A remotely operated vehicle investigates the Komsomolets submarine in the Norwegian Sea
มุมมอง 2Kปีที่แล้ว
Once the shining star of the Soviet navy, the one-of-a-kind Komsomolets submarine boasted a titanium hull that could avoid detection by radar. After a fire broke out onboard, it sank in the Norwegian Sea in April 1989, killing 41 crew members. In 2019, Norway's Institute of Marine Research and the University of Bergen sent down a remotely operated vehicle to investigate the submarine which lies...

For Brittanie Van Zant, the possibility of one day dying in a nuclear war is not at the top of her list of worries.

The Hiroshima and Nagasaki Bombings Were Not a Necessary Evil. And the Hibakusha are Living Proof.

Some arrived in wheelchairs. Even the ones who walked carried scars from burns they received during the nuclear blast. Haruka Noishiki met them when she was just nine years old on a school field trip to Nagasaki. They are called the Hibakusha-survivors of the United States' World War II nuclear attack on Japan. For Noishiki, the Hibakusha embodied what was considered self-evident in Japan-that ...
Nuclear Weapons are Killing Black Communities Right Now

It’s no coincidence they put dangerous, toxic, polluting industries-including sites that manufacture nuclear weapons-just up the river from communities of color. Cancer in Burke County, GA is 20% higher than in the rest of the country. What’s happening here is environmental racism. This is why we need to #StopInvestingInDestruction.

Food Waste: The World's Dumbest Environmental Problem
Arthur Harris "The Nazis entered this war under the rather childish delusion that they were going to bomb everybody else and nobody was going to bomb them. At Rotterdam, London, Warsaw, and half a hundred other places, they put that rather naive theory into operation. They sowed the wind and now they are going to reap the whirlwind. Cologne, Lubeck, Rostock-Those are only just the beginning. We cannot send a thousand bombers a time over Germany every time, as yet. But the time will come when we can do so. Let the Nazis take good note of the western horizon. There they will see a cloud as yet no bigger than a man’s hand. But behind that cloud lies the whole massive power of the United States of America. When the storm bursts over Germany, they will look back to the days of Lubeck and Rostock and Cologne as a man caught in the blasts of a hurricane will look back to the gentle zephyrs of last summer. It may take a year. It may take two. But for the Nazis, the writing is on the wall. Let them look out for themselves. The cure is in their own hands. There are a lot of people who say that bombing can never win a war. Well, my answer to that is that it has never been tried yet, and we shall see. Germany, clinging more and more desperately to her widespread conquests and even seeking foolishly for more, will make a most interesting initial experiment. Japan will provide the confirmation. But the time is not yet. There is a great deal of work to be done first, and let us all get down to it." Bombing couldn't win a war, he knew that, but it sure the hell wrecked the Germany and Japans ability to wage industrial war
In Japan, you shouldn’t learn about Nagasaki and Hiroshima until you learn about what 9 million plus Chinese that died in Japan’s imperialistic war on the mainland of Asia. The Japanese, like the Germans, were not victims in The Second World War.
The leadership in Japan, as opposed to the IJA leadership stationed in China, mostly attribute, at least in part, the surrender in August to the bombs. The support for the idea that Soviet intervention was what broke the camel’s back when you consider that the Soviet Navy was strategically insignificant. The Soviets didn’t pose a threat to Honshu, and it was on Honshu where power ultimately lay. Had the bombs not been dropped, the war may have continued for months, resulting in the starvation of millions in Japan, China, South, and East Asia, in addition to the military and civilian deaths that would be incurred in continued combat operations.
Our government just sucks. They knew there’d be a fallout from this and they did it anyway.
Looks like it's in a pretty good shape (except for the exploded bits). Very little corrosion so far. All the expensive titanium they used to build it was worth every penny. Lifting it might indeed be a challenge but I wonder if selling all the titanium as scrap at ~$6250/ton might cover the costs. The price is fluctuating a lot so it might even double if they waited for the right moment. The nuclear reactor and the torpedoes would definitely add risks and ramp up the recovery costs...
There is no doubt there were a lot of people in New Mexico who were impacted by this and probably got cancer from their exposure, but if you look at the maps of the fallout, it didn't hit Tularosa at all so it's suspicious that Tina is pushing for the people of Tularosa to be compensated unless they went to the blast site. There was zero fallout in Tularosa according to all the maps. Las Vegas, NM which was a lot further away had quite a bit of fallout even into SE Colorado. Places in NM that were hit the hardest by the fallout were Carrizozo, Corona, Vaughn and Santa Rosa. Even Albuquerque got more than Tularosa (which got zero). Yes, if people drove to the location out of curiosity they were probably exposed as were the scientists who were stupid enough to look at the blast site directly days after the explosion, but reports of ash falling on the town of Tularosa is not substantiated at all. It was close to the location but the winds did NOT go in that direction. They were traveling in a NE direction and Tularosa is SE of Trinity site. Snip: "Chuck Wiggins, director of the New Mexico Tumor Registry, has said data shows cancer rates in Tularosa are around the same as other parts of the state." The Nevada test site detonated over 1,000 nuclear bombs and the fallout from those hit many towns in NV and Utah way, way harder than NM and even in those areas, cancer rates were only slightly higher than the average in the US. This is a very important subject and people need to be compensated, but please be honest about which places were impacted and don't throw a town into the discussion just because they grew up there and someone they knew got cancer. Cancer kills 1 in 4 people globally. She is doing very good work for a lot of people but she should stick to the facts.
Being old, I do not plan on activism. But we can all make a great difference with our lifestyle and food. For example, I eat mostly local and organic and nothing pre made. Nothing. I do not cook either. Actually, food comes prepared. Turning food into entertainment is harmful to you and to the planet. Yes, I also have a garden with fruits and vegetables. I do not use hygiene products or anything that comes in a plastic container. I reuse my plastic bags for shopping. I hardly have any garbage at all as I compost and don't have much else. My kitchen is hardly used and is therefore always clean, saving on heat, hot water, and much more. I turn my hot water on only when I need it for shower or laundry, and I hang my laundry to dry; outside in the summer and inside in the winter. Clearing our air and climate goes hand in hand with cleaning our own health, banning human made foods and unnecessary products. Bread and pasta do not grow on trees nor run in the forest. Same for chips and other products that create pollution in the making. The making, cooking, cleaning... all take lots of energy and the making of all the many kitchen tools, storing, packaging and delivering them... tracks…can you imagine how much we can reduce pollution by going back to eating only real, local food in its original form. And no, you don't have to be vegan. Millions eat raw animal foods too, from organic, local grass fed (which means enhancing air quality) animals. And you can cook sporadically, just not constantly. But if you are vegan, do not eat processed vegan foods but real organic plant foods. And the way to avoid body care products; don't put on your skin what you cannot eat. It goes through into your body, polluting it too and the production, packaging and delivery is very polluting and creates endless garbage too. Many foods are great cleaners of hair and skin. Humans existed before the body care industry. And last: When you do the above, you can avoid polluting and harmful medications. So, even if you are not an activist or a politician, you can do your part in your personal life.
And yet, Japan bow to America.. look around the world. Iraq, Libya, Egypt, Afghanistan.. Yemen, Somalia, Africa.. whenever USA is involved.. countries will be destroyed.
Japan has never repented of its crimes to the Koreans and the Chinese. This girl is an ignoramus.

Sorry but there is no ending to war

Sadly the A bomb won’t be history but they Will only get bigger
Sadly a bomb won’t be history but there will be better ones
they still produce propaganda to justify it even today, to manipulate the new youth. Everybody who says it's ok to kill millions to save a couple more millions doensn't know what morality is.
Had Truman targeted military targets with the nuclear bombs, their use may have been justified. However the intentional targeting of civilian cities is beyond evil. The U.S. government today considers the intentional bombing of civilian populations as both a war crime and an act of terrorism.
The nuclear weapon will be the end of us
Ya, just give us more money ! 💰
Very informative 👍
I saw youre video on how to dismantle a nuclear bomb, it takes more than one person to launch a nuclear weapon from the US, a second person, almost like a ships XO to concur with the president, or it cant be launched, depending on what staff are alive or present at the time, there's a list of succession, and only a few people have Gold Codes( Gold Codes are generated daily and provided by the National Security Agency (NSA) to the White House, The Pentagon, United States Strategic Command and TACAMO. For an extra level of security, the list of codes on the card includes codes that have no meaning, and therefore the president must memorize where on the list the correct code is located. The concept behind the codes is that they permit the president to positively identify themself as the commander-in-chief and thereby authenticate a launch order to the National Military Command Center (NMCC)then you have to take into account the 6 man chain of command and the men,2 must turn the keys at the same time...anyone of these people can stop it from happening, even at the launch site, but that would just be turned over to the secondary missiles, which all of them would go from DEFCON 2 to DEFCON 1. and SAC would oversee this. the president and another high-ranking official, such as the vice president or secretary of defense, must jointly authenticate the order to use nuclear weapons.(Nuclear-defense policy)if there's nobody else willing to give their Gold Code , the launch can not be authenticated,and the Football wont work without a second Gold code, there is a hierarchy of succession in the event.what's scary is the 3rd of the list is the Speaker of the House of Representatives, which is why nobody will impeach Biden or Harris,Some say on the inside there is a plan to impeach Biden and turn over control to Harris. becuase that would make Speaker of the House the VP.whats even more disturbing is, anyone can be voted in as the Speaker of the House, you don't have to hold office or work from the Government. which there's been a buzz after the Midterms when the Dems will suffer major losses, and the reason why Trump is saying he might not run again, is because there's been talk of voting him Speaker of the House...
And then you can add all the people(USAF to Military Advisors) who determine when to contact the President to even open the football..
I don't know about the environmental racism but I do agree that nuclear weapons are unnecessary Also great video❤
So true. So sad.
Then these true believers, who honestly ACTUALLY think this, should LOGICALLY have ZERO problem with a third world war. Period. Like that pathological genocidal maniac Bill Gates, they BELIEVE that "there are too many people on earth". Yet these same hypocrites, who worship the dirt and insist it's a woman's right (if not responsibility) to kill the unborn, absolutely fill their pants at the very thought or mention of war. Why is that? Just like the pipe dream of some globally "unified" colossal PEOPLE PEN, where everyone is CONTROLLED and yet somehow "happy" floats in the back of their tiny little behaviorally engineered minds, the possibility of avoiding war prances like a unicorn in their dreams. I notice that these who CLAIM the world is "overpopulated" make no effort to VOLUNTEER to "reduce" their part in it. I guess mommy dirt NEEDS them (of course)...
Climate change as there pushing on us is a lie it's just part of the natural process the Earth goes through every so many thousands of years it heats and cools itself it's all BS

FOOD WASTE AND GRAVEYARDS OF ABORTED BABIES, INFANTICIDE & CHILD ABDUCTION: This is what over-zealous population culling, and mass kill-off and die-off look like. This is what it leaves behind. Hidden, out-of-sight graveyards all over the planet filled with millions upon millions of rotting unsold cars, bikes, motorcycles, home appliances; and even millions of tons of unseen, unsold food wind up in mountains of landfills tucked away and out-of-sight. These graveyards of unsold goods and food would not exist on a planet with a human population trending towards 9 billion. As real-world population trends toward 4 billion and lower, this condition of hide the over-production, and cover up the collapsing demand, will worsen. High prices for goods and energy are maintained by manufacturing the perpetual illusion of over-demand for these products by keeping the production lines going, and the graveyards growing, until the last human is gone.
