Greenland's receding icecap to expose top-secret US nuclear project
9/27/16

Camp Century – part of Project Iceworm – is an underground cold war network that was thought to have been buried for ever

A top-secret US military project from the cold war and the toxic waste it conceals, thought to have been buried for ever beneath the Greenland icecap, are likely to be uncovered by rising temperatures within decades, scientists have said.

The US army engineering corps excavated Camp Century in 1959 around 200km (124 miles) from the coast of Greenland, which was then a county of Denmark.

Powered, remarkably, by the world’s first mobile nuclear generator and known as “the city under the ice”, the camp’s three-kilometre network of tunnels, eight metres beneath the ice, housed laboratories, a shop, a hospital, a cinema, a chapel and accommodation for as many as 200 soldiers....

From 1964 Camp Century was used only intermittently, and three years later it was abandoned altogether, the departing soldiers taking the reaction chamber of the nuclear generator with them.

They left the rest of the camp’s infrastructure – and its biological, chemical and radioactive waste – where it was, on the assumption it would be “preserved for eternity” by the perpetually accumulating snow and ice

"Many people are saying" that Putin is setting up Trump to make the next G7 about his demand for Russia to be back in. Trump is a dumbass who doesn't know enough to think up this stuff on his own. Putin is putting nonsense in his Puppet's head. That's what the Greenland nonsense is all about.

Per French diplomatic official: Macron did not agree to invite Russia to 2020 G7 Reinstatement still conditioned on Crimean issue They agreed to discuss in Biarritz After Putin mtg, feel progress coming on prisoner exchange, demilitarisation Normandy format summit likely in Fall

Scoop: Trump & Macron spoke over the phone today & agreed they wanted to invite Russia to the G7 next year, a sr admin official said. Trump is expected to broach the topic w/ world leaders at the G7. Today Trump told reporters it would be “appropriate” for Russia to re-enter G7.

Wow. Trump says he wants Russia back in G8, rewrites history by saying Russia was expelled because Putin "outsmarted" Obama. (In fact, Russia was expelled because of the illegal invasion of Ukraine.)

This is one of those moments where it is hard to see Trump as anything less than an agent of the Russian government. What possible benefit could the US receive from re-admitting Russia to the G8 while their bad behavior continues? Putin owns Trump.
