BP Gulf oil spill Web bots predict " ill winds" & so does coast2coast guest
According to the Web bot project there will something called the " ill winds " which will force a mass evacuation of the Gulf coast area and now just recently a guest on coast to coast talk radio has predicted a similar event along with a Tsunami. Coast To Coast AM: Date: 06/14/2010 According to Richard C. Hoagland, insider sources in BP and in US Government say that there is a Gas Bubble 15-20 Miles across 10+ feet high near BP's oil well head in Gulf of Mexico. It may cause an explosion with Apocalyptic proportions in weeks or months. The pressure at the well is 100.000 PSI and when the Gas explodes it will be like Mt. St. Helens going off underwater. It will create a Cloud of Death and a Tsunami Wave traveling at 400-600 MPH sinking all Vessels around the area as well as drive all hazardous materials including the Oil inland.

MIRRORED- BP Gulf oil spill TOXIC AIR QUALITY NUMBERS JUST IN
connectingdots1 — June 11, 2010 — please have a good listen and spread the info...especially to anyone living in the area of the spill. Hydrogen sulfide: en.wikipedia.org Toxicity Hydrogen sulfide is considered a broad-spectrum poison, meaning that it can poison several different systems in the body, although the nervous system is most affected. The toxicity of H2S is comparable with that of hydrogen cyanide. It forms a complex bond with iron in the mitochondrial cytochrome enzymes, thereby blocking oxygen from binding and stopping cellular respiration. Since hydrogen sulfide occurs naturally in the body, the environment and the gut, enzymes exist in the body capable of detoxifying it by oxidation to (harmless) sulfate.[6] Hence, low levels of sulfide may be tolerated indefinitely. At some threshold level, believed to average around 300--350 ppm, the oxidative enzymes become overwhelmed. Many personal safety gas detectors, such as those used by utility, sewage and petrochemical workers, are set to alarm at as low as 5 to 10 ppm and to go into high alarm at 15 ppm. An interesting diagnostic clue of extreme poisoning by H2S is the discoloration of copper coins in the pockets of the victim. Treatment involves immediate inhalation of amyl nitrite, injections of sodium nitrite, inhalation of pure oxygen, administration of bronchodilators to overcome eventual bronchospasm, and in some cases hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO).

This was the most emotionally disturbing video I have ever done! A flight over the BP Slick Source where I saw at least 100 Dolphins in the oil, some dying. I also photographed a Sperm Whale covered in oil all around it's blow hole. Please spread this around the world. Send me any links to places it gets posted so I can follow. I want to piss off the world. Who will answer for these gentle creatures?

BP Gulf Oil Spill To Destroy Florida's Coast
BP Gulf Oil Spill To Destroy Florida's Coast
The latest projections from NOAA indicate weathered oil from the leading edge of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill could impact the Florida Panhandle as early as this week due to a shift in winds and currents. Florida Gov. Charlie Crist says oil from the massive Gulf spill is now within four miles of the Panhandle coast. Crist said sheen was spotted during a fly over Thursday. That's down from seven miles Wednesday. Crist said the military should take over the cleanup effort from petroleum giant BP PLC, saying it would make faster decisions. Officials say it's inevitable that oil will eventually wash up onshore. The spill's arrival coincides with the beginning of the Panhandle's summer tourism season, which normally brings millions of dollars to the region. The state is spending millions in advertising to convince travelers to still visit the state and its beaches. See more Florida beaches www.youtube.com Follow me on twitter www.twitter.com

"The earth is not dying, it is being killed. And those who are killing it have names and addresses."

BP doesn't own fish and the whales and the dophins, yet they kill them. BP doesn't own the world, yet it destroyed it! Oil experts: "This oil could flow, not for months, but for years to come". "A lot of devistation will occur for decades." How can we recover from such criminal and amoral disaster? How long will it take for the Earth to return to it's condition before April 20, 2010? Will our great-grand children live long enough to see the planet recover? There are sources which point out the long term dangers we face, both more catastrophic than just a polluted Gulf of Mexico. Please make yourself and others aware of this information. For those links, please go to: wakeupfromyourslumber.com There is 3000 times more natural gas coming out of the leak than oil.

The BP Gulf oil spill has reached day 33, and I have watched as it has come ashore on our beautiful Mississippi Gulf Coast. Currently, BP is still trying to use Corexit 9500 which is highly toxic to both humans and marine life. We have to stop Bp before everything we have is gone. It is only a matter to time.

The REAL REASON Behind the BP Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico - 2010
The REAL REASON Behind the BP Oil Spill in the Gulf of Mexico - 2010
READ THIS: Dick Cheney's deregulation agenda is the real (underlying) reason / cause behind the US oil spill by British Petroleum (BP) in 2010 off the coast of Louisiana in the Gulf of Mexico. Deregulation coupled with lax government oversight (lackies appointed by Dick Cheney at the helm) lead to the omission of key safety features and protocols, a free pass for drilling licenses, emphasis on profit over safety, and absolutely NO PLAN for containment of blowouts. In addition, the courts in the Gulf States, are completely stacked with Republican appointees (like Feldman) with major investments in or connections with BIG OIL (see last paragraph). Must read: www.nytimes.com For example, George W Bush and Dick Cheney helped block a 2002/03 Bill that would have required the use of acoustic switches as a means to activate the blowout preventer (BOP). Also, BP did not want to lose an oil well (by activating the BOP); this would have cost them future profit in addition to the costs for exploration and preparation of the well. This is most evident when you look at attempts in the first month and a half: all of the post-blowout efforts have been focused on SAVING the well; it was only after more than a month before BP attempted "TOPKILL", which would have sealed the well. Lastly, US District Judge Martin Feldman, who overturned the temporary drilling ban on June 22, owns investments in Ocean Energy (Houston-based), Quicksilver Resources, Prospect Energy, Peabody Energy <b>...</b>
