By Carolyn Baker of Speaking Truth to Power. While mainstream media has been encouraging collective dithering over a possible U.S. government shutdown, the chilling realities of off-the-chart levels of radiation from the Fukushima nuclear power plant disaster, escalating upheavals throughout the Middle East, and surging oil prices have been simmering in the background, remaining the [...]
By Stephen Lendman Daily reports on efforts to contain Fukushima’s disaster remain worrisome. On April 5, New York Times writers Andrew Pollack and Kevin Drew headlined, “Plant Operator Measures Higher Radiation in Sea,” saying: “(C)ompany officials said that seawater collected near the facility contained radiation several million times the legal limit.”

"Most spy thrillers are written from the assumption that we're the good guys who are under attack by bad guys so evil that we're justified in bending the rules to save ourselves from them. Lies, deceit, sabotage, even murder are sometimes necessary to defend peace, justice, and the American Way against (pick one, depending on when the book was written) Nazis, communists, or terrorists...Gaither Stewart offers no such patriotic platitudes in The Trojan Spy.
