Here is a letter we received from a relative who returned from Tokyo on 15 April. It gives some insights into the current situation.

Thanks for the thoughts! Yes, they certainly have a hard road to travel even if nothing new occurs.

I went to Tokyo as part of a team trying to assess how we might help with the reconstruction phase, and build up new capabilities which would create more resilience in the Miyagi communities for the future. The piece I led covered crisis management, transparency of communications, and some economic development ideas. We did something similar after the Chile earthquake last year.

The nation (and Tokyo itself) seems very subdued. Some people are visibly struggling with the idea that they have somehow caused a problem for the world at Fukushima. Some are resentful of the thought that they might actually need help. And the Ministries are jockeying for position at the same time as they lack ideas about what to do. They are still trying to assess the whole complex web of connected economic challenges that have arisen - and it's not just the obvious like factories destroyed, workers displaced, etc - e.g. half the Japanese restaurants in Hong Kong have closed down in the last month.

There were some aftershocks at 6+ to the east of Honshu that you could feel in Tokyo - but with their building codes (no better city to be in if you have to have an earthquake!) what you feel is I imagine rather like being on a liner in a storm, the building sways, moves, creaks - disconcerting, sure, but not really frightening, because, after all, what can you do?

There are two things that worry me - first, when the aftershocks might become preshocks to a large quake with Tokyo at the centre. That of course has always been a worry, and there is no scientific basis for saying it is any more likely now, but intuitively it's bothering. Secondly the Dai Ichi plant continues to have problems. There are proposals in from consortia to do the clean up (20 to 30 years) but they assume a stable and improving situation which is not there yet. Rather like the BP gulf spill - until they visibiy capped the leak, they couldn't effectively do much else. There have been proposals to cover the site with cement, bomb it into the sea, who knows what.

I do feel for the Japanese, I have some Japanese friends there (and here) and I always enjoyed their culture and company. They are certainly in a national post trauma state right now, which is both bad and good - especially if it means they will treat this as a moment to become more open. I'll probably be back there before long if they accept parts of the report we are writing.

Latest Fairewinds Assoc. Arnie Gunderson update from yesterday, Monday April 18: Based on his data interpretation, Reactor 2 has major breach, Reactor Bldg 4 fuel storage pool appears to have ongoing uncontrolled reactions -- NOT what the public is being told thru mainstream 'news'. IOW, sameold FUBAR, looking even worse than many gloomy predictions.

Tepco starts to pump out turbine unit
Radioactive water removal very risky, to run into May

By KANAKO TAKAHARA
Staff writer

Tokyo Electric Power Co. started Tuesday pumping highly radioactive water at its Fukushima No. 1 nuclear plant's reactor 2 turbine building to a nearby storage facility, a crucial step toward restoring the reactor's dedicated cooling system, the government nuclear watchdog said.

Because key equipment to activate the cooling system is located in the basement of the turbine building, workers can resume efforts to restore the cooling system once the radioactive water is pumped out.

"We believe there is no other option but to transfer the radioactive water to the storage facility," said Hidehiko Nishiyama, spokesman for the Nuclear and Industrial Safety Agency.

There is now about 25,000 tons of highly contaminated water in the turbine building and in an underground trench.

Tepco plans to pump 10,000 tons of radioactive water with more than 1,000 millisieverts per hour of radiation to the second-floor basement of the storage facility by around May 14. The storage facility is located about 800 meters from the No. 2 turbine building.

"Although the risk of radioactive leak (by transferring the water out of the turbine building) is not zero, measures have been taken to reduce that risk," another NISA official said.

Tepco laid as much as possible of the hose inside the turbine buildings of units 3 and 4 in case the radioactive water leaks out, NISA said.

Tepco waterproofed the storage facility and checked whether it could withstand an earthquake similar to the one on March 11, NISA said.

The utility said it will do its best to seal the entrance to the basement to keep seawater out in the event another tsunami strikes.

Tepco is also planning to install a water-purifying system to reduce the levels of radiation and salt in the highly contaminated water, NISA said, adding the purified water is expected to be used to cool the fuel rods again.

It is believed water previously pumped in as a stopgap measure to cool the fuel rods leaked into the turbine building through the trench and a storage pit crack and then out into the ocean. That leak has been patched but disposing of the water proved a big headache for Tepco.

The storage facility seemed an ideal, if temporary, option, but low-level radioactive water was already being stored there. With the approval of NISA, Tepco earlier this month decided to dump the less contaminated water into the sea to make room for the highly radioactive water in the No. 2 turbine building. The move triggered strong criticism from the international community, including South Korea and Russia.

Meanwhile, remote-controlled U.S. robots inspecting the reactor 2 building to check the radiation level detected 4.1 millisieverts per hour just inside the entrance to the ground floor, Tepco said.

High humidity between 94 to 99 percent prevented the robots from checking the radiation level further inside.

Two robots, one with a radiation detector and the other with a video camera, were sent inside the building Monday. But because of the humidity, the camera lens fogged up and couldn't check the detector beyond the entrance, NISA said.

Separately Monday night, Tepco said it detected high radioactivity coming from the spent fuel pool of the No. 2 unit, indicating that either the fuel rods in the pool were damaged or steam containing radioactive materials that rose from the reactor dissolved in the pool water.

Some 160,000 becquerels per cubic cm of cesium-134, 150,000 becquerels of cesium-137 and 4,100 becquerels of radioactive iodine-131 were detected in a water sample extracted from the storing pool on Saturday.

Normally, these radioactive substances are not present at all.

"Nearly a million people have already died as a result of Chernobyl, despite what W.H.O. says, and the I.A.E.A. This is one of the most monstrous coverups in the history of medicine. Then we extrapolate through to Japan. Japan is, by orders of magnatude, many times worse than Chernobyl."

~ Dr Helen Caldicott




Biography

The single most articulate and passionate advocate of citizen action to remedy the nuclear and environmental crises, Dr Helen Caldicott, has devoted the last 38 years to an international campaign to educate the public about the medical hazards of the nuclear age and the necessary changes in human behavior to stop environmental destruction.

Born in Melbourne, Australia in 1938, Dr Caldicott received her medical degree from the University of Adelaide Medical School in 1961. She founded the Cystic Fibrosis Clinic at the Adelaide Children's Hospital in 1975 and subsequently was an instructor in pediatrics at Harvard Medical School and on the staff of the Children's Hospital Medical Center, Boston, Mass., until 1980 when she resigned to work full time on the prevention of nuclear war.

In 1971, Dr Caldicott played a major role in Australia's opposition to French atmospheric nuclear testing in the Pacific; in 1975 she worked with the Australian trade unions to educate their members about the medical dangers of the nuclear fuel cycle, with particular reference to uranium mining.

While living in the United States from 1977 to 1986, she co-founded the Physicians for Social Responsibility, an organization of 23,000 doctors committed to educating their colleagues about the dangers of nuclear power, nuclear weapons and nuclear war. On trips abroad she helped start similar medical organizations in many other countries. The international umbrella group (International Physicians for the Prevention of Nuclear War) won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1985. She also founded the Women's Action for Nuclear Disarmament (WAND) in the US in 1980.

Returning to Australia in 1987, Dr Caldicott ran for Federal Parliament as an independent. Defeating Charles Blunt, leader of the National Party, through preferential voting she ultimately lost the election by 600 votes out of 70,000 cast.

She moved back to the United States in 1995, lecturing at the New School for Social Research on the Media, Global Politics and the Environment, hosting a weekly radio talk show on WBAI (Pacifica), and becoming the Founding President of the STAR (Standing for Truth About Radiation) Foundation.

Dr Caldicott has received many prizes and awards for her work, including the Lannan Foundation's 2003 Prize for Cultural Freedom and 21 honorary doctoral degrees, and she was personally nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by Linus Pauling - himself a Nobel Laureate. The Smithsonian Institute has named Dr Caldicott as one of the most influential women of the 20th Century. She has written for numerous publications and has authored seven books, Nuclear Madness, Missile Envy, If You Love This Planet: A Plan to Heal the Earth (1992, W.W. Norton) and A Desperate Passion: An Autobiography (1996, W.W. Norton; published as A Passionate Life in Australia by Random House), The New Nuclear Danger: George Bush’s Military Industrial Complex (2001, The New Press in the US, UK and UK; Scribe Publishing in Australia and New Zealand; Lemniscaat Publishers in The Netherlands; and Hugendubel Verlag in Germany), Nuclear Power is Not the Answer (2006, The New Press in the US, UK and UK; Melbourne University Press in Australia) and War In Heaven (March 2007). Dr. Caldicott’s most recent book is the revised and updated If You Love This Planet (March 2009).

She also has been the subject of several films, including Eight Minutes to Midnight, nominated for an Academy Award in 1981, If You Love This Planet, which won the Academy Award for best documentary in 1982, and Helen’s War: portrait of a dissident, recipient of the Australian Film Institute Awards for Best Direction (Documentary) 2004, and the Sydney Film Festival Dendy Award for Best Documentary in 2004.

Dr Caldicott currently divides her time between Australia and the US where she lectures widely. She founded the US-based Nuclear Policy Research Institute (NPRI), which evolved into Beyond Nuclear, of which Dr Caldicott is Founding President. Beyond Nuclear aims to educate and activate the public about the connections between nuclear power and nuclear weapons and the need to abandon both to safeguard our future.

Dr Caldicott can be heard discussing urgent planetary survival issues on her weekly radio show If You Love This Planet, and is the Founder and Spokesperson for People for a Nuclear-Free Australia, established to represent the millions of Australians who uphold the strong belief that there should be no uranium mining, nuclear power plants or foreign nuclear waste in Australia.

Dr Caldicott is also a member of the International Scientific Advisory Board advising José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero, Prime Minister of Spain.

I think those are actually night video and the glare is from the town turning on street lights.



on the first video up above, if you page past all the "hplaserjet2001" spam... here's a good comment...

it's a time lapse long exposure shot of a town turning on its street lights  overnight...allthough I must admit it had me pretty effing stumped for a little while. those things you see shooting off to the sides are cars/trucks, and the thing shooting up out of the volcano/mountain is a satelite (I would guess) this video is playing at X 80 fast forward (again, rough guess)


maybe not even shot at night. not sure how they'd get all that color with night video.

wild looking video though!

Here's what I have been doing. I have been unrelatedly researching the advent and popularity of the microwave oven, originally named by Raytheon, the "RadaRange". And these posts of late got me to thinking. I shall google microwave oven+conspiracy, just to see what sticks.

First, some of the hits I've been finding on the surge of microwave tech in the home. We have a few more, but my associate did not tag his properly.

http://classifiedhumanity.com/tagged/microwave%20oven

Now for some things I found on google:

Carcinogens in microwaved food
In Dr. Lita Lee’s book, Health Effects of Microwave Radiation – Microwave Ovens, and in the March and September 1991 issues of Earthletter, she stated that every microwave oven leaks electro-magnetic radiation, harms food, and converts substances cooked in it to dangerous organ-toxic and carcinogenic products. Further research summarized in this article reveal that microwave ovens are far more harmful than previously imagined.
The following is a summary of the Russian investigations published by the Atlantis Raising Educational Center in Portland, Oregon. Carcinogens were formed in virtually all foods tested. No test food was subjected to more microwaving than necessary to accomplish the purpose, i.e., cooking, thawing, or heating to insure sanitary ingestion. Here’s a summary of some of the results:

* Microwaving prepared meats sufficiently to insure sanitary ingestion caused formation of d-Nitrosodienthanolamines, a well-known carcinogen.
* Microwaving milk and cereal grains converted some of their amino acids into carcinogens.
* Thawing frozen fruits converted their glucoside and galactoside containing fractions into carcinogenic substances.
* Extremely short exposure of raw, cooked or frozen vegetables converted their plant alkaloids into carcinogens.
* Carcinogenic free radicals were formed in microwaved plants, especially root vegetables.
* Decrease in nutritional value

Russian researchers also reported a marked acceleration of structural degradation leading to a decreased food value of 60 to 90% in all foods tested. Among the changes observed were:

Deceased bio-availability of vitamin B complex, vitamin C, vitamin E, essential minerals and lipotropics factors in all food tested. Various kinds of damaged to many plant substances, such as alkaloids, glucosides, galactosides and nitrilosides.The degradation of nucleo-proteins in meats.
Industry’s action to hide the truth
As soon as Doctors Hertel and Blanc published their results, the authorities reacted. A powerful trade organization, the Swiss Association of Dealers for Electro-apparatuses for Households and Industry, known as FEA, struck swiftly in 1992. They forced the President of the Court of Seftigen, Canton of Bern, to issue a "gag order" against Drs. Hertel and Blanc. In March 1993, Dr. Hertel was convicted for "interfering with commerce" and prohibited from further publishing his results. However, Dr. Hertel stood his ground and fought this decision over the years.
Not long ago, this decision was reversed in a judgment delivered in Strasbourg, Austria, on August 25, 1998. The European Court of Human Rights held that there had been a violation of Hertel’s rights in the 1993 decision. The European Court of Human Rights also ruled that the "gag order" issued by the Swiss court in 1992 against Dr. Hertel, prohibiting him from declaring that microwave ovens are dangerous to human health, was contrary to the right to freedom of expression. In addition, Switzerland was ordered to pay Dr. Hertel compensation.
Who invented microwave ovens?
The Nazis, for use in their mobile support operations, originally developed microwave "radiomissor" cooking ovens to be used for the invasion of Russia. By being able to utilize electronic equipment for preparation of meals on a mass scale, the logistical problem of cooking fuels would have been eliminated, as well as the convenience of producing edible products in a greatly reduced time-factor.
After the war, the Allies discovered medical research done by the Germans on microwave ovens. These documents, along with some working microwave ovens, were transferred to the United States War Department and classified for reference and "further scientific investigation." The Russians had also retrieved some microwave ovens and now have thorough research on their biological effects. As a result, their use was outlawed in the Soviet Union. The Soviets issued an international warning on the health hazards, both biological and environmental, of microwave ovens and similar frequency electronic devices.
Other Eastern European scientists also reported the harmful effects of microwave radiation and set up strict environmental limits for their usage. The United States has not accepted the European reports of harmful effects, even though the EPA estimates that radio frequency and microwave radiation sources in America are increasing at 15% per year.

[CTRL] Fwd: MICROWAVE MADNESS - OUTLAWED IN RUSSIA

Bill Kingsbury
Wed, 20 Jan 1999 07:58:37 -0500

-Caveat Lector-

-------- forwarded message --------
From: [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Subj: MICROWAVE MADNESS

This article received on 1/14/99 from John Thomas, author
of "Young Again! - How To REVERSE The Aging Process,"
1-800-231-1776.


THE EFFECTS OF MICROWAVE APPARATUS ON FOOD AND HUMANS

Microwave cooking ovens were originally researched and
developed by German scientists to support mobile operations
during the invasion of the Soviet Union. Had they perfected
electronic equipment to prepare meals on a mass scale, the
Nazis could have eliminated the logistical problems
connected with cooking fuels while producing edible products
in far less time than they could using traditional
campfires.

After the war, the Allies discovered the medical research
and documentation concerning these apparatuses. The papers
and experimental microwave equipment were transferred to the
U.S. War Department and classified for reference and
scientific investigation. The Soviet Union also retrieved
some of the devices and began to experiment on them
separately.

The Russians - who have done the most diligent research into
the biological effects of microwave ovens - have OUTLAWED
THEIR USE and issued an international warning about the
biological and environmental damage that can result from the
use of this and similar-frequency electronic apparatus.


MEDICAL RESEARCH SUMMARY

The most significant German research concerned with the
biological effects of microwaves was done at the Humboldt
Universitat zu Berlin in 1942-43, during the Barbarossa
military campaign. Beginning in 1957 and continuing up to
the present, Russian studies in the field have been
conducted at the Institute of Radio Technology.

In most research, the foods were exposed to microwave
propagation at an energy potential of 100 kilowatts per
cubic centimetre per second to the point considered
acceptable for sanitary normal ingestion.

The observations made by the German and Russian microwave
researchers will be presented here in three categories:
cancer-causing effects, destruction of nutritive value and
biological effects of direct exposure of humans to microwave
emissions.


1. MICROWAVED FOODS CAUSE TUMORS

The following effects have been observed when foods are
subjected to microwave emissions.

Effects on the foods themselves

Meats: Heating prepared meats sufficiently to insure
sanitary ingestion creates d-nitrosodiethanolamine, a
well-known cancer-causing agent.

Proteins: Active-protein, biomolecular compounds are
destabilized.

Increase In Radioactivity: A "binding effect" between
the microwaved food and any atmospheric radioactivity is
created, causing a marked increase in the amount of alpha
and beta particle saturation in the food.

Milk and Cereals: Cancer-causing agents are created in the
protein-hydrolysate compounds in milk and cereal grains.

Frozen Foods: Microwaves used to thaw frozen foods alter
the catabolism (breakdown) of the glucoside and galactoside
elements (see Note 1).

Vegetables: Even extremely brief exposure of raw, cooked or
frozen vegetables to microwaves alter alkaloid (see Note 2)
catabolism.


Resulting effects on the human body

Digestive System: The unstable catabolism of microwaved
foods alters their elemental food substances, causing
disorders in the digestive system.

Lymphatic Systems: Due to chemical alterations within food
substances, malfunctions occur in the lymphatic system,
causing a degeneration of the body’s ability to protect
itself against certain forms of neoplastics (cancerous
growths).

Blood: A higher-than-normal percentage of cancerous cells
in blood serum (cytomas) can be seen in subjects ingesting
microwaved foods.

Their residual magnetism effect can render the psychoneural-
receptor components of the brain more subject to influence
by artificially induced, microwave-radio-frequency fields
from transmission stations and TV relay networks.

Free Radicals: Certain trace-mineral molecular formations
in plant substances - in particular, raw-root vegetables -
form cancer-causing free radicals.

Increased Incidence of Stomach and Intestinal Cancers:
A statistically higher percentage of cancerous growths
result in these organs, plus a generalized breakdown of the
peripheral cellular tissues and a gradual degeneration of
digestive and excretory functions.


2. MICROWAVES REDUCE FOOD VALUE

Microwave exposure caused significant decreases in the
nutritive value of all foods studied. The following are
the most important findings to date.

Vitamins And Minerals Made Useless: In every food tested,
the bioavailability (see Note 3) of the following vital
nutrients decreased: Vitamin B complex, vitamins C and E,
essential minerals and lipotropics.

Vital-Energy Fields Devastated: The vital-energy-field
content of all tested foods dropped 60 to 90 percent.

Digestibility of Fruits and Vegetables Reduced: Microwaving
lowers the metabolic behaviour and integration-process
capability of alkaloids, glucosides, alactosides and
nitrilosides (see Note 4).

Meat Proteins Worthless: It destroys the nutritive value of
nucleoproteins (see Note 5) in meats.

All Foods Damaged: It greatly accelerates the structural
disintegration of all foods tested.


BIOLOGICAL EFFECTS OF MICROWAVES

Exposure to microwave emissions also has a negative effect
upon the general biological welfare of humans. This was
not discovered until the Russians experimented with highly
sophisticated equipment and discovered that humans can be
adversely affected without even ingesting the foods that
have been subjected to microwave radiation.

MERELY ENTERING THE ENERGY FIELD OF THE FOOD causes such
harmful side effects that the Soviets outlawed all such
microwave apparatus in 1976.

Here are the effects observed in humans having "direct"
exposure to microwaves, that is, without their having
consumed the irradiated food substances --

Life-energy Field Breakdown: Persons near microwave ovens
in operation experience a breakdown in their life-energy
fields which increases relative to the length of exposure.

Cellular Energy Decreases: The cellular-voltage parallels
of individuals using the apparatus degenerate - especially
in their blood and lymphatic serums.

Destabilized Metabolism: The external-energy activated
potentials of food utilization are both destabilized and
degenerated.

Cell Damage: Internal cellular-membrane potentials during
catabolic processes into the blood serum from the digestive
process degenerate and destabilize.

Brain Circuitry Destruction: Electrical impulses in the
junction potentials of the cerebrum degenerate and break
down.

Nervous System: Nerve/electrical circuits degenerate and
break down while energy-field symmetry is lost in the neuro-
plexuses (nerve centers) in both the front and rear of the
central and autonomic nervous systems.

Loss Of Bioelectric Strength: The bioelectric strengths
within the ascending reticular (see Note 6) activating
system (the system which controls the function of waking
consciousness) go out of balance and lose their proper
circuiting.

Loss of Vital Energies: Humans, animals and plants located
within a 500-meter radius of the equipment in operation
suffer a long-term, cumulative loss of vital energies.

Nervous and Lymphatic System Damage: Long-lasting residual
magnetic "deposits" become located through-out the nervous
system and lymphatic system.

Hormone Imbalances: The production of hormones and the
maintenance of hormonal balance in both males and females
becomes destabilized and interrupted.

Brainwave Disruption: Levels of disturbance in alpha-,
delta- and theta-wave signal patterns are markedly higher
than normal.

Psychological Disorders: Because of the disarranged brain
waves, negative psychological effects also result. These
include loss of memory and the ability to concentrate,
suppressed emotional threshold, deceleration of intellective
processes and interruptive sleep episodes in a statistically
higher percentage of individuals subjected to continual
range- emission field effects of microwave apparatus, from
either cooking apparatus or transmission stations.


POTENTIAL USE IN MIND CONTROL

Due to the creation of random, residual magnetic deposits
and binding within the biological systems of the body
(nervous and lymphatic systems damage) which can ultimately
affect the neurological systems (primarily the brain and
nerve centers), longer-term depolarization of tissue
neuroelectronic circuits can result.

Because these effects can cause virtually irremissible
damage to the neuroelectrical integrity of the various
components of the nervous system (see Note 7), ingestion of
microwaved foods is clearly contraindicated in all respects.

Their residual magnetism effect can render the psychoneural-
receptor components of the brain more subject to influence
by artificially induced, microwave-radio-frequency fields
from transmission stations and TV relay networks.

Soviet neuropsychologists at Uralyera and Novosibirsk (see
Note 8) have theorized the possibility of psychotelemetric
influence (i.e., affecting human behaviour by transmitting
radio signals at controlled frequencies), causing subjects
to comply - involuntarily and subliminally - with commands
received through microwave transmissions acting upon their
psychological energy fields.

For this reason, and due to the 28 other contradictions
listed above, the use of microwave apparatus in any form is
definitely ill-advised. Present scientific opinion in many
countries clearly opposes them, as exemplified by the
mentioned Soviet Ban.

Just some possibly interesting observations, that I am kinda researching right now.

America went nuts over the microwave oven for quite some time and it was fed by a lot of, what is looking to be weird to me now, propaganda -- not normal marketing. I haven't owned one in years.


My grandparents had thee first Radar Range (grandfather was a highly technologically-savvy aviator, FAA regional chief and attempted whistleblower on a UFO coverup, which I wrote about in another thread) and continued to use it well into the 90's. I never thought there was any way that thing was safe, it was big, heavy, and didn't seem very well shielded. It also gave off a very distinctive odor, that I would know if I came in contact with, but find hard to describe. Like steel, rice, and ozone.

My grandfather did die of cancer in 2000, but we all thought that was more a physiological result of the house arrest he was placed on after his retirement as a result of his court case with the FAA. My grandmother is still alive today, in her 90's, and got rid of the Radar Range, thankfully.

Nuclear Bombs were being Built under Fukushima - Very Interesting Case Laid out

Former Editor of Japan Times - Says Nuclear Bombs were being Built under Fukushima - Very Interesting Case Laid out

Via} sherriequestioningall
http://sherriequestioningall.blogspot.c ... -says.html

have read at times about a nuclear bomb possibly being built under Fukushima Nuclear Power plant in Japan and pretty much disregarded them as simply "conspiracy" people were wanting to add to the melt down of the reactors.

I ignored many mentions of it until this morning. An article caught my eye from Yoichi Shimatsu, who was the editor of Japan Times Weekly, on Global Research website.

I had questioned myself and did not understand why Fukushima Nuclear Power Plant had just begun using Mox Fuel in reactor 3 this last September (2010) when the Nuclear Power plant was going to be completely taken off line this month (April 2011) and the plant was going to be decommissioned. Something bothered me about TEPCO bringing in the most toxic substance known to man (MOX fuel - with plutonium) for such a short amount of time of use. It did not make sense, for them to bring in fuel rods that stay hot for years even after a reactor is taken off line...... why do that?

Yoichi Shimatsu, puts it together where it makes sense and yes it weaves what many would call conspiracies, but remember conspiracy is only that until it is proven. Time and time again, conspiracies have been proven to actually be truth in the world history.

Portions of Article: (go to link to read full article - very interesting information)

A fire ignited inside the damaged housing of the Unit 4 reactor, reportedly due to overheating of spent uranium fuel rods in a dry cooling pool. But the size of the fire indicates that this reactor was running hot for some purpose other than electricity generation. Its omission from the list of electricity-generating operations raises the question of whether Unit 4 was being used to enrich uranium, the first step of the process leading to extraction of weapons-grade fissionable material.
The bloom of irradiated seawater across the Pacific comprises another piece of the puzzle, because its underground source is untraceable (or, perhaps, unmentionable). The flooded labyrinth of pipes, where the bodies of two missing nuclear workers—never before disclosed to the press— were found, could well contain the answer to the mystery: a lab that none dare name.

Cut Off From Communications
The substance of undisclosed talks between Tokyo and Washington can be surmised from disruptions to my recent phone calls to a Japanese journalist colleague. While inside the radioactive hot zone, his roaming number was disconnected, along with the mobiles of nuclear workers at Fukushima 1 who are denied phone access to the outside world. The service suspension is not due to design flaws. When helping to prepare the Tohoku crisis response plan in 1996, my effort was directed at ensuring that mobile base stations have back-up power with fast recharge.

A subsequent phone call when my colleague returned to Tokyo went dead when I mentioned "GE.” That incident occurred on the day that GE’s CEO Jeff Immelt landed in Tokyo with a pledge to rebuild the Fukushima 1 nuclear plant. Such apparent eavesdropping is only possible if national phone carrier NTT is cooperating with the signals-intercepts program of the U.S. National Security Agency (NSA).

On his 1959 visit to Britain, Kishi was flown by military helicopter to the Bradwell nuclear plant in Essex. The following year, the first draft of the U.S.-Japan security was signed, despite massive peace protests in Tokyo. Within a couple of years, the British firm GEC built Japan's first nuclear reactor at Tokaimura, Ibaragi Prefecture. At the same time, just after the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, the newly unveiled Shinkansen train gliding past Mount Fuji provided the perfect rationale for nuclear-sourced electricity.
Kishi uttered the famous statement that "nuclear weapons are not expressly prohibited" under the postwar Constitution's Article 9 prohibiting war-making powers. His words were repeated two years ago by his grandson, then Prime Minister Shinzo Abe. The ongoing North Korea "crisis" served as a pretext for this third-generation progeny of the political elite to float the idea of a nuclear-armed Japan. Many Japanese journalists and intelligence experts assume the secret program has sufficiently advanced for rapid assembly of a warhead arsenal and that underground tests at sub-critical levels have been conducted with small plutonium pellets.

Meanwhile in 2009, the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) issued a muted warning on Japan's heightened drive for a nuclear bomb— and promptly did nothing. The White House has to turn a blind eye to the radiation streaming through American skies or risk exposure of a blatant double standard on nuclear proliferation by an ally. Besides, Washington's quiet approval for a Japanese bomb doesn't quite sit well with the memory of either Pearl Harbor or Hiroshima.

In and of itself, a nuclear deterrence capability would be neither objectionable nor illegal— in the unlikely event that the majority of Japanese voted in favor of a constitutional amendment to Article 9. Legalized possession would require safety inspections, strict controls and transparency of the sort that could have hastened the Fukushima emergency response. Covert weapons development, in contrast, is rife with problems. In the event of an emergency, like the one happening at this moment, secrecy must be enforced at all cost— even if it means countless more hibakusha, or nuclear victims.

Instead of enabling a regional deterrence system and a return to great-power status, the Manchurian deal planted the time bombs now spewing radiation around the world. The nihilism at the heart of this nuclear threat to humanity lies not inside Fukushima 1, but within the national security mindset. The specter of self-destruction can be ended only with the abrogation of the U.S.-Japan security treaty, the root cause of the secrecy that fatally delayed the nuclear workers' fight against meltdown.

Yoichi Shimatsu who is Editor-at-large with the 4th Media is a Hong Kong–based environmental writer. He is the former editor of the Japan Times Weekly. This article is first appeared in the New American Media.

The Fukushima Fifty

(Note: I wrote this post last month, directly after the start of Japan's trouble. I waited to publish, as I did not want to add to the 'psychic terror of the situation.' The story, however, must be told. Now that this event is swept to the back pages of the news, I find it time to bring it back to the front.)


Japan's elder generation has seen both ends of nuclear 'power'. They experienced it's shattering inception as a weapon of war, and they lived with the so-called miracle of it's peacetime use. Japan prides itself upon it's technical expertise. Perhaps there is something in the Japanese soul that was healed by the concept of controlled nuclear power. Their culture quite literally rose from the ashes of WWII to become the modern apex of a high-tech society.

Standing stones placed upon mountainsides of Northwest Japan mark ancestral records of tsunami destruction. The carved text warns the coming generations to 'always live about this line'. Old legends sometimes turn out to be true. The ancestors did, indeed, leave a warning, but modern man is perhaps too enamored of his technology, and not enough in awe of the raw forces of nature.

Was it a surprise that Fukushima Daichi nuclear power station fell victim to the giant wave after the massive quake? And did they merely forget the carved warnings, or did greed add to the collective cultural amnesia?

The Bible tells tales of Solomon, our biblical and mythical Wisest King, who was able to seal horrible genies back into the bottle. Genies, (called djinn in the original language) were terrible magical beings who terrorized the human race. As we gaze into our own 'djinni' of nuclear power, will we realize that this particular power can never be contained? And who, today, is the Solomon who can seal it back into its bottle?

Enter the Fukushima 50.

The Fukushima 50 are the brave men who left family behind to stand on the front line— while the administrative world wrung and flung it's hands, these courageous souls didn't look over their shoulder for someone else to take on the job, they stepped into the breach, fighting the fire to hold down the Holocaust. To you I give my prayers, and my heartfelt gratitude.

I find it fascinating that the flagship of the greatest nuclear power on earth has pulled up anchor to move outside the radiation zone. That they fear to send men, men who gave their sworn oath that they would to give their lives in service for their country, into the heart of the growing nuclear catastrophe. These men would rather face bullets than face the hell that the Fukushima Fifty have not left yet. "Take care of yourself. one told his wife, as he stepped out for a phone call during his deadly rotation. "Do your best. I won't be home for a while. ..." Typically understated Japanese Love.

I can understand America's disinclination to die for someone else's mistake; however, last I heard, America was the inventor of 'peacetime nuclear power' while Japan was merely the purchaser of the power system. No one knows the extent of the damage. I thought we had un-manned drones we could fly? I've heard tell they use them to look for drugs on the border, or Bin Ladens in Turkestan. Why are these so absent from this nuclear battlefield? Are the accountants in charge still counting cost?

May whatever God you choose bless the Fukushima Fifty; who stand for the One Fifty now in rotation, who stand for the thousands in the surrounding towns, the millions in the cities, and the countries at the edge of the nuclear wind. They stand for the water elements below, the air elements above, and the fire within the shattered earth chalice of this our nuclear age. Goddess hold these men in your heart, and cause the radiation to spare them; and if not, take them up onto your Limitless Breast.

To those on the sidelines, worrying about trouble to come; I'd worry. These nuclear djinnis are everywhere. And management, in its current state, will consistently cut corners on safety for the bottom line every time. There's a reason the Devil card represents the Corporate State in the pantheon of the Tarot. God bless the 50, you won't see management on the front lines. No, middle management faces the press; the real money men have already climbed onto corporate jets and left the scene of the crime.

I remember ancient tales of Samurai, men honorable enough to fall upon their swords when they failed of their empire. Precious few left in high places these days, just crocodile tears from the perpetrators. The real Samurai in this case are the low-level, underpaid and under-trained contract workers left at the plant; warriors all, standing between nuclear oblivion and the rest of the world. And sure, maybe it won't fully explode and contaminate the entire earth. Maybe it will be just a local phenomena, just part of the cost of doing business. Does it make it any less catastrophic?

Fukushima 50, you have not lived in vain. We on the other side of the world? We can only contribute our heartfelt thanks, and our firm intent to rectify this Error of cataclysmic proportion. We in the rest of the world must affirm that the way we live our life is our response. We can choose to emulate the wealthy criminals, always crying for more; whose every decision echoes always the refrain ' it's someone else's job' to rectify their mistakes. The cowards at the top will sacrifice whomever needs to be; after all, they are competitors for the most gilded chariot in the race to the top of the highest and gated heap. (I think there really is a deeper place in Hell. It only looks gilded on the outside, and the heap is surely inverted.)

Saner Hearts; maybe we can pull for a slightly dusty heaven; live with less, and lay those nuclear djinni to rest. Nuclear Power? Hell, no, we won't go.

Goddess bless and sustain the Fukushima 50.

I struggle to remember in these trying times; a heart has never loved in vain, and great deeds are surely rewarded. May the Love that lifts and sustains these heroes in their darkest hour lift and sustain us all. In quantum peace.
