WSJ: "Murky Science Clouded Japan Nuclear Response"

The Wall Street Journal, in an article entitled "Murky Science Clouded Japan Nuclear Response," has reported that the villagers of Iitate, just 17 miles downwind of the radiation-spewing Fukushima Daiichi triple meltdown, were left in the dark, without warning from the Japanese government, regarding dangerously high levels of radioactive contamination that had blown onto their home and fallen out with snow beginning just four days after the accident began, on March 15th. The evacuation order was not given until April 22nd, nearly six weeks into the nuclear catastrophe.
