BP Climate Catastrophe Update: Polish Experts Say Europe Having Worst Winter in 1,000 Years.

As we’ve been fearing, there is further evidence pointing to one of the catastrophic possibilities caused by BP’s criminal and homicidal negligence at the Deepwater Horizon well in the Gulf of Mexico.
A South African Internet news site reported on January 30th several items that add credence to our last post on this subject. First, they cite “Polish meteorologists” claiming the Winter of 2010-11 to be the worst in Europe in 1,000 years.
Yes, the coldest in a millennium
Second, they cite Scandanavia, in particular, as proof. This comes as no surprise if what we described in earlier blogs about the damage done to the Gulf Loop by the dissipating submerged mountain of oil, Corexit, and methane….courtesy of BP…was accurate. (more…)
BP Oil Disaster’s January 2011 Update: Chiselers, Environmental Criminals and Climate Changers

Horizon Explosion ~ America’s Chernobyl
Out of sight, out of mind? Sucker! That’s exactly what BP and their U.S. government and mass media allies want your brain to work (or not work). If you don’t keep paying close attention to the world’s worst environmental disaster ever, YOU may well become one of their millions of victims and not even realize who to blame and hold responsible for your misery.
First, that oil that spewed from that wellhead is still mostly there, underwater, doing damage and the worst is yet to come. (more…)
The Warsaw Ghetto Kibbutz Makes the Hardest Democratic Decision: Death with Honor
Monday, November 1st, 2010By Georges Metanomski
GERMAN ARMY IN GHETTO
Editor’s Note: It is often said by elitists, to disparage democracy, that “the people” are not capable of making the hard decisions, where they can overcome their harsh circumstances by making severe sacrifices. This testimony of a survivor of the destruction of the Warsaw Ghetto by the German armed forces in April 1943 proves that such a statement is not only false, but a lie about the strength and wisdom of the human democratic spirit.

BP and the Gulf of Cheney: Paradigm Changer?
Tuesday, June 15th, 2010By Peter Weiss
The BP Gulf oil fiasco is entering the chaotic stage. The rising cacophony of noise and needs screaming out from everywhere + those endless pathetic images of creeping calamity and death + the sheer impotence of anyone to effectively change any of it = an aimless, scattershot, boiling rage unique in the American memory bank.
Pandora's Box
“Pandora’s Well,” as wildlife expert Jeff Corwin has termed it, will permanently alter the Gulf and everything in and around it. Four states and incalculable lives and life are being diminished each second Pandora belches forth the hideous gurgling, churning column of toxic filth.
Ocean explorer Jean-Michel Cousteau, Jacque’s son, interviewed on the PBS NewsHour, said this:
“I’m talking about now something which is, who knows, 10, 20, 30 times what the Exxon Valdez has done, which is happening right in the Gulf right now, and still going on, and is going to spill out into the Caribbean, into the Gulf Stream, and it’s going to go all the way to Europe.” BP may yet come home to roost. Yet the fault is not Britain’s any more than it is others affected by this grotesque travesty.
The blame belongs to us, the United States of America. (more…)
Boycott BP and Expel These Global Corporate Criminals From America
Monday, May 3rd, 2010By Ted Becker
It is early May and the greatest oil spill in American history continues to grow. British Petroleum,known to one and all as “BP,” has added its most heinous crime against humanity and Mother Earth to its long and inglorious list.
About 4 years ago, in March of 2005, gross negligence by this company led to a huge explosion at a refinery in Texas City which cost 15 lives and injured about 180 workers. BP settled a number of court cases and lost a billion or two dollars in lawsuits. Shortly thereafter, U.S. investigators reported that BP was well aware of the safety problems at that refinery and that many of those problems were due to “cost cutting.” Read the Washington Post story here
Remember the great oil pipeline “leak” in Alaska that shut down that state’s largest oil field in 2006? Yup. BP once again. Take a look at this NBC News report at that time: (more…)
