Japanese Prime Minister during Fukushima wants to stop nukes by taking it to the people
For those not familiar with the term, the "nuclear village" refers to the corporations, academics and bureaucrats with a vested interest in promoting the use of nuclear technology. It is very similar in concept to the "military industrial complex". In this interview the Japanese Prime Minister during the Fukushima meltdowns speak out more bluntly than anyJapanese leader I've seen in my more than 3 decades of association with that country. Usually they are so indirect it is nearly maddening to decipher the actual meaning of what is being said. This is a definite exception.
I haven't provided an excerpt because the piece deserves, at the least, a quick scan.
