Japan..fukushima....it hasn't gone away you know!!!

Well?

What's the conspiracy theory?

shedweller

Maybe its all fixed now. Maybe they cleaned up all the fuel rods that blew all over the place from a gas explosion that should not have happened because of the giant chimmney built to take away hydrogen.
Maybe they cleaned up their computer systems after stuxnet got into them.

The place is fcuked and there is no way to talk about it in anything other than a bad light. So its not talked about.

Corporate mainstream media black out, dumb down and disinformation from the masses about the true severity of this incident.

BTW GE has an interest in Corporate Media so it would be of its interest to keep a lid on matters.

For those that want to know what is really going on out there. here's some good up to date links.

Wow...that's a real media storm..Jaysus.

Mr NoTV

They'd like us to think it's all gone away. The danger this 'hanging accident' poses to the safety of the world is unimaginable. It is not cleared up, not safe yet and probably never will be. The media have turned a convenient blind eye on what was a good little news story a while back - out of sight, out of mind. No doubt the authorities don't want panic but to allow the human race to wallow in ignorance is a disgrace.
Fukoshima was to real accident anyway ... general apathy, shoddy management and bad design led to this abandoned live time-bomb.

I dont think thousands of people would die unless it was a nuclear explosion,you may be getting mixed up there.It was a meltdown.
So i presume any related deaths would be minimal in the first few months and would increase as the years go on.

I have a question for posters here.
Why do you think the japanese government are taking so long to do the obvious? In relation to the number 4 reactor needing immediate attention.

Interestingly(but most likely not true!) the zionist psuedo christian cult i grew up in would say, if armageddon comes there will be a thousand year reign, where Gods people clean up the earth and make it into a paradise.

Out of curiosity is 1000 years about the same amount of time for a global nuclear fallout to be cleared?
According to Ct'ers a few blasts of HAARP should do the trick to set it off.(harp larger joke deleted..too cheesy lol)

''Fukushima, I presume'' yeap still here, still on the map, unlike Atlantis.

The only conspiracy maybe is calling the incident or 'Hazard' an actual disaster, no deaths a few injuries, no nuclear-explosion, no financial loss directly related to it, apart from the power station & costal areas being hit by an earthquake + Tsunami.

i.e. a large forest-fire, burning houses and killing people is a natural disaster, if it burns down a fossil fual electric station, releasing tons of environmentally damaging toxins, the power station is still a hazard not the disaster.

Yes some radioactive material was released, but any effect whatsoever on people or the environment in reality has been minimal (even nill), by putting it into perspective against the effect of the Tsunami on people & the environment, it's just a distraction from the real disaster.

Maybe at most Fukasima could be classed as a near-disaster, but that doesn't sell newspapers.

The sky news corrispondent in Lybia had bullets flying over her head, anti aircraft fire, real movie stuff, then at a cost of a few hundread thousand, jet & helicopter into disaster-Japan, the 20,000 dead and the distruction got boring after a few days, but an impending nuclear explosion live on air, Mushroom clouds, now thats headlines, but after weeks of waiting nothing happened, no mutants or people with blood coming of their eyes, & the stench from all those dead bodies due to teh....eer Tsunami, is getting a bit much, better get back to Lybia.

Nearly 20,000 people died during the quake off northern Japan and following tsunami. That was a disaster.. \ ..Impending doom is much more fun, especially when there is a villain. Somebody to blame.. \... Once the nuke story got running, it was unstoppable. Instead of filming endless actual suffering, photographers in Japan staked out hospitals hoping to find radiation victims to fan their virtual fire of doom

Am not sure what way ur heads wired..comparing a meltdown in a nuclear reactor to a house or forest fire...bonkers stuff.


A release of nuclear radiation on the scale that happened in Japan will take years to fully come to fruition. You obviously watch too many films!! Looking for mutants within weeks..laughable stuff.

Your point is taken, and i can appreciate the sufferign of those who were in that zone at the time.
However unless its a conspiracy theory it is not relevant here and most likely why it may not have a thread of its own.Unless it has and i missed it.

As for the future damage if that reactor 4 goes off...are you saying that its not that serious at all?
Or that something worse has happened.

I guess everything is relative.Alot die from smoking all around the world,yet its totally legal to sell Cigerettes as a product to consume.But there is no post about that here either that i can see.
Nuclear power is a another product of humans that i believe is a bigger risk than its worth.

Again..my point being that there is a serious lack of reporting on a serious nuclear disaster. Have yet to see any documentaries on the nuclear side of the overall disaster.

Look it up. Multiple BBC documentaries and pieces, esp on the anniversary of the tsunami, e.g. "Horizon", "Panorama". Also quite a few on for Discovery, National Geographic, e.g. "seconds from disaster".

Unfortunately...in a modern world..where goods and people are shipped around the world..I think ur view of it being simply a local issue is bizarre to say the least. Optimistic though!

It's largely a local issue. It was 10% to 40% the release of Chernobyl, most of which fell over the Pacific. The Japs are monitoring everything, including food, soil samples, air, ... everything. I mean there have been around 2,000 nuclear weapons tests worldwide, it's well documented and studied, if there was reason to be worried then Fox news and other sensationalist outlets would be all over it.

I told u already I've seen the tsunami documentaries. That's not what I'm on about. I also think ur 10-40% figures relative to Chernobyl are amusing. Where u pluck that from? Why would u say there's such a big exclusion zone around the plant? For the laugh?

A lot of the nuclear weapons testing went on underground. So that figure isnt entirely accurate either.

As for trusting the japs with their figures...they already got it wrong once...hence the problem in the first place!!!

But again, Japan is very much an insular country. Unlike the West they tend to just fix the problem without much fuss. Look at the photos of the highways around Japan directly after the Tsunami, and again just a few weeks later. They were completely fixed up.

The Japanese authorities did stay very quiet at the time about how bad the meltdown was, but that was mainly down to not wanting to cause a mass hysteria, and can you blame them for that?

They built a reactor that wasn't able to cope with a tsunami, in an area that's prone to tsunamis. That doesnt sound too complicated to me.

It was able to cope with tsunami's just not one of that scale. There was negligence and poor planning involved. The other nuclear power plant was hit by the same tsunami but it's backup systems weathered the emergency and it held out.

Ships fail, planes crash, sometimes it's negligence, sometimes it's mother nature, often a combination of the two.. how on earth is that a conspiracy theory?
