1:32 pm
the marshall islands are scattered for hours southwest of honolulu this is nowhere from north america's playfields but a paradise if one intends to test atomic bombs. all . right the skeleton of the united states government now wants to turn this right the stuff that orders and are stopping short term and. want to limit what will be a nice. little group with. everything being a god help me god.
1:33 pm
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 the gutter eighteen of them were what are called megaton level devices in other words thousand phillips including the bravo test in one nine hundred fifty four fifteen make a time test thousand times more powerful and explosive yield then the hiroshima. it was a normal year she mumbled in or no one at. him makes me angry then nobody knows what is your oh my wrong what it is. this. march first one nine hundred fifty four the islanders are amazed to see the sun rising in the west but a star is a thermonuclear bomb bravo irradiates the sky other wind blows towards the atoll from the last. and every member on. yes i think some media.
1:34 pm
was just a ploy to anybody who is sleeping. right nights completely and my. one that might still call in thousand we've seen the plane goes down from the sky now around the ground. my best and. brightest. and then the unions there is thrown in the rise everywhere and the crown was moved say and we were so scared. with him back when. i had to you heidi so we hide for
1:35 pm
several years in when we impact we don't know why things are covered before and well we need the power because now what it has to meet. turned out to be 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 powdered. the reason they found out was that with a little japanese fishing trawler. that was also out there and they got dusted with radioactivity that drew the most headlines and never heard of it was called the
1:36 pm
lucky trick on. the american government rushed dr so but there and if they head out they said they'll be ok in a month well it's quite some radio operator had died but the people in rockaway they had a slow motion kind of effect they also had a lot of you know vomiting their loss with dust that they tell you and burn yeah it's a monsters you hear when on earth you know. you could you know we're going. to. report in a way richard because. we're doing this national front. with some pretty. clear. natives. who. are streaming history. her. reasons for.
1:37 pm
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 a team of doctors to examine the world black people and they give this continuously and are still doing it because they are such a living example of what it is like to if very intimate with the actual explosion so the wrong people are much more of an example for the rest of the world than the actual balmy in her world. obviously the all the mention of what happened in her scene or what happened in the marshall islands is very different it was chronic exposure for many years as one explosion just
1:38 pm
a bigger tonnage was thousands of times what happened to her she was so that's one aspect 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 happened when broadcast was a big watershed in the. many scientists became concerned and actually i think a lot of the movement to start nuclear weapons testing wasn't about the future of the ball 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 eight. and so many miscarriages and. rape like fetuses and.
1:39 pm
my mom. seven miscarriage and one time vienna baby i look like a creep and that need needs that is that i have a babysitter or is an alien or is not even a human being. in december two thousand and five the marshallese presented the american government 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 private energy is part of the u.s. government itself medical program provides ongoing monitoring for radiation related
1:40 pm
illness for the people on the left and you do it if you have one this is about but i mean yes birth defects. it's about they're in many ways i mean is it classical and yet i mean i think you have heard about people like that even. i'm not sure if you're familiar with the their seven report in this report it did say very clearly that it is genetic mutations that are changed biologically by radiation and they've shown it with plants mice and bacteria so if you follow that through then there probably is genetic instead of transmitted by you know enough radiation a much radiation that takes it didn't comment in there but in your minute of being a woman that affects your children i can see from that there are seventy four and i don't know. it's never been showed to see yes but it's also been ever shown to see
1:41 pm
not. namely by said of the woman no i'm wrong it's that it's many a woman truly were those silly faces to leave her for any guy you know why is nine it was and why is that i never i never even. colostomy you know that it's because of the radiation that's when the survivors are told that their children. have no genetical effects and radiation has no genetic backs on the second and third and fourth and so on generations. in the plain words of the survivors we don't trust we know. that they are. us. i don't have any children my own.
1:42 pm
totally children's. two boys. to me she's my great mother and she might have me in my blood one of my she's the reason i turned out to be like this i want to be something i want to do something for my people because i know she is and now our life evelyn is home sick so when she can she visits her mother who lives in the general she has given up hope of ever living on wrong that the atmospheric testing spread reactivity throughout the world mainly in the northern hemisphere not only near the test sites but all over the world and we are still living with the long lived radioactive legacy of that fallout we still have strength from ninety in the girth we have cesium one thirty seven we have plutonium and in the air we have carbon fourteen when it
1:43 pm
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 indicates that the testing of nuclear weapons by both the united states as well as the soviet union and the other countries a test of nuclear weapons has by the year two thousand resulted in approximately four hundred thousand people who either have died will die prematurely of cancer. no space or time can stop the bombs rippling effects it's a boomerang drifting that winds their way. 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 marsh. there is no place for
1:44 pm
ice to write from i read that it's because our lead star family. now there's many many cases of cancer. for the women it's more more i'm in my wife's awareness course. it's true that women generally have a higher cancer risk average we truly 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 a hundred times the risk of adult males from the same relationships. it's fire or remove the nine hundred eighty one could not i remember one time she went quiet for choosing one of her breasts. but she was
1:45 pm
selling the she was going to class chapter and then she came back and i actually shot it where i got it it was a matter which you ordered one on. gto minute he had a run in whenever a bestseller the action an aberration and him. in the early and mid ninety's when the us started to declassify a lot of the information about the testing program that had been classified of 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 bucket share. ok these are are not all that the classified documents they were declassified in
1:46 pm
one thousand nine hundred four if i remember correctly but we just got them. you know ninety eight or ninety nine you know by the like psychopaths is one time there was this project call four point one the united states wanted to 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 evil 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 both valuable if illogical radiation on human beings. various radio isotopes present can
1:47 pm
be traced from the soil through the food chain and into the human beings where the tissue an organ distribution biological half lies and excretion rates can be studied they had to bring in some people from both of the two it. started to get their picture nate were there i use them as a kid in books that's when we purchased and they stood there for hours x. are. 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 one of things about good health care is a people that are receiving their health care at first and i trust in what they're trying to do and trust involves historical context of it
1:48 pm
and so i think there were definite trust assurance. the department of energy stacks more than three million plus big feet of studies on radiation the scientists were so fascinated by this research that from one nine hundred forty seven until the seventies they conducted experiments on the american population itself. people were injected with pantone on those some of the leading health institutions in the 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 in a million useful information all that came out of these pregnant women were given radioactive iron to see the metabolism remarkable body and no children part of it there was a school for supposedly retarded children. a radioactive cereal with fiber these children the president of the health physics society was with this review i can see
1:49 pm
room to your children and he said of course not and so this is the problem of of places like roller there's travel of immediate soil all of us are prepared to be. intimidated a war wiped and sammy. show that the class of travel shark renowned everyone fires because they give me a dog that sounds of all wrong are out slowly in the far. east just to bond because this. they're always said. everybody needs means you know every once in this but something you planted a long long. cloud that means that it was like
1:50 pm
a. countdown. and. it was there. maybe they. are most like it or monster. and they may have maybe been in there we may be like. the people of iran 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 front page gentle policy and being an anti american. i think that would be counterproductive to our issues than our relationship with states i believe americans should provide all the health care to the marshallese.
1:51 pm
because they are responsible for the testing they contaminate in arkansas. so far we have negotiated with them it didn't work out it's not helping much you know as the wrongly piece chase after a health program and the decontamination of their island huge expenditures are made right under their noses yes the islands are still at the heart of the american military research with project at its epicenter. was little was unable base. in support of the testing during the eighty's when the star wars program came into effect questions importance was raised again it became what has been referred to as the catcher's mitt were rockets fired from vandenberg air force base in california would land in the lagoon or in your quadrant. while hanging on to the dream of
1:52 pm
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 today a government under paul martin was committed secretly silently and becoming part of the american missile defense plans and many of us said he waited this really isn't about missile defense this is really about. the first beginnings of the weaponization of space once we got the information. is still sixty five percent favored it was sixty five percent against we forced it to those neighborhoods that we can use no thank you very much we were going to be a part of us as you walk and for. me through the translation strange the lack of current discussions international
1:53 pm
about what all the planning in space is very bad i only have one army of engineers are improving our cellular phones and our communications of the world have another army of engineers are planning the whole are we to destroy what's going on up there . it's tell us that it's a big boys and nothing is like an empty shell are led to believe that is that his army but. i came to trust. that. we have to tell our story because we are a product of nuclear weapons we want to tell the world these are the consequences. i said i almost. i said this is my song. it was since
1:54 pm
i tell the story over and over again so there were. i said to myself. what is my story is it wouldn't while is there for everybody to listen to or if there is no money for it other people are wrong not for the program then what i said share my body to the work. we'll write. good experience. but do something for the people. and not my sacrum all over them are surprised. and pleased they need something in return we don't do business for free i have the kind of family planning. to. carry my family
1:55 pm
by my country there aren't. you when i got about syria in the gulf. war. 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 eyes of those of the wood and their head that there are so many principles of international law which the nuclear weapon by that. will claim they were rarely they haven't said i don't like people can you imagine state
1:56 pm
it goes there are more like us in the room and it's. this payments for everyone only when a company that place i guess. it is my friend. who else is one of my former. grass roots one of my fall down survivors on their kids. there was neither anger nor hatred in the survivors voices just pain a nuclear powers or not 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
