Based on post-earthquake facts, this essay argues that seismic retrofitting and relocation from hazardous zones—not nuclear plant shutdowns—are the sole effective measures to reduce earthquake fatalities in Japan.

Recently, I have encountered one event after another that has convinced me of the fact that true evil lies in brandishing a sense of justice.
I have stated that the foolishness of opposing nuclear power is not merely foolishness, but can be described, without exaggeration, as the result of being manipulated by the governments of China and South Korea, as well as the CIA.
I have also addressed the causes that turned Fukushima into “Fukushima,” and readers know that I was the first in Japan to point out the major responsibility borne by the prime minister at the time.
I have written the facts, including that the complete shutdown of nuclear power plants thereafter was carried out by people such as Naoto Kan, Masayoshi Son, and Mizuho Fukushima.
After the Kumamoto earthquake, I was watching the television captions.
They conveyed, quite naturally, the undeniable fact that there had been absolutely no abnormalities at nuclear power plants in Kyushu.
That is to be expected, since nuclear power plants are structures designed not to be destroyed even if a fighter jet were to crash into them.
In other words, among all the structures built by humankind on the earth, nuclear power plants are the most robust without equal.
It is no exaggeration to say that nothing else is built to such a degree of strength.
After that, news reported that power had been lost at thermal power plants in the Chugoku and Shikoku regions.
Thermal power plants cannot even be compared to nuclear power plants in terms of robustness.
Not a single person in Japan has died due to nuclear power plants.
The overwhelming majority of people who die in major earthquakes are those who lived in buildings constructed before the 1983 seismic standards, an undeniable fact that has been repeated time and again.
Instead of dismantling the safest structures on earth—nuclear power plants—under the guise of superficial justice, without realizing that they are being manipulated by China and South Korea,
and instead of spending enormous sums on decommissioning costs, that is, squandering vast national wealth,
those funds should be spent on reinforcing aging wooden houses and cheaply built steel-frame buildings constructed before 1983.
Or rather than harassing specific nuclear power plants with claims about geological layers,
national wealth should be used to relocate homes built atop active fault lines or backed by steep cliffs to safer locations.
Why?
Because that alone is the only way to reduce earthquake-related deaths in Japan, a country prone to earthquakes.
