the US wants to bomb Fukushima
Professor Christopher Busby of the European Committee on Radiation Risk reveals that French and American nuclear experts have clashed over the extreme measures to be taken in Fukushima.
The US is reportedly considering bombing the plant to drown it in the ocean.
Nuclear expert Chris Busby revealed today in an interview with the Alex Jones Show that American and French nuclear advisers clashed over the emergency measures to be taken in Fukushima.
According to Chris Busby, the situation would be much more tragic than what the authorities recognize, and amply justify the passage of the accident to level 7. Indeed, several reactors would be in the open air and their reaction out of control, implying a permanent release of radionuclides, in particular plutonium from core no. 3 which was supplied with MOX.
As radiation levels become too high for teams to be kept on site, experts quarrel over the choice of more radical solutions.
The US is reportedly considering bombing the plant to drown it in the sea.
France, which supplied the MOX, wants to believe that it is possible to drown the reactors in concrete.
The quarrel reflects the experts' powerlessness in the face of the scale of the disaster and the titanic proportions of the proven and potential impacts that leave the authorities distraught.
We are experiencing the consequence of the conscious denial syndrome of the nuclear industry. Disasters of such magnitude and with such dramatic consequences have simply not been envisaged because they are neither manageable nor justifiable.
So we decided to ignore them altogether and to delude ourselves. The end of the measures envisaged shows how distraught the authorities are.
The loss of control is not to be confessed, the media blackout is total and the criminal minimization of protective provisions in the event of radiation.
Pollution by radionuclides in the USA has been minimized by the increase in admissible doses.
The areas evacuated by the Japanese authorities are, according to Chris Busby, far too limited and there is an urgent need to provide the inhabitants of an area of 200 km around the plant with water and food from uncontaminated areas. This 200 km area includes a large part of the Tokyo metropolitan area and its 32 million inhabitants.
Measurements made by ground samples show that the “spots” of soil contamination in the prohibited area of Fukushima could be more radioactive, more toxic and more extensive than in Chernobyl despite the situation on the seafront of the power station which almost halves the potential fallout area.
Most worrying is the inability of the authorities to put an end to contamination of the environment, be it the air, the ground or the sea into which tonnes of radioactive water are constantly discharged. These pollutions are widely dispersed by currents as by winds and this on a global scale.
