In reply to the discussion: What's happening at Fukushima? [View all]NuclearDem
(16,184 posts)91. Because the OP has demonstrated repeatedly he doesn't know what he's talking about.
First, he repeatedly cites ENENews, which is the equivalent of citing NaturalNews.
Second, his claims about Fukushima include:
Fukushima's leaking water heating parts of the Pacific to levels that would require several volcanic events worth of heat to achieve.
Seastars dying off due to Fukushima radiation, despite the die off starting months before the accident.

ENEnews is a propaganda outlet that makes anti-nuclear activists look like loons.
