- Sadly, my hunch is turning out to be correct. It appears
the Columbia space shuttle did, indeed, have radioactive materials on board.
-
- In an interview with National Public Radio last night,
the Sheriff of Nacogdoches, Texas, Thomas Kerss, declared the following:
"There was radioactive material on board." Kerss also declared
that all the debris found by the retrieval operations would be tested for
radioactivity.
-
- So there you have it. And you can imagine the anger that
NASA and U.S. military officials are feeling toward Sheriff Kerss for spilling
the nuclear beans to the public.
-
- But it's the Texans that should be the angriest. They
are the ones who have apparently become unwitting guinea pigs to NASA's
madness. They, quite literally, got dumped on.
-
- The fine folks at the Global Network Against Weapons
and Nuclear Power in Space have issued an official Freedom of Information
Request to NASA seeking the " full disclosure of the type, the amount,
and the purpose of radioactive material on board Columbia."
-
- If the history of NASA is any indication, it won't be
easy getting straight answers. Karl Grossman, the author of the NASA expose,
The Wrong Stuff, has been trying to get information from the space agency
for years and has been frustrated every step of the way.
-
- "They lie as much as they breathe," Grossman
declared on Pacifica Radio's "War & Peace Report" last night.
-
- NASA has a sorry history of cover-ups, deceit, and information
obfuscation, making it akin to a wild goose chase just to get the most
basic information about its missions. NASA's trump card when dodging information
predators is to claim "national security." And given the agencies
close knit relationship with the U.S. military, it's a claim it often gets
away with.
-
- But now that the Columbia shuttle has exploded above
our heads and its super-secret-contents have rained down upon us, the public
must be informed about the dangers we're facing. The nation's health and
security is at risk, and it's NASA that has created this clear and present
danger.
-
- If there is anything left of our democracy, now is the
time for it to be tested. NASA and the U.S. military must not be allowed
to hide behind their convenient sheaths of secrecy. The public must be
informed about the dangers that lie ahead, and NASA must be reined in to
meet the goals of the people.
-
- In recent years the world community has made it clear
that they find U.S. arrogance too much to bear. The U.S. has cancelled
international peace and environmental accords; its used its military might
wherever and whenever it likes; and it's turned its back on billions of
poor, starving, and ill-housed global citizens.
-
- And now the U.S. wants the world's sympathy for the explosion
of a multi-billion-dollar space toy and its seven astronauts. Sorry, Mr.
Bush, but the U.S. is only looking more arrogant by the minute.
-
- Unfortunately, much of the world is all too familiar
with explosions -- they usually mean U.S. military warplanes are on the
horizon. Within a matter of weeks it looks like hundreds and thousands
of additional military explosions will occur in Iraq, Afghanistan, and
maybe even North Korea.
-
- How is it that we deserve the world's sympathy?
-
- Enough already.
-
- The Bush administration should be magnifying "the
pain" they're feeling from the loss of the seven astronauts by tens
of thousands to get some perspective on how the world feels about our military-induced
explosions. There isn't enough time for all the memorials these innocent
people deserve.
-
- Scary, isn't it, how much terror the U.S. government
(our government!) could wage in one single month? First, it's toxic and
radioactive materials raining down on our innocent heads. And, next, it's
bombs heading for the heads of innocent Iraqis.
-
- Yes, we need to stop terrorism. And we should start with
the terrorism being done in our name.

- Editor's Note (Jocelyn): These are my personal feelings.
-
- My choice of articles today is flagrantly egocentric
because I'm furious. We are less than 10 miles from the deer named below.
Over 600 pieces of the shuttle fell one county over. One fell right into
our reservoir. One fell just across the beautiful lake I've look out on
each glorious morning. One piece fell just the other side of us - and
the numbers mount.
-
- NASA's trying to claim that those deer have lumpy throat
disease or some insanely ludicrous name. So explain, NASA, why everyone
I know has headaches, swollen glands and seriously deep coughs. Explain
why we all dragged around the office Friday (the longest day in history)
intermittently stopping to question what we were doing just a minute ago.
Explain why we feel so rough.
-
- Or you, Mr. President - take your attention of the other
guys for just a minute and look at "your" people. Explain why
FEMA, Red Cross or some other scam/sham organization didn't start handing
out Potassium iodide and information immediately. NOW, who's practicing
active genocide???
-
- Mr. President, since you choose to support the farce
that Texas is a state, then you'd better protect this little cash cow because
the bio-diversity of this lush area seems to be getting squeezed. Or does
that, in fact, suit your purposes?
-
- And to the reader - please, if you are anywhere in the
debris path - start taking whatever nutritional precautions you can NOW.
Today. Leave your computers, run to the health food store and don't come
back until you and everyone you love has started taking everything they
recommended.
-
- Be well, Jocelyn
-
- P.S. Just got a note from a (good) doctor who is very
interested in the short term and long term health effects in Texas. Please
send any info (and be specific about any mitigating factors) to e-news@the-i.net .
