Tokyo Professor: Ground Beneath Fukushima Reactors Increasingly Unstable – ‘Potential Catastrophe Unfolding In Plain Sight’

… and if reactor 4 SFP collapses the entire northern hemisphere is uninhabitable.


Tokyo Professor: Ground beneath Fukushima reactors becoming increasingly unstable — “Potential catastrophe unfolding in plain sight” (ENENews, Aug 20, 2013):

[…] Expert commentary, including from the METI Nuclear Accident Response Director, has warned that the constant flow of water may lead to further structural instability of the buildings.  […] 1000 tonnes of water per day runs down from the surrounding hills, further softening the ground […]

So, here we have a potential catastrophe unfolding in plain sight […] They know – or certainly should know – that they are drifting into ever more risky circumstances, as the volumes of water increasingly render the ground underneath the reactors unstable. All parties also know that Tepco is prepared to start removing fuel rods from November […]

Given the implications of a mishap in fuel-rod removal, as well as the myriad other problem areas at the plant, the word “shameful” seems hardly strong enough. […]

A day later The Japan Times published this report: Expert: Land under Fukushima reactor buildings at risk of turning into liquid — Area near sea could become like mud

Another excerpt from Prof. DeWit’s article displaying foresight:

[Tepco]  is doing everything with an eye on costs, including constructing the storage tanks for contaminated water out of the cheapest materials possible. Apparently, some of these containers have already begun leaking (according to statements from former workers at the site). And it is almost certain that there will be significant leakage as the months go by […]

Shortly after this was posted on Japan Focus, a Level 1 nuclear incident was declared at Fukushima Daiichi due to leaking water storage tanks: ‘Growing Alarm’: 25 trillion becquerels of Fukushima radioactive material leaks into ground — Kyodo News Advisory: Exact source of extreme contamination unknown; Tank missing 300,000 liters (VIDEO)

  1. This should be on the front page of every paper and website on the globe. Truly terrifying……..and it makes total sense.

  2. Re-visiting the events leading to this mess, there are numerous references to both israel (sic) nuking, no earthquake at all & HAARP inducement.
    Whatever, it seems this may have been a planned event, and the Japanese Gov’s negligence & incompetence have compounded the result, which, as usual leaves the innocent most vulnerable victims.
    However, the mellee of possible technological causes of Fukushima might also be a precursor for something more sinister, pointing at the seeming disaster preparedness being carried out in the North East USA on behalf of FEMA & the NSA.
    Whilst an economic disaster is on the cards soon, the USA Gov like to take the populace’s minds of it with a FALSE FLAG event, the likes of which are failing badly in Syria.
    But, the recent three year spate of New Madrid fault tremors, just might be a bit of tinkering and fine tuning for a big one to be used to trigger, and justify the introduction of the MARTIAL LAW which is now so obvious on the cards also.
