Japan’s Nuclear Rescuers: “Inevitable Some of Them May Die Within Weeks”

“Workers at the disaster-stricken Fukushima nuclear plant in Japan say they expect to die from radiation sickness as a result of their efforts to bring the reactors under control, the mother of one of the men tells Fox News.

The so-called Fukushima 50, the team of brave plant workers struggling to prevent a meltdown to four reactors critically damaged by the March 11 earthquake and tsunami, are being repeatedly exposed to dangerously high radioactive levels as they attempt to bring vital cooling systems back online.

Speaking tearfully through an interpreter by phone, the mother of a 32-year-old worker said: “My son and his colleagues have discussed it at length and they have committed themselves to die if necessary to save the nation.”

“On the 30th anniversary of the attempted assassination of President Ronald Reagan, Bill Plante profiles 70-year-old Jim Brady, a man whose life was never the same after that day.”

I remember the events of that day, and it really surprised me by the course of the events.

Full Meltdown In Full Swing? Japan Maximum Nuclear Alert

“In Japan, radiation levels in the seawater near the Fukushima plant continue to rise. They’re now more than 3.5 thousand times higher than normal. Radioactive material has also been detected in soil at the facility. Japan’s government described the situation as serious and unpredictable. Workers have been unsuccessfully trying to restore the plant’s cooling system, in what is now the worst atomic crisis since Chernobyl. There’s been some debate over whether there are any similarities between the two events. RT talks to Professor Christopher Busby, of the European Committee on Radiation Risks.”

“Turd Sandwich” Replaces “Kinetic Military Action”

Not surprised that this military action in Libya has really been called a “turd sandwich” in place of the words by President Barak Obama, “kinetic military action”. What we have here is not a “weak President” but a “dangerous President” in these difficult times.
