There has been no political will to push nuclear armament in Japan. Memory of getting nuked and long prosperity made people uneasy about it. The political mood will shift definitely if another quake does damage equal or more than the one last March.
Even without any major quake, Fukushima crisis is doing grave damage for economy and public health. Heightened sense of fear generally radicalize population.
