Kan’s con – using misinformation to suit his purpose (May 29)
Japanese ex-PM Naoto Kan has been working hard to try and absolve himself of wrongdoing during the Fukushima accident. He has gone so far as to make himself out to be the world's savior by allegedly keeping Tepco from abandoning F. Daiichi (which now seems to have been a gross over-reaction based on misinformation). Now, he's attacking Japanese Disaster and Nuclear Emergency law for being "insufficient", saying it was the reason for his heavy-handed meddling. However, his testimony befor the Diet's NAIIC reveals that he had no knowledge of the law and was initially more concerned with routine politics than the Tohoku calamity.
