China's view of Obama's Asian Trip: Failure, Possibly damaged U.S and China relationship. China, Russia taking over Commodities (metals) pricing.

So how much did the U.S. taxpayers spend to send Obama over to Asia?  It was a trip that was suppose to strengthen trade agreements and be a friendly one.

China does not see it as accomplishing any strength in trade agreements and it was anything but friendly from China's eyes.

The People's Daily Chinese news site is the voice of the government there.  They have an article out about how Obama's trip was a failure and possibly damaged China's and the U.S relationship. 

Obama strengthened military agreements with countries that have land disputes with China, Japan, South Korea and the Philippines.   China sees that has being confrontational towards them.

Obama signed a military agreement with the Philippines which China sees as especially threatening. 

"the Obama administration's ongoing plans to militarize issues that are rumbling  in the Asia-Pacific region", and this is "actually playing with fire".

"We have seen Obama press the need for defense cooperation with US allies in   almost every stop of his Asian trip, which illustrates Washington's unchanged   double approach inits dealings with China — dialogue plus coercion," Jia said.

 "The US has said on different occasions that Washington has no intention of   coercive moves against China, and it is necessary to examine the follow-up remarks and actions," Foreign Ministry spokesman Qin Gang said at a news   conference in Beijing on Monday.
The defense deal was signed and announced "when tensions between China and   its neighbors have been rising" and it is "the biggest policy achievement" of   Obama's trip to  Asia, the Washington Post commented.

China also wrote about Obama's visit in Japan and used the words that Obama and Japan are playing with Fire. 

Obama added that US engagement with China "does not and will not be at the   expense of  Japan or any other ally". He also requested Japan's Self-Defense Forces "do more within the framework of our alliance". Undoubtedly,  the US is  easing limits on Japan so that it can play a bigger role in   constraining China,   especially   military roles.America's pursuit of its own private interests at the expense of post war peace is encouraging Japan's excesses. Is America not concerned about bringing troubles   on itself?Of course not. Since the end of World War II, the US has maintained a military   occupation of Japan, guaranteeing US control over the country. The incitement  of   Japanese actions against China is intended to constrain China and   at the same   time keep Japan in check,  thus   increasing its reliance on the US.

The US and Japan are playing with fire in Asia. But the story is much more complicated,given China's situation. 

Today Drudge has the headline that China will surpass the U.S. has the largest economy in the world this year.  That wasn't suppose to happen until 2019.

Look at how the world views the U.S. now.  They hate us.  The U.S. spies on all leaders of other countries, including those who are suppose to be our closest allies.  The U.S. causes internal problems for their own goals in countries: Egypt, Libya, Ukraine, Iraq, Syria... the list goes on and on.

I really believe the U.S. is trying to slit their own throat now.  The stand against Russia is uncalled for, especially since the U.S. is the one behind the Ukraine revolution.  I believe the U.S. knows it is completely insolvent and everything is being held by threads.  The Fed. has printed who knows how many trillions of dollars.  The U.S. is causing the escalation in Ukraine against Russia so they can blame Russia for the dollar demise?  Is it so people will believe Russia caused the failure of the U.S. and not the U.S. government itself?  What the U.S. is doing against Russia does not make sense as a whole.  Russia can drop the dollar for energy trade and will have many other countries who have already wanted to do so, follow their footsteps.  Countries have been afraid of dropping the petro dollar, as they have seen what happened in Iraq, Libya and any other country that dares attempts to trade energy outside of the dollar.

From all the financial experts I have spoken  with when the crash comes it will be overnight.  It won't be long and drawn out.  The dollar will crash overnight with commodities exploding.

Speaking of commodities, China has an interesting article out about that and metals.   China and Russia will be taking over the control of commodities (gold and silver) on the international stage.   As the big Western banks get out of the commodity (metals) manipulation markets, China and Russia are taking over.  The question is, Will they continue the smash down manipulation of the metals?

Barclays Bank, one of the world’s largest commodities trader, plans to pull out of trading in  base metals, energy and agricultural products, and fold its precious-metals business into its currency-trading unit, as part of an effort to shrink its investment bank and improve   returns.
Morgan Stanley, Deutsche Bank, UBS and Royal Bank of Scotland   have already   reduced   or halted their commodities business. The above five dealers once controlled   about 70   percent of global commodities trading volume.
Now, emerging economies such as China and Russia are occupying   the space in    commodities trading, and striving for a greater say in the action.
The London Metal Exchange approved BOCI Global Commodities (UK) Ltd, the  international arm of Bank of China Ltd as its first Chinese member on April 2012. BOCI was approved for associate broker clearing membership, whereby   members do not have access to ring trading, but can access the market by phone or electronically. In addition Guangzhou-based GF Securities, one of the mainland's ten largest securities firms, acquired   the London-based commodities trading unit of French bank Nataxis for 36    million US dollars on August, 2013.Gu said that the participation of the emerging economies is not only conducive to keeping commodity prices within a reasonable range,   which is determined by   supply and demand,but also to regulating the market and keeping it in good   order.

As China and other emerging markets take part in rule-making and gain more say in commodities trading, at the same time they meet a growing demand for commodities.

Edit to Add:  A mineweb article is out about the London Fixing of Gold and Silver Prices. 

So, the ball is now in China's court with Gold and Silver with Russia having a say in it too.  What will they do with the control?  Will we see the explosion of prices or will we have the same manipulation of prices?  Only time will tell. 

**note** The copying of the articles from the Chinese site will never format properly.  I have tried to get them correct but it does not work.  So sorry about the formatting problem for the quotes from People's Daily. 

Video of TEPCO's Camera on Fukushima. 6am and Bright sunlight... is it really Live now?

I captured this video 10/28/13 of Tepco's camera that is suppose to be live at Fukushima.

I instantly noticed how bright it was and yet the clock on it said 6:04 AM.  I looked up the time of sunrise there and it shows the sunrise was at 6 AM in Japan.

Now.... if the sun was just rising... how could it be so bright there as if it is midday (in my opinion)?

Considering there was a 7.2 EQ and a Typhoon last week, could it be the video is not really live?

Here is the video and you form your own opinion.

7.3 EarthQuake - Japan. By Fukushima. Local Tsunami possible. Some weird shadowing at Fukushima right now.

Yellow shows Tsunami warning area from EQ

7.3 Earthquake just occurred exactly where the March 11, 2011 quake happened.

Some weird shadowing is showing up on the camera and it appears some "steam" or something is now coming out of the reactors possibly.  It is hard to tell exactly what it is I am seeing on the Fukushima Camera.

TEPCO Fukushima live camera is here. 

By the way, this has occurred exactly as the last one had.  Less than 24 hours after an X flare from the sun.  The sun has released 8 M class flares and an X flare in the last 24 hours.

China has seized 1800 TONS of Radioactive metal coming from Japan in one port alone, this year.

Remember Hillary and the U.S. government made a deal with Japan that they wouldn't test or allow radiation testing of food or materials from Japan.  Well China didn't make that deal and they are watching for radiation from Japan.

In one port alone this year, China has seized and isolated 1800 TONS of Radioactive metals/waste materials from Japan in coastal city of Taizhou in east China's Zhejiang Province.

How much radiated materials are being shipped to the U.S. from Japan and it being ignored and not tested?  Are the cars built in Japan radiated?  

Fukushima. The water has officially topped the barrier and freely flowing into the Pacific

TEPCO had said a few days ago that the radioactive water being held by a barrier could top that barrier within 3 weeks and once it did it would flow fast and freely into the Pacific Ocean.

Well, it didn't take 3 weeks but only 3 days for that to happen.

TEPCO announced that the water has now officially topped the barrier that was holding it back.  They have no idea what to do and there is no containing the toxic flow of radioactivity into the Pacific.

Contaminated groundwater accumulating under the crippled Fukushima nuclear power plant has risen 60cm above the protective barrier, and is now freely leaking into the Pacific Ocean, the plant’s operator TEPCO has admitted.

The Tokyo Electric Power Company (TEPCO), which is responsible for decommissioning the damaged Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant, on Saturday said the protective barriers that were installed to prevent the flow of toxic water into the ocean are no longer coping with the groundwater levels.
The contaminated groundwater, which mixes with radioactive leaks seeping out of the plant, has already risen to 60cm above the barriers – the fact which TEPCO calls a major cause of the massive daily leak of toxic substances. 

This is so sad and this is not something that can just be cleaned up.  Our oceans are the Earth's life blood and ours too.  The oceans create oxygen for us.  

I will say over and over again!  SHUT DOWN EVERY NUCLEAR POWER PLANT IN THE WORLD!  IT IS THE MOST TOXIC AND UNCLEAN FORM OF ENERGY THERE IS!

Now all the ocean's marine life will die from radioactivity at some point.  Will we have 100 foot long whales and sharks?  

Why aren't we hearing from governments around the world calling for radioactive testing of seafood from the Pacific?  Why aren't we hearing governments calling for radioactive testing of products from Japan?

Oh, right...... they made agreements not to do that.  Hillary specifically signed an agreement with Japan not to test any food or products coming from there.  

I wonder..... if we sent Obama, Clinton, Biden, Holden and the rest of that gang some salmon and Blue fin Tuna from the shores of Japan if they would eat those gifts from us?  Or...would they have their food tested?

We really should all send seafood to those in D.C. and all of our elected officials and make them eat it.  

Our Earth is being killed and those at the top are the parasites who have made the Earth toxic through greed.  The truth is there has been real alternative energies known for decades by those at the top, but they have kept them away for money and power.  The oil and energy companies have not wanted people to have "free" energy.  This way they control all.  Now what have they done?  They have and are killing the Earth from Greed, pure and simple?

 I wonder if those who control it all are happy?  Does billions/Trillions make you happy?   Does the money make you happy? Does seeing the Earth die and the animals upon it die due your greed make you happy?  When the Earth dies and you can not eat any of the food from the ocean nor land, where will be your control, money and happiness?  

All my life, even when I was a kid I wondered how those at the top were "short sighted" and did not think about the future of the Earth and people when it came to hearing about different news and the "bottom line" at that moment.

Fukushima Reactor 3 on fire and smoking besides Gulf Oil Platform burning

The media of course is silent and most people believe Fukushima problems are history.

Here is a video from overnight at Fukushima. You can see the glowing fire and smoke coming from Reactor 3. That is of course the MOX fuel reactor. Here is my original post about MOX fuel.

A huge amount of radiation has been detected on the West Coast and other areas. Also the amount of radiated water that has gone into the Pacific has been in the millions of gallons.



Here is the live camera for the reactors. It does not show a fire any more.

Besides this there is a platform in the Gulf on fire and leaking oil at an estimated 6000 gallons a day besides natural gas.

OH... the media is all over that one too... informing everyone.

Remembering Japan 2nd Anniversary March 11 2011 Earthquake and Tsunami, Fukushima

I wanted to take a few moments to remember the people of Japan and what they are still going through, two years later.

The earthquake of March 11 2011 is something they are still dealing with today.  The world is still feeling the effects of Fukushima.  Many in Japan still live in temporary shelter that have not been able to move back to their homes in the Fukushima area or had their homes wiped out by the tsunami.

We should all take a few moments and hold them in our thoughts and prayers and hold them in Love.  Remember to hold our planet Earth too in Love and Light for healing!

U.S. secret flights to North Korea with equipment. Threatened Japan, when they found out and asked about it.

All the rhetoric that happens around the world with the U.S. threatening one country or another is most likely all bullsh**.  The U.S. is most likely working with the dictators behind the scenes, except for those they want out now (Syria).

Why do I say that?

The U.S. secretly flew into North Korea last year, providing them with equipment, besides who knows what else (nuclear secrets/bombs?).

Not just that, when Japan figured it out.... this administration threatened Japan and their relations with Washington D.C.!

At the end of the article linked, they "suppose" why the U.S. secretly flew into North Korea.  They said it was "For getting the remains of soldiers from the Korean war."  Give me a break, if that was the reason that information would be all over the U.S. media.  I remember in the 80's the constant news about the U.S. wanting to recover the bodies of soldiers from the Vietnam war.  It was a big deal and was all we heard about for months with them negotiating for the bodies.

What is absolutely outrageous is the U.S. has been giving a horrible dictator equipment and help in who knows what ways.   A dictator that does not allow the people to be free in the least and kills them besides starving them to death.

The same online news site has an article about how Japan knows that the U.S. is holding back information about North Korea's nuclear tests from it's allies, by giving limited or bad data to them.

North Korean camp

North Korea last year made a statement about U.S. and the people's right to own guns.  Needless to say they said "It is evil, for people to own guns in the U.S. because people kill other people with them."  The statement says "The people should not have that right and guns should be controlled."  You really have to laugh, because of course a dictator would say that.  Guns threaten those who want to completely control the people, that is why they have to be taken away.

North Korea has death Gulags/camps where they have an estimated 150 thousand people imprisoned.   Google just released maps of NK with locations of death camps this last month.

We have a right to know along with all other countries what the U.S. is sharing and giving to North Korea.  There are UN resolutions against North Korea and the U.S. had labeled them "Axis of Evil."  


Here are sanctions against North Korea and what is banned from any country trading with them:

• Embargo on arms and related materiel
• Ban on exports of certain goods and technology listed by the UN
• Prohibition of procurement of arms, related material and other goods and technology listed by the UN
• Ban on provision of certain services
• Ban on exports of luxury goods
• Restrictions on admission
• Freezing of funds and economic resources
• Commitment to take cooperative action to prevent illicit trafficking in nuclear, chemical or biological weapons, ballistic missiles and their means of delivery, related materials and technology
• Ban on import and purchase of goods and technology listed by the UN
• List of goods and technology subject to ban on exports and imports (other than luxury goods)

When Japan, a friend and ally figures out that the U.S. is flying into North Korea, they threaten them and the relations between them?   That is unacceptable!  North Korea is just across the Sea of Japan from Japan and they have a right to know if NK is receiving help from the U.S.  and what the U.S. is providing North Korea.

Seems to me, the U.S. now needs to answer to the UN as they have obviously broken the UN sanctions by providing equipment to NK.  The U.S. has become the world bully, which is obvious since the U.S. administration threatened Japan over their secret flights to NK, though I doubt a word will be said about it at the UN.

I don't hold any illusions that the U.S. media will mention these secret flights and threats made to Japan.   What is the U.S. getting out of the secret flights/meetings with North Korea?

North Korea threatened South Korea with "Final Destruction" at the UN. 


Article about the secret missions:

Senior U.S. administration officials held secret talks in North Korea on at least three occasions in 2011 and 2012, The Asahi Shimbun has learned.

Although the visits had potential implications for Japan, Washington did not inform its security partner at the time and only informally confirmed one of them when the Japanese side pressed, government and other sources in Japan, South Korea and the United States said.

The U.S. State Department even warned the Foreign Ministry against making further inquiries, saying they would harm bilateral relations, the sources said.

U.S. military planes flew from an air base in Guam to Pyongyang and back on April 7, 2012, and again on a longer visit lasting from Aug. 18-20, the sources said.

It is believed that those aboard included Sydney Seiler, director for Korea at the U.S. National Security Council, and Joseph DeTrani, who headed the North Korea desk at the U.S. Office of the Director of National Intelligence. DeTrani left the post in May.

They met with North Korean officials and discussed policies following the death of leader Kim Jong Il in December 2011.

The North Korean delegation included Jang Song Thaek, vice chairman of the National Defense Commission and husband of Kim Jong Il's sister. Jang is widely considered to serve as a mentor for Kim Jong Un, who succeeded his father as his nation's leader.

The Japanese government only learned about the flights after receiving reports from hobbyists monitoring activity at military bases and also analyzing air traffic flight plans.

When the Japanese side submitted an official inquiry, U.S. officials expressed frustration that the request had been made, citing the subject's confidential nature. The State Department warned Japan against inquiring further, saying Washington-Tokyo ties could be damaged.

The third visit that The Asahi Shimbun has confirmed is one that took place in November 2011. Sources said at least one military aircraft from the Guam air base loaded heavy equipment, including bulldozers, at Yokota Air Base in western Tokyo and flew to Pyongyang.

It is believed that the delegation included officials from the U.S. Pacific Command. They met with North Korean officials and discussed efforts to recover the remains of U.S. soldiers killed during the 1950-53 Korean War, the sources said.

When Japan inquired about this visit, U.S. officials unofficially confirmed that it had taken place, the sources said.
