FUKUSHIMA - THE DOOR TO HELL IS OPEN AND CAN'T BE CLOSED

“We’ve opened a door to hell” at Fukushima plant, and may never be able to close it, says Paul Gunter, a nuclear industry watchdog, on a radio interview.
 
We’ve got 3 reactors, the cores have left the vessel. They’ve burned through the bottom of the vessel.  We don’t really know where they are. 
 
They have been sending very innovative robotic machinery and sensors in there to get a picture, to get a reading, and these things don’t return, because the radioactive environment even fries robots that Tepco’s been sending in there.
 
We have opened a door to hell that cannot be easily closed — if ever.
 
We’ve got those 3 cores that are melting, they could be somewhere in the concrete base mat burning their way through, they could have already burned through and entered into the ground. They hopefully have formed a huge solid ‘elephant’s foot’ of highly radioactive material.

“Japan’s worst nuclear nightmare” — Yale Professor: Removing fuel from Fukushima Unit 4 pool “has me very scared” — Tepco: “We believe it’s not dangerous”

Mark Willacy, ABC News (Australia), Oct. 31, 2013: Hidden inside the twisted remains of the Fukushima reactor 4 building, and perched precariously 5 stories above the ground, is Japan’s worst nuclear nightmare.
 
It’s a deep pool holding 1,300 used fuel assemblies. Tepco is finally ready to start removing this 400 tons of highly radioactive fuel.

ABC’s Interview with Yale Professor Charles Perrow, author of recent article in the Bulletin of Atomic Scientist about Tepco’s upcoming attempt to remove fuel from the Unit 4 pool: “This has me very scared.”

He warned that one slip-up with the removal of this highly radioactive fuel could trigger a chain reaction. “Tokyo would have to be evacuated because cesium, and other poisons that are there, will spread very rapidly. Even if the wind is blowing the other way, it’s going to be monumental.”

TEPCO’s Yoshimi Hitosugi: We believe it’s not dangerous.

Celebrated Physician: Fukushima has humanity “on brink of a possible worldwide nuclear holocaust” — “The world as we know it has changed” — “Effects on our health are incomprehensible”

Infectious disease specialist Dr. Stephen Hosea, MD in the Santa Barbara Independent, October 31, 2013: Radioactive Fallout from Fukushima — The World as We Know It Has Changed
 
I believe that humanity is standing on the brink of a possible worldwide nuclear holocaust.
 
The world as we know it has already changed as the result of radioactive material that has been released into the air and the ocean.
 
I am not an alarmist, but I am alarmed. I know radioactivity has been and continues to be released into the air and ocean.
 
The effects on our health are incomprehensible because the magnitude of radioactivity released and the extent of spread and contamination are virtually unknown.
 
In my clinical career, I have had the good fortune to care for the homeless and the disenfranchised and the rich and the famous.
 
When one is lying in a hospital bed with those special gowns that are wide open in the back, everyone is pretty much the same. The air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat are gifts of life for all of us no matter what our creed or our color.
 
I know that these precious gifts have been contaminated. The silence from the media and the powers that be has been deafening. We have an opportunity to help the Japanese with the crisis in Fukushima. I want the best and the brightest that money CAN’T buy to be making those decisions.
 
This is not a request–this is an inalienable right for the sake of our children and all humanity. The time to act is now.
