Subject: (abolition-usa) GPW on the move again
Yesterday, May 17th, Global Peace Walk 2000 finished its schedule in New
Mexico and began walking from Kit Carson Park in Taos, New Mexico, on an
accelerated pace to keep on schedule for May 29th Memorial Day Holiday
Ceremony at the National Memorial in Oklahoma City. (Attn: Scott Bentley
405-235-3313)
The walkers were rebuffed by the authorities in the Los Alamos area as to
their offer of help. Apparently FEMA and other authorities have the
"situation well in hand" and the area sealed off. (For important related
info see 08Dec99 article by Uri Dowbenko "Lawsuit Alleges FEMA Funded by
Laundered Drug Profits" archived at
http://www.egroups.com/group/global-peace-walk/367.html )
Reverend Yamato wants me to emphasize that this fire that swept over the Los
Alamos Nuclear Weapons Labs while the walk was in the NM area means that we
must clearly sound a Global Emergency Alert, for ending the nuclear age and
reawakening humanity as to how to live together in peace, while the walk
procedes on course to inaugurate this UN Year and Decade of Creating a
Culture of Peace for the 21st Century.
If you know people in Oklahoma who would like to connect with the walkers,
you can keep checking the voicemail number for their latest overnight
locations and schedule (415) 267-1877.
The walk has now completed 4/9 of its jouney in time from San Francisco
towards Washington DC (Oct6-12) before ending at the United Nations in New
York City on its 55th anniversary October 24th.
http://www.globalpeacenow.org
The walkers now number at their smallest (about 20 with 7 support vehicles)
but they are in high spirits and at last have a completely harmonious group,
after those along from the beginning struggling for "personal control" have
left the walk in process of recognition offered by deep ceremony in the last
couple of weeks.
Thanks so much to all those in New Mexico who have gone out of their way to
help.
Walk coordinator Crispin Clarke is spending a couple of weeks doing advance
work in Washington DC (his hometown) and in New York City before rejoining
the walk in Oklahoma on May 23rd. If you have information on contacts for
him to make in DC or NYC you can email him at coolcrispinclear@hotmail.com
Reverend Yamato asks me to pass on the invitation now to serious people who
want to join as walkers and supporters as Global Peace Walk begins its route
through Oklahoma.
Financial support may be send as tax deductible donations to Global Peace
Walk, PO Box 170245, San Francisco CA 94117. For matters that require a
timely response you can call me at 661-822-3309.
Non-tax deductible donations to help me cover phone bills, etc., so as to
better be able to do advance arrangements for the walk may be sent to David
Williams, POBox 147, Tehachapi, CA 93581.
Also, check out this great idea as something of value to you in the US and
Canada that can solve some problems and also offer financial support -- "The

Subject: (abolition-usa) Fwd: Alternative Pu disposition plan: SIGN-ON
Dear Friends:
The problem of dealing with the surplus plutonium from dismantled nuclear
warheads is an extremely vexing one that has both short term and long term
implications for disarmament and non-proliferation. Please consider
signing on to this plutonium disposition plan which is an alternative to
the plans being put forth by the U.S. and Russian governments which favor
the use of plutonium in reactors. To sign on please e-mail Michele Boyd at
<michele@ieer.org>
Thanks,
Hisham.
>
>Dear All:
>
>The United States and Russia are close to completing their negotiations
>on the disposition of surplus military plutonium, most of which
>is planned for use as mixed oxide (MOX) fuel in commercial reactors.
>Many NGOs around the world, however, do not support this program because
>
>of the safety, security, and environmental problems associated with MOX.
>
>A concerted push by grassroots organizations and others is needed,
>not only against MOX but also for an alternative plan that will address
>both the security of plutonium and provide financial support to Russia.
>For this, we need widespread environmental support in the US, Europe,
>Russia, and Japan. IEER is posting this plutonium disposition plan on
>safeguarding separated plutonium for your endorsement.
>
>It necessary to stop MOX and to put both Russian and US plutonium into
>non-weapons-usable form. This plan also holds the potential for moving
>European countries that have MOX programs in the direction of
>immobilization, given the German decision to phase out nuclear power.
>Finally, it is an alternative plutonium disposition plan to the
>Non-Proliferation Trust, Inc. (NPT, Inc.) idea to import foreign spent
>nuclear fuel into Russia for storage, which is vigorously opposed by
>Russian as well as many US environmental groups.
>
>This plan is in final form. The core points were formulated at a
>meeting in March 2000 attended by Michael Marriotte (NIRS, Washington
>DC), Mycle Schneider (WISE, Paris), Tobias Muenchmeyer (Greenpeace
>International) and Arjun Makhijani (IEER). It has since been
>discussed extensively with several colleagues from Russia and to some
>extent also with some representatives of US groups. Their comments
>have been incorporated. There is some urgency to creating and endorsing
>an alternative plan since President Clinton will be meeting with
>President Putin in Moscow on June 4 and 5, when they are expected to
>announce their joint agreement.
>
>IEER, in collaboration with our Russian counterparts, would like to
>release this letter to the global press in Moscow just before President
>Clinton arrives there. So please look at this with some urgency and
>consider signing on. Thank you.
>
>Arjun Makhijani
>
>
>
>
>Dear Presidents Clinton and Putin,
>
>As a contribution to permanent arms reduction and disarmament, the
>United States and Russia have declared about 50 tons each of military
>plutonium surplus to their requirements. It is generally acknowledged
>that this commendable step must be followed by measures to put this
>plutonium into a form that cannot easily be diverted or reused in
>weapons.
>
>There are several proposals that have been discussed and studied in the
>last many years in both governmental and NGO circles as to how this
>problem is to be addressed. The plan that the US and Russian
>governments have been negotiating involves the conversion of most of
>this plutonium into a mixed oxide (MOX fuel) for use in commercial
>nuclear power reactors, mainly light water reactors, in both Russia and
>the United States. The use of Canadian reactors is also being
>considered as an option.
>
>This proposal has many drawbacks. It raises many unresolved safety
>questions and could increase the risk and severity of nuclear reactor
>accidents. Unless steps are taken to militarize security at these
>nuclear power plants, the risk of diversion of weapons grade plutonium
>will increase with time.
>
>We believe that the other option of immobilization of plutonium, which
>Russia and the US have adopted for only a small proportion of the
>plutonium, should be extended to cover the full amount. This is a
>safer, faster, and more economically efficient option. It involves
>putting plutonium into a non-weapons usable form by mixing it with
>other materials and making the resultant waste form proliferation
>resistant. The MOX option should be discarded.
>
>A considerable amount of discussion has also revolved around the
>financing of the Russian portion of the plutonium disposition plan.
>This is because Russia has agreed to the current plan, which is
>dominated by the use of MOX in light water nuclear power reactors,
>largely at the suggestion of the West. One financing plan has been
>put forward by a US corporation known as the Non-proliferation Trust,
>Inc. This would involve importation of up to 10,000 metric tons of
>foreign spent nuclear power reactor fuel for storage in Russia, a
>complete halt to commercial reprocessing, and a payment to Russia for
>building storage facilities, a nuclear waste repository
>and other purposes. Such a plan is currently illegal under Russian law
>and hence attempts are being made to amend the law. However, the
>Russian people are overwhelmingly opposed to such a plan, as is
>demonstrated by polling and by the firm opposition of environmental
>NGOs in Russia. Many US NGOs and those in other countries also oppose
>this plan.
>
>In recognition of the reality that a plutonium disposition plan is
>needed, we, the undersigned, would like to offer the following proposal
>based on immobilization.
>
>1. The same disposition plan in terms of the disposition technical
>details would be carried out in parallel in the United States and
>Russia.
>
>2. It would include all separated commercial and surplus military
>plutonium.
>
>3. Reprocessing of commercial spent fuel would be halted.
>
>4. All separated commercial plutonium in US and Russian stocks, as well
>as all surplus military plutonium would be immobilized. There would be
>some flexibility as regards the specific immobilization method.
>
>5. The immobilized plutonium of each country would be stored in that
>country and put under International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
>safeguards.
>
>6. The West would lease Russia's plutonium for 50 years or would
>purchase it outright. Since plutonium has no commercial value as a
>fuel, some means has to be found to determine the price to be paid for
>the non-proliferation benefit. Since Russia regards plutonium as a
>potentially valuable fuel, the upper limit to the purchase price would
>be the value of the fuel normally used in light water reactors -- low
>enriched uranium (LEU) -- equivalent of the MOX that could be made
>out of the plutonium disregarding all fuel fabrication costs or any
>other additional costs associated with the use of MOX. In other words,
>the maximum amount Russia would be paid would correspond to the LEU
>fuel value as if the plutonium had already been made into MOX.
>
>7. The payments to Russia could be stretched out over a time period
>comparable to the deal that Russia and the United States have made for
>the purchase of surplus Russian military highly enriched uranium -- that
>
>is about 20 years -- or to the time that it takes to immobilize the
>plutonium and to put it under IAEA safeguards.
>
>8. The West would also pay for the immobilization of plutonium in Russia
>
>(in addition to the payment described in Item 6 above) .
>
>9. There are a number of ways in which this plutonium disposition plan
>could be financed. For instance: (1) The G-7, as the group of wealthy
>western countries is known -- would fund it using the funding of the
>shut down of the reactors at Chernobyl as a precedent. (2) The European
>Union would create a Russian plutonium fund. (3) A small tax on natural
>gas imported from Russia into Europe could finance the plan. (4) The
>United States could supply part of the funds as the wealthier party to
>the agreement. (5) NATO could earmark funds for the plan, since this
>will enhance security for all its members. These financing mechanisms
>are not mutually exclusive.
>
>In view of the widespread concerns relating to the use of MOX fuel in
>reactors, and the liabilities that it entails, we urge you not to adopt
>a plutonium disposition plan that includes the use of MOX but rather to
>endorse this alternative. We want to thank you for the time and
>consideration that you have given to this letter and wish you success in
>
>your deliberations.
>
>Sincerely,
>

Dear Editor:
Radioactive Smoke is Blowing across America take care! Exposure to the smoke
from the fire at Los Alamos, New Mexico is not healthy & could even be
America's Chernobyl. Our governments long history of not telling the public
the truth in the Name of National Security leaves it up to civil society.
Los Alamos is the heart of National Security & we are on our own.
I was born up river & down wind in 1946 from the Hanford Nuclear
Reservation. Researching & writing Radiation, Research, Rage & Realization:
the 4-R's of Growing up Downwind helped me process my outrage at lies that
endangered my life. The Experimental Remedies was a part of that article. In
my family three of five have had cancer, my 41 year old brother dead & 6 out
of 10 friends from junior high school dead from cancer. Told in 1984 of
cancer & in 1987 a brain tumor my life depended upon finding the truth &
then to find a way to health without chemo therapy, radiation or health
insurance.
Keys I use to building health include:
Drink miso soup with sea vegetables daily; Clean your colon & re-seed it
with acidophilus, amylase, protease etc.; Dry brush & soak in hot salt bath
to cleanse; Eat organic whole grains, vegetables & fruits; Juice vegetables
& fruits for raw enzymes
Drink clean fresh water; Supplement with: Complex B, multiple vitamin &
mineral, calcium & kelp; Blue green algae & wheat grass - similar to blood &
easy for body to use; Pray & meditate - as you think so you are - positive
thoughts; & Love creates a coherent energy field - source & emanate love!
The enclosed article: Emergency Experimental Radiation Remedies gives
more information on the above.
Fluoride was needed by the Manhattan project & a study fabricated by
the University of Rochester to protect duPont from liability in a lawsuit
because a fluoride release killed sheep & crops in New Jersey. This study
was the father of all studies & the beginning of a huge cover-up that the
American public pays for in ill health & bad bones - osteoporosis. Source
material Project Censored, Nexus & searching all my life for the truth that
would save my life.
General Eisenhower warned us about the military industrial media complex &
that the people would have to seek the truth, stand up & demand that we as a
country work for peace. It is time to stop the era of making war on
everything. Arming for peace is not congruent. The price of winning the cold
war is a radioactive smoke cloud blowing across America, her grain belt &
eastern shores. The people downwind deserve to know & to do what ever their
own discernment tells them. I offer my experience with experimental
radiation remedies for who ever might be interested. Your help in
facilitating this would be greatly appreciated.
Work that I did in researching the work of Mahatma Gandhi the decade of the
1980s was & is invaluable in knowing my peace of mind & heart. Although
divorced from Mahatma Gandhi's relative I often turn within & ask what would
a Mahatma Gandhi or a Jesus Christ do in this situation. Probably take a
deep breathe, feel the Presence of Love within a moment of silence & know
exactly what to next - hit the forward key & share my story that other lives
may live. Thank you!

EMERGENCY EXPERIMENTAL RADIATION REMEDIES
Radiation Alert Los Alamos a Dirty Fire!
Theresa Marie K. Gandhi
Severe Health Danger Alert to all in & downwind of the fire at Los Alamos,
New Mexico! Geiger counters not under Government control show high
radioactivity present in Santa Fe & downwind according to a report on Coast
to Coast AM.
I communicate not to generate fear but rather to share knowledge learned the
hard way, by experience. Fifty years of experiments with plutonium, fluoride
& other very toxic & exotic materials are now air borne. The colors in the
fire were very odd & most probably pose a Severe Health Threat to all Life
Downwind. Pray for the fire fighters & share the following information.
I am a Hanford Nuclear Reservation Downwinder born 1946 when everything
radioactive was very, very hot & very, very loose in the environment.
Ignorance by now dead scientists have left us a very dirty & dangerous
legacy. February 1993 when the World Trade Center bomb exploded I received a
large enough dose of radiation to cause 1/3 of my hair to fall out, nausea
for month - lost 20 #s, black & blue from just a light touch etc. I had
researched how to get radiation out of the body about the time of Three Mile
Island. I immediately applied the following experimental remedies. I do not
claim that this will cure anything. The danger is so great & the remedies
harmless.
Drink miso soup as soon & as much as possible with sea vegetables. Miso is
a live culture with enzymatic active ingredients that help the small
intestine stay healthy. The doctors at the hospital in Hiroshima found this
out. Do not boil the miso. Add the miso paste to a small amount of soup that
has cooled off, mix it & add to your soup stock just as you serve it to keep
the culture alive.
I went to an auravedic health store & bought a bottle of liquid humus,
i.e. organic, mineral rich liquid mud (clay might work if you can't get
humus). I diluted & drank the humus to pull the radioactive material & free
radicals out of my intestines. Clean your colon & re-seed it with the proper
intestinal flora & fauna meaning acidophilus, amylase, protease & other
digestive enzymes. These are the body's labor force & become depleted with
exposure to toxins, radioactivity & under nourishment. Food from our
depleted & radioactive agribusiness practices does not help. Eat Organic
whole grains, vegetables & fruits!*
Cleanse & build are the principles. You want calcium in your bones (milk &
dairy not a good source) & iodine in your thyroid gland. Supplement with
calcium & kelp - homeopathic if you can get it. Blue green algae - the
single cell with the broken cell wall is very good. Take a full spectrum
vitamin, mineral & B complex. Symptoms of high stress & chemo therapy are
the same as a depletion of the B vitamins. Juice vegetables & fruits & drink
lots of clean fresh water.
Radiation, fluoride, aspartame & MSG disrupt the brain's bio-chemistry,
especially serotonin the mood governor. Depression can result & other mental
health challenges of various kinds.
Fear is a major challenge as it attracts to oneself what one fears the
most. As you think so you are. Pray & meditate. Visualize self as healthy &
feeling the Presence of Love flowing through your heart. Love creates a
coherent energy field that supports, builds & maintains health.
Skin is the largest elimination organ. After brushing the salty bath's
bio-chemistry helps cleanse the body. I dry brush my body & take a very hot
bath filled so you can submerse. I add to the bath: 3 handfuls of rock salt,
3 tablespoons baking soda & 3 tablespoons vinegar. I also add a drop or two
of essential oil.
I say my prayers, light a candle & mediate in the bath for about 20 minutes.
A prayer is anything you feel from your heart, Open your heart & just BE! I
daily ask Creator to be cleansed, balanced, centered in Love & connected
with the Web of Life in gratitude for the blessing of Life & Presence of
God.
If you must be in the area of exposure - Emanate Light & Love. Staying
centered in your heart consciously source love from within your heart &
radiate it out. This experimental mode might explain the natural immunity of
a Mother Teresa.
After exposure remove outer clothes & don't sleep is same space with
outside clothes or shoes. Shower as soon as possible.
For further information see: "Gandhi's Truth" newsletter vol. 6 - 1993:
Fighting Radiation & Chemical Pollutants with foods, herb & vitamins by
Steven R. Schechter, N.D. & Practicing the Presence by Joel S. Goldsmith.
I applied the above & moved out of New York to the southwest to recover
from exposure. I knew I needed to minimize my further exposure & I knew that
continued exposure to electro-magnetic & intense radio & microwave fields
would make recovery difficult. The intense fields of a major city are not
body friendly. Nature, clean water, organic & whole food, mental silence,
peace of mind, an open heart & gratitude are major keys to survival,
recovery, good health & a long life.
Love & light through you & peace!

Subject: usually worse

Remember it's usually worse than the mainstream media is allowed to tell,
and the lack of official information in this has been unprecedented. We
attended the standing-room only meeting with state officials in Santa Fe
last night, and the meeting with Siberian environmental professionals at
St. Johns the night before, and no one has any independent assurances that
all is well. Official assurances keep going on about the concrete bunkers
being safe, but they won't talk about the tons of toxic contaminants on the
ground where it burned, and what the onsite air monitors would have read if
they hadn't burned. There are lots of tests and sampling techniques they
admit they just aren't doing at all, but radiation isn't everything. Carol
Miller of LASG and the Green Party made a well reasoned argument for
outright shutdown on that basis. We live under that initial cloud of smoke
just as Carol does. Look at the cloud on our site at
http://globalcircle.net/losalamosfire.htm . These crowds were outraged at
the lack of sufficient warnings and information, and lack of Spanish
translation in the official warnings.
Now it hits the fan. The summer storms start soon, and people are going to
be asking blunt questions all down the Rio Grande through Texas to the
Gulf. The fruit and citrus industry downriver may never hear the end of
this. How much food contamination will grocery buyers put up with? Does
anybody believe they're going to clean up thousands of acres in time for
the summer storms?

Runoff Poses Possible Danger
By Ian Hoffman
Journal Staff Writer
SANTA FE - Disastrous as the Cerro Grande Fire
has been
for Los Alamos and its federal nuclear-weapons lab,
scientists say
things could get uglier.
Envision floods and tons of cinder-speckled mud
washing out of
the charcoaled Jemez Mountains into Los Alamos' burned
neighborhoods and the lab's canyons.
The gushing floodwaters scour the burned EF and
PHERMEX
sites at the lab's Technical Area 15, both littered by
pieces of
chemical high explosive, toxic metals and radioactive
elements.
Any PCBs the fire did not convert to airborne dioxin,
the runoff
rinses out of a canyon behind the lab's power plant.
Back at
Technical Area 16, the waters carry away high
explosives from an
old explosives machining building and Material
Disposal Area P,
an explosives and toxic metals dump.
The floods blast through the most burned and
contaminated
canyons - Los Alamos, Pueblo and Water - picking
up dozens
of contaminants mixed in soils no longer anchored by
plants. They
flush into the Rio Grande and Cochiti Reservoir.
How real is this scenario? Quite, lab officials
say. The mountains
and lands of Los Alamos are likely to assume new
shapes,
perhaps form the beginnings of new canyons. The
largest canyons
probably will create large new deltas of sand and rock
in the Rio
Grande.
"We're really looking at some catastrophic problems
for the lab
and the county coming off national forest lands," said
Dave
McInroy, a LANL cleanup manager.
Beyond that, the uncertainties are huge.
No one has gauged with any confidence the mudslide
danger to
Los Alamos' western side. No one is sure what kinds
and what
levels of contaminants will leave the lab, but lab
scientists believe
they will and at rates much greater than those of the
last decade, if
not since the Manhattan Project. So far, LANL
environmental
officials say the canyon contaminants are so low in
concentration
and so likely to be diluted by water and eroded soil
that they
probably will not reach humans at dangerous levels.
But toxicologists know very little about the threat
of exposure to
multiple contaminants, especially for sensitive
aquatic and
amphibious wildlife. Sometimes, low-level toxins can
be synergistic
in effect. They can weaken different yet intertwined
biological
functions in ways that, for example, could increase
vulnerability to
illness.
"The problem is quantifying that," said Russ
MacRae, an
environmental contaminant specialist for the U.S. Fish
and Wildlife
Service in Albuquerque.
Much depends on what the U.S. Forest Service and
Los
Alamos National Laboratory do in the next few weeks.
Both are
mobilizing contractors and checking with dealers for
rock for
riprap, jute matting and native seed.
Scientists are flying over the burned forest and
lab today. A
plane specially equipped for spectral imaging also was
to perform
two days of passes, creating a detailed map of the
land's reflection
of light - an indicator of burn intensity and thus
erosion potential.
The Dome Fire of 1996 and the Oso Complex Fire of
1998
produced spots of extraordinary erosion. Heavily
burned lands
lost soil at rates of 100 tons an acre or more. So
far, people
working the Cerro Grande Fire report seeing large,
scattered
splotches of intense burn on steep slopes. One lab
official said he
has heard post-fire runoff estimated at 100 to 200
times normal.
Experts for LANL, the state Environment Department
and the
federal Burned Area Emergency Rehabilitation, or BAER,
team
already are fanning out on foot to inspect the
blackened territory.
They will estimate erosion potential, then draw up a
plan to shore
up burned areas and protect the lab and town.
It is the first time such an interagency rehab team
has ever dealt
with a fire around and inside a nuclear site,
especially one with a
57-year accumulation of contaminants.
Meanwhile, lab scientists are checking many of the
lab's roughly
1,000 waste dumps or spills - potential release
sites, or PRSs.
The fire itself has added a new slew of
contaminants called
polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, or PAHs, that result
from
incomplete burning. Some are innocuous, like those in
a cup of
coffee; others rank among the most carcinogenic
substances.
Potential release sites featuring the worst
combinations of
potential for erosion and heavy contamination may have
to be dug
up or fortified by rock, mats or hay bales.
"We're going to make every effort we can to protest
those," said
McInroy, a scientist in charge of regulatory
compliance for
LANL's Environmental Restoration Project, which
prepares sites
for cleanup or stabilization.
Lab environmental restoration scientists are
hunkered down in a
Santa Fe office, poring over maps of waste sites and
the burned
territory. Project leader Julie Canepa has assigned
them to list the
10 or 15 most threatening potential release sites and
a plan of
attack.
Water Canyon alone - heavily burned and draining
several
sites where scientists exploded various metals -
contains traces
of 11 radioactive elements from nuclear-weapons
research, plus
95 manmade chemicals. They range from high explosives
to
insecticides and more than a dozen toxic metals.
Fortunately, few houses lie in the canyons that are
both burned
and contaminated. The greatest risk for human exposure
is
expected to be to hikers, mountain bikers and others
trekking in
the canyons.
"So we have low concentrations and low rates of
use," said Lars
Soholt, senior risk assessor for the restoration
project's SWAT
team. "Our preliminary assessment is the human risk,
even under
these changed conditions, hasn't changed. And we think
the risk
associated with the (contaminated) sediments is
minimal."
To be certain will require intense ground
inspections, tests of
water and soils and computer simulations.
"It's going to take weeks to months to really clear
up the
picture," said Soholt.
The work is intense, and some of Canepa's SWAT team
lost
homes and possessions in the fire.
On Tuesday, "I had them go around the room and tell
their
stories," Canepa said. "There's a few people who are
really
affected, so I have to be careful with them. Then I
have the Santa
Fe people, who are saying 'Let me get back to work. I
want to do
something.' ''
