Whether it’s Japan, or Libya, or Bahrain, everything and very little is changing.
In the Arab world, the Japanese disaster has proven to be very convenient for despotic rulers. They know that the West needs their oil and is not about to go to war over a bit of rebellion. So they suppress, suppress, suppress.
In Japan, trust is wearing out. The Japanese government, and the nuclear power industry, seem several steps behind the curve. So more distress, distress, distress.
