While the earthquake & flooding were forces of nature, these reactors are manmade/designed & in places where huge earthquakes & waves were highly possible. They sent balloon bombs to the US during WW2 using the jet stream so entirely possible we may receive fallout if they can't get those reactors under control.

actually how many of those balloon bombs actually landed on US soil?


Only about a thousand of the 9300 balloon bombs actually made it to US and Canada. One was found near our farm in N Kansas by a guy who saw something white floating around, caught in some tree limbs. He was going to use it to cover some hay, but word got out and military from nearby Ft Riley confiscated it and told him to shut up about finding it. Later, what he'd actually found was made known - no bomb was with it though. I'm not going to look for it , but am always "aware" when detecting up there. The balloons were engineered to either release gas or drop sandbags to maintain elevation.
