The cesium deception: Why the mainstream media is mostly reporting iodine levels, not radioactive cesium

Virtually all the numbers you're seeing about the radioactivity coming out of Fukushima are based oniodine-131which only has a half-life of 8 days, not the far more dangerouscesium-137which has a half-life of30 years. So while the mainstream media reports that "radiation levels are falling rapidly" from the 7.5 million times reading taken a few days ago, what they're not telling you is that the cesium-137 radioactivity will take30 yearsjust to fall by 50 percent.

It's the great global cover-up in all this: What happens to all the radioactive cesium being dumped into the ocean right now? It doesn't just burn itself out in a few months like iodine-131. This stuff sticks around forcenturies.

As part of the cover story,the FDAnow says it will test "all importedfoodproducts coming fromJapan" (http://ecocentric.blogs.time.com/20...). This claim is, of course, ridiculous on its face. Even without thisFukushimaemergency in the works, theFDAonly tests a tiny fraction of all the food imported into theUSA. This agency has no existing infrastructure under which it could test ALL the food being imported from Japan. The very idea is ludicrous.

As this ABC News story reveals, the FDA says it's "really stretched" just to inspect a meretwo percentof imported food:http://abcnews.go.com/Health/radiat...
