The issue is containment in Japan. Really quite simple. Back when I was in the Navy I was a Reactor Operator in the Nuclear program. So I do know first hand a thing or two about this stuff.
The situation at the reactor site in Japan is serious but well in hand. It will be 20 to 30 years 'cleaning' that place up, but honestly beyond the reactor site with the current conditions it is very difficult to even measure radiation 'leakage' from the plant beyond background levels and normal fluctuations in it. So why aren't we just seeing the people starting to rebuild and move back in if its so in control? Because ignorant "Chicken Little" environmentalists and a compliant "news" media keep uncertain people's bowels in an emotional up-roar - it's liberal's shock stock in trade in Japan, same as here.

.....The West Coast of the United States is being fried. It�s being fried by over-fishing, agricultural run-off, runaway development, and a host of other issues, but it�s not being fried by [bleep], and articles that promote that fallacious argument are distracting us from the dominant causes of environmental degradation on our coasts: Us. There ya go. Nobody seems to be concerned about the elephant in the room (partially thanks to distractions such as this). And it's not just the coast.....
