Data Set: Was the March 2011 Quake Swarm an Attack on Japan?

What is extremely alarming, is the severity and frequency of the quakes that hit around Japan, March 11th, and onward. The tectonic activity almost seems as if it was induced, concentrated in the Japan area, pounding the entire region. Was this an attack or planned event? Is the radiation worse then officials claim?

Official Found Dead, Head Covered With Plastic Bag After Measuring Radiation in Tokyo Park

Kabayama was a member of the Tokyo Metropolitan Assembly for the Liberal Democratic Party and had been measuring radiation in an assortment of locations throughout Tokyo. He would then upload his findings to his blog for the world to read, and on the day before he died (June 30, 2011) he measured 0.25 microSv/h in Mizumoto Park in the Katsushika ward located in Tokyo.
