and the nuclear industry says Japan cannot do without Abe but in reality Japan cannot do with Abe...... that's twisted!

There are so many world conflicts and problems and these clowns have nothing better to do than to celebrate the peace with a military parade. They only talk about the past and forget what is happening now. Nobody seems to be interesieren in Syria and IS. Probably is not profitable.

A sad recent case : http://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/sep/02/shocking-image-of-drowned-syrian-boy-shows-tragic-plight-of-refugees

Where is the UN ??? Where is the help ??? Ludicrous!!

It is for me as a non-japanese average person irritating when the highest representant of an institution which should ensure Peace and Human Rights would like to visit a military parade.

"KEPCO President Makoto Yagi told reporters on Tuesday that the company will lower household rates if its reactors can go back online."

This is blackmail!!

For me the player of the tournament was Arjen Robben. Don't understand why Lionel Messi was chosen.

“But in general, all nations must honestly live up to their role in the horrible events of the 20th century. Only on the basis of this honest accounting is it possible to build a future with former foes...."

"all nations" may also include china

"Fukushima open air fission? Radiation surge can’t be blamed just on random leaks":

I have a strange feeling, Abe acts more like a sales manager of the nuclear industry (financed by taxes!) than a representative of the country.....thats crazy.

Don't try to find any logic, German authorities are mostly beyond this. I'm from Germany, I know what I'm talking about. This is an alternative way to generate a lot of free publicity.

Yea, and the honest fish stays in the 20km zone, so we don't have to worry about the fish from the 50km zone.

Just a footnote:

"Solar power generation world record set in Germany"

"German solar power plants produced a world record 22 gigawatts of electricity – equal to 20 nuclear power stations at full capacity – through the midday hours of Friday and Saturday, the head of a renewable energy think tank has said......"

Actually we don't know what happend. That it happened is sad enough.

For me, the intention of this report is clear. The nuclear power stations are earthquake safe ("no significant damage"). We have to improve the countermeasures against a tsunami and than we can go on with the nuclear power - let's go back to daily business.
