Breaking News... RT is the first English language source with this, but is not allowed on FR.
NHK saying there were several explosions at the Sagami Depot in Kanagawa.
NHK saying it happened in the Sagami Depot in Kanagawa. Already lots of pics and video showing numerous detonations.
Given tensions with the Norks, this is "interesting".

NORKS are famous for sending out infiltrators and saboteurs.
Has it already been declared as non-terrorism?
Nobody is going to interrupt Obama’s golf game to tell him.
Quick, get Caroline Kennedy!
There are under 100,000 muzzies in Japan and they face heavy surveillance.
Every year there are numerous TINY attacks by whacko lefties in Japan, mostly from 3 famous militant factions. Sounds weird but 90% of the attacks are almost ceremonial in nature —very routine, and just to get their names in the paper and let people know they still (barely) exist.
This one is much, much, much bigger, my guess is they had a lefty with access to a part of the base that stored ordnance.
Norky agents..?
I don’t really smell muzzies on this one...
LOL I was a Tweet from some NBA playa complaining that playing golf with Baraq was no fun because there were “Secret Service guys behind every tree”

CNN, US News agencies still recovering from last night’s party at the gay bar.
The biggest faction of foreigners in Japan are Koreans —there are two national groups representing them, and the bigger, more influential one believed it or not is the one loyal to the NORTH:
Every year they get milked to repatriate money (from grey-world gambling ops and grilled BBQ restaurants, among others) to the North. Used to be much more complex, but the authorities sort of cracked down on them about 9 years ago. Those shenanigans figured more in the DRPK’s revenue stream than most realize, though I don’t know how big it is now.
My guess is these were Nork agents —they’re trying to give Kim Jong Un a symbolic victory so he can save face, claim some type of victory and back away from a major confrontation he’s getting himself caught up in vis-a-vis South Korea.
Workplace Accident?
