<br />
And the reason behind the protests?<br />
A train carrying treated nuclear waste from France back to Germany left nuclear giant Areva's rail yard in northwestern France on Wednesday despite fierce protests. Riot police battled hundreds of anti-nuclear protesters who delayed the departure of the train, the last returning waste to Germany, which has said it will abandon nuclear power in the wake of the Fukushima disaster.<br />
There have been a growing anti-nuclear movement ever since the Fukushima disaster in Europe and with Germany announcing they will shut down their nuclear reactors by 2022 now also French politics are suggesting the same. France have the largest number of nuclear reactors in the eurozone with 54 nuclear reactors. On the table is that 24 of the 58 nuclear reactors would be shut down before 2025.<br />
<br />
With the situation not getting any better at the Fukushima plant, with the twitters from TEPCO workers are now showing that there is not much they can do to the damaged reactors anymore. They can't even enter the reactor building number 3 and do anything to the reactor unit that blew up back in March 2011 because of the radiation that is to high for humans. The workers there are at the damaged plant now only maintain the pumps and electricity to the plant with no plan to actually get the situation under control. In the wake of Chernobyl and Fukushima along with many small nuclear disasters over the years politics and people are more and more starting to wake up to the fact that nuclear power is not under human control. And when things goes wrong the possibility for rendering whole countries useless for living are frightening. Protests are growing not only in Japan but also all over the world. All along the nuclear supporters claim that there are no other choice that we need nuclear power to sustain our living. However looking at Germany and how they have over the years helped with investments to residents in form of solar panels and alternative energy sources the fact of the matter is that most houses fitted with solar panels in Germany are almost self sustaining in their energy demands. It seems that Germany really do have a plan to really get away from nuclear energy without any of the downsides of nuclear power. I just hope the media would actually bring forth the plan Germany have instead of spreading the lies about Germany digging their own grave and causing more CO2 emissions when they abandon nuclear power. Last I checked solar panels don't spew out CO2.<br />

French police have battled anti-nuclear protesters as the last train carrying German nuclear waste treated in France set off on its journey home.<br />

A mobile police canteen was set on fire by demonstrators on Wednesday and at least three people were hurt, two protesters and a riot officer.<br />

On this morning’s NHK “Sunday Debate” program, Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) Secretary-General <b>Nobuteru Ishihara stated</b>, “Geiger counters costing between 40,000 and 50,000 yen ($500-600) provide patchy measurements. <b><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: red;">We have to try and stop citizens from taking their own radiation measurements.</span></b>” It seems that he really doesn’t like the fact that citizens are taking their own radiation readings. Even if the figures are patchy, the measurements still tell us correctly whether the radiation level is high or low.<br />

<div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;">This is from Fukushima Diary:</div><div style="margin-bottom: 0px; margin-left: 0px; margin-right: 0px; margin-top: 0px;"><a href="https://fukushima-diary.com/2011/09/breaking-news-japanese-govs-trying-to-stop-citizen-measuring-radiation/">https://fukushima-diary.com/2011/09/breaking-news-japanese-govs-trying-to-stop-citizen-measuring-radiation/</a></div><br />
<div></div><div><div><br />
</div><div>**************************</div><div><br />
</div><div>So this is what Nobuteru Ishihara thinks. It is true that Geiger counters can be a bit tricky to get a good measurment. But that's no reason to try and forbid people from using them. I think this have more to do with the truth coming out. That people taking measurments on their own compile the data and start to show that radiation levels are higher than being reported.</div><div><br />

This is sick, and can not be tolerated. I hope the people behind this will get their day in court. If justice is served they will be robbed of all their money and get a life sentence in jail. If not they will get a Lynch mob after them and wont be safe ever again. Even if they try and hide somewhere, someone will find them.. This is not only for officials in Japan, it goes for the rest of you that are accomplices to these crimes.</div><div><br />

Well I got a news flash for you, wake up. Citizens are taking action all over the world. You think you're safe? Look at what happened in London.</div><br />
<div>I don't approve to this because these kinds of actions won't have any affect on the people in charge. If you want to win a battle you take out the weak ones first. Why go up against strong forces? When the forces are only doing "their job". You really need to have a hard look at who is the enemy here.</div><div><br />
</div><div>I only bring this up because I see wrong being done here. And I won't stand for it. Neither will the people. The most disturbing thing is that officials that are doing these things don't see that they are doing anything wrong in their twisted minds. I see judgement approaching.</div><div><br />
