Fukushima Radiation Covering the Earth (human guinea pigs) Australia 60 Minutes Report VIDEO

August 26, 2011

Australia 60 minutes episode about Fukushima.  The Japanese people are human guinea pigs.  Radiation is covering the Earth and an Unspeakable impact will be felt upon all humanity and the Earth.

How can anyone in this world say Nuclear energy is clean?  One accident makes the whole world toxic and kills people and the Earth. 

It is so hard to comprehend this is really happening.   Australia's 60 minutes should be commended for discussing this, especially since it seems most media around the world has made Fukushima a forbidden subject and it is never spoken by name any more in Mainstream Media.
