What’s Going On At Fukushima?
By James Donahue
Last month the world received news that workers at Tokyo Electric Power Company’s
2011 earthquake and tsunami crippled Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant complex were about to begin a long and extremely
dangerous job of removing hundreds of stored fuel rods from a crumbling elevated structure located 100 feet above the ground
at the Number 4 reactor.
The concern was that the rods were packed in like sardines, many of them bent
and twisted, and that one mistake during the sensitive task of removing them while keeping them cooled with water could cause
a nuclear explosion with the potential of blowing up all six nuclear plants in the complex.
A story
in Japan Times said such an explosion could release 14,000 times the amount of radiation released by the Hiroshima atomic
bomb. Fallout and debris from such a blast would have the potential of contaminating all of Japan and surrounding areas, the
entire Pacific Ocean, the West Coast of North America and possibly the entire Northern Hemisphere of the world. Much of this
area would remain uninhabitable for hundreds if not thousands of years, depending on the severity of the radiation.
Since
that story was released, there has been a foreboding silence in the news about the goings on at Fukushima. There were rumors
that the work was suddenly stopped at about the time it started because of an unexpected dilemma. There also has been a story
in Forbes that Japan’s unemployed workers have been snatched up by a criminal element and forced to perform the deadly
work.
This week we are receiving reports from various sources, with photographs shot from some
distance, of great clouds of billowing steam or smoke pouring from one of the Fukushima plants. This is accompanied by speculation
as to what is happening at the plant, and whether something is going terribly wrong with the fuel rods removal.
There
has not only been a news blackout about Fukushima, but the Japanese government is moving toward passage of a state secrets
law that would make it a serious offense for anyone to leak information about Fukushima to journalists. Thus if a dreaded
total meltdown is inevitable, nobody will know until it happens. By then, it may be too late to escape the effects of the
toxic impact such a blast will have on us all.
World occultists, astrologers and dreamers say they are having visions of
great changes ahead for the world. Let us all pray the changes are not a plunge into total destruction.
