Fukushima, the Criminal Complicity of Governments & What May Be in Store for US Reactors

BFP Video During the nuclear catastrophe at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant in Japan’s northeast last March, the world watched in horror as conditions in the plant deteriorated by the day. Despite public reassurances that the situation was under control, we now know that three of the plant’s reactors actually began meltdown within hours and that plans were being made at the highest levels of the Japanese government to evacuate Tokyo, the world’s most populous metropolitan area.

In effect, the world was given a crash course in cascading nuclear failure. What many do not know is that the damaged reactors were designed by General Electric, rely on 40-year-old containment technology, and are substantially similar to 32 reactors currently operating around the world, including 23 in the United States.

This is our EyeOpener Report by James Corbett, presenting you with the history of and GE’s role in development of boiling water reactors and the Mark 1 containment vessel system used in the damaged Fukushima reactor which has been focus of fierce criticism for at least 40 years, and the criminal complicity of government regulators in failing to enforce their own policies and regulations on these aging reactors, not only in Japan, but in the US as well.

Like always, the nuclear industry is no different here. All we can expect is lies, deceit and betrayal.

All of the governments will point fingers and say they had no idea what was going on. Unfortunately for them, the one good thing about Yahoo,Facebook, and Google is that many users on ENEnews and other Fukushima sites began saving their emails to their respective governments from March of 2011 on,and including, today.

Any prime minister or president that claims a lack of knowledge will see clarifying emails,with clear dates shown, on the front pages of the news on every continent. America, Europe,Asia,Canada, and South America looked away and let people die because they didn't want to endure blows to their economies. GE,America, and Japan have given millions of people death sentences with their lies.

Houston...there's about to be a SERIOUS problem. People need to skip through the five stages of grief and get to acceptance or the air,water, and soil will be too contaminated for anything to be done-in traditional ways.
