TEPCO releases photo showing damage to No. 4 reactor building, Mainichi, June 13, 2011:
[...] In the photo, which was released on June 11, the pipes and walls near a power generator inside the structure are charred black, and rubble covers the floor.
Earlier the company had released footage showing work to remotely measure the temperature of the pool for spent fuel at the No. 4 reactor, but the latest photo marks the first time since the March 11 earthquake and tsunami for the company to release a picture showing the inside of the reactor building.

I have been on enenews for a long time. I am not a troll, though I can be an AH. I am also not prone to conspiracy theories as I don’t have the time or patience. However, has anyone been to Jim Stone’s website and his theory? It does have some plausability, but I am not sure I even want to go there. Thoughts would be appreciated.

I’ve been there and more and more it sounds feasible to me. It shames me to think it’d be something like that…but I put nothing past the people in charge anymore.

Another twist is that the UK elite placed the plants there on purpose 40 years ago. They were behind the building those reactors. They knew better to place them so close together and where they did, then having Daini only 7 miles away?? placed 10 reactors in a place that not “if” they blew but “when” they blew, the radiation would hopefully blanket America sickening millions. It is no secret that the British elite have been trying to take this land for 300 years so the story isn’t ‘that thin’. Every hundred years it is a different approach. They gave up trying to do it physically, so they added the Federal Reserve. After realizing even though they own the USA on paper, they would still need to deal with the people….At the same time they built the reactors, the UN & Corrupt removed Iodine from America’s diet, placing Boride in our dairy products, mouth wash, tooth paste, fire retardant items, cleaners, and more. Boride is an abrasive made from BORON that destroys iodine in ALL mammals. Iodine is needed to fight radiation sickness. That is why Americans are currently Iodine deficient. “Iodized salt” ring a bell? Iodine was the only healthy part of salt. Seeing the radiation isn’t moving fast enough for the corrupt it isn’t too far out there to expect more radiation in some form or another. This conspiracy have overtones of reality at every turn. Add strategically placed nukes along the fault line, only adds more meat to the story. Meanwhile, I really hope the Japanese have it in them to save themselves. Lord knows they need it. They have no intentions of evacuation…which further strengthens the ‘conspiracy’.

By the way, adding Iodine to your diet just before you eat every day has significant improvements over every part of your body. Study these things,..quickly.

This website is written by a pro nuclear point of view. It talks about how wonderful the Vermont Yankee plant it and that it shouldn’t be shut down. It says nothing about TEPCO’s cover ups in the past and failures. It says nothing about the many plants in Japan that are failures.
It says nothing about the failures of MOX fuel.
This point of view wants MOX fuel in all US reactors.
This website says HAARP earthquakes are not real earthquakes. How naive! Look at you tube video of the sky before China’s big earthquake, Chile’s big , and the fact that Haiti’s big earthquake just happened to release a lot of oil for future exploitation.
On the page that talks about the missing reactor in #3, the print is so small you can’t possibly read where this documentation comes from or what it says. The author could have made this information available so you could see what this argument is.
The nuclear industry will do anything to cover up its failures. Every day nuclear plants release large amounts of radiation into public air. That’s what the smokestacks are for.
This article is written so the world shadow government can continue to rip off money from the masses–so we will have a nuclear “renaissance” and ALL population will be eliminated from the earth.

TOO BAD they have no scientific understanding of nuclear energy. TOO BAD that they have no independent, truthful scientists to advise them. Absolute power is always surrounded by sycophants who earn their keep by mouthing the party line, who could not possibly exist in the world by their own efforts. If they just understood history the powerful wouldn’t keep making the same mistakes over and over again. Centuries of intermarriage breeds insanity.

You know–for me–this is the only thing that answers all the questions I have. Like, why didn’t Japan say anything? Answer: They didn’t want the aggressor to know they’d been hurt. Something like that–THAT makes their behavior make MUCH more sense for me! And, while we’re at it,…let’s look at why? Iran says that it is going to blow Israel off of the face of the map,…Japan offers to enrich Uranium for Iran,……….and we’re gonna BLAME Israel? Right now,…Israel is the ONLY one protecting it’s citizens,…and behaving like a stern parent. Way to go!

Most projects fail with annoying lasting side effects because of the inertia of management and the fear of failure of team members. This can be extrapolated to most human enterprises.
The only glimmer of light on the human horizon used to be the great 19c era of pride in public works. With all its warts, the benefits were for everybody. This was lost in the first world during the latter decades of the 20c.
Nuclear has always been no more than a project, dressed up a a public good which it is not. I want to add something about this in one of the weekly general discussion boards.
On this basis, that nuclear keeps pupping annoyances and worse was only ever to be expected.

I’m not buying Stone’s theory at all. I do believe HAARP may have caused the earthquake.

The part that just gets me is the registered degree of the quake and the lack of damage. I mean, a 9.1 is truly massive. Yes it was sub-marine and roughly 35 miles out, but WTF. The whole Israeli thing is beyond me and interesting but I cannot suscribe. As to HAARP, I guess we should know in about 4-6 weeks as the flood waters should be down by then.

No building standards in Haiti.

I’d like to offer a quick opinion based on been here almost since the start and with a close family issue to worry over.
First of all, there can’t be any good news from Fukushima due to the poor plant design, illicit safety procedures, and bungling first line accident remediation.
Following this, heavy local pollution and oceanic contamination with effects detected to the far side of the Pacific and beyond.
Further, that there is no clear roadmap or timeline to cleanup, due to ongoing heavy radiation.
The mainstream media basically get bored with a story after a while because they think their readers will stop paying attention and go to a competitor [daft idea, no?]. There are other views e.g. that the media are owned by industrial conglomerated that have lots of investment in nuclear. For the mo I will stick with the attention span explanation while respecting others.
Endgame? at least many more cancer cases and genetic defects, stillbirths etc., and maybe other health problems related to ingestion/inhalation of radioactivity.
For Japan, the jury is still out in my undeserved opinion. There is no reason why such a strong willed people should not recover from this, albeit with the above health issues multiplied manifold times. The spanner in the works could be deep failings in the global capital economy. That of course could be another endgame altogether, one perhaps that many thinking people should now be considering.
Hoping this is helping

Looking for a scapegoat is what an archaic people do when an “evil” manifests in their midst. The modern ape reverts to a consciousness of our past.
This “act of God” is not uncommon and a persistent feature of the “ring of fire”.

The POINT is that if this can be staged, why not again? No more nukes,fine. Lets torch some oil fields (Iraq maybe). Lets blow some pipelines. Lets blow some deep water rigs (sound familiar). If war has in fact been declared on the common humans, I would like to know. I’ll worry about the energy industry if I survive.

Cossack55, I think that the next war has already begun. It will be fought with computers and weapons developed by the military of which we have little knowledge, although we have paid for them.
Since our government institutions are not delivering the services we so urgently need at this moment, why pay taxes? Our taxes only go for further incursions by the government intended to get us into another war asap. No taxation without representation.
Report Comment
Indeed. People all over the world need to stop paying their taxes immediately. This is true “people power” that must be realised as such by massive numbers of human beings in all countries (and very soon).
Stopping paying taxes is the most direct way for humankind to express non-support for the genocidal policies that are responsible for the deaths of hundreds of millions in the past century alone, and which policies are also destroying the world altogether. These genocidal policies definitely include anything related to war and armed conflict, as well as anything related to nuclear technology.
It is worth noting that the nuclear industry could not even exist without tax dollars, as no insurance company will cover nuclear power companies due to the massive risks. So, this entire death-dealing nuclear industry only exists due to massive financial assistance from the governments of the world (meaning that the tax dollars of “we the people” are being directly used to fund our poisoning and potential death from ionising radiation!).
“Taxation without representation is tyranny.”
The very understanding that was a significant force behind the American Revolution. Now 250 years later it appears that most Americans (and even most people in the entire world) have completely forgotten this fundamental understanding.
What will it take for people to grasp the tyrannical nature of the current global politics? It is clear that responsibility for the current dire state of affairs on planet Earth also lies with the collective of humankind, and not only with the tiny minority that rule. These well known quotes from a well known personality in the nuclear field address the need for ALL people to take responsibility:
“The strength of the Constitution lies entirely in the determination of each citizen to defend it. Only if every single citizen feels duty bound to do his share in this defense are the constitutional rights secure.”
“The world is a dangerous place to live, not because of evil people, but because ordinary people do nothing about it.”

So much of Stone’s ‘report’ is factually wrong or contains his alleged facts without any reliable sourcing. Perhaps he wants a lot of hits on his page.
The latest reports indicate that it was the earthquake – not the tsunami – that caused the meltdowns by taking out vital piping, cooling systems, etc. Also the area of the plant sank 1 foot, one reason the that we can see reactor 4 leaning.
Reactor 3 and 4 were their own nuclear bombs; no one had to plant a nuke. Reactor 4′s fuel pool lost cooling so melting fuel generated heat sufficient to trigger fuel rods/assemblies’ zirconium alloy cladding to catch fire. One of the stupid design failures of BWRs and PWRs. The fire or fires in Reactor 4 occurred on 13 March. I haven’t gone back to check, but the U.S. NRC was sending out alarms about Reactor 4′s fuel pools early on. On 14 March a prompt criticality (per Gunderson among others) explosion in its companion reactor 3 further damaged Reactor 4.
I’ve seen photographs of large to massive gaping wounds in the earth of Japan – including in Fukushima exclusion zone. Etc.
To me, Israel is creating an Apartheid state and has engaged in almost as many crimes as the USA. But really: the Nazi-like propaganda machine infiltrating those web sites where sincere people question the direction of society, technology, war, etc., and institutional creation of totalitarian state machinery, is getting scary in the U.S.A.
