Dr. Helen Caldicott on Atomic bombs and Atomic reactors part 1 - April 9th 2011, Berlin

[commnter10]

Estimated Reagan had an IQ of only 100? Funny how the USSR is no longer around due primarily to a guy with an IQ of 100 and his secret plan.

And please, submit a DNA test to prove area of national origin. You know, just to make sure you didn't actually grow up in Moscow or some place like that.

Thanks for telling the truth about the dangers of nuclear power and nuclear weapons, but that's about it.

@commnter10

If you think Reagan had anything to do with the disintegration of the USSR, you are incredibly stupid. It was due to internal politics, failure to provide a standard of living and a drawn out war in Afghanistan.

[commnter10]

He had the CIA judge the size of the Soviet economy, and it was smaller than the state of California, as he long suspected. He and a dozen others, and only them (no educated liberals or idiots among them) made a deal with the Saudis. They increased production, dropped the price of oil like a rock, and broke the USSR's main source of hard capital.

[commnter10]

They then upped the cost of Soviet aventurism around the world, especially in Central America broke Soviet communism, murderer of more than 50 million people. Meanwhile, not being a pansy liberal, he built up our military, not only in size, but especially in quality, neutralizing Soviet numerical superiority. In parts of Central Europe, WP outnumbered Nato 30 to 1.

[commnter10]

They then upped the cost of Soviet adventurism around the world, especially in Central America. Not being a pansy liberal, Reagan presided over and supported a much needed military buildup, including training and drilling, and neutralized Soviet numerical superiority. The 1991 Battle of 73 Easting in Iraq demonstrated the sharpness of the edge developed.

[commnter10]

Instead of letting a half-assed bunch of communist murderers with a screwed up communist economy have their way with the world (see videos on Yuri Bezmenov and what KGB aims were), he opposed them, did not appease them. If they wanted a fight, they'd get it, including a nuclear fight. Me stupid, maybe in some ways, but not the way you say. You're an incredible ASS, I think.

[52111centrumcz]

@commnter10

And instead of presiding over a rising economy, he led "reforms" in economics that led to a temporary boom and the 2008/2010 economic meltdown is very much his doing. And what led to the Russians defragging their nation, it had to do with loss of internal motivation and sense of belonging to one state > its a dynamic that can be observed in most authoritarian states, and so it had 0 to do with a mentally deficient patient that didn't know anything about politics, except how to act.

[commnter10]

@52111centrumcz

President Reagan was not perfect, but he was an excellent president who did alot of things right. He is not responsible for the current economy, or the 2008/10 recession. He left things in excellent shape, and the economy and tax revenues grew for over 20 years from the early 80's. There's no doubt about that. Only people with glasses of communism and lust for their neighbor's wealth can't see that.

[commnter10]

@commnter10

The underlying reason for the economic dip was demographics. The late 90's boom was driven by WW2 generation die-off, and transfer of their wealth to their heirs. It went into investment or spending. The 2001 to about 2003 recession was due to a drop in this rate of transfer, during the time of the 'notch babies', when there were fewer WW2 generation dying of.

[commnter10]

@commnter10

When the notch passed through, the economy rose again, as the numbers of WW2 generation dying off rose. Beginning about 2007 they began to finally die down in numbers.

This underlying drop in investment and spending, was SEVERELY EXACERBATED by the Fed and Government created housing boom

[commnter10]

@commnter10

Not to mention the proliferation of organized crime in corporate leadership, pillaging investors, many of whom were not careful with their inheritances.

[52111centrumcz]

@commnter10

Lol are you crazy? He created a significant increase in debt, and lowered the tax rate for corporations as well as signing bilateral trade agreements with China. All three are contributing factors to the 2008/2010 meltdown. The rise in economy had absolutely NOTHING to do with his internal policies, but with his external policy and agreements with the Saudis that led the US economy to boom on cheap fuel. You were in effect doted by benevolent (compared to oil embargo) oil producer.

[52111centrumcz]

@commnter10

Then he underwent a policy of genocidal extermination of people not politically alligned to him but who were listening to the Soviets only because they provided foreign aid, something that he should have been placed in front of a Nuremberg style tribunal, sentenced to death and shot.

[commnter10]

@52111centrumcz

Why don't you just move to China? And by that I don't mean Taiwan.

Get it over with.  Quit trying to screw up America.

Genocide is starving the Ukraine. It is systematic Gulag extermination for twenties of millions of Russians and other enslaved peoples.

It is not opposing the cancer of communism in one's own hemisphere.

[commnter10]

@commnter10

Plenty of countries had no chance of opposing communism within themselves. India was nearly subverted by the KGB. You'd abandon millions to the misery of communism. What the hell is wrong with people like you?

[52111centrumcz]

@commnter10

Why should I move to China? I am not trying to screw over America, I don't have to do that. It is screwed over enough - I had an interesting time visiting both places, and I sure as hell would not like to live(permanently) in either.

Genocide is the US - its what it is founded on, remember? Its the extermination of an entire race to a few remnants of its past, that are herded into well kept cages referred to as "reservations".

[52111centrumcz]

@commnter10

The US without nuclear weapons did not stand a chance against the WP. Even in 1989. Read US military inteligence on the capability of the Mig-29C with AA-10 missiles, they outclassed everything NATO had except F-15 and Tornadoes.

[52111centrumcz]

@commnter10

And that has what to do with their internal economy? Ahhh right, absolutely nothing, so you have absolutely zero relevant arguments so far...

[commnter10]

@52111centrumcz

No. You just can't argue worth a damn. Because the facts are not on your side. If you don't know what it means for a country to be unable to trade, for its currency to become worthless, for it to have no gold for backing it or for trading, then you must be like some current day college students who were in the news. None surveyed knew who Hitler was.

[52111centrumcz]

@commnter10

No, the problem is you are religious, and religious people don't like their dogmas opposed. You believe in the religion of American exceptionalism - its a bit like trying to explain to a middle age peasant that indulgences sold by the catholic church will not save your soul - its an excercise in futility, but can be fun for a while. I was also shocked that broadband/ADSL is not widespread in the US outside the major cities; in Europe its practically on every telephone line.

Evolution is a fact? SO wrong there. Please explain how the information in DNA originated, and then how DNA, RNA, proteins, and enzymes all originated, at the same time necessarily, and all in the right sequences to begin with, for life to exist.

[4tun8one2]

Open your audio manager and swing the balance to the left and you can hear quite well. It's a talk worth listening to.

[donrico73]

you could here her voice much louder on the left sound channel of the video...

[humboldtsentinel]

Could you please upload a non-German, original English-language version of this video?

[Tekknorg]

@humboldtsentinel This is the only footage I have made. I have no translators at hand at the moment. Please ask the IPPNW (ippnw DOT de)

[Tekknorg]

@humboldtsentinel The additional german sound came from a translator of my neighbour (high volume).

Thank you very much, Mr. Roboto

Terribleses messy audio makes this video unusable. Sad - in purpose?

[Tekknorg]

@Pakkaspyry Maybe it's useless for you. 

[Tekknorg]

Attention, the IPPNW released their own footage of Mr. Caldicott's speech - watch it on: vimeo DOTcom/22579986

[barbiewmn]

This is just horrific. From what she's saying, in the next 10+ years, there's going to tens of millions of people dying from cancer that caused by all this radiation we're being exposed to now. That's why the sky is always red in the am and pm. Geeez, now I'm afraid for my kids!

[testar2]

Zeitgeist Moving Forward = see it, here on youtube, and I guarantee you will change your way of thinking, and will make you understand what we "do" (destroying!!) to our world! ...if you dont do it already...

ZMF is the best documentary I have ever seen! I just wish everyone would see it, so everyone would get educated, and the world could start evolving for the better...

But, unfortunately, people choose soap operas instead... :(

[Tekknorg]

@testar2 Yes, maybe... but at this very moment people from everywhere are going to Geneva, on April 26th, 2011 - the 25th Chernobyl year. To protest against the gag contract WHA 12-40 between the World Health Organisation and the IAEA - this is the core of all pro atomic movement, since1959. This is the reason why all deny health riscs in relation with cancer. Come to Geneva, we will be waiting there, with liqudators, politicians, the press, journalists, children and students.
