@Eastmann - "160 deaths were vaccinated."

Thanks for this info.

What about approx 11,000 deaths in January - do you have any info how many were vaccinated ??

Why did Paul McCartney become vegetarian?

Paul has often said that he and Linda became vegetarian after watching lambs gambolling outside their farm window. They pushed their lamb chops aside, and that was the end of their meat-eating days. “It is because we like animals, it's an ethical thing, not really about health,” Paul told Nigel Slater in 2007

Big time !!

73,500,000 ÷ 525 = 140,000 YEN each !!

Is this correct ??

Some people are doubting the vaccines.

Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said Sunday it’s yet to be decided if there’ll be a Biden administration.

In an interview on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures,” Ratcliffe said issues outlined by President Donald Trump’s legal team, headed by Rudy Giuliani, have to be heard in court.

“These election issues, we’ll see who is in what seats and whether there is a Biden administration,” he said.

Trump faces long odds in challenging vote counts

I just now checked the odds for next president on Betfair

Joe Biden is 1.07

Donald Trump is 14

Contaminated water that would reportedly be released into the sea from the wrecked Fukushima Dai-ichi nuclear power plant contains a radioactive substance that has the potential to damage human DNA, a Greenpeace investigation has said.

The environmental group said the 1.23 million tonnes of water stored in more than 1,000 tanks at the plant contains “dangerous” levels of the radioactive isotope carbon-14, in addition to quantities of tritium that have already been widely reported.

The contaminated water to be dumped into the Pacific ocean contains dangerous levels of carbon-14. It concentrates in fish at a level thousands of times higher than tritium and has the potential to damage human DNA.

Thank you for your comments - greatly appreciated.

One stock owner appeared to speak up for Ghosn, stressing Nissan had lost people's trust after ousting him without giving him a chance to defend himself over problems that might have been solved internally, instead appearing to collude with prosecutors and government officials.

Was Ex-Nissan CEO, Now-Fugitive Carlos Ghosn Set Up By Fellow Executives?

Emails and memos suggest a plot to remove Ghosn, who's maintained his innocence.

Waiting for the next episode - when will the truth be known ?

Nice image - I can see one man with no mask.

@Vince Black "Never blindly ride out over a crossing even if you’ve got a green light."

I totally agree. I was just about to post the same advice. I often tell cyclists (especially the younger) always look carefully both left and right even when the walk signal is green.

Thanks

"Nishiyama was indicted after admitting to killing the patient under police questioning in 2004, but she later retracted her confession, saying she had been coerced by investigators."

coerce -

1 to compel by force, intimidation, or authority, especially without regard for individual desire or volition:

They coerced her into signing the document.

2 to bring about through the use of force or other forms of compulsion; exact:

to coerce obedience.

3 to dominate or control, especially by exploiting fear, anxiety, etc.:

The state is based on successfully coercing the individual.

"Judges who dare to find people not guilty get punished professionally." (Hiroshi Segi, a former Supreme Court judge, in his book entitled “The Hopeless Court”). So did Ghosn really have a chance at a fair trial in Japan?

Hiroshi Ishikawa, a former prosecutor: “I was taught that foreigners and gang members have no human rights. I was taught that winning is everything. And with the de facto power to detain someone who insists they’re innocent all the way up to their trial, we usually win. However, that doesn’t always mean that justice is served.”

Dr. Francis Boyle is perhaps best known for authoring the Biological Weapons Act. In an explosive interview with Geopolitics and Empire, Dr. Boyle reveals that the coronavirus now circulating in the wild, exploding as a pandemic, is indeed an “offensive biological warfare weapon.”

In this eye-opening interview, probably soon to be banned by YouTube, Dr. Boyle plainly confirms that the coronavirus is a biological weapon system which escaped the Wuhan BSL-4 laboratory and broke containment in the local population, spreading uncontrollably.

"fairness in the way people are dealt with"

"Fair behaviour and the quality of being fair and reasonable"

"the upholding of what is fair, just, and right"

Group E: Guilty or Innocent aside, Japan’s Legal System needs reform.

Japan's judicial system has come under fire over Ghosn's case. Critics have for years said the prolonged detentions tend to coerce false confessions

"Since the Universal Declaration of Human Rights was adopted here, in Paris, in 1948, the presumption of innocence, respect of dignity and rights of defense have been essential components of what constitute a fair trial."

Iwao Hakamada was born March 10, 1936, in Shizuoka City, Japan.

Hakamada was interrogated and, in August 1966, he was arrested based on his confession and a tiny amount of blood and gasoline found on a pair of pajamas he owned. According to his lawyers, Hakamada was interrogated a total of 264 hours, for as many as 16 hours a session, over 23 days to obtain the confession.

They added that he was denied water or toilet breaks during the interrogation.

At his trial, Hakamada retracted the confession, saying police had kicked and clubbed him to obtain it, and pleaded not guilty.[4]

"I could do nothing but crouch down on the floor trying to keep from defecating," he later told his sister. "One of the interrogators put my thumb onto an ink pad, drew it to a written confession record and ordered me, 'Write your name here!' [while] shouting at me, kicking me and wrenching my arm.

TOKYO (Reuters) - Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe’s promise that the crippled Fukushima nuclear plant was “under control” in his successful pitch three years ago for Tokyo to host the 2020 Olympic Games “was a lie”, former premier Junichiro Koizumi said on Wednesday.

What do you think ?

Climate change hoax COLLAPSES as new science finds human activity has virtually zero impact on global temperatures.

You can buy an electric fan (made in China) @ the home centre for 2,000 Yen.

Would have been the difference between life and death.

Well done girls. Also thanks for taking the video. Also great job the guy that tripped him up.

*8 years on, contaminated water remains big problem for Fukushima clean-up*

Big ? Maybe very big or enormous, huge problem ?

25% by 2030

How about 50% by 2025 ?

A typical pig factory generates the same amount of raw waste as a city of 12,000 people. According to the Environmental Protection Agency, raising animals for food is the number-one source of water pollution.

The Union of Concerned Scientists lists meat-eating as the second-biggest environmental hazard facing the Earth. (Number one is fossil-fuel vehicles.) Globally, animal agriculture is responsible for more greenhouse gases than all the world’s transportation systems combined.

"John, needless to say that I have full confidence in Japanese laws and all decisions based on them."

This statement gave me a good laugh - are you serious?

Or maybe you are just teasing us or maybe joking ??

Mark Karpeles (French businessman) also spent some time in the detention center in Tokyo.

"I wouldn't want this on anyone," Karpeles told CNN. "Not my worst enemy, not even humanity's worst enemy."

Karpeles said he lost 77 pounds (34 kgs) in custody. After the interrogation period came seven months in solitary confinement at a pre-trial detention center in Tokyo.

He remembers every detail of his windowless 6-square-meter (65-square-foot) cell, which had tatami floors, a sink, a toilet, and a small table on which he kept his journal.

Karpeles said he was forced to sit upright in a corner for some ten hours a day. If guards caught him slouching or napping, they would shout through the door. Once, when he failed to comply, he was taken to the padded "punishment room" where his hands were tied behind his back and he was kept on the floor for several hours.

He was released on bail more than two years ago, but he says he's still adjusting to life on the outside.

Carole Ghosn, his wife, issued a statement Thursday

“I am pleading with the Japanese authorities to provide us with any information at all about my husband’s health,” Mrs. Ghosn said. “We are fearful and very worried his recovery will be complicated while he continues to endure such harsh conditions and unfair treatment.”
