Nuclear vets class action, then mysterious closure of their website

Coober Pedy Regional Times Maralinga Anniversary October 15, 1953 – 1967 and nuclear veteran’s website is closed down.

Only a few weeks ago, the Australian veterans of the atomic tests launched a class action against the Australian Federal Government on the basis that at the time of exposing Australian troops to nuclear blasts the Government knew that the exposed troops were placed in danger from internalisation of fission products.

Australian Nuclear Veterans Association’s had an information website until last week at users.bigpond.net.au/anva/, however the website has suddenly been closed down without explanation. The ANVAR Web Site is normally maintained by Australian Nuclear Veterans who were involved in nuclear testing.

The veterans are trying to find a reason for the closure of their Australian Nuclear Veterans website? “Now Telstra tell us that we can no longer have our free space and have offered no explanation, ” said Ric Johnstone of ANVAR. http://cooberpedyregionaltimes.wordpress.com/2009/10/15/nuclear-veterans-disappointed-as-their-website-is-closed-down/
