Some of these kamikaze nuclear workers will die from radiation. No Japanese civilians will -— my prediction

[MadMax, the Grinning Reaper]

50 Japanese “Mr. Spocks” as in “The Wrath of Kahn”. Brave men deserving of our highest respect.

[darkside321]

This people are allready heros.
Japan should build a monument for every single one of them.
(Because i fear they will have to pay the ultimate price for their heroic deeds)

[Oceander]

"However, CBS News correspondent Jim Axelrod reports that a handful have stayed on the job, risking their lives, to try to save the lives of countless people they don't even know."

It is a sorry commentary on this country when that sort of honorable behaviour is considered strange.

[struggle]

God bless you. The job must be done.

Someone posted a link to another very good article about the workers inside Fukushima here: http://www.aolnews.com/2011/03/15/heroic-team-inside-fukushima-nuclear-plant-probably-terrified/?ncid=webmail

Four more of the workers are missing since the fire in reactor #4 this afternoon.

[SpaceBar]

These individuals are nothing short of Japanese national heros.

URGENT: Fuel rods damage at Fukushima's 2 reactors estimated at 70%, 33%

An estimated 70 percent of the nuclear fuel rods have been damaged at the troubled No. 1 reactor of the Fukushima No.1 nuclear power plant and 33 percent at the No. 2 reactor, Tokyo Electric Power Co. said Wednesday.

Indeed they are brave, courageous heroes.

And keep in mind if the plants are at this point...

what does that really say about the dire situation in there.

I said it yesterday...they took out 750 people and left 50. What can 50 do that the 750 could not do?

May God bless them.

[KoRn]

The people that are there on site working on those things are heroes, IMO.

They very well could die as a result of their work and they have to know it, but they do it anyway, because they are the only ones who can.

[NoLibZone]

May God Bless them and keep them safe.

They are heroes.

[75thOVI]

May the Lord bless them and keep them, may the Lord make his face to shine upon them, may the Lord be gracious unto them. May He lift up his countenance upon them and give them peace. I neither know nor care their particular religious affiliations, but I DO know who they’re working for.

[Polynikes]

Nuclear Samurai.

Courage is not the absence of fear, but rather the judgement that something else is more important than fear.

I admire them greatly, even before this story. but I have to say that I am having a harder and harder time believing anything the media is putting out on this whole story. Creating greater fear, misinformation, unnecessary drama where things are already horrible. The media just paints things blacker than they are in some cases.

Did you hear Diane Sawyer being amazed and touched in her segment that the Japenese are still recycling? I guess there is something wrong with me, but it made me want to barf. The last thing I would worry about it I thought my days were literally numbered is if I should put #2 PET in the proper container!

[Travis McGee]

Brave, selfless men. Many already lost their families and homes. No greater love.

[newzjunkey]

Keep in mind they'd be volunteering to head into a place so potentially dangerous, that anyone within 20 miles of it was just asked to evacuate.

This is misleading by CBS or a screwup of km/mi. Within 20km (12mi) were told to evacuate. 10km (18mi out and closer) beyond that are told to "evacuate in place," in other words stay inside where they are.
