a russian soil but chief al qaeda coordinator in the north caucuses has been eliminated with officials hopeful that news will devastate the region's terrorist network. where nuclear weapons were used for the first time in nineteen forty five it changed the world forever i will feel now children also on the gotten asks if such a tragedy should ever be repeated. material a tactical module in the american military base a by a slow and became an enemy attack the ground zero wrong not contaminated and deserted. the marshall islands were scattered for hours southwest of honolulu it is nowhere from north america closely but a paradise if one intends to test atomic bombs. all.
9:32 am
all right with tell of the united states government now i want to turn left right this stuff it's all worse ember scuppering good or bad. one eleven of you don't want to work with. little fool with. everything being and god has just begun. over the years of testing thirty three of the sixty seven devices that were tested here were bigger than the largest one ever tested in that eighteen of them were recalled megaton level devices in other words a thousand filatov including the bravo test in one nine hundred fifty four fifteen
9:33 am
make its own test thousand times more powerful and explosive yield than the hiroshima bomb. iran a normal year issue number there are no one and. it makes me angry then nobody knows what is your all night long but it is. this. march first one nine hundred fifty four the islanders are amazed to see the sun rising in the west but the star is a thermonuclear bravo irradiates the sky by the wind blows towards the atoll a brown that. m.m.m. on. yes i think some media. was it a pearl. anybody was sleeping. right nights completely and my.
9:34 am
one the latest call in thousand we've seen the plane goes down from the sky now around the ground. like the sand our lake the sun. and then the union there is strong and true eyes everywhere and the crown was moving. and we were so scared. with exactly what i had already so we hide for several years and when we in fact we don't know why things covered performing well we knew the outer because no one has not. turned out to be
9:35 am
a lot more powerful than they expected. they didn't bother to move the runkle out people because they said oh well it was basically too complicated logistics they had to take by this time permission from the department of interior and frankly it was expensive. it was just by accident that we even found out that that won't let people have been proud of. the reason they found out was that with a little japanese fishing trawler. that was also out there and they got dusted with the radio at seventy that drew the most headlines never heard of it was called the lucky trick on. the american government rushed john herself in there and they head out there said that they'll be ok in a month well it's quite the radio operator had died but the people in broken left they had a slow motion kind of effect they also had
9:36 am
a lot of other vomiting you know lost what else did they kill you and burn yeah it's my mom sisters you hear with all learn from here. you know we're. going to. report it and we were very. cool we're doing this until. i'm. ready. for some pretty. good. when it is so. normal western history. hardly. reasons why. the american media became passionate about the overwhelming power and complacent about the victims of the cold war. this is not the case for the scientific. was they got the news they sent
9:37 am
a team of doctors to examine the wrong people and be good this continuously and are still doing it because they are such a living example of what it is like. if it's only a bomb with the actual explosion so the rumble of people are much more of an example for the rest of the world than the actual balmy in her world and nagasaki. obviously the invention of what happened in her scene or what happened in the marshall islands is very different it was chronic exposure for many years as an explosion just a bigger tonnage was thousands of times what happened the machine was so that's one aspect lot of people say well you can't really compare that because. there's just a difference in the whole sequence of events and the amount of radiation that apple would broadcast was a watershed in the. many scientists became concerned and actually i think
9:38 am
a lot of the movement to stop nuclear weapons testing wasn't about the future of the war it was actually an environmental and health concern that this thing is affecting us and our children every day. they started to give birth to monster like he. and so many miscarriages. rape like fetuses and. my mom has seven miscarriage and one time she had a baby that looked like a great and that made me sad that i have a babysitter is that alien or is not even a human being. in december two thousand and five and marshallese presented the
9:39 am
american government with pictures of deformed babies born with gray hair and without ears the baby survived for only a few weeks the abnormal births that you see photographs of of recent children i don't know that those can be attributed to any exposure and no one is investigating to find out are they in general radiogenic or are they caused by something else that's a question that may well remain unanswered. i am part of a program that the department of energy is involved in the government energy is part of the u.s. government and so the medical program provides ongoing monitoring for radiation related illness for the people around the lab and you do it if you have one question yes he's the director of the yes birth defects. it is about their opinion right into me and it is a last minute plan and i think you have heard of other people like giving me i'm
9:40 am
not sure if you're familiar with a pair seven report in this report it did see very clearly that it is genetic mutations that are changed biologically by relation and they've shown it with plants mice and bacteria so if you follow that through then there probably is genetic things that are transmitted by you know enough radiation a much radiation that takes it didn't comment in there but in your mind you know being a woman would that affect your children i could see from that there are seventy port i don't know. it's never been short to see yes but it's also been never shown to see you know. ninety percent of the women are wrong is that it's many a woman to leeward the silly face so you go for any guy you know why is nine it was and why is that why i never i never even. close to.
9:41 am
it because of the radiation readings when the survivors are told that their children. have no genetical effects of radiation has no genetic effects on the second and third and fourth and so on generations. in their plain words are our person by person we don't trust we know. that they are genetic. i don't have any children or my own i'm not proud very generous. towards them. to me she's my birth mother i mean she might have me in my blood when i was she's there a reason i turn out like this i want to be something i want to do something for my
9:42 am
people because i know she is and how hard life evelyn is homesick so when she can she visits her mother who lives in the general she has given up hope of ever living on wrong lap the atmospheric testing spread really want to really throughout the world mainly in the northern hemisphere not only near the test sites but all over the world and we're still living with the long lived radioactive legacy of that fallout we still have strung from ninety in the dirt we have cesium one thirty seven we have been told me and and in the air we have carbon fourteen and it gets into the food and so every time we eat we have a little bit of the legacy of atmospheric testing. the national cancer institute in the case that the testing of nuclear weapons go through united states as well as the soviet union and the other countries
9:43 am
a test of nuclear weapons has by the year two thousand was sold at an approximately four hundred thousand people and we have your. dog will dog prematurely of cancer. no space or time can stop the bombs rippling effect. it's a glimmering predicting that the winds and the wind. down to reste disappear hundreds of thousands of victims during the japanese dead already in mass graves the nuclear arsenal claims more corpses than previously thought and it's not over. it's a big disaster for us here in the marshes. there is no place for ice to write from every day it's because our lead is done badly. now there's many many cases of cancer. for the women it's more more women i was aware. it's true that women
9:44 am
generally have a higher cancer risk average going to the girl children are a lot more vulnerable than any other part of the population so especially in regard to iraq cancer. if i remember the number right at about one hundred times the risk of adult males from the same relation to. its cairo removed in nineteen eighty one could. i remember one time she went across four children or one of the breast. and she was telling me to be going to class check up and then she came back and i had a shot at her my grades went to the matter with you what is going on. gto minute he had a man in one of oppression the engine and out operation and then get him. in
9:45 am
the early and it may be as when the us started to be classified a lot of the information about the testing program that had been classified as secret top secret. better understanding of the effects of radiation was developed. secrecy and classified documents belong to the tradition of the world's armies especially when their actions could prompt lawsuits over millions of dollars in compensation from their governments ok share. of your bizarre are so called that the class advice argument is there were people i said by the name you named for if a member correctly but we just cut them. you know ninety to ninety nine you don't buy into us like simple boxes on time there was this project all four point one the united states wanted to
9:46 am
learn or make a study on radiation effects on human beings and so that all of these people were chosen. to be used as guinea pigs the rationale in part was that and this is quoting from the book even a report of one nine hundred fifty eight greater knowledge of such effects on human beings is is barely needed such as the habitation of these people on the island will afford most valuable ecological radiation and human beings. of various radioisotopes present can be traced from the soil through the food chain and into the human beings where the tissue an organ distribution biological half lives and excretion rates can be studied their brain some he will from day to experiment started to get their quick journey with their eyeballs and use them as
9:47 am
an inbuilt that's when we progress and they stood there for. x. and we know that chronic low dose exposure will increase to some extent the incidence of leukemia and cancer of the skin but we are in a region that we really know very little about in regard to human effects when it is about good health care is a people that are receiving their health care at the first of our trust in what they're trying to do and i i trust involves historical context of that and second there were definite trust assertions. the department of energy stacks more than three million fewer big feet of studies on radiation the scientists were still fascinated by this research that from one nine hundred forty seven until the seventy's they conducted experiments on the american population itself. people were
9:48 am
injured it was can tony romo though some of the leading health institutions and united states the stated purpose of many of these experiments were to devise ways to protect people from radiation exposure we haven't seen any as far as i could i could recall any real useful information of it came out of this pregnant women were given radio and to viral to see the metabolism. of our body and the children part of it there was a school for supposedly were probably children. of cereal with families children the president with the health physics society was asked this very rank and serial to your own children and he said of course not and so this is the problem of of places like run with there's proud of immediate soil also appeared to be. intimately to the white contamination. so that the castle for our little
9:49 am
shop renowned everyone fires because it in the end on the islands up on the one are . clearly in the far. east. jumped a bomb because this. is. there are always. everybody makes mistakes you know every once in this thread something you planned it for a long long time. that misty it was. countdown i saw. and. it was there. maybe they've been there. for months and i hear it's four miles.
9:50 am
in the neighborhood maybe even there we are right there are. the people of brown that have been engaged in talks with the united states and they still hope that justice will prevail. but the superpower frightens. i don't believe in a confrontational policy and being an anti-american. i think that would be counterproductive to our issues our relationship with the united states i believe the american should provide all the health care to the marshallese people because they are responsible for the testing they contaminated our islands. so far we have negotiated with them it didn't work out it's not helping much you
9:51 am
know as the wrong a police chase after a health program and the decontamination of their island huge expenditures are made right under their noses yes the islands are still a part of american military research with part of the added epicenter. was an able base and its support of the testing during the eighty's when the star wars program came into effect questions importance was raised again and it became what has been referred to as the catcher's mitt where rockets fired from vandenberg air force base in california would land in the lagoon or in your garage with. while hanging on to the dream of building an anti-missile shield the americans bombed progeny for more than twenty years but this sort of nuclear umbrella which cost the american taxpayers about ten billion dollars every year is also very controversial because the united states doesn't hide its intention to install interceptors in space as you know jane in government under called martin was committed secretly
9:52 am
silently and if any part of the american missile defense plans and many of us said he would do it this really isn't about missile defense this is really about. first beginnings of the weaponization of space once we got here from a shared history sixty five percent favored it was sixty five percent against we forced it to else the americans that we can use no thank you very much we were going to be part of the us it was you know what you want. to stand there are spaced from the translation stage the lack all current discussions international about what all the planning in space is very bad i only have one army of engineers are improving our cellular phones now communications in the world and have another army engineers are planning a whole army to destroy what's going on up there. it's all
9:53 am
lies that it's a big boy it's nothing it's like an empty shell like to believe that is that. but. how can we trust. that. we have to tell our story because we are a product of nuclear weapons we want to tell the world that these are the consequences . i said i almost. i said this is my old song. it was since that i tell the story over and over again to the were i said to myself. what is my story is it would while or is there for everybody to listen to or. if there is no
9:54 am
money for it or people are out for help program then what i said share my body to the world. we will bite. through its air. but do something big for the good people. in our surprise. all over the masses. and least they need something and return. to business for free i have the crime family but i don't know. perry my family i mean my campaign there are people. who you would imagine that the syrian government called.

in one thousand nine hundred six the testimony of lesion at night before the international court of justice sealed the fate of nuclear weapons on july eighth the panel of judges declared the threat or use of nuclear weapons in general is contrary to the norms of international law included in the law of war. or the judges of the court were unanimous in their opinion that the nuclear weapon should be exterminated from the centers of the word and they heard that there were so many principles of international law which the nuclear weapons language. worked and they were really bad and said i don't want the state because there are more people. in the room and that's. this pains for everyone only when a companion of that place i guess. it
9:56 am
is my friend. who else is. grassroots one of my for the survivors on their kids. there was neither anger nor hatred in the survivors voices just pain and nuclear powers unlucky these voices are too weak to prevent these arsenals from re-emerging in military strategies the international court of justice is a moral authority and its opinion has had no effect on countries that depend on the atom bomb for their power so between the time they did images of the victims and disregard for the future we are counting on the survivors descendants to intervene . but beyond maki or evelyn who can say who is not living with the legacy of hiroshima or wrong clap. the a at. home
