One would think the Japanese, with their love of everything robotic, would go in there with driverless earth moving equipment, tear it all up and put it into containers, then pay a third party country to entomb it thousands of feet down in stable bedrock capped by concrete.

Radiation has already destroyed several robots in the process there.

The robots keep failing due to the high radiation levels. They’ve been trying to clean out the spent fuel pools of debris to be able to access the fuel rods and retrieve them. They have been successful at one reactor ( number 4 I think) and are retrieving spent fuel rods with a special device.
