I have a friend in the military who just tweeted:
"Captain of the USS Reagan [aircraft carrier] told the crew to make video conferences home cause they dont know how sick they might get."
Have not confirmed yet but he's an honest guy so take it for what it is...

towards the end of WW2
despite Japanese willingness to surrender
the Americans flattened two cities with the A-Bomb,
rode in triumphantly and set up shop.
Their army base has drunk Okinawa dry,
and committed no shortage of moral outrage.

Everybody in Japan wants them to leave, but there's no way they're going.
Or, so I thought.
Japan essentially became, and to some extent still is, a colony of the US.
So the smelly Americans tell the Japs what to do, regularly.
I'll bet the Americans forced Japan to buy American GE nuclear cookers,and the US didn't understand the Japanese when they expressed their opposition
oh, so politely.
So, the Japanese raised the stakes by putting
some of the reactors near a faultline, by the sea, in Fukushima,
and then giving the management to TEPCO.

They certainly are brave, willing to take a nuke cloud, just to get rid of the
Yanksters. And they had to wait 40 years for the right conditions:
technical incompetence, nukes, earthquake, tsunami, incompetence
for the plan to come to fruition.

I suppose the emperor Akihito had been waiting in his palace thinking:
"when is that bitch in Fukushima gonna blow?"Priceless! The plan is working like a charm.
The Yank army and navy are leaving!
The Yank army and navy are leaving!
How many of you guys would be willing to nuke your own country to get invaders to leave?

U.S. Aircraft Carrier Leaves Japan Port of Yokosuka as Precautionary Step
By John Brinsley - Mar 22, 2011 4:33 AM GMT+0000
The aircraft carrier USS George Washington yesterday left the Japanese port of Yokosuka, about 175 miles (280 kilometers) south of a crippled nuclear plant, as a precautionary measure.
“Moving the USS George Washington is a precaution given the capabilities of the vessel and the complex nature of the disaster,” the 7th Fleet said in a press release. “The forward deployed carrier is scheduled to remain in the local waters off Japan.”
U.S. Navy ships and helicopters have been involved in rescue efforts following the 9.0 magnitude earthquake and subsequent tsunami that hit Japan’s Tohoku region on March 11. Radiation detected on U.S. aircrews operating near Fukushima prompted the relocation of some ships on March 14.
“We’ve seen nothing that rises to the level that would be harmful to human health,” Commander Jeff Davis, a Seventh Fleet spokesman, said in a phone interview from Yokosuka, about 30 miles south of Tokyo.
The battle to prevent a meltdown at the Fukushima Dai-Ichi nuclear power station entered its 12th day as reports increased of radiation contamination at sea and on land. Radiation levels found so far in food aren’t harmful, Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary Yukio Edano said at a press conference yesterday.
Tokyo Electric Power Co. said fuel rods at the plant have been damaged, releasing five kinds of radioactive material and contaminating seawater for the first time.
