*Japan and the U.S. are doing **everything they can to cover up

danger of the Fukushima crisis.*
The Daily Beast notes
<http://www.thedailybeast.com/articles/2013/11/29/japan-s-new-secrets-bill-threatens-to-muzzle-the-press-and-whistleblowers.html>:
The Japanese government, which already has a long history of
cover-ups and opaqueness, is on its way to becoming even less open
and transparent after the lower house the Diet, Japanâs parliament,
passed the Designated Secrets Bill on Tuesday. With new powers to
classify nearly anything as a state secret and harsh punishments for
leakers that can easily be used to intimidate whistleblowers and
stifle press freedom, many in Japan worry that the if the bill
becomes law it will be only the first step towards even more severe
erosions of freedom in the country.
***
Even politicians inside the ruling bloc are saying, âIt canât be
denied that another purpose is to muzzle the press, shut up
whistleblowers, and *ensure that the nuclear disaster at Fukushima
ceases to be an embarrassment before the Olympics*.â
***
The new law would enact harsher punishment to leakers and ominously
would allow journalists who obtained information by âinappropriate
meansâ and whistleblowers to be jailed for up to ten years. The law
would also allow the police to raid the offices of media
organizations and seize evidence at their discretion.
***
The bill has *even grants no longer existent agencies the power to
classify secrets*.
***
Despite the billâs enlargement of the stateâs power over
information, it contains *no oversight* process to act as a check on
ministries and government agencies designating large amounts of
information as âsecretâ for capricious or self-interested reasons.
***
Masako Mori, the Minister of Justice, has declared that *nuclear
related information will most likely be a designated secret*. For
the Abe administration this would be fantastic way to deal with the
issue of tons of radiated water leaking from the Fukushima Daichi
Nuclear Power Plant since the triple meltdown in March of 2011.
*There seems to be no end to stopping the toxic waste leaks there
but the new legislation would allow the administration to plug the
information leaks* permanently.
***
Mizuho Fukushima, *former leader of the Social Democratic Party*,
compared the bill to the pre-World War II Peace Maintenance
Preservation Laws and other Secrecy laws at the time, remarking that
there was a time in police-state Japan when the weather reports
could be considered âsecret.â
ââOnce you open the door to such kind of laws, the government will
have the right to designate anything as a state secret and by
speaking about it or mentioning it, you can be arrested and
prosecuted.â Ms. Fukushima explained, âEspecially during war time,
it was very difficult for defendants and lawyers to fight their
court cases, because they were not told what exactly what was the
state secret that they had been accused of having revealed.â
Outspoken Upper House Councilor Taro Yamamoto, who is known to be a
strong supporter of investigative journalism, minces no words: â*The
path that Japan is taking is the recreation of a fascist state*. I
strongly believe that this secrecy bill represents a planned *coup
dâétat by a group of politicians and bureaucrats*,â he warned.
While his statement may seem alarmist, even *a senior official of
the National Police Agency agrees. âI would say this is Abeâs
attempt to make sure that his own shady issues arenât brought to
light, and a misuse of legislative power*.
***
The Japan Newspaper Publishers & Editors Association, the Civil
Broadcasters Federation, and most major news organizations in
Japanâs have expressed staunch opposition to the bill.
***
*Japan is about to take a giant step back into its oppressive past*.
When one also considers Prime Minister Abeâs stated *ambition to
restart Japanâs nuclear power plants and remove Article 9 from the
constitution, the article which prevents Japan from waging war*, it
seems like the Empire of The Sun may be moving towards darker times.
Indeed, Ex-SKF notes

that :
A citizen was forcibly removed from the balcony in the Diet where he
was observing the debate of the State Secrecy Protection Law in the
Lower House on November 26, 2013, as he shouted his opposition to
the passage of the law. *His mouth was stuffed with cloth so that he
couldnât shout any more while being removed by several guards
against his will*.

Nuclear expert Arnie Gundersen says <http://solarimg.org/?p=1722> that
high-level friends in the State Department told him that Hillary Clinton

continue buying seafood from Japan, despite that food not being tested

The American government /controls/ Japanese nuclear policy
<http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2013/07/u-s-forcing-japan-to-burn-plutonium-in-nuclear-reactors.html>.
And the Japanese would never have proposed such a draconian bill without

of the Japanese bill:
Itâs a positive step that would make Japan a âmore effective
alliance partner.â
Earlier this year, the acting EPA director signed
<http://www.forbes.com/sites/jeffmcmahon/2013/04/10/epa-draft-stirs-fears-of-radically-relaxed-radiation-guidelines/>
a revised version of the EPAâs Protective Action Guide for radiological

âa public health policy only Dr. Strangelove could embrace.â
Whistleblowers at American nuclear facilities (like all other types

Itâs not just nuclear accidents ⦠itâs /everything/.
The American government repeatedly covers up how bad things are, uses
claims of national security to keep everything in the dark, and changes
basic rules and definitions to allow the game to continue. See this

(and here
<http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/305096#ixzz1HsjsqUUn>). As just
one example, the government approved the massive use of a highly-toxic
dispersant to /temporarily/ hide the oil
<http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2012/12/dispersants-make-oil-52-times-more-toxic-than-oil-and-delay-cleanup-of-oil-spills-by-many-years.html>.
The government also changed the testing standards for seafood
<http://blog.al.com/live/2010/09/fdas_standards_for_gulf_seafoo.html> to
pretend that higher levels of toxic PAHs
<http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2010/10/scientists-40-times-more-cancer-causing-toxics-in-gulf-than-before-spill-dispersants-to-blame.html>
in our food was business-as-usual.
The government covers up the disgusting and unhealthy nature
<http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2013/02/giant-food-corporations-work-hand-in-glove-with-corrupt-government-agencies-to-dish-up-cheap-unhealthy-food.html>of
much industrially-produced food.
The governmentâs response to the outbreak of mad cow disease was simple:
it stopped testing for mad cow
<http://100years.upi.com/sta_2004-01-15.html>, and prevented cattle
ranchers and meat processors from voluntarily testing
<http://web.archive.org/web/20040617141433/http://www.abcnews.go.com/sections/WNT/Business/mad_cow_040502-1.html?CMP=OTC-RSSFeeds0312>
their own cows (and see this

and this
<http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2012/04/mad-cow-found-in-california-because-cows-are-being-fed-blood-animal-parts-and-feces.html>)
The EPA just raised the allowable amount of a dangerous pesticide
<http://rt.com/usa/monsanto-glyphosate-roundup-epa-483/> by 3,000%
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=MbZNdOEn6nE> â¦
pretending that it wonât have adverse health effects.
In response to new studies showing the substantial dangers of
genetically modified foods, the government passed legislation more or
less pushing it onto our plates
<http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2013/03/congress-passes-monsanto-rider-pushing-genetically-modified-foods-onto-our-plates.html>.
The Centers for Disease Control â the lead agency tasked with addressing
disease in America â covered up
<http://www.salon.com/news/environment/feature/2009/04/10/cdc_lead_report/?source=newsletter>
lead poisoning in children in the Washington, D.C. area.
The former head of the National Mine Health and Safety Academy says
<http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/04/01/60minutes/main609889.shtml>that
the government whitewashed the severity of the Tennessee coal ash accident.
And after drug companies were busted for using fraudulent data for drug
approval, the FDA allowed the potentially dangerous drugs to stay on the
market
<http://www.propublica.org/article/fda-let-drugs-approved-on-fraudulent-research-stay-on-the-market>.
Indeed, the cynical might say that the main function of government these
days is to throw money at giant corporations and to cover up for them
when their misdeeds are revealed
<http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2013/07/when-bad-government-policy-leads-to-bad-results-the-government-manipulates-the-data-instead-of-correcting-the-policy.html>.

Itâs not just nuclear accidents ⦠itâs /everything/.
The American government repeatedly covers up how bad things are, uses
claims of national security to keep everything in the dark, and changes
basic rules and definitions to allow the game to continue. See this

When BP â through criminal negligence

â blew out the Deepwater Horizon oil well, the government helped cover
it up

(and here
<http://www.digitaljournal.com/article/305096#ixzz1HsjsqUUn>). As just
one example, the government approved the massive use of a highly-toxic
dispersant to /temporarily/ hide the oil
<http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2012/12/dispersants-make-oil-52-times-more-toxic-than-oil-and-delay-cleanup-of-oil-spills-by-many-years.html>.
The government also changed the testing standards for seafood
<http://blog.al.com/live/2010/09/fdas_standards_for_gulf_seafoo.html> to
pretend that higher levels of toxic PAHs
<http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2010/10/scientists-40-times-more-cancer-causing-toxics-in-gulf-than-before-spill-dispersants-to-blame.html>
in our food was business-as-usual.
The government covers up the disgusting and unhealthy nature
<http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2013/02/giant-food-corporations-work-hand-in-glove-with-corrupt-government-agencies-to-dish-up-cheap-unhealthy-food.html>of
much industrially-produced food.
The governmentâs response to the outbreak of mad cow disease was simple:
it stopped testing for mad cow
<http://100years.upi.com/sta_2004-01-15.html>, and prevented cattle
ranchers and meat processors from voluntarily testing
<http://web.archive.org/web/20040617141433/http://www.abcnews.go.com/sections/WNT/Business/mad_cow_040502-1.html?CMP=OTC-RSSFeeds0312>
their own cows (and see this

and this

The EPA just raised the allowable amount of a dangerous pesticide
<http://rt.com/usa/monsanto-glyphosate-roundup-epa-483/> by 3,000%
<http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=MbZNdOEn6nE> â¦
pretending that it wonât have adverse health effects.
In response to new studies showing the substantial dangers of
genetically modified foods, the government passed legislation more or
less pushing it onto our plates
<http://www.washingtonsblog.com/2013/03/congress-passes-monsanto-rider-pushing-genetically-modified-foods-onto-our-plates.html>.
The Centers for Disease Control â the lead agency tasked with addressing
disease in America â covered up
<http://www.salon.com/news/environment/feature/2009/04/10/cdc_lead_report/?source=newsletter>
lead poisoning in children in the Washington, D.C. area.
The former head of the National Mine Health and Safety Academy says
<http://www.cbsnews.com/stories/2004/04/01/60minutes/main609889.shtml>that
the government whitewashed the severity of the Tennessee coal ash accident.
And after drug companies were busted for using fraudulent data for drug
approval, the FDA allowed the potentially dangerous drugs to stay on the
market
<http://www.propublica.org/article/fda-let-drugs-approved-on-fraudulent-research-stay-on-the-market>.
Indeed, the cynical might say that the main function of government these
days is to throw money at giant corporations and to cover up for them
when their misdeeds are revealed

And the American government is censoring reporters at least as much as
Japan
