I’d say that is about right

A close analysis of the hi-res photos reveals that the reactor 3 containment vessel exploded and took the entire spent fuel pool above the reactor with it.

This means, obviously, that significant quantities of plutonium were released, and that the release of radiation from unit 3 alone must be many times higher than has been admitted for the entire
complex – Chernobyl pales in comparison.

This report is claiming that the level of uranium particulates in Japan and countries within 2000 kilometers may be dangerous.

The truth is starting to get out.

This thread needs a bump – this radiation may be heading our way if it isn’t here already.

And that’s on the MSM.

The whole topic ticks me off.

Japan screws us time and time again.

One cow in Washington state gets mad cow disease in 2003 and Japan cuts off beef from the US, sending our cattle industry into a tail spin.

They kept their bans in effect even after other countries eased up, and when the *did* back of a little bit – in Jan of this year! – they did so in a way that still keeps most US beef out.

“Japan was the largest market for American beef in 2003, when it restricted imports because of the cow in Washington State. That animal, now famous as “the cow who stole Christmas” because news of its infection broke right before the holidays, essentially shut down the United States export market, as some two dozen other countries followed Japan’s lead.”

“’In one fell swoop, the export market that Japan had helped establish was gone,’ said Mr. Keys, the beef industry consultant.”

“But while other countries have long since eased or reversed their restrictions on American beef imports, Japan’s decision to allow imports only of beef derived from cattle 20 months or younger created a hurdle that was difficult to overcome — most cattle are slaughtered at 24 or 25 months — and costly, because of the paperwork that had to accompany exports to Japan.”

I say it’s time we return the favor and restrict import of all Japanese products out of fear of nuclear contamination. Turnabout is fair play, right?

We already fucked ’em — Fukushima is/was a good ‘ol American (GE) design. Even sounds a bit like Hiroshima.

Just wanted to poke at you a bit with a quote from your very own link:

“The scariest part of Fukushima is not what has already happened; it’s what could still happen. Every day is a desperate effort to keep the plant from melting down. What’s distressing for many is the Japanese government is not overseeing the cleanup.

The government has requested that Tokyo Electric and Power or TEPCO, be in charge of the cleanup. It is a private, for profit, company.“

[Yep, people are admitting that the private sector isn’t as accountable or as likely to do “what’s right for the people” as the govt is. Sorry, couldn’t resist. ;)]
————-

Anyway, I’ve been following this, too, and it is indeed a very scary situation.

Note how public employees [PEER – Public Employees for Environmental Responsibility] are trying to force more transparency and are advocating on behalf of innocent civilians while the higher-up decision-makers in govt (not worker-bee/union types) are working on behalf of the corporations (not taxpayers, and not citizens, in general).

……

“As we noted right after Fukushima happened, this is standard operating procedure for government these days:

When the economy imploded in 2008, how did the government respond?

Did it crack down on fraud? Force bankrupt companies to admit that their speculative gambling with our money had failed? Rein in the funny business?

Of course not!

The government just helped cover up how bad things were, used claims of national security to keep everything in the dark, and changed basic rules and definitions to allow the game to continue. See this, this, this and this.

When BP – through criminal negligence – blew out the Deepwater Horizon oil well, the government helped cover it up (the cover up is ongoing).

The government also changed the testing standards for seafood to pretend that higher levels of toxic PAHs in our food was business-as-usual.

So now that Japan is suffering the worst nuclear accident since Chernobyl – if not of all time – is the government riding to the rescue to help fix the problem, or at least to provide accurate information to its citizens so they can make informed decisions?

Of course not!

The EPA is closing ranks with the nuclear power industry ….

Indeed, some government scientists and media shills are now “reexamining” old studies that show that radioactive substances like plutonium cause cancer to argue that they help prevent cancer.”

………..

Some good information at that last link about the attempted cover-ups and how standards get changed to benefit corporations and limit liability. Gotta make that profit after all, no?

Honestly, I think the Fukushima issue is global – and there needs to be a GLOBAL private/public effort to mitigate the impacts.

[CA renter]

Absolutely. Not sure how to go about it though, since Japan does not want anyone from the outside to get involved/take control.
