ohne Abstimmung durch Bundestag
Bundestagspräsident Norbert Lammert [sueddeutsche.de] (CDU) bezweifelt, dass die Regierungen von Bund und Ländern eine Abschaltung von Atomkraftwerken ohne Zustimmung des Bundestages beschließen dürfen. "Ich lasse prüfen, ob es dazu weiterer korrigierender gesetzlicher Regelungen bedarf", sagte Lammert der Berliner Zeitung. Bereits in der Sitzung der CDU/CSU-Bundestagsfraktion an diesem Dienstag hatten er und der Vorsitzende des Rechtsausschusses, Siegfried Kauder (beide CDU), nach dpa-Informationen rechtliche Bedenken geäußert.
Im Fall des Atomausstiegs hat Lammert zumindest einen Unterstützer: Der Vorsitzende des Rechtsausschusses, Siegfried Kauder (CDU), hatte auch bereits in der Sitzung der CDU/CSU-Bundestagsfraktion am Dienstag rechtliche Bedenken geäußert.
Kauder unterstrich, die vollziehende Gewalt sei nach dem Grundgesetz an Recht und Gesetz gebunden. Bei aller verständlichen Eile müsse der Kurswechsel in der Atompolitik rechtsstaatlich sauber vollzogen werden, mahnte er. Den Weg der Bundesregierung, sämtliche Maßnahmen auf eine Notsituation im Sinne des Atomgesetzes zu stützen, hält Kauder für eine Sackgasse.
„Die betroffene Vorschrift setzt entweder eine konkrete Strahlengefahr für die Bevölkerung oder einen Verstoß der Kraftwerksbetreiber gegen rechtliche Vorgaben voraus." Beides treffe nicht zu.

Wegen der starken Strahlung musste die japanische Armee eine Operation zur Kühlung per Helikopter abbrechen.
Die Lage hat sich weiter verschlechtert.

Coverbilder der heutigen Tagespresse: Signale von Einsicht
erich haiderer, 16.03.2011 11:56, Reply to #233Dasselbe Bild wie die Daily Mail (ein mit gefalteten Händen betendes Mädchen) verwendet ebenfalls die Tageszeitung Österreich heute als (überdimensionales) Coverbild auf Seite eins. Auf Seite zwei: Jetzt hilft nur mehr Beten. In Zeiten wie diesen, in denen bislang kollektive Verbundenheit, Mitgefühl und Demut vor dem Altar politischer Korrektheit, Konsumdenken und purem Materialismus geopfert wurden, ein für gläubige Menschen erstes - zwar spätes, aber durchaus begrüßenswertes Signal der Einsicht versus menschlichem Überheblichkeitsdenken.

Extremely serious levels of radiation have escaped. Dangerously high doses of radiation have been detected in or near the compounds of the quake-hit Fukushima No. 1 nuclear power plant in Fukushima Prefecture.
Japan's worsening nuclear crisis will now be compared to the Chernobyl disaster in the former Soviet Union in 1986.
The Fukushima plant has six reactors. Of them, the No. 2 reactor has begun to release radioactive substances as the suppression pool connected to the reactor containment vessel was apparently damaged.
The No. 1 and No. 3 reactors are also in a perilous situation with their nuclear fuel rods exposed out of cooling water.
An apparent hydrogen explosion has rattled the No. 4 reactor, whose operation had been suspended for inspection when the magnitude-9 earthquake struck March 11. Spent nuclear fuel rods kept in a pool with circulating water appear to have produced hydrogen. If they are exposed above water, then the dangers from the extremely strong radiation would hamper work to bring the situation under control.
Now, four nuclear reactors standing in a line are simultaneously spinning out of control.
The immediate challenge is to cut off the sources of radiation leaks. The work is dangerous, but this is a fight against time to keep the contamination of the people and the land to a minimum.
Japan's nuclear energy technology long accumulated through time and money must be fully utilized to support the efforts of Tokyo Electric Power Co., the plant's operator.
To avoid exposure, action at an early stage is of vital importance.
Radioactive materials are dispersed by the wind in tiny particles, comparable to invisible smoke or dust. People must pay attention to wind directions to avoid being caught in high concentrations of radioactivity.
The priority in evacuation must be put on children. The Chernobyl disaster showed that the risk of young children developing thyroid cancer is more than 100 times greater than that for adults. Society must share the idea that children should be the first ones protected from radioactivity.
Many people must be finding it difficult to believe the news unfolding before their eyes.
The earthquake and tsunami of unprecedented scale in Japan may have caused this situation.
But Japan should have developed nuclear energy not only with pride in its advanced technology, but also with cautiousness as a nation hit by atomic bombs.
This is a consequence of the history of Japan, which has placed nuclear power as a key pillar of its energy policy and enjoyed its benefits in the postwar period. Society as a whole must accept this consequence.
People in areas battered by the killer temblor and tsunami need homes, food and energy. Many people have lost their loved ones. They must be supported by the entire Japanese society.
The resilience of Japanese society is being questioned.

Meine Interpretaion des Bildes:
Eine junge Frau, die entsetzt die Hände vor das Gesicht hält. Sie könnte zu den weniger als 1% Christen gehören und so beten; aber das ist nicht wahrscheinlich (also Shinto plus Gesichtsausdruck plus Augenstellung, der müsste nach unten gehen, passen nicht zu der Interpretation, dass sie betet).
Dass der Glaube in diesen Stunden eine Stütze sein kann ist dabei unbestritten.

Concern over a possible radioactive hazard from Japan's damaged Fukushima nuclear power plant has prompted a formal warning from airspace monitors.
London Volcanic Ash Advisory Centre has issued a nuclear emergency message covering 10 flight information regions.
Among them are airspace zones in China, Korea, Russia and the USA.
The emergency message is timed at 03:00UTC on 15 March, and is open-ended.
It identifies the affected flight information regions as Fukuoka - the extensive region which encompasses Japanese airspace - plus Manila, Taibei, Shanghai, Incheon, Pyongyang, Vladivostok, Khabarovsk, Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk and Anchorage.
The message features in an operational update from the Eurocontrol Central Flow Management Unit.
London VAAC handles advisories linked to the threat of volcanic eruption and was heavily involved in co-ordination efforts during the Icelandic ash crisis last year.
At a meeting of the International Airways Volcano Watch operations group in Bangkok, in 2007, the London centre was invited to be the "focal point" for notifying en route air traffic control centres of International Atomic Energy Agency warnings over accidental release of radioactive material.
