Mystery Radiation Detected ‘Across Europe’ - Ed Jewett - 12-11-2011
Mystery Radiation Detected Across Europe'
November 12th, 2011Via: ABC News:The hunt is on for the source of low level radiation detected in the atmosphere "across Europe" over the past weeks, nuclear officials said today.
Trace amounts of iodine-131, a type of radiation created during the operation of nuclear reactors or in the detonation of a nuclear weapon, were detected as early as three weeks ago by Austrian authorities and then two weeks ago by the Czech Republic's State Office for Nuclear Safety. Today the International Atomic Energy Agency released a statement revealing similar detections had been made "in other locations across Europe."
The IAEA said the current levels of iodine-131 are far too low to warrant a public health risk, but the agency still does not know the origin of the apparent leak and an official with the agency would not say where else it has been detected. Considering iodine-131 has a radioactive decay half-life of about eight days, continued detection means the leak occurred over a period of several days at least and is possibly ongoing.
The IAEA said it does not believe the radiation was left over from the nuclear disaster at Japan's Fukushima Daiichi plant in March and the Czech Republic's State Office for Nuclear Safety said it was unlikely to have been caused by an incident at any nuclear plant's core. A meltdown there, the Czech agency said, would have released several other radioactive isotopes in addition to iodine-131.

Hmm......odd and troubling. I'll look into the wind patterns over the last week and try to find locations that detected it. My hunch is it is not from Japan - leaving the rest of the World and more likely either a nuclear test or a very strange 'event', as other isotopes should have been detected along with it, but [?] apparently have not....or they aint saying. The radiation itself [unless in high levels] is not so dangerous [but not a good thing either for one's health], but is a sign of something big that happened not long ago! It could also be a false-flag job....say someone will soon say it was from an Iranian nuclear test.....but it was the someone who will state it that just released it from their own black labs. Cynical me.
