16 Burning Questions About The Gulf Of Mexico Oil Spill That We Deserve Some Answers To

The Gulf of Mexico oil spill is a national nightmare that seems to have no ending.  Every day new details come out that are even more shocking than what we learned the day before.  The truth is that life will never be the same in the Gulf of Mexico or for those who live along the Gulf coast.  Now Barack Obama has made a big Oval Office speech and has tried to convince all of us that he is in charge of the crisis.  Well, perhaps if he had tried to take decisive action a month ago the American people may have rallied around him.  But right now the BP/government response to this disaster remains completely and totally chaotic.  Nobody seems to be able to stop the leak, and BP has made the environmental nightmare far worse by dumping over a million gallons of highly toxic dispersants into the Gulf.  U.S. government officials are running around holding press conferences and waiting for BP to do something.  Meanwhile oil is pouring ashore and toxic gases are being detected at very alarming levels.  The biggest environmental disaster in U.S. history is also quickly becoming one of the biggest economic disasters and potentially one of the biggest public health disasters.   

The truth is that the American people deserve some answers about what in the world is going on down there in the Gulf.  BP does not own the Gulf of Mexico and they have no right to keep the American people from seeing what is happening.  There are some very serious health and environmental questions that have been raised in the media recently, but both BP and the U.S. government are not giving us any answers. 

But we need some answers.  People are getting sick.  Crops are dying.  Wildlife is being devastated.  Birds are flocking north by the thousands.

But BP and the U.S. government continue to treat us as though we are on a "need to know" basis and that what we "need to know" is not much.

Actually, much of what they have decided to tell us throughout this crisis has turned out to be lies anyway.

The truth is that it is about darn time that someone started telling it to us straight.  

The following are 16 questions about the Gulf of Mexico oil spill that we really need some answers to....

#1) Barack Obama has authorized the deployment of more than 17,000 National Guard members along the Gulf coast to be used "as needed" by state governors.  So what are all of these National Guard troops going to be doing exactly?  Are the troops going to be used to stop the oil or to control the public?

#2) Barack Obama has also announced the creation of a "Gulf recovery czar" who will be in charge of overseeing the restoration of the Gulf of Mexico region following the oil spill.  So is appointing a "czar" Obama's idea of taking charge of a situation?

#3) Because it is so incredibly toxic, the UK's Marine Management Organization has completely banned Corexit 9500, so if there was a major oil spill in the UK's North Sea, BP would not be able to use it.  So why is BP being allowed to use Corexit 9500 in the Gulf of Mexico?

#4) It is being reported that 2.61 parts per million of Corexit 9500 (mixed with oil at a ratio of 1:1o) is lethal to 50% of fish exposed to it within 96 hours.  That means that 1 gallon of Corexit 9500/oil mixture is capable of rendering 383,141 gallons of water highly toxic to fish.  So why was BP allowed to dump 1,021,000 gallons of Corexit 9500 and Corexit 9527 into the Gulf of Mexico, and why aren't they being stopped from dumping another 805,000 gallons of these dispersants that they have on order into the Gulf?

#5) If these dispersants are so incredibly toxic to fish, what are they going to do to crops?  What are they going to do to people?

#6) If the smell of the oil on some Gulf beaches is already so strong that it burns your nostrils, then what in the world is this oil doing to to wildlife that encounter it?

#7) Is it a bad sign that birds from the Gulf region are flocking north by the thousands?

#8) Why is BP being allowed to use private security contractors to keep the American people away from the oil cleanup sites?

#9) Why is BP openly attempting to manipulate the search results on sites like Google and Yahoo? 

#10) Why has the FAA shut down the airspace above the Gulf of Mexico oil spill?  What don't they want the American people to see?

#11) Senator Bill Nelson of Florida says that there are reports that there are additional ruptures in the sea floor from which oil is leaking.  If there are quite a few of these additional ruptures, then how in the world does BP expect to completely stop this oil leak?

#12) Why are scientists finding concentrations of methane at up to 10,000 times normal background levels in Gulf waters?

#13) At some testing stations in the Gulf of Mexico, levels of benzene have been detected at over 3000 parts per billion, and levels of hydrogen sulfide have been detected as high as 1192 parts per billion.  Considering that these levels would be highly toxic to humans, why hasn't the general public been warned?   

#14) Why are so many Gulf oil spill disaster workers showing up at local hospitals complaining of a "mysterious illness"?

#15) If "70% or 80%" of the protective booms are doing absolutely nothing at all to stop the oil, then what is going to stop the millions of gallons of oil in the Gulf from eventually reaching shore?

#16) It is being reported that the deepsea oil plumes are creating huge "dead zones" where all creatures are dying as they are deprived of oxygen.  If this oil spill continues to grow could the vast majority of the Gulf of Mexico become one gigantic "dead zone"?

***UPDATE***

A reader named Stacy has posted a very alarming comment regarding what is happening in her area down in Florida that we wanted to share with everyone....

We live in the navarre, florida area and in the past week almost every family we know has had vomiting and diarreha. This could just be anecdotal – maybe we just have a stomach bug circulating, but it is strange. We had a huge storm the week before it happened that blew in from the gulf so who knows.

Also, the city of destin, florida has taken it upon themselves to close the destin pass with their own purchased boom and barges. This is an elite destination and they are not waiting around for bp and their hired prison workers to clean the beaches. Apparently, the coast guard was at the meeting and told the locals that they will face criminal prosecution, but they don’t care. They are protecting their million dollar properties.

    How the HELL can Tony Heyward sprout health and safety standards when they are NOT certified to S.O.P.

  • Alan M Dransfield

    Copy of my letter sent to my local member of Parliament Mr Ben Bradshaw ref the BP oil Spill
    ==========================================
    Attn Mr Ben Bradshaw MP for Exeter

    Dear Mr Bradshaw

    I wish to alert my MP to obvious serious flaws in the BP day to day
    running of their Oil Projects. I recently learned that BP are NOT
    (repeat not) certified to the ISO 9000 QA/QC and the ISO 1400
    Environmental Standards. This is a quote from the BP website (Quality
    training and consultation, including preparation for ISO 9000
    registration)
    Unquote.
    It beggars belief that BP are operating multi billion dollar projects
    worldwide WITHOUT ISO 9000 and ISO 14000 and just for your information ,
    if you are not familiar with these standards they are:
    1. ISO 9000 series is for the Quality Assurance and Quaility Conrol
    for the design,construction and operational phases of projects.
    2.ISO 14000 series are for the Environmental protection of the design,
    construction and operatioal phases of projects .

    I am absolutlely shocked,stunned and amazed that BP have been allowed
    to operate in such a dangerous industry WITHOUT the accreditation of
    the ISO 9000 and ISO 14000.

    I urge my MP to alert the UK Government about such serious
    irregularities with BP Operations worldwide.Without a shadow of doubt,
    if the Deepwater Horizon had been operated in compliance to these ISO
    standards, the current catastrophe would have been avoided.

    As you are aware also the Chad Cameroon Pipeline which has been
    operating in a legal void for 7 years is also WITHOUT any ISO 9000 or
    ISO 14000 accreditation. Quite frankly Mr Bradshaw,it beggars belief
    that thetwo largest Oil Companies in the World, BP and Exxonmobil are
    allowed to operate in the absence of the ISO standards.

    If BP are operating their North Sea Oil Rigs in the absence of any ISO
    standards, it is MOST LIKELY a catastrophe similar to the Gulf of
    Mexicco could occur in British Waters.
    I seek the assurance of my Memeber of Parliament that ISO Standards
    are being applied on ALL British Oil Projects
    with thanks

  • Dear Sir/Madam:

    If a liquid natural gas (LNG) tanker were to break up on the high seas; it would freeze the ocean 1/2 mile in diameter.

    The leak at Deepwater Horizon could be frozen by releasing liquid air around the leak site. If there are problems related to the high pressure at these depths, another gas (N2, He, etc.) or solidified gases could be used.

    In addition, the current surface oil skimmers’ efficiency could be increased by pumping liquid air in front of the skimmers’ booms.

    This solution is not only non-toxic, as opposed to Corexit (full of PHA)s, but also will greatly reduce the volatiles in the sea as some of the higher hydrocarbons solidify.

    I have written to the Coast Guard, White House without reply except to fill out forms. All I want is to have somebody, anybody respond to this idea.

    Regards,

    Charles Hill B.Sc.

  • Cathy Hennessy

    I live near Pensacola and have visited the beaches a number of times since the oil has reached land. I have observed the bus loads of hired clean up workers and have wondered exactly where these people came from. A large number of them are extremely obese and out of shape. I watched some of them as they prepared to work on a beach site struggling into protective gear. A number of them had to have others tape their boot tops because they were too fat to bend over and do it themselves. It is no wonder they are getting ill. The temps have now maintained at over 90 degrees with unusually high humidity. It is hard for fit people to be out in it let alone many of the crew members I observed. BP/their contractors are just filling a body count.

  • Brogahn

    Using gas to freeze the oil would work, but then they would have to spend a lot of money trying to get it out, the oil is still flowing to the tanker they are collecting it in, it’s a much cheaper process. (as frightening as that is).

  • blakmira

    Great questions.
    The answer to #10 is they shut down the air space to aerially spray the Corexit over the entire Gulf area. Dead & damaged crops were noticed immediately by landowners.

    Please see new original music video “Devil’s Oil” about the Monsanto/Corexit/Halliburton, etc. connection:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=inXPug6tKiA

  • Another scam to waste media attention on spin news: BP has now distanced Tony Hayward from addressing the BP Gulf Poison. 1. We need to rename the greedy cause of the poison to not just be a “spill” or “accident”. I say we call it the “BP Poisoning of America”. This is a pattern of cheapness to make a buck on the backs, health and lives of others.
    2. Day two I questioned Coast Guard as to why they would use Corexiant 9500 without protective gear. Coast Guard on duty all got sick. They emailed confirmed it was used at 3x the allowable concentration. Those two same Coast guard officers are no longer allowed to talk. BP has two Facebooks and many other websites where they have media experts who post and answer posing as if they are scientists and citizens- go there and say anything controversial and you will be banned. 3. BP has the resources to build three concrete silos to funnel the oil up towards tankers but has failed to spend the money because cost is perhaps 2 billion and they mistakenly thought the currents would flow away and they would get the side core well in 40 days to stop the volcano. Now numerous other cracks, and blow holes along the line all leak poison gas and oil. Methane, benzine, mustard gas will leak into water table, water wells, sewers, and residential neighborhoods while Tony Hayward sails his yacht and laughs.

  • michael meredith

    This is illuminati population reduction…..

    If any of the original workers are still alive (lead poisoning, perhaps), they can tell us if they think that the whole thing was planned from the beginning, like the world trade towers incident…..

  • hmmm, BP may have taken over twitter too. how evil…

  • Alan M Dransfield

    ISO 9000 and ISO 14000 series go HAND IN HAND and whilst BP purport FULL compliance to the 9000 series it is CONSISTENTLY OBVIOUS TO ME that the BP failures towards ISO9000 compliance lies behind this debacle. For the unitiated amongest us, the ISO 9000 series is for QA/QC and the ISO 14000 is environmental protection compliance.
    Failure to meet the ISO9000 series would AUTOMATICALLY follow the environmental protection WOULD fail.
    TONY HEYWARD purport the HIGHEST possible safety and environmental protection standards and my response to that is LIE and it’s oh so easy to prove him a LIAR with a documentation trail of BP ISO9000mand 14000 series.
    Ernst Young will have conducted a FULL audit on these standards,hence, it is the Ernst Young door which neeeds kicking down by the FBI in their search for a doocumentation trail or the lack of it.

  • Alan M Dransfield

    In the mean-time the Chad/Cameroon Pipeline (CCP) operated by Exxonmobil continues to operate in a legal void with the FULL KNOWLEDGE of the World and no-one gives a damn. They will if it goes bang because 100millin barrrels will destroy the gulf of guinea but it’s AFRICA , no-one’s bothered about Africa??!! Shame on you Exxon for the CCP and shame on you BP for the Gulf of Mexico.
    There’s no GULF between Exxon and BP, they are both full of bull****, lies and decetpion.

  • Alan M Dransfield

    IS THE SECURITY SAFE FOR US OIL RIGS

    This MUST be another burning question after the breaking news and amateur video from 4/5 young guys who were fishing DIRECTLY UNDER the rig seconds before the Rig exploded.
    Tony Heyward purports the highest safety and environmental standards but allows ANYONE to fish in small baots DIERECTLY UNDER BP RIGS??!!
    It’s obvious to me there were NO safety standards,NO environmental safety and NO SECURITY.
    What sort of message does this send to the terrorist group.

  • NOW YOU READ THIS. AND WHAT DO YOU DO?
    WE CANNOT LET THIS HAPPEN AND JUST WATCH!

    Worldwide BP Protest Day, July 10,2010

    http://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Worldwide-BP-Protest-Day-July-10-2010/130251936998581?ref=ts

  • Alan M Dransfield

    Another burning question is WHY did Tony Heyward the BP-CEO sell £1.5 of his BP shares only a few wek before the oil spill. Selling large slice of your shares is NOT the action of a CEO whom purport HIS company to be the best thing since slice bread.

  • Alan M Dransfield

    Anadarko,BP partner in crime on the Deepwater Horizon DEBACLE have refused to accept any guilt in the oil spill and their CEO made this statement yesterday.
    quote
    ‘BP’s behaviour and actions likely represent gross negligence or wilful misconduct and thus affect the obligations of the parties under the operating agreement,’ he said
    unquote.
    Did BP hold a gun to the head of the ANADARKO rig managers saying YOU WILL OPPERATE ILLEGALLY OR WE WILL SHOOT YOU.
    I don’t think they did, therefore ANADARKO have failed their duty of care on this oil spill.

  • Alan M Dransfield

    Early reports point the finger at Haliburton for improper cement works on the Deepwater Horizon rig but there are also fingers being pointed at Haliburton for buying out Boots and Coots only a few weeks before the explosion. Tony Heyward the BP CEO also sold a large slice of his BP shares only a few before the oil spill??!!

    If it was the Haliburton cement works which in essence allowed the gas to leak into the rig then ANOTHER serious question raises it ugly head,i.e. WHY was the leaked gasses allowed to enter the rig??!!
    The evidence from the 4/5 young men fishing UNDER the rig is VERY important here because they state a LARGE GAS CLOUD could be seen.
    I would be very interested to find out the “DESIGN” of this rig which should be on file somewhere because the design of the rig SHOULD have called for EXPLOSIVE PROOF equipment,eg junction boxes,switches,etc to prevent such an explosion. The design should have called for multi gass detectors which would have enabled mass evacuation EARLIER.

    Getting back to the Haliburton Cement works, which I have suspected (and reported for some time) was the root cause or at least part of the root cause but I suspect the TYPE of cement which was being used. I suspect Haliburton were using FOAM CONCRETE to seal the the well . Foam Concrete “CAN” cause explosive gasses in some circumstance,hence, foam concrete has been banned by some UK contractors for sometime now and is under further reserach. Two other KEY factors in the Haliburton cement works are,1. the centrifugal supports (CS)and the cement log book entries.
    The CS are basic supports which are installed in the well hole to keep the steel pipe central to alow for equal cement works, there SHOULD have been at least 20 of these CS used but Haliburton used only 6.The Cement Log book records times of cement pours,strenghths, tempratures, operatives names, type of equipment used etc and the LOG BOOK appear to have disappeared with the RIG??!!
    I cannot accept that the Log Books lies at the bottom of the sea because in this day and age the Log Book entries are or should have been filled via PDF electronic copy.??!!

    There appears (to me anyway) to have been systemic failures of management,controls etc which caused the explosion.

    Watch this space for more on Haliburton

  • Alan M Dransfield

    Allowing the general public to fish from boats DIRECTLY under the Deepwater Horizon rig is just not conducive to proper health and safety standards ,neither is it good practice for security reasons.
    There is evidence in the public domain that 4/5 young men were fishing from a boat DIRECTLY under the Deepwater Horizon oil rig seconds before the blast. It beggars belief that BP or any other reputable oil company allow fishing trips DIRECTLY under their rigs, falling debris,spanners,nuts and bolts etc.
    Apparently, the men reguarly fished DIRECTLY under the rigs because of IDEAL fishing conditions.
    Tony Heyward purports the HIGEST safety standards are used on BP Rigs, which beggars belief if BP allow unfettered access to BP rigs. What sort of message does that send to the Terrorists??!!
    No doubt young men on a fishing trip, smoking,drinking, dangerous gasses,etc etc,I am not saying these young fishmen were the cause of the explosion but they might have been. Apparently,one of these young men smelled the gas and had the foresight to get the hell away from the rig. VERY lucky men indeed because NOT ALL explosive gasses can be detected by smell.
    At least ALL rigs in the area should tighten up their security by IMPROVING their security and safety by DEBARRING fishing trip in close proximity to ALL rigs??!!.

    every time there are satanic rituals called war-designed to take the souls of those who willingly participate in the destruction of life-formation of Hell on earth for other innocent ‘human sacrifices’ AKA soldiers-in return satan gives those who orchestrate the rituals(wars) ‘technology’-not life supporting technology but deadly technology-weaponry-so that those who get it will want to create more wars-in order to test out their new deadly weapons-they are doing this now-they are spraying a weapon-a life killing weapon much more deadly than corexit eventually they (russia who controls the USA through Israel) will be dropping it from planes all over europe and the USA in ww3-there will be no water-no food will grow-everything poisoned-you all will be sacrificed in the next biggest satanic ritual-they killed 66 million christians in russia-to become a technologically advanced nation of atheists-satan wants an end of all religions that bring people close to God-christianity and Islam will be gone forever-that is the goal-whoever is left will become robot slaves of satan via the mark of the beast-new satanic technology

  • I would just like to express a few thoughts that we all seem to over look including myself. If we all really care about our earth and about each other….do you think the way we think has anything to do with our own destruction? Is it through the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes and the pride of life that plays a part in our final state of elimination? Then why not just refuse to purchase gasoline and oil products that continue to make the evil elite more richer and more powerful and thus the working class suppressed to suffer. Why do we think that it is necessary to use these products? Do we have any conscience left at all? Are we eliminating morals and ethics altogether? Do we want our cake and eat it too? Can we all go back to the basics and stop progress of destruction from running and ruining our lives? Can we finally in the end face ourselves and say we performed the best duties we possibly could and were good stewards on this paradise of earth God has left us? We will all finally wake up one day and see that unity for the truth will only set us free and that we must all be pro active. Let us therefore, begin a total band on all products coming from these people that are destroying our earth and our God given livelihoods and the future for our children and our childrens children. This will only work if we as a mass of people come together as one and finally say enough is enough. We must as a group not only talk a good talk but walk a good walk not only next to our creator but with each other. We are brethren together by seed whether we like it or not. He has given us a brain to think and reason. So, let us stop complaining, stop arguing, stop being separated, stop fighting, stop talking, stop pointing fingers and most of all stop continuing to be contributors to the death of this plant, that our God Almighty has place in our hands to be responsible stewards and protectors. We are not excluded from fault! We must examine and look within ourselves first before begin to point fingers at each other. We have allowed this deception to go on for hundreds of years…being in our comfort zone and lethargic. Let us stop worshiping the creature (ourselves) more than our Creator. The evil of this world can be brought to their knees if we take away what is so precious and valuable to them. The most obvious MONEY and POWER. The time is now to join hands together and make strong decisions in our lives even if it means to suffer from the lose of our toys, our jobs and yes, even our relationships that continue to contribute to the destruction of this planet. My brothers and sisters let us all wake up…..we are killing ourselves and time is running out…we are the only blame for our own demise. God has never stopped pleading with us to come to him fully with our laden burdens in prayer, repentance, supplication and meditation on Him. Have you never experienced his infinite love to you? Well, I have numerous times and I hope and pray you will. Can you imagine if whole nations would get on their knees in prayer to our Great Creator? Can you imagine how over filled our baskets would become? By only the way of the truth can this happen. We are to think on things that are true, things that are honest, things that are just, things that are pure, things that are lovely and of good report. These are things of good merit, it is a quality of doing right and avoiding what is wrong first! This is the meaning to strive for moral excellence. He and only He within us will give us rest. It is written in Gods word in the bible… As it was in the days of Noah shall it be in the last days. Is it not time my fellow man to heed to our Creators calling?

    Answers to the 16 Questions:

    1. Control the public. The military are expendable, and apparently, so is the public at large.

    2. Exactly – shrug it off on someone else, let them take the fall. That is the controlled Military / Industrial / Gov’t. corporate way.

    3. Because the above mentioned corp. beareaucracy temporarily allowed it due to of course … GREED.

    4. They want to keep it off the surface so no one will see it. It then clumps under water and moves as a toxic glob, still however, able to reach shores around the world. This is not US problem – it is a problem for the whole earth.

    5. Kill them. H2S or Hydrogen Sulfide can be smelled at just 1 part per million. At 1000 per million – you are dead. (it could be billion – have to find notes)

    6. See # 5 above.

    7. You Bet – and I, in S. Florida may be right behind them.

    8. Wackenhut is just another corporation at the disposal of Washington. They are obviously in ignorance of what they are up against breathing these toxins. Once some of
    these are in your system – they stay in our system, causing brain, kidney, liver damage, and cancer.

    9. Their vane attempts to hide it.

    10. Isn’t obvious by now?!?

    11. They cannot .. and nobody can. The pressure was over 100,000 psi from the pipe. They have punched a hole in this giant resevoir of abiotic oil. It is now an underwater volcano. Ruptures are inevitable, and so are the disasterous results of more oil, toxic gases and radiation coming forth.
    ONLY an earthquake could fix it. Prophecy has fortold of one. Look for it 11 months afterward.

    12. It is a byproduct of abiotic oil. So is dangerous chemicals called VOCs (volatile compounds) including Benzene, Toluene,
    Ethylbenzene, Xylene, Naphthalene, Hydrogen sulfide, and others.

    13. Obviously to hide the facts and truth of the matter. They don’t want to cause alarm. Just sit there and die.

    “The petro-chemical-military-industrial complex is gassing Gulf Coast residents with poisonous Benzene and Corexit dispersant at dangerously high levels in the largest U.S.
    domestic military operation to date,” writes Deborah Dupré.

    “Human suffering in the Gulf is increasing from the world´s latest and largest toxic oil kill as BP lies and government remains silent about human health risks and associated military interventions. Most immediately damaging of the operation´s withheld information pertains to toxins breathed since the explosion.”
    More info here …
    Gassed in the Gulf

    14. See No. 5 and 12 above.

    15. See No. 11 above.

    16. Absolutely .. and it is well on its way. There is already a ‘dead zone’ due to the pesticide and chemical runnoff into the Mississippi River and out into the Gulf.

    Go to this page and read Parts 1, 2 & 3
    The American Nightmare

    You will see the TRUTH behind what drilling for Oil has really done to the once great US of A, indeed the world and what is now taking place.

    The U.S. Prez. aka Barry Sotoero, or by his Muslim name, aka Barrack Hussein Obama and his communist comrades are here to destroy America and bring her down. Here is the 1912
    Barrack Husein Obama prophecy.

    “So far have they [the United States] strayed into wickedness in those [future] times that their destruction has been sealed by my
    [father]. Their great cities will burn, their crops and cattle will suffer disease and death, their children will perish from diseases never seen upon this Earth, and I reveal to you the greatest [mystery] of all as I have been allowed to see that their [the
    United States] destruction will come about through the vengeful hands of one of our very own sons.”

    Visions of the Great Nyasaye,
    A Study of the Luo Religion in Kenya

    Surely Prez Obama, and the powers behind him, are not helping the destruction of USA along with setting up Israel. Cause surely Muslims don’t hate Jews! Surely it is all just a coincidence.

    NOW – DO YOU GET IT YET?

    Another Burning Question/Was Intrinsically Safe Equipment Used on the Deepwater Horizon Rig??!!

    The attached website is information on the subject title and I bet my bottom dollar that INTRINSICALLY SAFE EQUIPMENT (ISE)WAS NOT USED on the BP Deepwater Horizon Rig.It is CERTAINLY NOT used on the Chad Cameroon Pipeline (CCP) and is WELL covered in the d HAZARD AREA EQUIPMENT(HAE)of the CFR US Standards.
    How can this be proved or disproved. I would expect at sometime in the near future the Deepwater Horizon rig will be brought up to the service and this would be a good time to reconcile if INTRINSICALLY SAFE euipment was used. IT could also be proven by reconcilation of the Operations Maintainance Manual (OMM). The original OMM is currently lying on the seabed but a MASTER COPY will be held in the Transocean/BP HQ??!!.

    Intrinsically safe equipment is VERY costly andis the one of the MAIN shortcuts in the Oil Industry.
    How can we prove if ISE was/is used on the CCP, firstly by a simple ocular inspection of the Tanker and the Pumping Stations

    I believe that the Oil Spill is going to create mass destruction to the environment and I believe it is just the beginning. Seafood will eventually perish, crops will feel the affect of the polluted earth and famine is heading our way. Maybe not today but sooner than many thought
    There are more people and organisations and institutions and governments to blame then only BP.
    But one thing IS CLEAR : Oil-BAMA should have and could have done more then he did !

  • Alan M Dransfield

    The next burning question MUST be is just how corrupt is the US Justice System after yesterday 5TH Appeal Court hearing in favour of Judge Feldman.
    Judge Feldman won his appeal yesterday and the Oil Companies have won their court appeal to block the White House 6month drilling ban.
    Yesterdays court decision 2-1 in favour of Judge Feldman comes as no surprise to me.
    I wonder how many Oil shares the appeal court judges hold??!!
    This oil spill debacle jst got worse.

  • Alan M Dransfield

    The NEXT burning question should SURELY be.
    Why the HELL are BP digging the releief wells (2#)so close to the oil reservoir.They could have intercepted the original shaft say 100 foot below sea bed level because the leak is/was NOT from the original shaft below seabed level if WAS from the pipe ABOVE sea bed level(riser pipe). Hence the leak could have been intercepted WEEKS ago??!!
    Digging relief wells SO CLOSE to the Oil and Gas Reservior must surely be potentially dangerous.
    The fact BP are digging TWO (2) relief well doesn’t bode well for their confidence??!!
    Someone should explain to BP the well known theory of, THE SHORTEST ROUTE BETWEEN TWO POINTS IS A STRAIGHT LINE.

    Their latest statement is the DEEPWATER HORIZON was an “EXPLORATORY RIG” which is absolute BULL****.
    The DH rig was drilled with the FULL KNOWLEDGE of the Worlds 2nd Largest Oil Reservoir, hence, how the hell can it be an EXPLORATORY RIG
    The DH rig was NOT recovering Oil from the Oil Reservoir, it’s sole job was to drive the shaft into the “KNOWN Reservoir” temporay plug the well and move onto the next well. But under NO CIRCUMSTANCE can the DH be called an EXPLORATOY RIG.

    This is yet another attempt to pervert the course of justice with the assistance of the 5th Circuit Judges.

Nazi operatives then used cutter charges to place two 5 foot wide and high holes in each of the four rig legs. Halliburton supply vessels then poured water into the holes until the rig sank. The sinking bent the pipe and caused the massive leak.
