This is video of the explosion at the Fukushima nuclear power plant. This has potential to be the worst artifact caused disaster of all time. STRATFOR is reporting an evacuation radius of 20 miles and that the Japanese government is advising against drinking tap water, eating vegetables or fresh foods
Why were the reactor’s diesel backup generator not primed and ready and designed to supply the power needed in such an emergency?
This is a country noted for regular and often catastrophic earthquakes..
Why was the backup cooling system not able to cope?
This after 3 Mile Island and Chernobyl, disasters like this have only one cause, stupid people, put in power by stupid politicians.
The pattern is the same, the assurances that everything is fine, the proclamations that the chance of a disaster is unlikely, the disaster.
The fatal flaw of universal suffrage, dim people get to vote in dim politicians, who in turn make dim decisions.
Then, like the kids I used to observe at school, when I was about 10, point the finger at everybody else, and say it wasn’t me, it was them.
Pathetic, really pathetic.
