Map of Nuclear Explosions on the Earth from 1945-1998

I love the smell of enriched Uranium in the morning.

It smells like mutation.

2k+, wtf

how do the justify these "tests" or whatever?

To be fair, it was over a period of 60 years.

And government never cares about anything but power, so ecosystems and people and side effects be damned.

And people wonder why there is so much cancer nowadays !!!

Thanks,i was looking for this for awhile now.

whoa

You're quite welcome.

I was aware of the numbers, but to see them represented graphically makes one hideously aware of the scope.

And, folks worry about Fukashima! Sheeze...

wouldnt SW USA be unlivable by now? do they have more cancer and birth defects than the rest of usa?

All of us that were around when they did the above ground test back then are supposed to have a fair amount of Strontium-90 in our bones from what I've read. I haven't noticed any ill effects though so far.

Just watched the movie "Threads" tonight...feel kinda cheated I never got to feel the warm glow from a mushroom cloud on my face. Oh well there's always tomorrow.

That is because the screaming Left lied about the effects of radioactivity in an attempt to get the US to abandon the one mechanism we have of countering Soviet/Chinese numeric superiority: Nukes.

Yeah I just bought that and watched it about 6 months ago.

Feel-good film of the year.

Do a double feature with Threads and The Road.

My father was stationed in Nevada just after the Korean Police Action. While there he and a buddy of his got caught too close to one of the explosions while retreiving a truck. The trigger pusher forgot they were still out there, or maybe they didn't. In any case pops, who is 85 this year, said the heat was unbearable and when they got up from the ground their skin was smoking. FUCK! I don't know about any adverse health problems this would have caused as it wasn't the first or last exposure he had but he can't wear a watch because they all stop functioning next to his skin. Other than that he is one strong mother and can still kick ass if needed. No cancer, nothing.

Wow, that's amazing. My aunt lived in Nevada with her daughters back when they were testing and I never heard of any cancer among them. I guess maybe it's like the agenda with DDT. They wanted a ban because it would further their goals.

Oh gee...the road bummed me out. That was one dreary depressing piece of film.

^ Super powers, just like we all expected ^

So they could waste money and productive capacity rather than distribute it amongst everyone so only a few benefit from the economy rather than many?

Read Orwell's 1984 paying attention to the rationale behind perpetual wars (there was a purpose beyond just riling the masses).

So what did the audio in that video just program my brain to do, kill John Lennon?

do you really believe that this is the only way a planet can be peacefully run? if we get all the murdering idiots out of power and create a peaceful and honest that doesn't cater to disgusting religious pathologies, society we wouldn't need all that bullshit.

Of course not.

good. so how do you feel about the old world order that is trying to stomp humanity into the ground?

MAD country

From Hiroshima to Iraq, 61 years of Uranium Wars


“…The blueprint for depleted uranium radioactive poison gas weaponry – dirty bombs, dirty missiles and dirty bullets – was contained in a declassified memorandum(9) dated Oct. 30, 1943. It was addressed to Gen. Leslie Groves, who was head of the Manhattan Project, the U.S. effort to build atomic bombs in World War II…The recommendation for development of depleted uranium as kinetic energy penetrators was never mentioned in the Groves memo. It was specifically for depopulation… ”


A suicidal, genocidal, omnicidal course

The conduct of secret nuclear wars since 1991, through the use of depleted uranium weaponry by the United States and Great Britain with their allies, has taken place in the Middle East, the former Yugoslavia, Afghanistan(2) and Lebanon.(3) It has been carried out for the express purpose of destroying the public health and mutilating the genetic future of vast populations in oil rich and/or pipeline regions.

Carpet and grid bombing with depleted uranium weaponry in Iraq, Yugoslavia and Afghanistan has guaranteed permanent radioactive terrain contamination. The recent discovery that U.S. depleted uranium bombs dropped by Israel on Lebanon in 2006 contained enriched uranium(4,5) suggests covert testing of fourth generation nuclear weapons.

The United States and its allies are fully aware that this weaponry violates the Geneva and Hague Conventions and the 1925 Geneva Poison Gas Protocol.(6) It meets the definition of WMD in the U.S. Code(7) in two out of three categories. And its use violates U.S. military law.(8) since the U.S. is a signatory to The Hague and Geneva Conventions.

The blueprint for depleted uranium radioactive poison gas weaponry – dirty bombs, dirty missiles and dirty bullets – was contained in a declassified memorandum(9) dated Oct. 30, 1943. It was addressed to Gen. Leslie Groves, who was head of the Manhattan Project, the U.S. effort to build atomic bombs in World War II.

The recommendation for development of depleted uranium as kinetic energy penetrators was never mentioned in the Groves memo. It was specifically for depopulation.

The Groves memo makes it clear that in 1943, U.S. scientists recommended using radioactive poison gas weapons in order to contaminate the air, water, soil, food, environment and the blood of exposed populations. The long-term contamination is permanent, since uranium-238 has a half-life of 4.5 billion years, making contaminated areas uninhabitable for eternity.

For populations that must continue to live in contaminated areas, the long-term effects are lingering illnesses and mutilation of their DNA. Widespread depleted uranium contamination of DNA in populations results in the potential mutilation of future generations. Mutations induced in the DNA of a single egg or sperm which form a fertilized egg are expressed and repeated in every cell of the developing organism, and defects are passed on to all future generations(11).

Not only are U.S. and allied soldiers exposed and civilian populations genocidally targeted, but the depleted uranium pollution is now global.(12,13) In reality, we are all Gulf War veterans.

Depleted uranium poison gas weaponry, used on a regional scale, meets U.S. National Security Council goals as stated in the “Global 2000 Report: Vision of a Gloomy World” (1980).(14) This report recommended that depopulation in third world countries was imperative to the U.S. government purpose of securing mineral and other strategic resources.

Global atmospheric pollution from depleted uranium particulates will result in massive depopulation on a global scale. By increasing death rates and decreasing birth rates globally, more than 2 billion people will be eliminated.

Depleted uranium is the ideal weapon to bring about the New World Order, which is global depopulation. In just a few years it has turned Planet Earth into a Death Star.

Long read but very interesting. [link to gothinkblog.com]

5 stars for your avatar/handle combo!

That's not true.

U-238 has a half life of only 4.468 billion years.

Don't exaggerate.

It's only a matter of time before Neutron-B (hint: not a UK rap artist) touches down somewhere...
