  Oil Disaster: The Rig That Blew Up was never going to win any awards for its less-than-imaginative title, and true to Five's form, this hastily cobbled together documentary about one of the planet's worst ever ecological disasters was less than brilliant.
  If you tuned in expecting an in-depth assessment of the ecological impact of the explosion of Deepwater Horizon, or a look at the subsequent political fallout and President Obama's Brit-bashing in the weeks following, you'd have been seriously disappointed.
  For this is Five, a channel which sticks Ice Road Truckers on at primetime and seems to be courting a target audience of blokes who get their kicks watching massive bits of machinery been driven around by Americans with handlebar moustaches. It takes all sorts.

  Government Insiders: Get Ready for the Gulf "Dead Zone"

• 
  
  read more on oilprice.com
  

  Bad news concerning the Gulf oil disaster continues to come from WMR's federal government sources in the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the US Army Corps of Engineers. Emergency planners are dealing with a prospective "dead zone" within a 200 mile radius from the Deepwater Horizon disaster datum in the Gulf.
  A looming environmental and population displacement disaster is brewing in the Gulf. The oil dispersant used by BP, Corexit 9500, is seen by FEMA sources as mixing with evaporated water from the Gulf and absorbed by rain clouds producing toxic precipitation that threatens to continue killling marine and land animals, plant life, and humans within a 200-mile radius of the Deepwater Horizon disaster site in the Gulf.
  Adding to the worries of FEMA and the Corps of Engineers is the large amounts of methane that are escaping from the cavernous grotto of oil underneath the Macondo drilling area of Gulf of Mexico.

  At first glance when I saw this I just said, Yeah Right! But, after reading through it all, this really isn't that far fetched at all.
  There are some major toxins coming up out of this. If for some reason it isn't stopped. We may see worse than this.
  Take the time check out all these links for yourselves. If I was to add them all it would become an entire book..

  A sobering report circulating in the Kremlin today from President Medvedev's meeting with other World leaders at the G8 summit in Muskoka, Ontario states that President Obama has warned his counterparts that the Gulf of Mexico oil disaster "will most likely kill millions, perhaps tens of millions" of people during the coming year.
  Fueling Obama's dire assessment of this "Gulf Apocalypse", this report says, are the oil and toxic rains now being reported to be falling throughout the US Gulf Coast region due to the fracturing of the Gulf of Mexico seafloor allowing untold millions of gallons of oil and millions of cubic feet of methane gas to escape unchecked into our World's seventh largest body of water, not to mention the millions of gallons of dangerous disbursements being used that is poisoning everything in its path.

  Gulf Oil Spill Information for Pregnant Women

  read more on www.bt.cdc.gov

  I'm pregnant. Can the oil harm me or my unborn baby?

  Although the oil may contain some chemicals that could cause harm to an unborn baby under some conditions, the CDC has reviewed sampling data from the EPA and feels that the levels of these chemicals are well below the level that could generally cause harm to pregnant women or their unborn babies. The effects that chemicals might have on a pregnant woman and her unborn baby would depend on many things: how the mother came into contact with the oil, how long she was in contact with it, how often she came into contact with it, and the overall health of the mother and her baby.
  People, including pregnant women, can be exposed to these chemicals by breathing them (air), by swallowing them (water, food), or by touching them (skin). If possible, everyone, including pregnant women, should avoid the oil and spill-affected areas. Generally, a pregnant woman will see or smell the chemicals in oil before those chemicals can hurt her or the baby. The EPA and CDC are working together to continue monitoring the levels of oil in the environment. If we begin to find levels that are more likely to be harmful, we will tell the public. For up-to-date information on monitoring data along the Gulf Coast, please visit EPA's website.

  Important to note about in this report is that Obama's warning that "millions could die" from this disaster has been further confirmed by the American engineer who helped lead the team to put out the Persian Gulf oil fires set by Saddam Hussein in the first Iraq war and had warned a full 12 months before the April sinking of the Deepwater Horizon that BP was drilling into a huge methane deposit that if released would be beyond catastrophic, it would be biblical in its scale of destruction.

  Gulf oil spill: Undersea oil masses confirmed in tests

  June 21, 2010 | 11:33 am
  The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration on Monday released new data from the agency's latest research trip through the Gulf of Mexico, showing concentrations of oil below the surface at more than 3,600 feet below the surface, about 7.5 nautical miles southwest of the BP's blown-out well.
  The Thomas Jefferson research ship found evidence of depleted oxygen, a potential sign of microbes digesting oil, in the area. Acoustic and fluorometric instruments likewise indicated the presence of oil. Water samples taken on the trip have not been analyzed.
  Since the leak began April 20, attention has been focused on surface oil washing up on environmentally fragile shoreline ecosystems. But "plumes" or "clouds" of oil hovering in the water column below the surface, where myriad marine life eat, breed and swim, has as much or more potential to cause ecological damage to the Gulf, scientists have warned.
  The first evidence of undersea concentrations of oil was revealed by University of South Florida scientists, and was subsequently confirmed by NOAA. Monday's results generally coincide with previous data.

  Not being explained to the American people about NOAA's findings is that the live video feed of this spill being shown to them of this spill contains oil and methane gas being expelled at pressures estimated to be at 100,000 pounds per square inch (psi) and cannot in any way being associated with the massive underwater oil plumes found by the Thomas Jefferson nearly 8 kilometers away.

  "We're going to have to evacuate the gulf states," said Matt Simmons, founder of Simmons and Co., an oil investment firm and, since the April 20 blowout, the unflagging source of end-of-the-world predictions. "Can you imagine evacuating 20 million people? . . . This story is 80 times worse than I thought."

  To the greatest consequence of this catastrophe upon the American people, an FSB appendix to this report warns that the US Soldiers currently deployed throughout their island territory of Puerto Rico are in fact being trained in how to "suppress and contain" large concentrations of people and being "recycled" to military bases throughout the State of Florida where they will soon be joined by an estimated 28,000 NATO allied troops where both will join up with an estimated 7,000 pre-positioned UN marked vehicles for purposes "still not known or clearly stated by the US".

Nuke the oil spill – Video

clipped from www.ldjackson.net Okay, it has been almost a month since the Deepwater Horizon oil rig exploded and sank in the Gulf of Mexico and since that time, oil has been spilling into the water. Over the weekend, reports were released that said there are giant plumes of oil under the surface of the water, waiting to be carried by the currents. This is over and above the amount of oil that is being shown on the surface. Shepard Smith interviews Christopher Brownfield, who says explosives, nuclear or conventional could and should be used to seal the leak. I am certainly no expert, but I wonder if he is not correct. With all of the expertise our military has on placing smart bombs where they want them and controlling the results, would this work? If explosives are used to stop the oil spill, this particular oil well can be used no longer. They also question why the Obama administration has not stepped in
