Japan was struck by the most powerful earthquake to hit the island nation in recorded history, 9.0-magnitude, on March 11, 2011 triggering tsunamis that caused widespread devastation and crippled a nuclear power plant.
The death toll stands at 4,164 as of 03/16/2011 according to the National Police Agency Emergency Disaster Headquarters. As of 6 p.m. (5 a.m. ET), at least 7,843 people were missing and 2,218 injured, officials said. The number of dead is expected to go up as rescuers reach more hard-hit areas. This is one of the worst tragedies in World History.

I lived in Japan for four years. The Japanese people are both tough and resilient. Trust me, they'll bounce back faster than one can imagine. Even so, I feel so badly about what happened to them, and the devastating loss of life.
