maze of taxes rules and bureaucratic red tape. Certain industries such as nuclear, get heavily subsidized by government and wouldn't even exist if they had to survive without the government teat.
Nuclear energy produces pollution that is invisible and may not hurt or kill until years after exposure. So easy to lie. But this is human nature, nothing to do with communism, capitalism or any other ism. Call it human nature. Just like when my 3 yr old blames my 2 yr old for something she did. Really these big shot government and industrial nuclear officials are no better then my 2 year old boy. He says "I drive" I ask do you have your drivers license? He smiles and replies "Yesh"
