Nuclear Reactor Power Plants Can Violently Explode - A Nuclear Industry Cover-up (17 articles)

    
Research has proven that nuclear
power plants are explosions waiting to detonate, and has shown that the next nuclear power plant
explosion is expected before 2039. During the past ten years, this research has further proven that such
explosions are preventable. However, an industry-wide cover-up thwarts
explosion prevention at nuclear power plants.

Explosions at Three Mile Island (TMI), Fukushima, and other smaller nuclear plant explosions shared a common, preventable cause. Flammable hydrogen exploded when compressed and heated by water that was added too fast during accident conditions. In fact, Fukushima explosions
could have been prevented if the U.S government had not lied to us about TMI explosions. That is, the U.S. government downplayed several nuclear reactor system
explosions by falsely claiming that fires ignited, rather than admitting that
explosions detonated in nuclear reactor systems and a nuclear reactor containment
building. Specifically, Fukushima explosions could have been stopped by adding water slower to nuclear reactors if technology had not been stymied by this U.S. cover-up. Today, with new technology in hand, the nuclear power plant explosion cover-up continues.
Government regulators and officials continue to lie to us. The
President of the American Nuclear Society refuses to print any new safety
information to stop nuclear power plant explosions. The Chairman of the U.S
Nuclear Regulatory Commission provided false information when he refused to implement
new safety procedures and safety equipment to stop nuclear power plant
explosions. Several of the so-called protectors of nuclear safety refuse to
respond at all. These organizations include the U.S. Secretary of Energy, the International
Atomic Energy Agency, the Nuclear Energy Agency, Japanese nuclear energy regulators, and Japanese nuclear plant operators. This six-year research project has been completely voluntary, since the U.S. Department of Energy decided that nuclear reactor safety does not apply to the U.S. fleet of nearly 100 nuclear power plants. By their continued deceit, these organizations risk the next, approaching nuclear power plant
explosions.

Destructive, Day to Day Hydrogen Explosions in Nuclear Power Plants (9 articles)

    
Hydrogen explosions blow up inside nuclear power plants, and these explosions cause varying degrees of damage. Pipes have been obliterated. Pipes have been cracked. Nuclear fuel has been damaged. The full scope of damages to nuclear reactor systems is unknown, since nuclear regulators and nuclear plant operators refuse to act to stop these ongoing explosions.

A 2039 prediction for the next nuclear power plant disaster remains intact, but routine hydrogen explosions detonate at any time.

Nuclear Threats in Nuclear Power and Nuclear Missile Defenses. (10 articles)

    
Nuclear threats to our lives date back for decades. Catastrophic nuclear power plant explosion cover-ups date back to the 1979 Three Mile Island explosions. Nuclear missile system failures date back to 2000, but failures have decreased since 2014. As shown in the figure, nuclear missiles are far more detrimental to life.
Resulting directly from these publications, 1,448,800 people were reached during an initial broadcast concerning military explosion threats to the Zaporizhzhia nuclear power plants. This interview also discussed imminent explosion threats to world-wide nuclear power plants. (The George Elias Radio Show, Click Here, click here). Such a break in the mainstream Press for this series of articles has not been achieved with respect to failed U.S. nuclear missile defenses.

A Fight to Stop Nuclear Power Plant Explosions (3 articles)

    
An eleven-year-long fight to stop nuclear power plant explosions still meets incredible resistance. False statements, lies, and cover-ups are typical by government agencies, such as the US Nuclear Regulatory Commission and the International Atomic Energy Agency. To protect this multi-trillion dollar industry, even the so-called protectors of nuclear safety - The American Nuclear Society - make false claims to censor nuclear safety information. An incoming nuclear power plant explosion before 2039 can be stopped, and smaller, ongoing nuclear power plant explosions can be stopped as well.
Two of the numerous 2011, explosions at Fukushima Daiichi, Japan are shown, where radioactive dust blasted around the globe. Identically caused, but smaller, hydrogen explosions occurred at Three Mile Island in 1979, and the ensuing US government cover-ups hid the scientific information needed to prevent these subsequent Fukushima explosions. In short, the Fukushima explosions could have been prevented.

Even though explosions were covered-up after the melting of the nuclear reactor core at Three Mile Island, nuclear power plant construction was stopped for decades due to an extremely negative public perception of nuclear safety, where protests against nuclear erupted all over the world. As nuclear energy has gained more public support, the appearance of nuclear safety has become more important than nuclear safety itself. Accordingly, my research findings are vehemently fought, and the end result is that small explosions continue, and the next major nuclear power plant explosions is ignored. Stop the next Fukushima-type nuclear power plant explosion!

Luxury Tours France Frauds Enlighten Banking Industry Frauds (6 articles)

    
A series of Op Eds document the crimes committed against my wife and I by Luxury Tours France, where I was threatened with false imprisonment if I did not succumb to extortion. More importantly, as I performed an investigation of these frauds, I determined that the FBI does not investigate any frauds that are less than $100,000, and the banking industry endorses such frauds through their policies.
Banks endorse criminals by accepting false claims as fact, even when customers object. Also, banks rename these frauds as billing disputes and scam acknowledgements, where such actions are, in themselves, acts of fraud.
Per Merriam Webster, fraud is defined as 'deceit, trickery specifically: intentional perversion of truth in order to induce another to part with something of value or to surrender a legal right'. This definition pervades this series of articles, where bank actions have been clearly described.
There were two purposes for these Op Eds. The first purpose was to recover stolen funds, and this effort was nearly 90 percent effective. The second purpose is to prevent such thefts against other people, and the success or failure of this effort is yet to happen. 
To parallel this investigation, the following email was sent to Luxury Tours France.
'As a thief and a liar, you are rather insignificant, but you may have some minor importance to describe international internet [frauds] and credit card frauds. A series of Op Eds clearly documents the lies and crimes that you committed against my wife and I. My most recent Op Ed describes how thieves like you are robbing people in the U.S. and across the globe. There are so many thieves like you that law enforcement cannot keep up with your crimes. This new Op Ed is titled 'U.S. Banks and the FBI Harbor Criminal Fraud Enterprises'. Perhaps this new Op Ed will stop a few thieves like you.'
As usual, Luxury Tours France did not respond to this letter of complaint, nor did they answer another 20 complaint emails before this complaint.

The Lie of 'Tactical Nuclear Weapons (5 articles)

    
For decades, the U.S. and Russia have claimed that tactical
nuclear weapons are justifiable for battlefield use. However, these weapons are,
in fact, nuclear bombs that execute mass murder. The scope of mass murder in a
nuclear war is incomprehensible. Make 'the bomb' against the law!

None of Us Are Safe From Nuclear Weapon Murders (4 articles)

    
U.S defenses against nuclear war can be breached to murder our citizens if nuclear missiles are fired at the U.S. Russia has missiles and bombs that can kill millions in a single blast. North Korea has bombs that can kill hundreds of thousands in a single blast, and North Korea continues to improve nuclear missiles and nuclear bombs. Both nations have many nuclear warheads to be used in a nuclear war. Tests of U.S. nuclear missile defenses have experienced failures, and such a failure during a  nuclear weapon attack can kill thousands or hundreds of thousands of people.

'Water Main Breaks Can Be Stopped - Period!

Every American city suffers from preventable water main
breaks. Every year, 250,000 US water main breaks cost taxpayers $60 billion. To
this day, water main breaks are responsible for E. coli and Listeria infections
along with copper and lead contaminations.
We are misinformed that water main breaks are caused by
cold weather, road traffic, or oldness. Southern cities claim that cold weather
breaks their pipes, where pipes are buried feet underground, and frost lines are
only a few inches deep. Forces from road traffic are woefully inadequate to
break pipes. Oldness does not break anything - otherwise - New York skyscrapers
would collapse.
We have been provided such nonsensical causes for water
main breaks for a century. The time has come to apply science rather than
fiction to stop our water main breaks.
To this end, I proved and published that a phenomenon
called water hammer breaks water mains. When valves, fire hydrants, and water
pumps are operated, repeated high pressure water hammers crack water mains.
Geysers then rip upwards through our roadways, or leaks scour out dirt under
roads to cause road collapses.
Simplified recommendations are available. See 'Water-Main Breaks in Mississippi and Across [the] U.S. Can Be Stopped'
