Press Release: Ecowatch
Harvey Wasserman | EcoWatch.com
Fukushima continues to spew out radiation. The quantities seem to be rising, as do the impacts.
The site has been infiltrated by organized crime. There are horrifying signs of ecological disaster in the Pacific and human health impacts in the U.S.
But within Japan, a new State Secrets Act makes such talk punishable by up to ten years in prison.
Taro Yamamoto, a Japanese legislator, says the law ¨represents a coup d´etat¨ leading to ¨the recreation of a fascist state.¨ The powerful Asahi Shimbun newspaper compares it to ¨conspiracy¨ laws passed by totalitarian Japan in the lead-up to Pearl Harbor, and warns it could end independent reporting on Fukushima....
Fukushima is turning in a bigger problem than it was before.
Reuters says the site is infiltrated by organized crime, raising the specter of stolen radioactive materials for dirty bombs and more.
Tepco is complaining about the news coverage of the dangers involved with the fuel rod removal, but worse - if Japan would declare the Fukushima problems a state secret - anyone writing about it could end up in prison for up to 10 year imprisonment under a new State Secrets Act. Very, very scary developments.
All of this will be discussed at the Nuclear Security Summit in 2014 no doubt, where the large Japanese plutonium stock will also be a topic, I hope !
