British #Chernobyl scientist expelled by #Belarus KGB
by Lee Glendinning, 9 Aug 2004
"A British scientist who has studied the Chernobyl nuclear disaster for more than 10 years has been placed on the Belarussian KGB's "forbidden persons list" and banned from the country for five years.
"Alan Flowers, a professor at Kingston University, was expelled from the former Soviet republic last weekend, just a few weeks after arriving for a lecture tour on an invitation from the state university.
"He had regularly conducted studies, testing radioactive content in soil, and had his visa renewed in March to continue his work in the country.
"Detailing his expulsion for the first time, he told the Guardian that he believed the move was an attempt to gag him by the current #Belarussian government, led by the hardline president, Aleksandr #Lukashenko.

August, 2004: Russia diverted Chernobyl rain, says scientist
"Dr Alan Flowers, who was given 48 hours to leave the country, said 4,000 square miles of Belarus were sacrificed to ensure the safety of Moscow. He claims cold war technology was used to 'seed' clouds and produce contaminated rain so the radiation would not spread as far as the Russian capital."

Apropos of nothing in particular, but still nowhere near enough has been said about the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August of 1945. #nonuclearwar
It's Hiroshima day today. US nuked Hiroshima and then Nagasaki. Close to 200K people died, mostly civilians. The worst massacre in the modern human history. US can never preach democracy and peace in the world with the blood of all those innocent people on their hand.
