Oil giant BP announced Tuesday it hopes to have a massive information spill in the Gulf of Mexico up to 90 percent contained within a matter of weeks. Ever since a BP oil rig, the Deepwater Horizon, exploded and sank in April, the company’s stock has plummeted as it struggled to keep information about the spill from getting out.
BP CEO Tony Hayward said the company immediately implemented its emergency information containment plan.
In stark contrast to its oil containment plan, he said the company had planned ahead on how to contain information and keep the public and the government in the dark.
“Our oil containment plan was grossly inadequate. It was a pack of lies that included the contact information of dead people and ways of protecting walruses, which anyone knows don’t exist in the Gulf of Mexico,” Hayward said. “We thought we could do much better with containing information instead, and that’s been our focus.”
As examples of the company’s efforts, he noted that the company lied about the amount of oil being released, at first claiming it was only a few thousand barrels per day. It initially refused to release video of the spill and hid the fact that it had higher quality footage that would’ve made it easier for experts to estimate the flow of oil.
The company’s initial response to the spill itself involved spraying the toxic chemical Corexit to make the oil sink below the ocean’s surface where the oil and the chemicals would still damage wildlife, but humans wouldn’t see it. Corexit is banned in Britain because of its toxicity to humans and animals.
“It would’ve been more effective to contain the oil and remove it from the surface, but that’s really expensive and it would’ve made people more aware of how much oil we had spilled. That’s why we tried to make it sink. I know other chemical dispersants would’ve been more effective and less harmful to the environment but BP has a stake in the company that makes Corexit,” Hayward said. “In that sense, we paired our economic concerns with our need to cover up the spill. Unfortunately, someone found out about this. We promise we’ll do better at restricting that kind of information from now on.”
He said the company was having far greater success in failing to protect cleanup workers and restricting access to them by the media. BP officials tried to keep reporters from entering a public beach and threatened to have them arrested. When reporters ignored these threats, BP officials yelled at their employees to not talk to the media.
“I’m happy to say that reports of these types of incidents haven’t been much noticed by the public, so I’d say that information is nearly contained. Our cleanup crews have mostly been too afraid to talk to the media or complain,” Hayward said. “That’s going to help us keep people from knowing that we won’t allow our cleanup crews from wearing protective gear, even if they buy it themselves.”
When cleanup crews became sick BP tried to blame their illnesses on food poisoning, even though medical experts said otherwise. Hayward said the company has a team of company physicians devising other excuses for sick employees, which he said is cheaper than simply providing its cleanup crews with the necessary equipment or giving them medical treatment.
In addition to containing information, Hayward said the company is also using disinformation being spread by Republicans and Fox News to dilute the public’s knowledge of the spill.
“Fortunately for us we have corporate shills like Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, Rush Limbaugh, Fox News and the rest of the GOP reading our talking points and running interference for us,” Hayward said. “They tell people that it’s wrong to criticize us for our mistakes or to hold us accountable. How they manage to say that with a straight face is beyond me. Oh wait, is this conversation on the record? Oh dammit.”




Awesomeness!
BP is part of the parasitic british system which just lives off the labour of other nations and people.
Blowback” is a CIA term that means retaliation, or payback. It was first used in the after-action report on our first clandestine overthrow of a foreign government, the overthrow of Mossadegh in Iran in 1953, when, for the sake of the British Petroleum Company, we claimed he was a Communist when he just didn’t want the British to keep stealing Iranian resources. In the report, which was finally declassifi ed in 2000, the CIA says, “We should expect some blowback from what we have done here.” This was the first model clandestine operation.
===========================================
the Corporation of the City of London, is virtually a self regulating and selfserving parasitic organisation so called this financial center has turned into into a self-regulating state like the Vatican.(ofocurse for the anglosaxon protestants only God is money and nothing else.).
The ruthless advantage-seeking was racheted up around 1980 and it may have been inspired by the fact that insiders in Lloyd’s of London were facing bankruptcy, conspired to offload their losses onto 34,000 foreigners and women and got away with it.

A perfect example…I watched the show “Reaper” this last year. In one episode the devil is running a company whose business is the corruption of souls. When explaining to his son how his business works, this is his exact quote…
“Did you know, beginning in the late 19th century, corporations were granted all the rights of the individual, but none of the annoying responsibilities. They lack, almost by design, any kind of moral compass, conscience, or compassion. Basically, corporations are a way to enact sociopathic behavior on a grand scale. In short, they’re what makes this country so damn great.” this is what is called so called democracy in entgland-a corportocracy which has been exported all over to the benefit of parasitic english race.

What so called democracy really mean for the rapacious anglosaxon race(yes it is a race war by parasitic Anglo-Saxons against the rest of the world)
it is very important to realize and understand the trickery of the english race in manipulating usa to wage wars on behalf of britain which gains most from Iraq war and any war that usa imposes on the third world and even on Europe.
Here are some of the writings done years ago to give a global picture of what is REALLY happening in the world and by WHOSE agency.
The modus operandi of Britain is to make country and regions unstable and install british stooge with explicit instruction to bring the money -looted ones -to Britain from where it is not going to go anywhere else.
Some oligarch Jews (like thee criminal U.K.-based fugitive oligarch Boris Berezovsky)
were the stooge of British in Russia and they brought so many ill gotten money to uk. So did the Kuwaitis-who brought 4 billions of pounds within a week of first Iraq war problem in august 1990 -so has continued the massive loot of the rest of the world by the English .race through this money protection racket . It is money protection racket in the sense that those eliete’s money is protected only when it is made to be lodged in British London banks. The witness, who appeared on the Rossiya channel with his face hidden and was referred to as Pyotr, accused 61-year-old Berezovsky of killing Alexander Litvinenko because the former security officer knew how the exiled tycoon had obtained political asylum in Britain in 2003. This thief boris berezosvky is a terrorist as well who calls for violet end to Putin-the president who is one of the most loved of his countrymen compared to any in the world.
As someone said “We live in a world where criminals are good guys and patriots are villains: where Berezovsky is a liberal “human rights” activist and Putin is a moral monster.” that putin who is one of the most popular leader of any in the world.
say even if Russia destroys usa then if Britain or rather england is allowed to exist then the english parasitic dog race will ,by very parasitic nature, will try to disrupt Russia or other countries’ existence. therefore instead of attacking usa or poland it is best policy of Russia to attrack and destroy to the whole of england which must be evaporated to a rubble.
IN ’88 when Dalai lama, at the height of Tibetan disturbances, visited west, the then british prime minister refused to meet Him. Later on with the demise of Russia and usefulness of China gone and with manipulation to keep power in Hong Kong somehow intact, the same british media and government ,like dog, started barking at China. It is interesting that amnesty international selectively targets those very countries( as it did china after cold war) who are out of favour (because they would not be a british stooge) of the british media and govt. This is not surprising as amnesty international is the creation of british govt, and british media. england with the most appalling record of human rights in last 200 years of her evil rule, needed some organisation to keep the others from charging england off her past and current evil practices. In other words it went for aggressive posture in propaganda war so that others can be demoralized and stopped from pointing out the real evil which is england. That is why amnesty international is one armour of the british lies to exploit the rest of the world. Amnesty international must be ignored and an independent human watchdog (which england will simply ignore) created. One purpose of amnesty international is to create an atmosphere for hatred towards the would be victims of british exploitation so that a victim could be blamed to have deserved the consequences. That is why ,now amnesty international sometimes threatens China, sometimes India and etc.
Mrs Margaret Thatcher, Britain’s so called iron Lady, refused to receive the Dalai Lama during his UK visit in the late-1980s for fear of offending his Chinese oppressors. Perhaps the iron in her was wrought iron, much given to bending in the heat.
In fact Britain is running a protection racket in the world through the help of american army-(because Britain is a third rate country with fourth rate army so it cannot do it on its own).
What Britain does is let the other countries be made instable (Kuwait, Iraq, Saudi Arabia, Afghanistan etc) then let the british stooge be installed there-those people who have no following in own country and with strict instruction to those stooges that they will bring the money to britan,-that is how London has enriched itself in last 15 years after fall of soviet union. Billions of soviet money have flown illegally to London and the british court -kangaroo court if ever there was any -have not let the money go citing “it will harm england’s balance of payment”?
That is why british media gets incensed if the traitors like soviet spies are not left safe in Britain -because then the whole business of protection money racket and money that Britain gets is in jeopardy. That is what explains influx of foreign money to London and how London has overtaken new York in stock market. Forget about service industry -british are the most ill mannered race what service can they provide except protection racket on back of american arms? Britain is looting even usa. Through it is usa which has worked hard (through illegal invasions ) to make other countries unstable so that Britain can get money from protection of stooge elites of those countries..
