Gulf Coast Oil Spill

[FishingBuds]

What a convenient way to convince all that we need to go green, with recent coal mine and oil drill disasters?

There will be more coincidental disasters, wait and see.

paranoid, yes I'am

Well like a broken clock (talking OLD style not digital), even the paranoid are right every now and then.

I do have to say, if I was an opponent of offshore drilling, I do not think I could have picked a more advantageous time for this to occur. It is a very scary coincidence but I still have enough faith in humanity to believe that nobody would do something so horrible like this.

To those in this things path...I feel for ya. While I cannot imagine what you guys are going through...there is still a chance the worst case can be avoided and things can work out. Lets just hope we learn from this and these types of scenarios do not play out again.

I'm a liberal, but have always favored drilling where possible.  As far as I know this is the first major disaster with offshore oil rigs and I did hear that there around 30,000 of them, I'm not making light of this accident but overall a pretty good record.  Time to get our energy policy really going in the right direction, drilling for our own oil, (we still need it for plastics and other synthetics), nuclear, wind, solar and other new technologies being developed.  Do people know if your home is powered by your own windmill the excess energy can be sold back to the energy company.

I'm really feeling bad for the gulf shrimpers, they have had enough to contend with our own restaurants buying foreign shrimp, prices are already starting to spike.  IMO BPS's fault, I don't know who else to blame, and their responsibility for the clean up.  BTW they  are hiring around 300 shrimpers to help, at least the shrimpers will have some income.

I heard about this on the local news last night. They are paying $1200 a day to lay and monitor booms.

No oil has showed up here yet. Now they have pushed the day back to Saturday. The winds have changed direction and the seas have calmed considerably. I sure hope the dome they have created is successful.

For the record, I don't believe this, but it's an interesting read. It is a fact that there's a media blackout over the cause of the "explosion", and a lot of people have a lot to gain from this catastrophe. I honestly don't know what to believe, but I'm keeping an open mind. It's hard to believe this was just a coincidence.

"A grim report circulating in the Kremlin today written by Russia's Northern Fleet is reporting that the United States has ordered a complete media blackout over North Korea's torpedoing of the giant Deepwater Horizon oil platform owned by the World's largest offshore drilling contractor Transocean that was built and financed by South Korea's Hyundai Heavy Industries Co. Ltd., that has caused great loss of life, untold billions in economic damage to the South Korean economy, and an environmental catastrophe to the United States.

Most important to understand about this latest attack by North Korea against its South Korean enemy is that under the existing laws of war it was a permissible action as they remain in a state of war against each other due to South Korea's refusal to sign the 1953 Armistice ending the Korean War.

To the attack itself, these reports continue, the North Korean cargo vessel Dai Hong Dan believed to be staffed by 17th Sniper Corps suicide troops left Cuba's Empresa Terminales Mambisas de La Habana (Port of Havana) on April 18th whereupon it severely deviated from its intended course for Venezuela's Puerto Cabello bringing it to within 209 kilometers (130 miles) of the Deepwater Horizon oil platform which was located 80 kilometers (50 miles) off the coast of the US State of Louisiana where it launched an SSC Sang-o Class Mini Submarine (Yugo class) estimated to have an operational range of 321 kilometers (200 miles).

On the night of April 20th the North Korean Mini Submarine manned by these suicidal 17th Sniper Corps soldiers attacked the Deepwater Horizon with what are believed to be 2 incendiary torpedoes causing a massive explosion and resulting in 11 workers on this giant oil rig being killed outright. Barely 48 hours later, on April 22nd , this North Korean Mini Submarine committed its final atrocity by exploding itself directly beneath the Deepwater Horizon causing this $1 Billion oil rig to sink beneath the seas and marking 2010's celebration of Earth Day with one of the largest environmental catastrophes our World has ever seen.

To the reason for North Korea attacking the Deepwater Horizon, these reports say, was to present US President Obama with an impossible dilemma prior to the opening of the United Nations Review Conference of the Parties to the Treat on the Non-Proliferation of Nuclear Weapons (NPT) set to begin May 3rd in New York.

This impossible dilemma facing Obama is indeed real as the decision he is faced with is either to allow the continuation of this massive oil leak catastrophe to continue for months, or immediately stop it by the only known and proven means possible, the detonation of a thermonuclear device.

Russian Navy atomic experts in these reports state that should Obama choose the nuclear option the most viable weapon at his disposal is the United States B83 (Mk-83) strategic thermonuclear bomb having a variable yield (Low Kiloton Range to 1,200 Kilotons) which with its 12 foot length and 18 inch diameter, and weighing just over 2,400 pounds, is readily able to be deployed and detonated by a remote controlled mini-sub.

Should Obama choose the nuclear option it appears that he would be supported by the International Court of Justice who on July 8, 1996 issued an advisory opinion on the use of nuclear weapons stating that they could not conclude definitively on these weapons use in extreme circumstances or self defense.

On the other hand, if Obama chooses the nuclear option it would leave the UN's nuclear conference in shambles with every Nation in the World having oil rigs off their coasts demanding an equal right to atomic weapons to protect their environment from catastrophes too, including Iran.

To whatever decision Obama makes it remains a fact that with each passing hour this environmental catastrophe grows worse. And even though Obama has ordered military SWAT teams to protect other oil rigs in the Gulf of Mexico from any further attack, and further ordered that all drilling in the Gulf of Mexico be immediately stopped, this massive oil spill has already reached the shores of America and with high waves and more bad weather forecast the likelihood of it being stopped from destroying thousands of miles of US coastland and wildlife appears unstoppable.

And not just to the environmental catastrophe that is unfolding the only devastation to be wrecked upon the United States and South Korea by this North Korean attack as the economic liabilities associated with this disaster are estimated by these Russian reports to be between $500 Billion to $1.5 Trillion, and which only a declaration of this disaster being an act of war would free some the World's largest corporations from bankruptcy.

Important to note too in all of these events was that this was the second attack by North Korea on its South Korean enemy, and US ally, in a month as we had reported on in our March 28th report titled Obama Orders Immediate Stand-down' After Deadly North Korean Attack and which to date neither the Americans or South Korea have retaliated for and giving one senior North Korean party leader the courage to openly state that the North Korean military took gratifying revenge on South Korea.

And for those believing that things couldn't get worse, they couldn't be more mistaken as new reports coming from Japanese military sources are stating that North Korea is preparing for new launches of its 1,300 kilometer (807 miles) intermediate range ballistic Rodong missile which Russian Space Forces experts state is able to deploy and detonate an atomic electromagnetic pulse (EMP) device, and which if detonated high in the atmosphere could effectively destroy the American economy for years, if not decades, to come."

Sounds like part of the plot for the next Bond Film.

That's 5 minutes of my life I won't be getting back.

No one should believe anything in this "article".

What the heck is an "atomic electromagnetic pulse"? An EMP has nothing to do with atoms.

It is an EMP created by a high level nuclear explosion.

I could have read it wrong but this "article" makes it seem like a separate weapon instead of a byproduct of a nuclear explosion.
