[lbo-talk] Nuclear plant chief weeps as Japanese finally admits radiation leak is serious enough to kill people

[Somebody Somebody]

Fernando, considering that thousands of Japanese died from the tsunami and not, so far, from the partial meltdowns at Fukushima, and that everyone here seems agreed that nuclear plants should at least not be built where they might be affected by said tidal waves, does it make sense also to say that large population centers should also not be established along the Northeastern coast of Japan?

If it's not safe for nuclear reactors to reside there due to the threat of tsunamis, it could hardly be safe for millions of people to live there, considering that it is not a probability but a guarantee than in the event of such a disaster, many hundreds if not thousands will perish.

I hope to see that all those who are arguing for the closure of Japan's nuclear plants in the north of the country will also agree with the large-scale evacuation of coastal regions in that part of the country.
