When there's a flood, a fire, a drought, an earthquake etc, there's dozens of countries lining up to help. When the Kursk was blown up (now there's a conspiracy theory!), the UK offered experts and submersibles IIRC.

WHERE THE HELL IS THE INTERNATIONAL SUPPORT NOW?

That alone raises suspicion!

Coast Guard Fleet Slowed by Mechanical Woes During BP, Haiti Rescues

[link to www.publicintegrity.org]

In the wee-morning hours after the Deepwater Horizon exploded, a Coast Guard rescue helicopter being dispatched to pluck oil rig survivors floating in the fire-engulfed waters could not launch because its hoist was broken.

The crew of the 25-year-old chopper was forced to switch to another aircraft, costing it 38 minutes at a time when the Coast Guard was trying to evacuate the wounded and search for missing workers who leapt into the Gulf Mexico to escape the fiery oil platform on the night of April 20.

Mechanical problems, like those detailed in the Coast Guard’s official incident logs for the BP accident, have been experienced repeatedly during the last two major crises that summoned the service’s famed search and rescue teams, an investigation by the Center for Public Integrity shows.....

The reason why BP isn't doing anything is because there is no point! It's out of control! The ocean floor has been breached and leaking uncontrollably.

And will do so for the next 30 years!

BP isn't doing anything cuz nothing they can do would make a difference!

Re: US Coast Guard GAVE BP 48 hours TO GET THEIR SHIT TOGETHER
Listen. You want this cleaned up? Here's what Odumbass and the administration SHOULD have done.

They still can!

1. Tell BP they have 1 week to clean up the mess. ( they have the resources). Hell, the Saudi's have a ship that sucks up spills like this and separates it then reuses the oil. HIRE THEM!

2. If and when they don't make progress you tell BP that their assets will be seized, they will be kicked out of the US and the assets will be used to clean up the spill to make reparations to families, communities and local governments for the cost of clean up and economic recovery. Use their monies to clean this disaster up!

3. Outsource the clean up and pay it with seized assets if we are not able to do it ourselves. This is no time to whine and complain about who does the job, just fucking do it before we lose the Gulf Of Mexico and the coastal environment.

1 week and seize their assets. This will get their attention.

Declare war on BP and treat it as such!

Norway owns 3 of the ships with ROVs (Deep C, Skandi and Viking Poseidon)
Also, 3 norwegian rigs is at the site. I think 2 of them is already drilling the relief wells.
So, ar least 6 of the ships at the site is from norwegian companies.

Norway is a small country with like 4.5 mill people living here, and we got like 90% of the gear ready to even make a difference?

Not only is Obama Guilty of War Crimes by executing terrorist suspects overseas without a trial via Predator Hellfire missiles, Obama is also Guilty of committing Crimes against Humanity (and Nature) with his lack of response to CONTAIN the BP oil spill and LIMIT the harm to US and international waters and shorelines.

Obama has utterly screwed this up his legally-required response to the BP oil spill since day one ... or rather since Day 20.

President's Schedule - May 10, 2010 ( [link to westwingreport-wwr.blogspot.com]

2:30PM
THE PRESIDENT holds a meeting to review BP efforts to stop the oil leak
Situation Room - Closed Press


Obama's legally-required actions:

Clean Water Act - Section 311

(A) If a discharge, or a substantial threat of a discharge, of oil or a hazardous substance from a vessel, offshore facility, or onshore facility is of such a size or character as to be a substantial threat to the public health or welfare of the United States (including but not limited to fish, shellfish, wildlife, other natural resources, and the public and private beaches and shorelines of the United States), the President shall direct all Federal, State, and private actions to remove the discharge or to mitigate or prevent the threat of the discharge.


The EPA's National Contingency Plan ( [link to www.epa.gov]

WHEN A MAJOR oil spill occurs in the United States, coordinated teams of local, state, and national personnel are called upon to help contain the spill, clean it up, and ensure that damage to human health and the environment is minimized. Without careful planning and clear organization, efforts to deal with large oil spills could be slow, ineffective, and potentially harmful to response personnel and the environment. In the United States, the system for organizing responses to major oil spills is called the National Response System.
