Chernobyl "liquidators"

LISTEN NOW

This Week’s Featured Interview:
Alison Katz, a psychologist and sociologist heads Independent WHO, the international watchdog group drawing attention to the World Health Organization’s failure in its duty to protect those populations who are victims of radioactive contamination.  The group has held a vigil in front of WHO headquarters in Geneva, Switzerland, five days a week, 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., since April 26, 2007 – the 21st anniversary of the Chernobyl nuclear disaster.  Originally recorded for Nuclear Hotseat #118, September 17, 2013.

UPDATES to this week’s interview:

• Dr. Margaret Chan is still Director General of the WHO.
• In 2014, UN Special Reporteur on the Right to Health Anand Grover, referenced in the interview, was replaced by Dr. Dainius Pūras, whose specialty is mental health and, to date, has not published anything on nuclear matters.
• The 2013 Arnie Gunderson interview for Nuclear Hotseat #117 on what he’d do if he were in charge at Fukushima is available HERE.

The biggest Conflict of Interests of all time – mutantdaisys

And so it comes to pass. We have now reached the point where ‘neutrality’ or an ‘unbiased’ viewpoint can be bought, edited or suppressed with agreements made between two public agencies. One of the best example of this is the agreement struck on 28 May 1959 between the World Health Organisation (WHO) and the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA). The effect of this agreement has been to give the IAEA an effective veto on any actions by the WHO that relate in any way to nuclear power, and so prevent the WHO from doing their proper job in investigating and warning of the dangers of nuclear radiation on human health...

The crime of Chernobyl – a model for Fukushima - IndependentWHO

(February 2014) :: For a quarter of a century a systematic crime against humanity has been perpetrated by people in senior positions at the heart of Europe. The people living in Western Europe, so advanced technologically, remain indifferent and largely disinformed. In order to preserve the consensus around the military and civilian nuclear industry, the nuclear lobby and the official medical establishment have, for the past 26 years, knowingly condemned millions of human guinea pigs to an experiment on their bodies with new diseases in the vast laboratory provided by the territories contaminated by Chernobyl. Children are being treated like laboratory animals, under observation from French and German scientists, and French NGO’s like the CEPN, Mutadis Consultants, ETHOS and CORE, who must take their share of the responsibility. (Translator’s note: CEPN is the Centre d’étude sur l’Evaluation de la Protection dans le domaine Nucléaire ; Mutadis, ETHOS and CORE are all offshoots of the French nuclear industry, financed either through Electricité de France or the Autorité de Sureté Nucléaire.)

The same fate awaits the Japanese people and their children living in areas contaminated by the Fukushima disaster because the same strategy is being put in place in Japan with the same players, the same pseudo-scientific justifications and under the aegis of the same authorities...

Nuclear Hotseat #119: Joseph Mangano Shreds IAEA's Straitjacket on WHO's Radiation Reports | Nuclear Hotseat

INTERVIEW:  Special feature interview with Joseph Mangano of Radiation and Public Health Project (www.radiation.org) on how the International Atomic Energy Agency’s straitjacketed and muzzled “epidemiology” makes it impossible for the World Health Organization to ever present honest information on the dangers of nuclear radiation.  Based on an analysis of the IAEA’s fatally flawed “science” by the late Dr. Rosalie Bertell.  Infuriating, jaw-dropping — and the underlying reason why the nuclear-industrial complex continues to get away with putting the future of all planetary life at risk. 

PLUS:

• Activists rise up against NRC waste “confidence,” proposed nuclear waste dump on Lake Huron, and the EPA’s dramatically weakened radiation guides – the New (Gina) McCarthyism?
• Japanese PM Shinzo Abe-Baby has ongoing “Mission Accomplished” complications from his “The situation is under control!” claims to the International Olympic Committee;
  • And isn’t it odd that Russia, China and Korea are doing a better job of protecting their citizens than the US?

Nuclear Hotseat #118: The WHO/IAEA Unholy Alliance and its Lies about Int'l Nuclear Health Stats

How the World Health Organization came under the domination of the pro-nuclear International Atomic Energy Agency – the first of two exclusive Nuclear Hotseat reports on the unholy alliance that underlies our global misunderstandings of the dangers of nuclear radiation.

INTERVIEW:  Special full-length interview with Alison Katz of Independent WHO on the history, politics and criminal negligence of the World Health Organization.  She is a sociologist and psychologist who worked for WHO for 18 years and now is a spokesperson for the organization that wants WHO to do its job regarding nuclear dangers and international public health.  Even if you think you understand this issue, you will be shocked by the specific instances where WHO has abdicated its power.  You’ll also be inspired by an international tactic Katz proposes that has the potential to turn this issue around.
