The BP oil spill continues to poison the sea, and US citizens are starting to feel like there's more than meets the eye in this story.
The potential magnitude of what is unfolding in the Gulf of Mexico simply cannot be overstated. It is far, far worse than what is being admitted and what we are allowed to see is catastrophic enough.
Lawsuits claim that the explosion on the Deepwater Horizon rig, 52 miles southeast of the Louisiana port of Venice on April 20, was caused because Halliburton workers improperly capped the well — a process known as cementing.
Oddly, just eight days before the Gulf blow-out, Halliburton also announced that it had agreed to buy Boots & Coots for $240.4 million. Who are Boots & Coots?
Boots & Coots are the world's largest oil-spill clean-up company, which also deals with oil and gas well fires and blowouts.
Goldman Sachs sold 44 per cent of its holdings in BP, a total of 4,680,822 shares worth the best part of $300 million, in the weeks before the Gulf disaster that sent BP shares plummeting.
BP chief executive Tony Hayward is reported to have sold his £1.4 million shares in BP a month before the explosion. The profit allowed him to pay off the mortgage on his mansion.
