   We have no regulation on cookware. Vegetables cooked in Aluminium cookware produce hydro-oxide poison, which neutralizes the digestive juices, producing stomach and gastrointestinal trouble including stomach ulcers and colitis. Non-stick cookware with Teflon causes “Polymer fume fever” characterized by symptoms such as chills, fever, body aches, nausea and occasional vomiting. Most of the glass, porcelain and enamel cookware contain lead. Some of the Stainless Steel is made from scrap metal. Neurotoxins emitted from the radioactive metals like alpha particles cause havoc in our body. Serious life threatening effects from minimal radiation doses are not ‘hypothetical but indeed very real.
   Authorities in the U.S., Germany, France and Sweden have identified Indian steel products contaminated with cobalt-60. 67 shipments of contaminated goods originated in India have been denied entry to U.S. ports in a five year period from 2003 to 2008. In 2008 German customs officials identified a container of contaminated stainless steel bars exported from India to Russia. German customs officials immediately sent back the container to India. Later German authorities seized more than 150 tons of contaminated radioactive bars, steel cables, chippings and valve housings and about 85 tons of contaminated steel have been sent back to India. India imports more than 80% of stainless steel metal scrap for recycling and the most of the contaminated material was exported since sources licensed for use in India are unlikely to get into scrap metal, because of regulatory measures in place. Depending on their radiation levels, recycled metals can be used construction like bridges where the exposure to humans is negligible.
   The increased supply of scrap metal is imported from war zones as close as Iraq and as far as Bosnia and Kosovo and the scrap metal is mostly unsorted and contains live ammunition and explosives. Western countries have either banned scrap metal imports from war zones or have strict rules of entry. Also the western countries have a strong container security system in place. But India does not have a strong container security system in place.
   In 2004 at Bhushan Steel, private foundry based in Ghaziabad 10 workers were killed when the heavy metal scrap they were handling exploded. The blast was caused by live missile, rocket and mortar shells in the imported metal scrap which had come from Iran via Dubai. Hundreds of live and spent shells have been recovered in subsequent checks across in the northern and western parts of India where the majority of steel smelting foundries are based.
   India has become a haven for dumping war and military items including unexploded ordnance. India imports more than a billion dollar worth 200,000 containers containing about 4 million tons of scrap metal every year.

   NT,
   Thank you very much for additioal valuble info for the humanity.
   DO NOT BUT ANY INDIAN RUBBISH should be the slogan for Sri Lankas, whose health is downhill, thanks to corrupt basttard politicians.
   How about A SHOKER LAYLANDS people travelling every day ? Many Indian Stainless products people hanging onto.

   To be honest world Steel is doninated by India with Acer Mittal buying over all euro steels. Even German steel companies own by stuipd Indians.

   In Germany, all the metal contaminated with radioactive cobalt were imported from Vipras Casting of Khopoli Ragad, Bunts Tools of Nashik, Laxmi Steels of Mumbai, SMK Steel of Delhi, Pradeep Metals of Navi Mumbai and Goradia Special Steels of Khopoli.

   Cobalt has poor corrosion resistance to human perspiration and when human perspiration comes in contact with metal handle bars in TATA and ASHOK LEYLAND buses, sweat (and also skin exudates) can oxidize and dissolve metal surfaces including radioactive Cobalt if present.

   BTW 2,900 buses among the 7,600-bus fleet of Ceylon Transport Board need to be replaced in near future.

   BTW talking about buses, APSRTC – the state owned road transport corporation in the state of Andhra Pradesh is buying 12 m long 225 hp 41 seat buses with price tag of 2.7 million Indian rupees from world’s largest bus manufacturer Beiqi FOTON Motor of Beijing City to use in its Indra fleet. Beiqi FOTON Motor has forged an alliance with Hyderabad based Deccan Auto and recently built a 5 billion Indian Rupees bus manufacturing facility at Patancheruvu in Andhra Pradesh.
   FOTON made LPG buses are more suitable for our intercity and intracity commuting than ASHOK LEYLAND or TATA.
   The only competitor available in India with a 12m long 225 hp 41 seat bus is ASHOK LEYLAND which costs 2 million Indian rupees for bare chassis, and another 2 million Indian rupees for luxury bus type body. TATA will be launching its multi-axle PARADISCO coach early 2013 which is very similar to VOLVO 9400.

   Actually Chinese Granites and Marbles have high concentration of radio activity too and chinese do not like local granites due to this issue.

   No surprise.

   If our brain is contaminated by situations, the brain becomes bad. If our brain is not contaminated by situations, the brain becomes good. Good and bad share our brain. When good defeats bad, the whole brain is good. When bad defeats good, the whole brain is bad. The way our brain treats the situations we create “holiness and wisdom”(Good) and “temptations or evil influence”(Bad).

   This item should highlight the dangers of neo-libaral freemarkets and the essentialnature of control and testing. In early eighties, I recall a story from Mexico where there was a group flats which proved to be a highconcentration point in Cancer incidence. Tests linked reinforcement bars used in that block with radioactivvity.

   After much further research it was found that X Ray equipment from a dimolished hospital was used by as scrap metal by the steel plant.

   This was before the rise and and rise of Mittal.

    Recycled steel rebar, accidentally contaminated with discarded cobalt-60, was used in construction of more than 180 buildings containing about 1700 apartments, and also public and private schools and small businesses, in Taipei City and nearby counties in Taiwan. Many Taiwanese victims due to Cobalt-60 contamination have been suffering a number of radiation-related diseases including thyroid problems, chromosome damage, impaired immune effects, impaired growth, physical defects, birth defects, and congenital heart problems.

    In 1989, a small capsule containing highly radioactive caesium-137 was found inside the concrete wall in an apartment building in Kramatorsk, Ukraine. The capsule, originally a part of a measurement device, was lost sometime during late 1970s and ended up mixed with gravel used to construct that building in 1980. By the time the capsule was discovered, 6 residents of the building died from leukemia and 17 more received varying doses of radiation.

    In1998 two cobalt-60 teletherapy sources planned for export in 1993 were instead stored in a warehouse in Ankara, Turkey, then moved to Istanbul, where a new owner sold them off as scrap metal. The buyers dismantled the containers, exposing themselves and others to ionizing radiation. Eighteen persons, including seven children, developed acute radiation syndrome.

    In 1999 a road near Mrima Hill, Kenya was rebuilt using local materials later found to be radioactive. Some workers were exposed to excessive radiation, and many residents of the area were tested for exposure. 3,000 tons of roadway material were dug up to eliminate the hazard.

    In 2010 during a routine inspection at the Port of Genoa, on Italy’s northwest coast, a cargo container from Saudi Arabia containing nearly 25 tons of scrap copper was detected to be emitting gamma radiation at a rate of around 500 millisieverts per hour. After spending over a year in quarantine on Port grounds, Italian officials dissected the container using robots and discovered a rod of cobalt-60 nine inches long and one-third of an inch in diameter intermingled with the scrap.

    I like, “The way our brain treats the situations we create “holiness and wisdom”(Good) and “temptations or evil influence”(Bad)”.

    There is one brain in Lanka web that is always bad, is the big Zionist brain which is contaminated with cobalt-60.

    Zionism was created by Benjamin Ze’ev Herzl and others at the end of the 19th Century, and in that era it was commonplace to be colonialist, to be racist, to be super-nationalist, to adore the nation-state,so the idea of France for the French, Germany for the Germans, and then some state for the Zionists. This all formed the basis for Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionism.

    Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionism and Judaism are contrary to each other. Because Judaism is universal and humane, and Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionism is exactly the opposite. It is very narrow, very nationalistic, racist, colonialist, and all this. There is no “National Judaism.” There is Zionism and there is Judaism, and they are completely different.

    Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionism has nothing to do with Judaism. Because Judaism – a Reform Movement- that is highly, highly ethical. And so, you cannot connect Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionism with “highly ethical.” You can only connect the words “aggressive,” “oppressive,” “stealing,” “robbing” with Zionism. But not “highly ethical.”

    The Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazarian Zionists hijacked governments, currencies, big business, institutions, education, media and minds; got all of us in debt, then collapsed the economy.

    Greedy and ideological Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionists contributed to the growth of the Third Reich via the so-called “Transfer Agreement” – a business arrangement to transfer German Zionists to Palestine. In return, German exports would be bought through Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist entities to ensure the economic growth and wealth of Palestine. Most significant is the success of the 18th Zionist Congress to go against the international boycott movement by suppressing the Revisionists and strong-arming them into abandoning their ideology.

    If the boycott had prevailed, Germany may not even exist today and the Holocaust would have never happened.

    The facts are clear that Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionists made Hitler’s 3rd Reich possible and ultimately spawned the Zio-Fascist and terrorist State that Israel has now become.

    Israeli Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist leaders continue to indulge in the persecution of Jews by falsely claiming that Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionism is a goal of Judaism. It’s time to make a clear distinction between Judaism and Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionism, also known as Zio-Fascism.

    Menakhem Vol’fovich Begin (Menaheim Begin), 6th Prime Minister of Israel said “Our race is the Master Race. We are divine gods on this planet. We are as different from the inferior races as they are from insects. In fact, compared to our race, other races are beasts and animals, cattle at best. Other races are considered as human excrement. Our destiny is to rule over the inferior races. Our earthly kingdom will be ruled by our leader with a rod of iron. The masses will lick our feet and serve us as our slaves.”

    Does this narrative sound familiar to you? Think Nazi.

    The Jewish people has been unique by its identity as a religious entity. Through the centuries its religious character had been a premise agreed upon by Jews and non-Jews alike. Jewish religious and traditional history bears no aspect of racism. Hence, one of non-Jewish origin is capable of being proselytized and attaining the same status as a born Jew. Conversely, one of Jewish birth who does not recognize his being bound to the Jewish Torah, is by Jewish law a heretic, and therefore forfeits his spiritual birthrights as a Jew.

    Through the many years that Jews resided in the Holy Land enjoyed tranquil and cordial relations with the non-Jewish population there.

    The Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist movement which was formed at the latter part of the last century, sought to endow the Jews with a nationalistic character which was heretofore strange to them. It sought to deprive them of their historically religious character and offered a nationalistic ideology and the possibility of establishing through political media, a Jewish national homeland.

    During the period of the British Mandate, the Balfour Declaration, which recognized the eventual possibility of founding a Jewish national homeland, in Palestine, was affirmed to be the British government. The Jewish Agency, who then was the Chief representative of Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist interests in the Holy Land, was entrusted with the issuance of visas to the Holy Land, thus resulting in an increased Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist immigration from various parts of the world, which ultimately succeeded in superceding in numbers, the veteran Orthodox dwellers.

    Orthodox Jewry all over the world and the Orthodox Community in the Holy Land in particular, immediately sensed in this stage of Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist success, the threat of grave danger for the religious future of Jews. The Arab inhabitants began to exhibit open hostility to their Jewish neighbors. The British government failed to distinguish between the Orthodox community, who for generations in habited the Holy Land, and the newly arrived Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist immigrants.

    With the acquisition by the Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist nationalists of the power to organize communities in Palestine, they formed the Vaad Haleumi Leknesset Yisroel (National Jewish Council Committee). This committee ignored the rights of the Orthodox veteran dwellers who did not recognize this validity of Jewish nationality, and whose identification as Jews was solely with their loyalty to their religious heritage. The religious inhabitants, on the other hand, shuddered at the prospects of spiritual disintegration of World Jewry, with the new rise to power of the Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist nationalists.

    The Orthodox inhabitants actively objected to being subject to the authority of the secularists. They appealed their cause to the League of Nations, who consequently granted them a “Right of exclusion” to the subjugation to the Vaad Haleumi, which rights provided that any Jew wishing not to be incorporated into the Vaad Haleumi, may remain lawfully independent if he so stated his wish in writing. Thousands of Jews did so.

    Such was the case until November 1948, when the United Nations finally sanctioned the establishment of a Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist State. Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionists’ success in finally realizing their goal was due in great measure to their having misled the world into viewing the Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist cause as the Jewish cause. The formation of the Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist state resulted in the automatic deprivation of the autonomy heretofore possessed by the Orthodox inhabitants of the Holy Land.

    The origins of the UN can be found in the financing of the same Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist banking families, the Rothschilds, Schiffs, Warbugs, Lazards and Oppenheimers, who have financed strife on this earth for centuries. The UN was created to justify the existence of the Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist entity as a legitimate nation-state, to put a shroud on its hideous supremacist character; this rings true with the fact that the Security Council never even ratified the resolution which proposed the legitimacy of a Jewish ‘state’ in Palestine. Despite this, and despite the illegal Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist colonization of Palestine financed by the Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist Rothschild family since the 1880s and the horrible Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist atrocities of the Nakba in 1948, still the UN recognized this fabricated regime, still gave it a name and a seat. Why? Because its godfathers, the Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist bankers, wanted it that way. The UN is a tool of international Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist power.

    The same UN that introduced Resolution 661 to Iraq, the treacherous ‘sanctions resolution,’ which crippled Iraq, prepared it for the Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist invasion of 2003 and murdered over 2 million people by starvation including 800,000 Iraqi children. The same UN that paved the way for the mutilation of Libya, in which at least 100,000 have been mass murdered by NATO and its Israeli-advised rebel thugs. The same UN that now seeks to turn Syria into another Iraq or Libya 2.0.

    The Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionists grasped in the acquisition of their new powers, the opportunity to openly disassociate themselves from any identification with Jews as a religion. They systematically began to orient the minds of their generations according to the tenets of Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist nationalism. Through the Ministry of Religions they employed part of the Rabbinate to assist them in their aims.

    The religious Jews who by virtue of their faith, clearly contradicted Zionist nationalism, and who had lived peacefully with their Arab neighbors for generations, became unwillingly identified with the Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist cause and their struggle with the Arabs. They requested the United Nations that Jerusalem be designated as a defacto international city. They appealed to the diplocatic corps assigned to Jerusalem – but to no avail. They were hence confronted with the choice of either becoming a part of the Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist State, which diametrically opposed the interests of Jews as a religion, or abandoning the land of which their forefathers were the first Jewish settlers.

    Judaism in its correct form is not a religion of hate any more than are Buddhism. Hinduism, Christianity, or Islam. Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionists however, is a secular, geopolitical system of hate…it is NOT a religion. It is a power cult (hiding behind the Jewish faith) of death, greed, lying, avarice and self-aggrandizement which views with contempt and derision all who do not subscribe or submit to its dogma.

    Today’s Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionists are largely the descendants of the hideous butchers who slaughtered over 30 million Russians. These are the descendants of the murderous thugs who murdered 1.5 million Armenians and do not want to ‘talk about it’. When US Congress voted to recognize the Armenian genocide, the AIPAC and ADL Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionist gangsters swung into action and forced the cancellations of the Resolution. And the US wonders why Armenia does not trust Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionists and US at all.

    These are the conniving, lying, genocidal beasts who wanted Iraq stomped to death by US and UK so Iraqis could not benefit from their own oil and natural gas wealth.

    These are the same demented nuclear terrorists in control of 600 thermonuclear WMD who are now trying to force a war with Iran…even though Russia is already on the record saying that ANY attack on Iran will be viewed as an attack on Russian interests.

    Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionists are always chattering about ‘peace’ but, in reality, it is the LAST thing they want. Peace is not profitable and is simply not going to pave the way for Zionism to dominate the planet. However, divide and conquer just might. This is even all the more mind-boggling to most clueless US tax payers who cannot understand how a minority group of Illuminati Ashkenazi Khazar Zionists within the world’s total Jewish population of about 15 million can have come to control so much of the Western world.
