Government purchase of 14 million iodine doses points to silent Fukushima
meltdown preparation.

Following the revelation that The Department of Health and Human Services has
ordered 14 million doses of potassium iodide to be available by no later
then the first of February, it is easy to see that the same federal government
responsible for silently raising the allowable limits of radiation in the food
supply and turning off key radiation counters positioned in the west coast may
now silently be preparing for a future Fukushima meltdown.
The same type of Fukushima plant meltdown that has been
predicted by leading scientists, such as those who spoke out against Fukushima’s
dangers while attending the scientific symposium at the University of Alberta
just a few months ago. Scientists like David Suzuki went
on record in stating that Fukushima is just an earthquake away from
devastating Japan and swallowing other nations with its radioactive fallout.
During the conference, Suzuki said:
“I have seen a paper which says that if in fact the fourth plant goes under
in an earthquake and those rods are exposed, it’s bye bye Japan and everybody on
the west coast of North America should evacuate.”
And Suzuki is not the only one with major concerns. In fact, Suzuki is
perhaps one of the very few who actually received media attention due to his
celebrity status as a recipient of 16 significant academic awards and host of
the popular CBC Television program entitled ‘The Nature of Things’. Yale
University professor Charles Perrow has voiced similar concerns in a telling piece
entitled ‘Fukushima Forever’, which highlights the very serious threat of
nuclear meltdown as a result of human error when it comes to removing the
plant’s spent fuel rods.
A danger that the United States government certainly recognizes as legitimate
based on the analysis of top experts, and undoubtedly is silently preparing for
behind the scenes.
Perrow writes:
“Much more serious is the danger that the spent fuel rod pool at the top of
the nuclear plant number four will collapse in a storm or an earthquake, or in a
failed attempt to carefully remove each of the 1,535 rods and safely transport
them to the common storage pool 50 meters away. Conditions in the unit 4 pool,
100 feet from the ground, are perilous, and if any two of the rods touch it
could cause a nuclear reaction that would be uncontrollable. The radiation
emitted from all these rods, if they are not continually cool and kept separate,
would require the evacuation of surrounding areas including Tokyo. Because of
the radiation at the site the 6,375 rods in the common storage pool could not be
continuously cooled; they would fission and all of humanity will be threatened,
for thousands of years.”
And silently stockpiling iodine is certainly the way that The Department of
Health and Human Services would prepare for such an event. As of this morning, a
government source has told me that this purchase is indeed bizarre given the
quantity and delivery time frame (requiring a whopping 14 million doses by
February 1st), and it goes alongside preparations we have seen in the past where
the official response will likely play off the mega purchase as a ‘routine bulk
acquisition with no real urgency or threat’.
The reality is that even getting a hold of low quality potassium iodide,
which I would not ever personally take over a higher quality form of pure
iodine, is becoming difficult as the population becomes aware of Fukushima’s
expansive dangers. Many manufacturers are now stockpiling raw iodine and holding
on to the element as a form of investment with the knowledge that Fukushima may
very well meltdown in the coming months. For this reason, we have had a very
hard time securing our nascent iodine
formula that many in the field of preparedness have been stockpiling for
quite some time.
