Yep, thanks, of course these don’t make sense. They never did. In fact there are so many logical fallacies we may point out in the self defeating policies and aims of the so called “leftist” factions. Not even sure where we would begin or end. So many to point out. They will/are losing. Yet the amount of damage they have caused and the issue of how to prevent these in the future is a huge problem to face. Business governments as usual are not an option.

Fukushima in my opinion - unlike Tonga which very likely was a nuclear blast underwater- was - if the tsunami was not generated by a detonation- a result of the type of reactor. Dale Bridenbaugh helped assess the design of the Mark 1 nuclear reactor upon its creation back in 1975. His findings portray an extreme lack of confidence in the reactor’s ability to contain pressure in case of a meltdown. Bridenbaugh and two engineering colleagues couldn’t handle the pressure themselves, leading them to drop out of the project and resign their positions with the company.

The Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant contains six total reactors, five of which are Mark 1s. And the problem the reactors are facing – a loss of power, leading to cooling uranium rods and rising pressure inside the core – is precisely the issue that drove Bridenbaugh’s resignation from General Electric. The reactors “did not take into account the dynamic loads that could be experienced with a loss of coolant,” Bridenbaugh told ABC News.
