Madonna's magical nuclear waste cure

The Kabbalah Centre, which is based in Los Angeles but has branches
worldwide, was set up by Philip Berg, a former insurance salesman.

Dr Artur Spokojny, the director of Oroz and a Kabbalah follower, is
said to have developed a "revolutionary" decontamination agent
called Orodyne, which can reportedly also treat gynaecological problems
in cows and sheep.

Madonna was not available to comment because she is on tour in Germany.

Madonna's magical nuclear waste cure

MADONNA and her husband Guy Ritchie have been lobbying the government
and nuclear industry over a scheme to clean up radioactive waste with a
supposedly magic Kabbalah fluid.

The couple, both followers of the Jewish spiritual movement, approached
Downing Street, Whitehall and British Nuclear Fuels (BNFL) promoting a
"mystical" liquid tested in a Ukrainian lake.

"It was like a crank call . . . the scientific mechanisms and
principles were just bollocks, basically," one official said.

But civil servants at the Department of Trade and Industry (DTI) and
scientists at BNFL were obliged to take the celebrity couple seriously.


It is understood that the couple, who live in London and Wiltshire,
were promoting a water-based solution that had allegedly proved
successful in neutralising dangerous nuclear waste in Ukraine.

The Kabbalah Centre, which is based in California, believes water is a
uniquely important substance that can be given magic healing powers
through "meditations and the consciousness of sharing".

Madonna is said to have approached Downing Street, before being
directed to the DTI. "She relentlessly pursued people," said a
former DTI civil servant. "She wanted to get this Russian scientist
to explain this to civil servants."

But her campaign became bogged down by Whitehall bureaucracy. "It was
a case of pass the parcel," said the civil servant.

Ritchie, the film director, cold-called BNFL and wrote a series of
letters accompanied by scientific papers. A panel of BNFL's best
scientists was tasked with looking into the proposal but could find no
scientific basis for the claims.

The lobbying, which took place a few years ago, was part of a campaign
by Madonna, who saw it as her mission to rid the world of nuclear
waste. She made this clear in newspaper interviews at the time.

"I mean, one of the biggest problems that exists right now in the
world is nuclear waste," she said. "That's something I've been
involved with for a while with a group of scientists - finding a way
to neutralise radiation, believe it or not."

The Kabbalah Centre, which is based in Los Angeles but has branches
worldwide, was set up by Philip Berg, a former insurance salesman. One
devotee has described how Berg leads chants of "Chernobyl" and the
names of other nuclear power plants. Followers believe this helps
"heal the problem of nuclear waste".

Undercover reporters who attended a Kabbalah Centre dinner in London
described how Madonna and Ritchie were among guests who turned east
towards Chernobyl and began shouting its name.

Some Kabbalah followers are even said to believe that nuclear waste is
the cause of the Aids epidemic.

Madonna has said: "According to science we aren't going to have a
planet in about 50 years at the rate we're going with nuclear waste.

"I can write the greatest songs and make the most fabulous films and
be a fashion icon and conquer the world, but if there isn't a world
to conquer, what's the point?

"I've just come to a place in my life where I'm trying to really
see what the big picture is and where my energy is better spent, and
that's one area I'm really concerned about."

The Kabbalah Centre is believed to have sponsored Oroz, a
"23rd-century" research body in New York that heralded a
"breakthrough" in neutralising radioactive waste.

Dr Artur Spokojny, the director of Oroz and a Kabbalah follower, is
said to have developed a "revolutionary" decontamination agent
called Orodyne, which can reportedly also treat gynaecological problems
in cows and sheep.

Three years ago the research centre claimed it had experimented with
the agent in Lake Glyboke near Chernobyl and had successfully
decontaminated the water.

BNFL says it was approached by "a Mr Ritchie" at that time. Ritchie
was told by one senior executive that the scheme defied the laws of
physics but he persisted and was referred to a team led by Sue Ion,
BNFL's executive director of technology, said to have "a brain the
size of a planet".

The industry is trying to find ways to dispose of enough waste to fill
five Royal Albert Halls, with more on the way if plans for new nuclear
power stations go ahead, so anyone with a viable solution could expect
a sympathetic hearing.

Paul Vallance, director of communications for British Nuclear Group,
the nuclear clean-up arm of BNFL, said: "If Mr Ritchie, or anyone
else for that matter, has such a solution we would be more than happy
to speak to them."

Madonna was not available to comment because she is on tour in Germany.


A spokeswoman said: "I've spoken to Guy's office and I don't
think he is going to be available to talk about this . . . I don't
think it's top of the list of things they are working on at the
moment."

Great idea!

Let's sent the has-been ***** ***** to Yucca Flats for a
demonstration. Obviously she's a nuclear physicist with a clear
insight into radioactive decay.

Hawking's must be doing wheelie's in his chair!
