Fukushima meltdown update: Cesium in the soil, ocean waters contaminated and fuel core meltdown now under wayThe battle to save Fukushima is now over, as Japanese officials admit the nuclear power complex must now be abandoned and entombed

It has now been revealed that Japan's nuclear disaster preparedness plans were written by complete morons.

Do you see shades of the TITANIC at play here?


No.

All your oversized, gaudy flashing neon headlines are speculative panic-mongering. None of those website have any credibility and even if they did, they do not say what you claim they say,..or at worst, refer only to a hypothetical scenario.

I repeat...:There are not "three meltdowns underway"...and Japanese authorities have not "given up the fight": neither have they agreed to "entomb the reactor in concrete".I'm afraid its hard to take your posts seriously any more.


U haven't changed much have you bacasper?

None of Space Bar/bacasper's sources have credibility, eh? Yet he was right once again.

OTOH, maybe ZIFA was right. There weren't three meltdowns. There were three melt-throughs!

Worse than meltdown, government report says devastating 'melt-through' has occurred at Fukushima; Official suggests Japan could become 'uninhabitable'

Thursday, June 09, 2011 by: Ethan A. Huff, staff writer

(NaturalNews) Recent reports confirming that Reactors 1, 2, and 3 of the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear facility completely melted just hours after the devastating earthquake and tsunami hit the area on March 11 (http://www.naturalnews.com/032537_F...) have been trumped by even worse news that those same reactors have all likely "melted through," a situation that according to Japan's Daily Yomiuri DY is "the worst possibility in a nuclear accident."

And senior political official Ichiro Ozawa suggested in an interview with The Wall Street Journal (WSJ) that the Fukushima situation could make the entire country of Japan "unlivable."

A nuclear core meltdown involves nuclear fuel exceeding its melting point to the point where it damages the core, leaks out, and threatens to potentially release high levels of radiation into the environment. However, a nuclear melt-through is an even worse scenario, as nuclear fuel literally melts through the bottom of damaged reactor pressure vessels into out containment vessels -- and possibly even melts through those outer vessels directly into ground, air, and water.

The report suggesting that melt-throughs have already occurred, which is set to be submitted to the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA), is the "first official recognition" of this dire situation, according to DY. It also confirms early suspicions that such a scenario had been underway all along, as later reports confirmed that the epic disaster at the reactors had produced holes in come of the plant's core containment vessels, and that radioactive water, and possibly even fuel, were leaking into the lower vessels.

IAEA has already stated that the Fukushima disaster is at least as bad as the Chernobyl disaster (http://www.theatlanticwire.com/glob...), but this new information now suggests that it is probably even worse. At this time, it is unknown whether the fuel that has accumulated in the outer containment vessels has seeped outside, where it has the potential to contaminate groundwater supplies and wreak widespread environmental damage.

In an interview conducted prior to the release of the new report, Ichiro Ozawa told the WSJ that areas around Fukushima were already becoming completely "uninhabitable." He also suggested that as it currently stands, much of the rest of the country, including Tokyo, could suffer the same fate if nothing is done to properly and effectively contain the situation.

Or is it true? Hey people. is Bacaspar/Spacebar/ Abe Scrap batting a 1000? If not, can you point out any instances?

Caniff, chalk up another one for BC/SB/AS. I see you haven't gotten a counterexample yet, either.

Was this earthquake intentionally triggered via HAARP?

New NASA research points to possible HAARP connection in Japan earthquake, tsunami

Friday, June 10, 2011 by: Ethan A. Huff, staff writer

(NaturalNews) Recent data released by Dimitar Ouzounov and colleagues from the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Maryland highlights some strange atmospheric anomalies over Japan just days before the massive earthquake and tsunami struck on March 11. Seemingly inexplicable and rapid heating of the ionosphere directly above the epicenter reached a maximum only three days prior to the quake, according to satellite observations, suggesting that directed energy emitted from transmitters used in the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP) may have been responsible for inducing the quake.

Published in the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) publication Technology Review, the findings are presented alongside a different theory called Lithosphere-Atmosphere-Ionosphere Coupling, which hypothesizes that the heating in the ionosphere may have been caused by the impending earthquake as the fault line released radioactive radon. This theory, of course, is not actually proven, but is instead presented as a possible explanation for the presence of the high-density electrons and emitted infrared radiation that was observed.

Another explanation for this strange heating -- and one that, upon analysis, seems much more likely -- is that it was an indication that concentrated energy was used to induce the earthquake, and not the other way around. Numerous credible reports and scientific observations reveal that HAARP technology is fully capable of being used as a scalar weapon, meaning it can emit strong electromagnetic pulse bombs that can alter weather or trigger seismic fault lines.

Evidence that HAARP is not only capable of inducing earthquakes, but that it appears to have been used on Japan...

Oh look, its that unmistakeable leap from cautious, logical thinking to shrill, irrational doom-mongering.

Hello bacasper/Abescrap/Spacebar/jodemas2.



So who was it exactly, that remote-control-destroyed Japan with new tectonic weapons at the touch of a button? The Russians or the Koreans? or was it james bond.

How many times have we heard that one before? But it is especially ironic now right after he was proven right again about the melt-throughs!

But people, please help with this dilemma: whom should I believe, NASA and MIT, or Julius? Rolling Eyes

Do you always refer to yourself in the third person, bacasper/FriendleeGhost?

You stated that someone deliberately triggered the earthquake and tsunami. Who was it? The KGB?

Unlike the conjecture you rae engaging in here, my posts are based on empirical evidence, in this case from MIT and NASA.

The readings of unusual energy patterns around the area of the earthquake only tell us it was likely it was triggered by human activity. It does not tell us WHO did it.

Do you not believe that humans can trigger earthquakes?

This is a particularly pitiful conclusion.

The phenomenon of man-made earthquakes is not even controversial. The European Seismic Agency even held a symposium on Induced Seismicity late last year, and there are just tons of information on it.

Radiation Expert Predicts More Threats
Quote:

TOKYO�A former nuclear adviser to Japanese Prime Minister Naoto Kan blasted the government's handling of the crisis, and predicted more revelations of radiation threats to the public in the coming months.

In his first media interview since resigning his post in protest in April, Toshiso Kosako, one of the country's leading experts on radiation safety, said Mr. Kan's government has been slow to test for dangers in the sea and to fish, and has understated certain radiation threats to minimize clean-up costs. In his post, Mr. Kosako's role was to advise the prime minister on radiation safety.

Quote:

"Come the harvest season in the fall, there will be a chaos," Mr. Kosako said. "Among the rice harvested, there will certainly be some radiation contamination�though I don't know at what levels�setting off a scandal. If people stop buying rice from Tohoku � we'll have a tricky problem."


Quote:
If the government had set the lower ceiling he had advocated, thousands of schools would have required a full cleanup. With Mr. Kan's ruling party struggling to gain parliamentary approval for a special budget, the costlier option didn't get traction, he said.

Yokohama school kids fed beef from Fukushima

Quote:
Children from nursery schools and kindergartens up to junior high schools in Yokohama City had already been fed the beef from Fukushima since late April. Then the news of radioactive beef from Minami-Soma City broke a few days ago.

The news, which had been dismissed by many as "baseless rumor" and some sort of "urban legend" in Yokohama and elsewhere, has finally been reported on Mainichi Shinbun Japanese more or less (less) on July 12.

Yet another conspiracy theory comes true. Ho hum.
