Japanese volcano erupts on nuclear power station island



A Japanese volcanic eruption has fired ash nearly 2km into the sky and sent molten lava flowing down its slopes.

The Sakurajima volcano lies 50 km from the Sendai nuclear plant but the authorities said there was no risk.

The facility reopened this year after a shutdown following the earthquake which crippled the Fukushima reactor.
People were warned not to approach the volcano, which lies in a remote area.

There is a big risk, they cant fix Fukushima , I hope they pay for cancer treatments .

Has to be said that Japan are in a difficult position energy-wise. It's obviously risky having nuclear power plants in such a unstable area, but what are their alternatives? No wonder the seas around there are hotly contested for their gas fields.

Volcano, nuclear power plant...

Yup - nothing to see here, move along

What could possibly go wrong?

Many humans, in the form of corporations and governments etcetera, around the world are so greedy, which actually equates to really stupid...

We now know 100% that nuclear energy production is unsafe, that's its nature...

And yet we continue to supress and/or discourage the idea of freely available and abundant energy from the earth's magnetic field...

As JP Morgan said (approx.) to Nicolai Tesla as he proceeded to ruin him: "If I can't put a meter on it, then it's no good to me!"

And yet, you still support JP Morgan bank et al...

And make no mistake, you are not separate from your government, you are your government!

There are no victims here!

According to Global Research.ca the whole of the N. Pacific Ocean is contaminated with life threatening radiation to an alarming level. This huge disaster has been purposely ignored by the MSM.

The Japaneese have already PROVEN they can't be trusted with doing the right thing when it comes to nuclear incidents. The world is being poisoned by these buffoons.

"People were warned not to approach the volcano, which lies in a remote area."

It certainly doesn't appear all that "remote" in the photo, within sight of what looks

like dwellings.

At a disance of 50 km from the Sakurajima volcano, the Sendai nuclear plant is safe from any volcanic "bombs." But the town and plant are at risk from hot volcanic ash that might fall to 1-2 meters deep. Hopefully with this eruption authorities will review their security plans to assure both plant and people safety.

The volcano is in a remote area, eeer ! but nuclear plants tend to be built in remote areas. Take Sellafield in England. West Cumbria is about as "remote" as you can get in England, but ooops ! it's on a fault line. OK only minor quakes have been recorded recently, 2 to 3 on the Richter scale, but an active fault-line never the less. Seems to be a pattern here !!!
