they did it above ground,and not on quake lines..I personally feel this was done intentionally

At those depths and pressures, there probably wouldn’t be a ripple on the surface.

Lets hear your idea.

The Russians used a small nuclear bomb. The bomb is detonated in a new well bore drilled to the depth of 6 kilometers or more. The blast squeezes the leaking well bore shut. The radioactive material is held deep inside the rock formations.
Underground nuclear explosions are nothing new. The U.S., Russia, China, U.K. et al have tested underground many times.

This was obvious from the start, but that would take away potential future profits, so they tried a bunch of other crap first.

Nuclear detonation more than a mile down in the gulf and some unknown distance down the borehole?

Somebody pack this “expert” up and send him to Somalia – where he can't hurt anybody.

How incredibly insane – what would happen from the shockwave alone?

Instead of a nuke, why can’t they use a series of bunker busters. I’m sure a few well placed bombs would easily seal the well.

just because someone makes an idiotic suggestion doesn't raw story has to print it.
peace

just because someone makes an idiotic suggestion, doesn't mean that raw story has to print it.
peace

Why not a non-nuke bomb; perhaps on of our Army's renowned bunker busters?

if they blow it up maybe instead of 20000 bbl/day maybe the whole reservoir would come out at once

that way bp can say its not their fault and us taxpayers get stuck with the bill

sounds like a winner

Jut because the nuke idea is probably insanely idiotic, that doesn't mean the News Story about the growing number of discussions of using a nuke is *also* idiotic.

Besides, you must admit that BP and all their cronies ARE Idiots, murderous idiots at that; and our Government is apparently even worse. (I'm surprised Obama didn't send one of his “accurate to the inch” drones. Oh- wait. No innocent civilians with kids out there.)

Once BP concedes they can not SAVE the well for future exploitation, it isn't hard to imagine them deciding on an extremely dangerous & dumb solution. Just for yuks, maybe.

I hope no one is forcing you to read all the “idiotic” stories. If they are, you are in serious danger of Palinitiophobia, similar in effect to hydrophobia. Be vewy vewy careful!

Use the Internet read the articles that describe how the nuclear blast is performed.
The nuclear bomb will be a small one, 20 kilotons, and will be detonated underground, under the seabed at about 6 kilometers (3.728 miles) depth in a separate well bore beside the leaking well. The blast will squeeze the leaking well bore shut.
Since, there is now a “second leak” nuke that one first and let Obama and BP fiddle while Rome burns.

PalinOPHOBIA. (My left-hand has developing arthritis, and either misses letters or adds some in. The right-hand can't keep track of what it (the left) is doing. Typing wise, I mean)

The Russians have done this successfully six times. What's your alternative?

You gotta fit it down the hole.

It's not idiotic. It's worked before. And at this point it may be the only thing between us and even worse disaster.

Maybe our Gov will nuke the Yucatan straight, block the Gulf off from the rest of the Earth's oceans, to keep the oil corralled. I bet they've talked about it.

I just hope they have enough sense to bring in the Russian experts and don't try to do it themselves.

The Soviets did it several times, successfully. What's your alternative? Slow death of the Atlantic?

We'd be in for another Die-Off, with only or uber-wealthy surviving in their safe enclaves. But with no poor people to rob, or to force to work for them, they'd soon go the way of the dinosaurs.

So how do you seal fluid under pressure with rubble?

Kind of like having a screen door in a submarine!

During the Soviet years, Russia's communists had to deal with numerous oil disasters and on five different occasions they employed controlled, underground nuclear blasts to quickly solve the problem.

[The] underground explosion moves the rock, presses on it, and, in essence, squeezes the well’s channel,” Pracda reported.

“It’s so simple, in fact, that the Soviet Union, a major oil exporter, used this method five times to deal with petrocalamities,” added Moscow reporter Julia Ioffe, writing for True/Slant. “The first happened in Uzbekistan, on September 30, 1966 with a blast 1.5 times the strength of the Hiroshima bomb and at a depth of 1.5 kilometers.

Sounds like a serious suggestion to me.

What's your alternative?

Donald’s right. The “package size” of a small nuke is small enough to get down the bore-hole to that depth. Also, even great amounts of conventional high explosives couldn’t begin to match the explosive force or heat generated that might be needed to do the job. As others mention, it would be like any other underground nuke test of the past – much smaller, actually. Little effect at the bottom or water column above. Maybe the caution in accepting the Russian experience as applicable here is the similarity or differences between the deep structure of the bottom here and the kind of strata at the the Russian sites. It could seal the problem hole, but open other fractures, depending on strata type.

A problem with ONLY that approach is that it might take months to bore a new hole that deep. Also, if there is another major source in the near-neighborhood it indicates that there must have been a sub-bottom explosion that fractured or forced opened another vent (such vents that large have never been known to occur “spontaneously” or on their own” – maybe another old capped well that got shaken?). If there is another vent nearby, a big explosion, even at 18,000 ft depth, could produce more fracturing and oil. Gotta find out about this possible other vent.

The mis- or malfeasance of not having a developed and proven method and gear for containing a runaway well at this depth before drilling aside, the approach of developing and trying one method at a time, in solving the problem, at hand is equally incompetent. The relative “costs” of potential damage should have been obvious, if not on the first day, then certainly by the seventh. In such cases, expense is no object. You get every decent idea you can and develop them all in parallel – the same for data gathering to get a realistic picture asap. You sure as hell don’t leave it in the hands of a “for profit” corporation that is always watching the bottom line – even in emergencies. The pretense that legally- (non-technically-) trained politicians are going to solve this problem is equally delusional. They don’t even seem to be able to “manage the organization” of a credible response by technically expert people.

The Soviets used it on dry land, not under the sea.

Just think, if they nuke it and a million barrels a day start coming out, then not only will the gulf be dead from oil and radiation, but so will the rest of the north Atlantic. Then, the birds who eat the dead radioactive fish. Then, the people who are exposed to the dead radioactive birds.

Agree

Agree

Agree

Let's remember that the Russians told us that it worked 4 out 5 times & they didn't tell what happened to the one that DIDN'T WORK.

Thanks for the clarification – didn't realize the Russians had a different situation.

Wait so there is a second leak? Wow, BP has kept that a secret for a while. Man I hope those guys burn hard for screwing up so hard. More political news here

So, let me get this straight. The strategy to plug a hole about 10 feet wide maybe, is to use a weapon designed to destroy a city, and'll leave a hole about that wide, on it? Does this make any sense?

I have a better solution.

Have the government threaten to nationalize ALL oil properties in the US and the oil companies will come up with a way to teleport the leaked oil into outer space. Guaranteed.

Wow, detonating a nuclear bomb off the Lousiana coast… talk about a “DEAD ZONE.”

Yeah, and the whole reservoir bubbles up to the surface and catches fire. How does one extinguish a billion barrels of crude oil? The black plumes of smoke? Instant ice age. Maybe the snow will put out the fire.

If it turns out that BP has been HIDING THE TRUTH from the American people about a larger secondary guiser.. all colluding steakholders need to be arrested imediately, for their own protection, if you know what I mean..

Why not wait for a hurricane to uleash all of this vicious hydrocarbons on the poor unsuspecting rice, cotton, soybean, corn and tomato farmers when their crops are infested with a furious blow of oil on their crops. Now, wait until it sprinkles oil on the interstates. USA is shut down. BTW, has BO made a hole in one on his vacation to Chicago?

Perhaps we should just run down the list, find the 100 most culpable folks, and shove them in the hole!

All oil properties should be Nationalized anyway! The come out of public lands (or seas) ergo, they belong to “We the People”.

This is proviong to be a totally Out-Of-Control scenario. If we are lucky, we will get a chance to wake up (like NOW), clean up our act and move into the 21st centrury with clean and sustainable energy. Otherwise it's just going to be the elite locked away in their bunkers that keep the thread of human population alive on our poor planet Earth. We have screwed up royally, and all because we have been unconscious stewards and have bought into the paradigm of hyper consumerism as a way of existance.

Excuse me, but Russia recommended this the first week the well starting gushing and destroying.

BP will not stand for it because they would lose an oil well.

With all the escaping natural gas there'd probably be a fireball to the moon.

But BP shouldn't have any more say, since they're proving incapable of doing anything except f*cking up and lying. Nuke it, close it up, and bar BP from any more drilling until after the criminals running it are convicted and put away, and they and every other oil company are subjected to very strict and strictly enforced regulations. Otherwise it'll be more of the same.

Now is the time that the Oil Industry executives are praying to their financial gods that the billions they have spent on feel-good advertising and image manipulation across the globe will pay off. The pay off will be measured in sales not lost, laws not changed, and a public's opinion not soured on oil. They have already managed to disperse the oil in ways that reduce the immediate visual impacts but actually increase the scope and duration of toxicity to living organisms. A close call to say the least….

Now, they must work tirelessly to ensure that the people of the region target easy scapegoats on which to vent their anger and never, never, never associate the blood-sucking, bone-picking vultures that are the oil companies with damage to their own health or the health of their environment.

Oil profiteers sit with baited breath wondering if the techniques they've perfected to lie to the public, induce unnecessary demand, and create, as Noam Chomsky once called”Atoms of Consumption” will work under the stress of an actual crisis. A distant concern that the U.S. President may not do everything they paid for him to do adds a vague sense of dread to their sleep apnea nights. Thankfully, there's Ambien.

This “expert” is a banker.

Never. Going. To. Happen. In. The. US!

Unfortunately, since yes, it's OUR common wealth that these greedy monsters exploit and enrich themselves on.

If I thought there was even the slightest possibility that *any* American administration would take this step, I'd probably try to cap the well myself. Unlikely either way till the end of time.

Thanks! There is some sanity on this site. This is absolutely stupid… anything could happen, we could open the entire pocket up.

Thanks! There is some sanity on this site. This is absolutely stupid… anything could happen, we could open the entire pocket up.

I'd like to see a fireball to the moon. Kin' A, baby. But then, BP would probably just try to figure out some way to imprint its corporate logo up there, and it might take an addition 6 months..

I've been waiting a long time to hear Americans wake up to the fact that Energy is a basic human right and should be controlled by some sort of an administration government or otherwise! In reality it is not a socialist or communist agenda but just plain common sense that if tax payers are going to subsidize and build the infrastructure how is it a bad deal to own the product that these energy companies get for next to nothing and make so much profit! This delusion that it is a conflict to interfer with big business is what they want you to believe which is tatally unfounded!

Just what we need…a banker claiming to be some kind of a nuclear detonation expert…We're phucked if anyone listens to him.

There can be no doubt, it's time to send in the military. In a time of national emergency like this the draft should be exhumed as well. We'll mass the troops on the beaches of the Gulf and at a carefully coordinated time they will all rush into the sea like vapid, deranged lemmings all wearing funny hats with feathers and stuff. I can see the movie trailer; Forrest and Bubba save the pelicans and the oyster beds with Tom Hanks staring down the gusher. Run, Forrest, run!

The Russian's recomended doing this and no one thinks their getting punked?

Or is this an SNL skit……Oh Really?

Blow up an underwater oil well with a nuke?

Really?

How does the REM song go….It's The End of The World and We Know it…..

lets nuke bp while we're at it..

Why are you morons showing a picture of an air blast hydrogen bomb to illustrate a story about under sea floor detonation of a small atomic bomb? Isn't there enough confusion and stupidity floating around already? Shame on you Raw.

I don't give a shit how they do it as long as they do it yesterday.
Shit or get off the pot BP !!!!

The Soviet Union did it numerous times–successfully, I might add.

sheesh, who are you people? why is it idiotic? the military has detonated many nuclear devices under the sea during 50's and 60's. pretty much every nation with acknowledged nukes has detonated them under oceans in testing. google it…

THE DEATH PENALTY TO ALLTOP BRASS FROM BP FOR NOT DOING THERE JOB.WE WILL BE PAYING FOR THIS ON YOUR INSURANCE PREMIUMS AS WE STILL ARE FROM 9-11.SOMEBODY HAS TO BE ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS .

This “expert” is a banker with Alzheimer's, methinks. I wondered about his mental health when he started yapping that the Deepwater Horizon wreckage, wellhead, and primary leak were six miles away from the leaking riser. That was immediately debunked. The nuke shot suggestion clinches it…. Matt Simmons is barking mad. Y'all think it's a mess now? Fracture the top of that formation. Suggested site for intelligent discussion: http://www.theoildrum.com.

C'mon, I'm sure BP just got unlucky. Who knew that pressures at 5k feet unerwater would be too great? I'd be ROFLing if I wasn't crying inside.

Excuse me, but our military seems to be busy right now. Coincidence? I think not…

At least he pronounced “nuclear” correctly. Who knows, maybe he took physics in college?

Physics can be a real motherfucker. Especially if you're an idiot manager/CEO/politician who's afraid/ignorant of sciency mathy stuff.

Yeah there's a big question mark here not being addressed. Why a nuke? Why not another, weaker bomb? This thing is so powerful it'll take a nuke? Is that what's behind all this? I hear the Russians have done this 5 different times before to deal with similar problems

Bomb, bomb, bomb..
bomb, bomb the well.
See…John McCain might have been able
to handle this just fine.
(if he could get Sarah to STFU)

Well, if some guy who predicted a spike in the price of oil says we gotta drop a nuke down the well, I guess that's what we gotta do.

It has to do with the size of the hole, you can’t drill a hole big enough for conventional explosives, also to do with heat, conventional explosives can’t melt the material well enough to “weld” the zone shut.

This the best “simplified” explanation required for the average sub-standard American “education”…

Technically speaking, these offshore drilling operations have already been nationalized.

That's provides little comfort for a the nation that has already been corporatized.

We're in deep shit. A nuke? Why a nuke, and not another kind of bomb? About a month ago I first heard from what I then thought was a fringe source, familiar with offshore drilling, engineering and geology, that this is the only way to stop this gusher which has such an incredible amount of pressure in it. They also had some very doomy predictions of the gusher that I won't get into.

We've got to hear about this possible, bigger, 2nd gusher/leak. Incredible, that even liberal media has been trusting BP's word so much all this time

This won't just turn out to be a major environmental disaster but, how will our economy survive this? I have even heard that there's so much oil that will contaminate gulf states (mainly florida) so badly that large areas of them could become uninhabitable. I worry that this could be the final nail in the coffin of this country

Well it was just a matter of time with all the devistation the Americans have caused around the world and the killing of innocent people that it is payback time. I am very saddened by the effects on the ecology and innocent animals, but can't shed a tear for the general American population. You deserve this in spades and much more. They are just getting what the deserve for what they have done to others. The longer this goes on, the more suffering and pain it will cause Americans. It is a sign of the greed and disrespect americans have for life and others that is coming home to roost

The report of the second leak is believable in that Mike Williams, a survivor of the DWH Disaster, during the 60 minutes interview mentions the abandonment of a first well in the area by BP. See: http://article.wn.com/view/2010/05/27/BP_oil_sp… Go to the right hand menu and select 60 minutes.

Its no wonder Obama and BP were being so secretive at first.

About, the nuclear option: a new well bore on the seabed is drilled near the leaking well to the depth of 6 kilometers (3.728 miles) or more depending upon the type of rock formations and the location of the gas/oil deposit. A 20 kiloton nuclear bomb is inserted into the new well bore and detonated. The nuclear blast squeezes the leaking well bore shut. Radio active material is held inside the rock formations.
The Russians were successful 4 times out of 5 using the nuclear option when they were faced with mega-disasters. The one failure was attributed to placing the nuclear bomb too close to the surface, only a coup of kilometers.

Even though the well is offshore instead of onshore the principal is the same. Drilling the nuclear option well should take less time than the 3 month relief well schedule of BP. Any how, the Russians could advise on their experience.

The Russians have done this many times according to some reports. Not an ideal solution to say the least, but what can be done? And before everyone forgets, let's start passing some stricter regulations and up the liability cap for these greedy big oil corporations to try to prevent this from every happening again. While we're at it, how about finally thrusting into green energy too?

What is really funny is the fact that not one dumbass church has called for a “prayer” or show up on a coast to “lend” their support. They can not wait. But now, when the rapture comes, they will be “deep” fried in oil.

If its' broke – nuke it! Now there's a plan – sounds more like something that GW would have thunk up all by himself. Better idea, stuff enough oil execs and bankers down the hole until seals.

God, we're a friggin dumb nation.

Nuke it? Are you friggin kidding me? THats absurd.

A) how is this affecting americans? it's killing animals and sea life. B) the general American population that you speak of is innocent as well. you obviously are jealous that you are not an american and probably live in some shack some where and envy all that americans have accomplished. go sell your jealousy somewhere else!

Timothy Raffield is the only man that can fix this fuck up.
Until you get that man out there to fix the problem, it won't be fixed properly
but something tells me this is staged. I think it's staged to release enough carbon dioxide in the air to choke out mankind so the aliens can breathe. Seeing how the climategate failed because of lies they needed to provide evidence that there was indeed global warming.
Indeed there is global warming, people who do not deal with the people who are responsable.

That second leak, he says, is so large that the initial one is “minor” in comparison

so they're gonna nuke it and fuck it up even worse probably opening up koresh knows how many more fucking holes!!!!

there goes the food chain

I think the aliens could find a better planet than Earth. There are probably
hundreds of thousands of them out in this galaxy alone that haven't been fucked up…yet.

Just when I thought the area couldn't get radioactive enough, the nuclear option will certainly control the pollution and save the wildlife and heal the ocean, what could go wrong? And when it succeeded nuclear energy could be sold as the ultimate solution to all of our problems…not the least of which is our lack of identity with natural forces and their order.
Troglodytes would be more in tune with this world than US.

Poor dear. You were in the military but hate war. You should have gotten a real fucking job instead of playing soldier if you felt you had some fucking morals. Too bad you weren’t killed in action.

OK, so you drop a nuke down the well, “hopefully encasing the oil.”

This sounds less like a plan and more like a notion.

While I agree that it is time to send in the military (not too sure about exhuming the draft), it is shameful for you to disrespect the military by impling they are 'vapid, deranged lemmings'. I was in the military, and I abhor war. But I said a vow and signed a contract that required me to protect even the most worthless among us with my life, because we are essentially of the same tribe, and I was to do so at the pleasure of our elected president. I made my pledge during Reagan, who I still despise. It takes a good deal of personal grit to get up every morning and look a certain horrible death today in the face, yet continue at the task at hand to the best of your ability. If you are so ungrateful for this service that you can mock all those who've sacrificed for you, well, sir, with all due respect, you're not fit to lick any of our boots.

WTF WTF WTF WTF.

Because a nuclear bomb is hazard- free too? This is coming from a banker? A BANKER?

Jesus, the lunatics are indeed in charge of the asylum.

Yes, payback is a bitch – and her name is Katrina.

Anytime that someone says that they'll tell you “all you need to know” or that their solution is the “only solution”, you're certainly hearing arrogance and probably hearing ignorance. Real learning is always a humbling experience in that the more one knows, the more one realizes how much more there is to know – that is, how little one actually knows.

Multiple solutions should be worked in parallel here – not this stupid one-after-another process.

Lighten up, man. I wasn't serious.

That would only introduce more toxins into the Gulf.

Enjoy your oil America.

Too bad they didn't do it last month. Perhaps War-boma is frightened by what his friendly fans would do, being that they're kind of dumb, all for the environment and have their head in the sand about war. It's all the ones aimed at cities people should be frightened of, not one being blown up where it can't hurt much.

Water is about the best shield of radiation out there and the hole is 13,000 feet deep starting at 5,000 down.

Whenever you let the potential for human greed to exist where the fate of the planet is concerned, you're playing with fire.

I served in the military as well, took the same oath and took it seriously and this oil well is NOT THE ENEMY. STUPIDITY and allegiance to straw men, hollow issues and FEAR are not included in the oath and neither is failed technology and fighting for the very oil barons that disabuse us and our troops by their inability and unwillingness to make an honest deal with the countries whose resources they are raiding. If we invested the resources that we have wasted in recent wars in the very countries to help them develop their resources, we would be a different country.The nobility of serving in the military is used by the corporate elite to compensate for the lousy education system they have purposefully created and the domestic poverty they produce. Personally, I have never experienced anything quite so duplicitous and corrupt as the military; it needs to be reformed in every aspect so that it deserves the expressions of respect as stated so nicely by darwingirl.

Do it now.

Guest, you should direct your death wishes towards someone or something more deserving. Darwingirl is NOT THE PROBLEM. Your misogyny most certainly is a problem though and something you should deal with somewhere else. I would suggest that you start by googling “Brain death” to discover other symptoms you may be unconsciously displaying.

No fun to say, but it might be a valuable “learning” experience for Americans. Usually you are the entity that inflicts damages on others. Chemicals over Vietnam, depleted Uranium over Iraq…This time you”ll have to learn to live with some heavy shit in your own backyard…..

The 2 reasons this solution has been ignored is because of how sensitive the base of this administration is to anything nuclear, not to mention just out and out ignorant.

OH MY FREAKING GOD!!! NUUUUUUKES!!! AAAAAGGGGHHH!!! NOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Just grow up already. THERE IS NO OTHER WAY TO STOP THIS MASSIVE DISASTER…

The other reason is just as sickening: BP is trying to salvage the well for financial purposes.. That's right kiddoes, they are STILL trying to turn a buck in the face of utter devastation.

Many of you are right, the government SHOULD take over.. But not this government, I would prefer if the Russians stepped up to the plate. We could pay Medvedev with our worthless treasury bonds, besides, the real payoff will be the photo-op for Putin.. Probably him shirtless standing on the deck of a Russian platform, his hand on the detonator..

I think I'm moving to Russia, I'm just plain SICK of these pencil-necked dorks we tepidly call “leaders” around here…

“detonate it, hopefully encasing the oil,” he said.”

Hopefully? With a nuke? God help us all!

“you obviously are jealous that you are not an american and probably live in some shack…..”.

Your intellectual exercise hits the limit of your argumentation expertise.I am jealous indeed, your idiocy must keep you warm during harsh Winter times. ROFL

So what do they do when the bunker buster (or nuclear warhead) blows the top off the oil dome and opens it like an underwater bowl of soup?

Let me guess; you're a catholic cardinal with as much knowledge of engineering as ethics.

Dave:

I can see that you are an American firster. Whoo hoo! Waive the flag there as we go murdering millions across the globe and toppling democratically elected government who do not do our bidding. Dictators are much easier to control – who cares if the people of that country are collateral? America is getting her just deserts for the shit she spews on everyone else around the planet. Payback is a bitch!

Nice thinking. So now, instead of several 22″ openings and maybe one 48″ blow hole, we'll end up with an open canyon with nothing to stop the entire reserve from pouring out like a flash flood of Republican diarrhea.

On top of that, it's a good way to blow the whole lid off that oil dome.

Or blow the whole fucking lid off. Think on the bright side. We all evolved from seawater billions of years ago. The earth may be about to develop a whole new form of lifeless carbon-based mineral chains that space aliens can mine.

Bullshit darwin girl thats your choice dont expect the rest of us to life by your mental state we are all individuals and most capable of defending ourselves.
If they nuke this oil volcanoe they will unleash a tide of misery never before seen on this planet and any fool who whould use an atomic bomb to stop an atomic bomb is a FQWIT.

Sorry – the military is too busy occupying countries thousands of miles away and killing innocent people to be bothered with actually guarding our own shores.

This is gonna cost BP so much that us taxpayers will have to bail them out and of course the BP executives who have been under so much stress culd use a portion of the taxpayer bailout money to give themselves a huge bonus. Hey its the american way now. Gov’t of the corporations, by the corporation, for the corporations.

I am Puertorrican but lets examine the devastation you are talking about…save Europes behind during WWI and WWII, Helped Europe stand on their feet with the marshall plan. Developed Japan after the War. Continues to invest heavily thru USAID with food in every part of the universe and other aid for earthquakes etc. Continues to be recipient of every outcast and poor that contries all over the world kick out. Took humanity to the moon and space. Created and developed the internet for human use and well being along with computers that save life, aviation was born there and developed commercial aviation. The list goes on and on and on. Is that called devastation???? Lets look at the countries that export terrorism and destruction around the world, yeah, when stuff blows up and people gets killed… that is what i call devastation. Iam really growing tired of my money supporting the rest of the world and countries like yours!!@!

another thing is this , we need to get unhooked from oil. We have the technology, the middle east can keep that junk and swimm in it. A day will come when we no longer need that stuff and no longer necessary to stick our neck for countries in the middle east anymore.

Drill baby Drill was the GOP motto during the past elections…..!!!!!

Oh hell yeah, a million gallons isn't killing the Gulf fast enough. No, we need to let War President Obama pop a nuke releasing 10 million a day. Yes We Can!! That's called progress.

Attitudes like this are why everyone hates Americans. The arrogance is nauseating.

Damages are capped at 75 million dollars. Which is chump change to these guys. They know what they are doing. We will be responsible for the bill.

In soviet russia ou nuke the leak??? Awesome Russia FTW

[...] Tencer Raw Story May 30, [...]

I predict that the Russians will try to take credit for BP's latest idea….

DAMN COMMIES!!!!

Why?

Deepwater oil and gas is contained under pressure within a sandy slurry. There is not a dome or bowl or balloon of liquid. It is a field.

That said, surely we have more than enough firepower to seal the pipeline. Remember shock and awe? We ought to be able to do it without nukes. Put the equivalent explosives down there and implode the breaches… with the surrounding rock and mud.

The big question is why we didn't do this after the first week!

“Why don’t we just drop a nuclear bomb on the Gulf oil spill?“, Christian Science Monitor, 13 May 2010 — “The Russians have used nuclear bombs at least five times to try to seal off gas well fires, and it usually worked.”From the CSM article: …Soviet experience with nuking underground gas wells could prove easier in retrospect than trying to seal the Gulf of Mexico’s oil well disaster that’s taking place 5,000 feet below the surface. The Russians were using nukes to extinguish gas well fires in natural gas fields, not sealing oil wells gushing liquid, so there are big differences, and this method has never been tested in such conditions.(Done quoting here)So, if this is going to be discussed and considered, I think a little clarity is in order. The Russians did not nuke underwater oil-gushers. They nuked land-bound natural gas well fires. We are NOT talking about the same thing here. I would suggest that anyone from the President on down to the lowliest news-forum commenter (such as you and me) factor that into any discussions on the subject.

I have developed a most trust worthy technology by way of which it is now possible to float all kinds of R.C.C. structure Be it floating Ports, Oil Rigs, Floating Bridges etc. of any size and weight very easily including R.C.C. pipes of any diameters. Please visit my web site and look for 7/10 technology capable to—– icon at Top Right side providing photos of RCC slab being floated as per photo provided here under as well.

View shows a man standing on R.C.C. Cube of 3ftx3ftx3ft weighing 800 kg
Now it is possible to flat R.C.C. Structures of any size and weight & even RCC Pipes

For Gulf oil leak all we need is to create R.C.C. pipe of required Diameter and keep on sinking every two hours about 10 meter of pipe after R.C.C. for every 10.m. – is set.
Diagrammed here under provides a look at the method to be adopted

The pipe will be created by Slip-Form method as is done for RCC chimneys in Thermal Power plants. The pipe will keep on sinking by floating and sinking with increase in weight at top as per calculations of Archimedes Principle- till the mouth of pipe reaches the leaking point. Once mouth is placed in position. Cement concrete mix will be filled on the Sea bed through multiple funnels provided at the bottom to permanently seal the leak. For more details I can be contacted on mob Phone 09350248154.(India)

You might want to make sure you have the whole story before you go around accusing people of running off half cocked.“Why don’t we just drop a nuclear bomb on the Gulf oil spill?“, Christian Science Monitor, 13 May 2010 — “The Russians have used nuclear bombs at least five times to try to seal off gas well fires, and it usually worked.”From the CSM article (red emphasis added): … the Soviet experience with nuking underground gas wells could prove easier in retrospect than trying to seal the Gulf of Mexico’s oil well disaster that’s taking place 5,000 feet below the surface. The Russians were using nukes to extinguish gas well fires in natural gas fields, not sealing oil wells gushing liquid, so there are big differences, and this method has never been tested in such conditions.
(done quoting)

Note that this refers to natural gas well fires that are NOT under water. It simply isn’t the same thing.

Sorry, a lot of developed nations donate billions to help countries in need – at interest, of course. Otherwise, they wouldn't bother. Foreign policy is a whole discussion in itself and I think that is the main issue. America has as many ills as it does good, so you shouldn't have such a “pro” stance towards them.

Regardless, I have nothing against American's and “Kanwal”'s comment is riduclous.

Oh, and for your information, it's a common myth that America invented the internet, England. Look it up Tim Berners-Lee – try using the internet. All America did was peddl and market it.

The Supreme Court has codified it , corporations are people , money is speech … Welcome to Wonderland , Alice…

I’m all for it but I think we should use conventional explosives… Our military and our government certainly has something that can be used other than nukes. Mind you, I’ve been screaming to blow it since April 26 when I called all my representatives in the House and Senate to do it.

We all know BP doesn’t want to blow it because they’ll lose all that valuable oil… those fncking Bastards!

what part of “small” nuclear device did you not understand?

Of course, because you found it on the Internet it MUST be true.

No. Since I work at CERN, I am well aware…Berners-Lee invented http and html: the basis for the www. However, the web is not the internet. The internet was created as a us DARPA project. As you say… look it up.

…

RT @Perceiver1219: @TheOilDrum #oilpocalypse #oilspill #news #BP…

Saved Europe’s behind? We were dragged into WW2 kicking and screaming, only “coming to the rescue” when we were attacked by the Japanese. We certainly didn’t do it as a favor to Europe. Fortunately we were able to help the others who had fought Hitler from the beginning while we were waiting safely across the Atlantic.

The outcome was heroic as were the troops, but let’s not pretend we were coming to save anything but our own interests. The reality is impressive enough without wrapping the story in American jingoism.

It’s exactly that warped sense of exceptionalism that slant the typical American’s view on just about every international policy issue there is. Our democratic system was obviously exceptional causing it to be copied around the world, so now there are many “exceptional” democratic countries. But as individuals there is nothing unique or exceptional about Americans except their own sense of importance.

Fuck YOU kanwal ! That has to be the most IGNORANT statement I think I have EVER read…I am now dumber for even reading it….how DARE you make a sweeping generalization like that about Americans as a whole…I’ll have you know that the vast majority of Americans do not like how our government and all the big corporations have conducted themselves…do the entire human race a favor and go nibble on a gun barrel you blithering IDIOT! !

Because it’s like you said…they are MORONS…stupidity runs rampant on the internet.

Did you not pay attention??…it is documented that the Russians have used this technique MANY times over the years to seal run away GAS wells…if they are detonated several thousand feet below the sea floor it will just colapse in on itself..it will NOT just open a great big hole like some have theorized…I really wish people would learn how to read and pay attention!!

Greed is the problem… And the greedy politicians won't regulate the greedy bankers, or the greedy oil companies, or the greedy etc., etc… The only thing they can't get their greedy hands on is the rainbow… “The soul would have no rainbow if the eye had no tears.” –Native American Proverb — Their problem is they have no tears…

I agree and that is what I have been asking ever since the beginning of this disaster.I have been reading about the Russian's use of nukes in oil disasters and have asked why can't we just do it now with conventional explosives. The answer is, “YES WE CAN”…but it takes guts to make the choice to buck a corporate entity. If the administration does it, the republicans complain, if the administration doesn't do it, the repuiblicans complain. Who cares, if the leak can be sealed now, it would be heroic.
Then we can prosecute BP as a criminal enterprise that through its greed has accomplished an attrocity that any decent terrorist organization could only fantasize about in their wildest dreams.

It's time for BP to be shut down, its assets seizes, all of its executive officers, board, and CEO imprisoned for fraud, ecocide, gross negligence and manslaughter. But of course that won't happen under a broken, corrupt system of government that is owned by the corporations and the billionaires.

If we detonate the bomb close to the surface of the seabed, we get the added benefit of burning up a lot of the oil and a super-dispersant effect beyond that, atomizing some of the plumes with the shock wave.
SIgn us up!

Nuking the Gulf — what a Real American solution! Take everything you can and shit over what's left and crow about your freedom. What idiots. What tools.

We don't care 'bout no lil' spill
To fill my tank we gotta drill baby, drill!

Um….the B stands for BRITISH.

there is evidence of a second oil leak about five to seven miles from the initial leak that BP has focused on fixing. That second leak, he says, is so large that the initial one is “minor” in comparison.

!?! WTF !?!

Why the hell don't they make a GIANT Tampon (or the equivalent) and plug that sucker? There is no good reason that f*cking leak isn't stopped. This is ridiculous! I say we should gather all the BP @ssholes, put them in the middle of the desert, and NUKE THEM!

Has anyone questioned what the F*CK “British” Petroleum is doing off OUR coastline anyway? WTF is a British company, and nort one of our own, off our coast? I have a real problem with that!

The USA want the oil to be refined for their gas guzzlers and easy non-stop consumption — well now they’re getting it in spades. As for this stupid story about nuking the leak, well that’s a non-starter.

The oil well belongs to Transocean, a US company. BP just lease it, or what’s left of it a mile under water.

With BP global profits a just under $50 million per day, $75 million caps them off for no more than a 2 day loss. Nice example of the new elitism doctrine of fascism at work. How about limiting the civil liability of the average citizen to 2 days pay regardless of responsibility and level of damages. Can you here the lawyers and the political recipients of their contributions stroking out right about now?

And by the way, BP like Shell and all other major oil companies are properties of the Rothschilds. If you wish to strike those responsible — STRIKE THE ROOT!

I have a vision of what might happen were they to nuke it. Headline news:

GIANT CRACKS OPEN ON OCEAN FLOOR

OK, let's try that again.

I had a vision of what might happen were they to nuke the leak. Headline News:

GIANT CRACKS OPEN ON THE OCEAN FLOOR
Oil gushing out from hundreds of areas after nuked
Scientists worried about possible collapse

Maybe this is an unfounded fear but there it is. Besides, this pipe is 22″ wide. Nuking it seems a bit excessive. If nothing else works maybe some small scale explosives around the leak to try to cave it in…

This is an OUTRAGEOUS idea..
So, which would you rather have… Nuclear waste or Oil dumping into your precious food supply and Ocean..
This is a very sick and irresponsible response that must not happen at any cost…
I think we've gone crazy..

Even though the Soviets used nukes to stop leaks almost a half century ago, they did it under
drastically different circumstances both geographically and politically. First, they did it in isolated areas on dry land. Deep underwater and in the middle of an important economic zone presents incalculable problems which only experts can resolve. Second, there are innumerable nuclear testing treaties now which didn't exist then which must be checked. The public can speculate all it wants about the feasibility of nuking the leak, but ultimately it will be experts who have studied the scientific and legal problems that will decide.

Because Dimwit, America is held by the short and curlies by such as the British Petroleum.

What you going to run your cars on? Your power plants on? How will you maintain your military without BP and Royal Dutch Shell?

If you did that to BP, virtually every foreign oil company would embargo the US, the US already is under import requirement for its critical needs, your country has six weeks of fuel before you get a total dry up of stocks, do you comprehend what that means?

Mate, trust me, the rest of the world is heartily sick of America.

USAid=CIA conduit thought I should add…

Another FYI is that if AMERICA, the land of the free etc etc hadn’t financed Hitler into power in the FIRST place then WWII would never have happened.

You swaggered into the war after getting over your initial cowardice, whilst your so called friends and allies were getting pounded into the dust, you lorded it around the place like you owned it all and claimed victory when Russia, not America broke Hitler’s forces, during that time here in the UK some 3,000 rapes were reported by American forces, you sicked an ambassador onto us that was giving the Nazi’s secrets and supported the IRA, even though we kept the Nazi’s in Europe, protecting America, we were charged through the nose by shysters and racketeers in Washington for the privilige.

You mention the Marshall plan, what about the Morgenthau plan and how Eisenhower exterminated 6.5m Germans as well?

Idiots like you are why your country is going to shit, you look down your noses at everyone out there, expect it all, think you are better than the rest of us but tell me… in 70 years… how many wars you won? Tell me, how many times has America wrecked the global economy? How many millions of dead are on the hands of you and your country?

You swaggered into the war after getting over your initial cowardice, whilst your so called friends and allies were getting pounded into the dust, you lorded it around the place like you owned it all and claimed victory when Russia, not America broke Hitler’s forces, during that time here in the UK some 3,000 rapes were reported by American forces, you sicked an ambassador onto us that was giving the Nazi’s secrets and supported the IRA, even though we kept the Nazi’s in Europe, protecting America, we were charged through the nose by shysters and racketeers in Washington for the privilige.

You mention the Marshall plan, what about the Morgenthau plan and how Eisenhower exterminated 6.5m Germans as well?

Idiots like you are why your country is going to shit, you look down your noses at everyone out there, expect it all, think you are better than the rest of us but tell me… in 70 years… how many wars you won? Tell me, how many times has America wrecked the global economy? How many millions of dead are on the hands of you and your country?

Yeah, stretch the mouth of the BP CEO over the leak and make him eat all that he can. Death by oil should be his sentence.

LOL, yea lets seize a forgien company assests, how american of you.

You blame the CEO for the leak when it was probably more likely the fault of the 11 people who died onboard the platform, his job isnt to dive down a hole and asses rig equipment you ass, blame the guy who did that wrong.

Or more to the point,”Bush.”

Why not? We've seized the assets of foreign countries before, why not foreign corporations?

This is an utter disaster that is unnecessary. We need to dump millions of tons of specific clay on top of the leaks. It will seal them and neutralize the oil, gas and chemicals dispersed so far. If we don't do this then life as we know it has officially ended.

Why isn't any of the truth on these spewing volcanoes of oil getting into the major media? Who is paying them of the tamp down on this information?

Hehe what a moron you must be if you think its useless…

I live 20 metres from a freshwater fast flowing river that has no pollutives upriver, I can look in any direction and see hundred of thousands of acres of some of the best arable land in Europe with plenty of scope for coppicing and building with lumber set in a nicely defensible area, I think I prefer my chances when it goes tits up to yours lol

I lol so much at people who think the government will come sailing over the horizon with some sort of magical remedy, an instant replacement for oil, yes green energy of course will save us all, trouble is, its all a load of bollocks, I will survive… will you?

I wonder what would happen if one of you fools were to find and putblish the phone numbers ansd addrsseses of all fhe BP executives on the internet? I pray to God none of you do that soon.

The US has the guns, it would be a simple matter to simply seize all the assets of BP and other companies in Iraq, Saudi Arabia, etc. Auction the infrastructure off to US companies and the workers won’t miss a day, they don’t care who signs their paychecks just so long as they’re signed, and the oil will keep flowing to US markets without a hitch.

Just so we’re clear, we’re not talking about a military occupation of their corporate offices. The BP executives can stay in London and give commands to their staples and paperclips. We’ll let them keep those.

It’s legal for US companies to donate to political campaigns in the US, but not for BP to do so. So I’m guessing that this idea will have traction in Congress once the US oil companies realize that once they take over BPs assets, all of BPs profits will now be theirs as well.

BTW, if you nuke that hole, you’ll turn the Gulf of Mexico into an oil slick for generations to come.

I hope that none of you fools find the names, phone numbers and addresses of responsibible BP executives and publish on the Internet. That would be a misguided, stupid and malicious thing to do.

Most of you probably don't realize that the ultimate owner of BP is the Zionist Rothschild family in Europe. Its consortium partner is Halliburton, the people that brought you 9-11 and the Iraq genocide.

Nothing happens by 'accident'.

Someone sabotaged this iol well. 'Means, motive and opportunity.'
Who stands the most to gain from this, either financially, politically or personally?

This catastrophe is a declaration of war on the people of the United States.

The line in the sand has been crossed. It is time to overthrow them.

This is the end game of electing Republicans to government. This spill is 100% a result of the Republican Party's drive to de-regulate corporate scum, and never hold them accountable. Even though the Democrats may share a small part of the blame, imagine how hard it is to be an “environmentalist” in a “conservative” area.

http://www.RepublicansAreADisease.com

The more “conservative” someone is, it seems, the less they care about our planet, our world, and our children's future. Most of them don't even think man is causing the earth to warm, regardless how fast glaciers, and the polar ice cap is melting.

Gulf Disaster = 100% the fault of Republicans and their ideology of greed, and profit at any cost. Every single American that voted for the Bush Crime Family should be in Louisiana being forced to clean oil off of birds and shorelines. Every single one of them. Period.

Republicans Are A Disease, and the sooner we help the ignorant understand it the better.

Oh the ignorance is splendid tonight, so you think a country that can barely beat a band of rag tag militiamen can now forcibly garrison Saudi Arabia, Iraq, parts of Russia, Venezuela, Iran and a goodly part of Africa?

Its illegal for BP to give money to congress? I think the Sunlight Foundation might have news for you then:

President Obama – $77,000
Rep. Don Young (R-Alaska)—$73,300
Sen. John McCain (R-Arizona)—$44,899
Sen. George Voinovich (R-Ohio)—$41,400
Rep. John Dingell (D-Michigan)—$31,000
Sen. Mary Landrieu (D-Louisiana)—$28,200
Rep. Joe Barton (R-Texas)—$27,350
Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Oklahoma)—$22,300
Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky)—$22,000
Rep. John Culberson (R-Texas)—$20,950
Sen. Kay Bailey Hutchison (R-Texas)—$19,500

All of the above are active serving government members.

But you really do believe that you can just waltz in and do stuff like you said in your comment? How long do you think that America would last if it started doing that?

So OK, the US seizes RDS and BP, nationalises the US facilities and thinks itself rather clever, the power that BP and RDS has in London’s City is enormous, America just lost one of its major economic allies and investors, RDS is partially Dutch who have rather a lot of clout in the EU, things are beginning to look very rocky indeed for American export markets to Europe as is American imports from countries like Germany, France etc. As the situation deteriorates, the EU markets isolate the US as has London, the EU always courting Russia for energy promises Russia what it takes to bring about the same and China seeing the writing on the wall, drops its economic nuke and junks the dollar to try and grab as much euro as it can before the dollar goes into the negative.

As the dollar crashes and burns, oil markets immediately switch its trades to the Euro and your bright idea just killed your country…

Remember mate, America isn’t the biggest or the most powerful right now, China and Russia can call up standing armies equal to your population, your armed forces are stretched thin across the planet, you are dependent on countries hostile to you for your oil and resources, dependent on one country in particular for credit, do you think you can win a war against China when even the Pentagon grapple with the problem of what is seen as an unwinnable war? Do you think your country can take over the world in six weeks? Because thats how much fuel you have in reserve, without which your mighty planes, tanks and ships are useless, the Chinese prefer bicycles as they require no oil at all to run.

Do you not realise that your politicians sold your country’s soul years ago? That your country is owned by such as the Chinese, the British and others? That your President, the self styled “most powerful man” in the world is actually the bitch of the banks and the corporations such as BP and Royal Dutch Shell?

Good luck with that…

BP can't solve this. The government needs to solve this.

let just throw in the top 25 liberals ending with mike moore's fat ass or maybe joy behar's. Well 2nd thought we all know crap floats so i guess that would'nt kill the well. But it would make me feel better anyways

The Government does not know how to resolve it and does not have the equipment or technology. It's not the Government's responsibility, they signed an agreement that states Oil Companies must clean up their own mess and pay for all costs involved. BP is lying, they do not know what to do because if they did, it would be done by now. Say goodbye to the Gulf of Mexico and any life in it.

BP is 40% owned by US investors, be they individual investors, pension funds, etc.

OK, here's my worst case scenario: Hurricanes dump oil soaked rains over the south west, Cuba, and everything from the Yucatan peninsula on back around. One long, hot summer day after the rains have dried up, the oils will start vaporizing. One lightening strike and can you say, “light up the grill”? Maybe 50 – 60 million (US) dead…god knows what the rest of the region would be.

Time to run, children…it's coming.

south east, that is…

“Probably the only thing we can do is create a weapons system and send it down 18,000 feet and detonate it, hopefully encasing the oil,” he said.

–

Incorrectly spoken. If you got down to that depth it puts you INSIDE the oil reservoir. They only have to go below the BOP stack.

The Ancient Hopi people's made a prophesy of the distant future with 9 stages leading to the End Time.

The 7th stage was that people would see the ocean turn black.

Laugh your ass off, cockbreath. A few more weeks and that kind of comment will get you strung up. BP isn't the corporation you want to be defending right now and pointing a finger at the dead who cannot defend themselves is fucking despicable you spastic. Jesus H. Christ, talk about dumber than dogshit.

Gulf of Mexico Ecocide:

A new leak, even bigger? Now nuke it. And what, you might ask, is the backup to that? If it works we'll celebrate, but really guys, what's the backup? I assume the so-called “relief well” now underway would also be destroyed by a nuke. If the “weapon” fails a new relief well would have to start from scratch, adding another 3-months of oil gushing from this, these or “x” number of holes. Like the ill-fated Deepwater Horizon rig, I feel like we're being pulled over the event-horizon into an ever-deeper, dark hole.

No good choices. Except, of course, BP stocks.

Hey Daniel Tencer.

One prominent energy expert known for predicting the oil price spike of 2008 says sending a small nuclear bomb down the leaking well is “probably the only thing we can do” to stop the leak.

Non sequitur much?

The government will fix it! Just like it fixes everything!

You people are losers.

When the government finally gets finished “fixing” YOU … some of us will have the last laugh … comrades!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

We Nuke Britain first

Hellfire the well

http://www.nukebp.com

Berry Soetero (Obama) you are such an ass….!, get down there and declare an emergency, bring in 10,000 troops to start sucking up oil and take control of the BP operation…if you nuke it…you WILL be out of a job and you will be sent back to Kenya!!!

Good ole fashion Texas hanging of those 3 nice fellers on TV

HANGEM HIGH

This is what needs to be done

Nuke Britain
Nuke Jewland who owns Britain(your doing the Palestinians a favor)
Nuke Mexico
Nuke NK
2 nukes for China well maybe 3(population control_

How about instead of nuking the well BP is forced to pay for the drilling of two relief wells to take the pressure off this well head like was done for the Mexican well that spilled back in the 1990's?

This is minor part of the punishment due to BP CEOs. It is the conspiracy to take down Obama and democrats!

NUKE the fucking Hole for Christ sake!…instead of keep discussing bullshit,like who to blame…the damage is done.And for all those assholes that keep saying that BP,or another fucking oil company is doing this,or that,is OUR fault,because we are the bitches of the oil companies,we demand,they provide..and to .all those fake “eco warriors” hope your car is not running with GAS,asshole,becase if YES,kepp your pie hole shut and work for the solution to plug the fucking hole,and every time that you stop at the PUMP,think about you,as another BP bitch.

This is a crystal clear example of what happens when stupid people are in control of a dangerous situation. People die, animals die, and a whole planet is put in jeopardy!

If they play with bombs, expect it to get even worst!

What I find amazingly hilarious is BP and the Government quote numbers of 5,000 barrels a day leaking. Now, they say it's five time more. Hey, buttheads, didn't you think we would see the oil eventually? Why would BP be drilling for only 5,000 per day? Hello? Doesn't anyone do real math anymore?

End game is happening now, they will never stop the leak and expect oil to cover 1/2 the Earth in a few more months! Nice job all you Masters Of The Universe!

When goons with guns visit your “secure” place, you will be happy to share your water and product of your labor for “security” their guns will provide.

Do you have well trained and armed local militia?

That is 100% right.

Dear President Obama, I am so confused with most of your decision making which is a great disappointment to me . I had so much hope that you would be the one we could count on to bring us to a better world. I am asking you to take BP's intervention into all of our lives away from them. Surely you can see that we need the help of other countrries who have faced this type of problem before such as Russia to help us. Let us not be proud and stupid. Let us be bold and ask for help. Sincerely, E. Reizer

Yeah that’s true. Otherwise this problem would have been handled within days.

The people who vote for their ‘team’, democrats or republicans, are the last people to figure this out. It’s like switching from diet coke to coke zero back and forth while not realize that they’re still drinking soda the whole time.

It’s the governments fault too, with their 75 million liability cap.

Why didn't they nuke it right away? The Russians did it already 4 times succesfully! No problem isn't it?

Why?

This will reap our ecology the anus that we haven't room for…

Let alone the Dead Zone, for GENERATIONS.

!!!!

Miniature Nuclear Device, with the big oil having elected, respectfully, the President, fear is the only direction that keeps a Global disaster in becoming… The death of EARTH.

Call Navy Team 8 and learn that deep Ocean Drilling is a 'fools errand'. The call should have dropped within the first 48 hrs., and reason can only speculate why the 'football' was not 'fondled' and 'Touched'.

With respect for President Obama… This is above Katrina and will be his Waterloo.

P.s.- I was not an environmentalist before but am Twice now!

Communism doesn’t save anything. It’s misguided bleeding heart syndrome. The road to hell is paved with good intentions and communism will never work with humanity. People will always be selfish, greedy and heartless, no matter what system is in place. At least in a truly competitive market the little guy has a fair chance. In a communist, corporatist, fascist country the little guy can’t do this. You need to learn about what communism truly entails along with free market, and no, that’s not George Bush.

I hate to say this but BP is using chemical dispersants so the oil this is spewing gushing and or leaking cannot be recovered by a flotilla of super tankers (ala Saudi style) refined and sold into the market. I believe there are forces at work to make sure this does not happen no matter what including our friends the government. This is because the poo would drop exponentially and the tax revenue base generated from retail sale of gas would evaporate in an instant.

That aside and even if that were not true I have discovered that there are no available supertanker to do the required task…they are all being used as floating storage tanks at sea because there is no market for the oil. The oil industry is in a glut. Iran has 11 fully loaded super tankers on lease containing enough oil to provide all the energy needs of Europe for one day and more in the atlantic waiting on higher prices before unloading. This could be a win win for the economy if the poo were to drop to Clinton era price of $15 per barrel.

hey jakartahead – go back to what you do best – stop thinking, it gets you in trouble…you’re an order taker..they say kill you kill, please go be a tough guy somewhere else

The man is an idiot. If they need to drill to 18000 feet to place the weapon they are in the production zone and can kill the well via conventional methods.

Would a nuke work? Yes. Is a nuke needed? NO.

Interesting article,thought you would like reading,folks thought the Russians were crazy,they stopped for wells with nukes.

Maybe the experts should take Russia's advice.

seismic events dont have to be nuclear

Yes by all means, use a nuke !

That’s a moot point as the oil that’s already there will migrate out of the gulf and be drawn into the gulf-stream and on up the east coast into the north Atlantic.

don,t need a nuke, used shock waves from sonic device we have the tech lets get moving.

No offence, but has this guy Simmons have any first hand info on this leak? The well is about mile deep, that's (the last time I checked) 5,280 ft. He wants to set of a nuke at 18,000 ft,or 2 miles plus inside the well…
How does he plan to get that far down inside the well? And more importantly is the well anywhere near that deep? I doubt it very much!
So, if there was some way to get that deep, it would have to be inside the oilfield.
Great plan, I'd say…explode a nuke inside an oil field that is many many miles across & full of(you guessed it!) oil!
Talk about fireworks!

Actually an underground nuke at the right depth and distance from the well bore would close off the hole without making it bigger or releasing radiation. Underground nukes behave very differently from ones above ground – they create a cavity lined with melted rock that confines almost all the radiation, with a “crush zone” around it that would close off the well if placed the right distance away (~50-100 feet).

A 150 kiloton nuke makes about a 100 meter diameter cavity, with about the same radius of crush zone around it. The stuff in the cavity is very hot (thermally) but the volcanic glass liner that forms contains almost all of the radiation, as long as the cavity isn’t at a shallow enough depth that it intersects the surface. In this case that means drilling down at least a few hundred yards, in a drill hole 50-100 feet from the well, something that could be done very quickly. In fact one of the relief wells is almost half way down to the 13000 foot target depth needed to do a “bottom kill.”

wow I can barely believe what I'm reading, first millions of gallons of oil dumped into one of the most environmentally diverse bodies of water in the world (70% of US fishing occured there), well then let's dump about 800,000 gallons of even more toxic chmical dispersant to try to send the oil to the botom where nobody can see it – while it becomes a wall of poison for every fish who swims through it. NOW, we're talking about exploding a f'n nuclear warhead which will most assuredly contaminate even more water than the oil and poison dispersants combined. WHAT A NOVEL IDEA. And wait til the hurricane and rains come then you get oil, poison dispersants AND GD nuclear radiation. Who the F put these people in charge and why are they allowed to stay there? Every thing they say is a lie why do you people keep believing it. And that goes triple for the pentagoon-scripted fake news media. Un-fn-real. This is another British provocation to decimate our self-sustinance for the future invasion of whatever horde they can buy – likely CHina coming to collect on all your wealth and even your PERSONS that they have been using as collateral for all the debt and printing trillions out of thin air.

Sadder than all this combined is that 80+% of you don't have the first clue but spoout your ignorance off like diarrhea. Don't come come crying to those of us who have beeen battling this for years, you know the “nuts” – you are on your own and you will drown in your greed and stupidity. You are not free and never have been, you are owned by the British Crown and they are owned by Rome and the cycle wil never change because you rely on the same exact people to tell you what reality is(n't)

I laugh at you sheep now. I'll suffer too but at least I tried to warn people and fight back, you'll die like cowards with a confused look on your face and you're offspring will all ask (if they live thru it) “why are we slaves now, mommy?” Well its always been this way son, authority and the law are what counts, truth and justice are fairy tales in NWO land.

I think I love you. Great comment.

They're mad. I mean really mad, as in they make Caligula look sane. As a mechanical engineer I already proposed a workable solution to both the White House and BP. That too involved sending a modified weapon down the hole(s). A torpedo with an explosively inflated kevlar balloon. I have been ignored – pointedly. They don't want the blowout to stop. The Jews, er, I mean Rothschilds (Obama's bosses) want to fuck the USA to Hell. And they will. Meanwhile the Jews, er, I mean Ersatz Israelis, er, I mean Rothschilds are going to nuke Iran to start WW3. When are you Americans going to wake the fuck up to reality?

By the way – that idea with the nuke? All that will do is release the entire reservoir of oil in a single massive blob, which only goes to prove my previous point. They want to destroy the USA – and quite possibly all life on Earth.

How long before Obama grants stimulus money to BP to help them recover from this crisis?

This was a false flag operation with S Korea, Navy SEALS, SWAT, German made torpedos and Berry Sotoero involved…get ready for Martial Law and Gun Confiscation (remember Katrina?). Nuking it will give the bankers their needed “crisis” to fully ignite the powder keg they have created!

Lock n Load!!!

A nuclear bomb to close a forced volcano? Hope they get their Cathie maths correct, otherwise it's another dud, like the nuke to the moon crater a while back.

BP was formally known as the Anglo-Iranian Oil Corporation. Maybe BP can get their nuke from Iran to seal the hole? Oh, no they can't because Iran don't have the bomb. OK, let's get one from Syria. Whoops can't do that coz Israel bombed their factory. OK, let's get one off Israel, no chance, they don't officially have them. How about South Africa who got them from Israel. Oh damn, David Cameron sold them off in 1989. What about the missing Minot nuke, where you hiding that Cheney? Whoops, wasn't it his company (Halliburton) who fucked up the rig.

Wake up people……..you are being turned over big time.

“The US has the guns, it would be a simple matter to simply seize all the assets of BP and other companies in Iraq, Saudi Arabia, etc”

Yeah, look how easy that was in Iraq. Of course, there are a few lingering dead-enders, if you will.

“Mission Accomplished!”

suck a fart out of my ass

Im an eco warrior and my vechile runs on leg power.

Estimates are that there is enough oil in the reservoir to mess up gulf waters for seven more years. Until the source is depleted residents have to avoid oil polluted areas. Nuking the hole is the only alternative with results that are unpredictable. Voters should be allowed to decide if the government should take that chance. A failure could cause a tsunami which would bathe a million residents in thick smelly slime. The best choice is to live with the goo and wear high rubber boots.

it's about time! plug this damned thing!

i don't see the flower children coming up with a better idea.

Nuke the Gulf because Russians say they did it? So what makes you think the truth is suddenly coming out of Russia's mouth if everyone “hates America's freedoms?” That is one of my concerns.

Second, I believe the problem with nationalizing the oil fields is related to the democratic hogwash about every man being able to own a little peice of property. This “160 acres and a mule” attitude about land as a commodity to be consumed and exploited was used to lure people to the US and generate money for the Government. Of course one had to be a White Male back then. Now, even what is left of public land (the Commons) in America is being privatized. Why not what is under the land (oil, gold, silver)?

Congress is not interested in whether actions are good for the land (even when the land was stolen), only lining silk pockets. Why else would there be no-one questioning why the F–k Ups and debts of the Privateers become part of the Commons (responsibility of the taxpayers and poor) when something goes wrong?

Thirdly, it is the attitude about the Earth that is to blame. Americans immigrated to the new world. From where? Invaders, armed with not only technology but the concept of speculation. Somehow this justified exploitation of the land and the resources.

So how much of the trade over the Atlantic is going to be affected (make no mistake, it will)? What makes anyone think the “Mother Country” will not be affected?

Re-read “Moby Dick.” Think of the story as an allegory. The proverbial chickens are coming home to roost.

Drill Baby Drill! Speaking of stupid people why hasn't Palin and the RNC been down to the coast? They had a fundraiser in New Orleans just a week before the Disaster and they were all hollering Drill Baby Drill!

This event has effectively ended the political careers of everybody in this current administration.

The only solution that will work is one that will cause the idiotic base of this president to abandon him wholesale. Only the president can authorize ANY use of ANY atomic device in the U.S. arsenal, so it's controversial use will tar and feather him… Problem is, if he doesn't use the nuke, the disaster will continue to worsen EXPONENTIALLY… And expand on a global scale, by fall, I would not be surprised if oil starts washing up in Iceland.. Think about those implications.

I'm a former directional drilling surveyor, I know what's happening and to what scale, and trust me, this is going to get MUCH worse VERY soon… That sludge shooting out is mixed heavily with abrasive sand, what does sand do to metal when shot across it at high pressure and velocity?

When the wellhead fails, and my best guess it will fail within 40 days, this disaster will quickly escalate into the worst disaster in human history. If they had been working on getting a nuke down there from the get go, they might have had a shot, but now, too much dancing around the bush has transpired, their only hope is to get that nuke down there with a limited amount of time with the wellhead blown off… Either way, there will be no hiding the massive scale of all this horrific destruction, and the blame will be laid squarely at the foundations of the shrine of obama…

I tell you the truth and you delete it? Unfuckingbelievable

BP is a zionist jew orginization.
The troulbe with the world today is it's lack of leaders that really know what the hell they are doing in the jobs they have. Its the old boys network, kiss enough ass and you get the job even if you don't know what the hell you are doing. AKA george bush and Barack O bomber. All these CEO's and politicians are full of shit. Americans are full of shit. So shut up and get back in that SUV or truck and go buy some gas for it at the neighborhood BP gas station.
Home of the brave my ass, your letting the primitive illegal mexicans take over your country.

I get it now. You're a fucking JEW CUNT. You're part of the fucking PROBLEM

Any way to hear the comments of a Nuclear weapons expert???

Drill baby drill. Screw the clean up waste of time. Plop another bad boy down and keep pumping that crude. Environmentalists should be forced to lick it up of the beaches.

Who Cares ? If Obamas Volcano is not plugged up soon , Your class 101 of Bull Shit will cease to impress the Morons that find your 2 degree Community College Degree of some value !

As an Engineer we must follow the Russians experience with ultra deep oil producing wells that go into default / Nuke the damn thing this coming week or the Gulf and Pacific Ocean die .

Even though you do have a valid point because we have been sold out by our Leaders

Shoe stores along the oil drenched gulf coast are out of high rubber Boots. One greedy dealer was selling them for 200 bucks with no returns, customers were not even allowed to try them on. Goo and slime brigades will prevail by cleaning up the biggest mess in history.

Nuking the sea floor might cause some unintended consequences – earthquakes, tsunamies… may even make the leak worse. Last oil spill in the gulf in '79, the only thing that worked was drilling alternate wells to relieve the pressure.
But really, prevention is the cure. If oil spills in the sea is going to take months to fix, then we need to mandate a plan for quick cleanup in case murphy's law takes place. And put a ban on off shore drilling until it has been tested and implemented.

you’ll find it’s the atlantic ocean skipper.

Put it this way….we know more about Nukes than oil wells, and the Russians have pretty much mastered Nuke-ology…….I would take their advice, and give it a shot. (Worst case…Purple rain.)

Forget the nukes, let's pour Brawndoâ„¢ down that hole!

Now the oil is flowing out of a hole the size of a pipe – 2 or 3 feet wide. I'm no scientist but if you “nuke” the opening the hole is going to get bigger and more oil will be released. What sense is that??
It's time to bring in a fleet of super tankers to skim the oil off the surface. We also need to stop the dispersants so the oil can be skimmed off the top. This is what the previous Pres. of shell oil thinks should be done.

Impressive. The people who stand on our fences are usually outstanding citizens and professionals, but you’ve managed to offend gays, blacks, people with physical or mental disabilities and religious folk in your three sentence diatribe. Your intended point is well taken, if poorly made. Hopefully you love the ideals of your country more than you do it’s citizens. We sincerely thank you for your service.

OMG!
I haven’t laughed out loud like that in a while. Not even sure why, I hink it was the skipper that did it. I’m still laughing writing this.

Seriously, any plan of nuking this disaster is sheer madness! Anyone familiar with radiation? 56 years or so of a radiated gulf not to mention the currents dragging it all across the Pacific (lol could’nt resist) The idea is lunacy I hope everyone here can see this. Pleassssse don’t support this idea.

No, I referred to the wholesale seizure of all the wealth of the rich by billions of pissed of m-f’s. Communism to keep the stupid masses at bay would be a godsend for tyhese scum rather than the day of reckoning finally arrives

no I mean the elites would PRAY that they had fairly distributed the worlds wealth rather than the mobs coming to take it all

Fault of the eleven people who died you say? You miserable turd eating prick!

You should at least know a bit more about something, before making such a bombastic and vile comment. This thing happened, because British Petroleum cut corners, didn’t use the correct procedures and even neglected to fit some crucial safety devices.

The Minerals Management Service was remiss in allowing a far from complete application to pass also. The fault lies with BP and the regulatory bodies. Blaming 11 victims, mere workers who were in effect betrayed unto their deaths, by the same people, is just about the height of lowlife grovelling pustulence. To hell with you bucko!

Seizing assets is not a solution. Seizing assets creates enemies. United States does not need more enemies.

The problem on hand is global. BP should receive immediate international help. First we need to stop leak. Second, we have to clean Gulf of Mexico, all water and land. Third, we have to clean everything to put environment back as it was.

Questions and blame can follow.

(oops I didn’t mean to vote your comment up) It isn’t the radiation which is a risk. That’s just knee jerk reaction to the word nuclear and is evidently about all most people know about the subject. Underwater nuclear tests are not especially dangerous for spreading radiation, and it certainly won’t spread all over the gulf. The amount of radiation would not be a fraction of the danger to the gulf and life as just a few days worth of the oil. If radiation was the only downside, then I’d be all for them doing this.

On the contrary though, this has been my greatest fear from the start, because there was some talk of this idea then. My area of expertise is explosives. I also think explosives can be an excellent tool, I’ve used them for cutting, digging and clearing underwater blockages myself. However when you do this, you need to know exactly what you’re dealing with as far as the surroundings and materials involved. This just doesn’t seem possible here. I see a very real danger of applying a massive explosive and simultaneous ignition source on top of a huge pressurised “container” of oil and gas.

It may pinch it shut, but I’d be worried about it instead opening the whole lid on it and detonating the lot. I’d say there would be tectonic plate movement happening fast then and god only knows where that would lead.

Those damages are capped so long as the law and rules were followed. It seems BP has not followed the laws and rules and that cap should not have any bearing on things.

Nuke it already!

Ever hear of “Project Blue Beam”? Here it is in action. Look above the fire on the oil rig and see the blue beams shooting into the fire……there are two of them. Then look below the oil rig on fire and see the two blue beams going to the bottom of the ocean. They will never cap this leak. These can be fired from a satellite….they were testing their equipment????

Look like it was done by our government, another twin towers??

China, Angola, Cuba, Vietnam, Venuzala, Mexico, they are all drilling in this Gulf. Do you think that any of them would be able to handle a spill? If the communist enviromentalists allowed on shore drilling, this would have never happened. And any well spill could be capped rapidly. Seize BP? That idea was started by ANSWER and the Communist Party USA. (search Act now to end war & stop racism, also check http://www.cpusa.org ) This is all an organized communist movement with activists posting their “seize BP” comments all over to appear to be spontaneous and widely accepted. Do some research.

Anyone ever seen the predictioned “future map” of the United States? You know the one…the entire middle of the Americas split down the middle in collapse – the eastern and western states divided by a new and enormous body of water??? Nuke the Gulf – and then see what happens. TY

WHAT??!

Talking to hear yourself talk, I see. If you’re not going to stand behind our military then by all means, get in front of them.

I’m personally gay, and was absolutely NOT offended by what he said in the slightest bit you nasty troll.

LET me find you on Adam4Adam! LOL.

These people are not only jackasses, but tragically stupid. You know that you defend them, anyway… I’m glad you’re better than them. God help us if you aren’t!

(my pop is a Vietnam Vet … infantryman … I know from up).

Our military has the finest defenders of freedom in the world. They are appreciated for their service to our nation and our ideals. While I am fully abled and not gay, black nor religious, it is important that we not disenfranchise any of our citizens, gay or otherwise.

Ever thought of how to plug the hole if the nuke did not seal anything, but blew off the lid entirely?
Russians are not the kind of folk who have shown great care of nature nor their own kind up to now. Should you trust them???

Bp needs to be permanently removed from the drill site and the U.S Navy needs to be called into immediate action and detonate a “hydrogen bomb” on the blown well head……And STOP the madness now before “every living thing” in the gulf of mexico is completely wiped out..

With the merger of Amaco and BP The “B” in BP does not 'purely” represent “British” anymore. It is an American company also. Doh! Do your home work, BP North America's HQ is Amaco's old Corporate HQ. The state of LA has been sucking off of the teat for years, this is the dark side, or the “Piper's call” if you will, I “got's” some good news and I “got's” some bad. You know the trap. This disaster is the work of market capitalism and the influence of Wall Street which will ride the Oil horse till it breaks down, taking many of us along, in the collapse of economies and lives, then they will move on to the next host to bleed. The market will not save us, we need a Federally mandated reduction in our consumption patterns and that isn't going to happen under the current economic models Wall Street functions under. For me a simple start would be electric only vehicles being subsidized, and every new home/office building being built requiring photovoltaic cells on the roof generating the needed additional electricity to power the electric vehicles. We Americans had better get used to a diminishing standard of living, the rest of the world wants it fair share, and they are pissed off.

What is insane re; Nuking..this entire area is exactly on top of/at a deep ancient Magma Rift. This Rift extends all the way over to and including the San Bernadito Mtg. Range and Westerly to the 'Tine' at Baja Pensula intersecting St. Andreas Falt Zone, western Coast of Mexico, Gulf of Baja. That 'Fork Tine zone' is a pivitol 'hinge' for the entire Pacific Plate, intersecting with the Cocos Plt and Nazca Plt. South. This zone is an ancient Magma Rift zone, very dense rock, brittle and friable. The entire Rift zone is cracking due to the deepwater BP drilling and tapping of the Oil-domain. Due to BP's Core holes, the crack is moving West towards California. Nuking will accelerate the( probable) Mantle Breach with Catastropic Volcano-ism and the sliding of the Pacific Plate Westerly an South. Do Not Use Nuke detonation..this entire region is like a egg shell. Do not do this and cease drilling the relief well at the Deepowater Horizon, it will only enhance the separation. Can anyone out there see this besides me? These same Scientists are the same buffoons that have no problem with drilling in brittle areas of the Mantle for Oil !!

Them fools. What would nuking the well achieve other than enlarging the spill further. And once the well is nuked and furthers the problem what will be done next ? But as I always say YOU DESERVE IT YOU BASTARDS.

I already wrote the White house on this and sent some articles on ground earth displacement by using explosives. I got no answer. What is the distance from sea floor to top of well. WHere was the hardest earth formations in the drilling and what de-. These things i wish they would give out then can figure distance from sea floor to well to seal this cave- were going to use horizonal gravity by using explosives should be, we have corks screw weapons bunker busters another name. Conventional weapons. this would call ground shift displacement. IS where we move the that segmanet of crust to seal hole-cavern./passage. The pressure is too extreme of what is comming out and how deep it is. the only way is to move a speed up of nature where we shift that land fomation underneath to seal the passage -its like a tunnel and we need to seal the tunnel. Nuclear weapons is extreme but it the heat would make sure gound is turn to heated solid and land displacement. The problem is they should of never been allowed to drill that deep. its not just comming from opening it seesm they have a mulitple leaks even if you used the valve it would only blow the other holes open because of the pressure. If there going to use a valve they must blow or dof out back pass rupture line then leaving the valve open slip it one and weld back of valve then if can be shut off. I have a questio why did we let it burn for so long top and they were not putting out the fire they let it burn down to where it fell which cause this damage, why didn't they use the conventional weapon bomb where it deplete the oxygen out in there surrounding area that would of put the fire out then all they had to then is seal on top. then letting it fall causing a biger mess.

see we let the oil companies run our government, this is why we are in gulf. Do we really need oil before oil was found we used hemp oil. The first diesel was ran from it and our constitution is written on it. Because of all the lobying your governemtn wants to keep it illegal because it would hurt many industirs from lumber to oil. factoid 1 acre of hemp makes 2000 gallons of menthanol. See there trying to convince you there trying to save the planet what a dog and pony show of lies. The problem is our politicians throught lobbying has sold out ther own country. look at whats on past 10 years 9/11 which needs a new review. this war from the bush 975 lies to war. the wallstreet terrosit event where the banksters intentally raped america because of there greed and still are. That fiancial reform bill is a air cow nothing but flying cow dung and not worth anything either. AMerica needs to wake up but ithink there awake they just been dumbed down intentally by a our governemtn school standards passing ignorancy when it should of been stopped. Now we have people who will believe if the government told them that the moon is made of cheese they be out side standing with a fork. what America needs to do to gt there governemtn back is to demand to make illegal all lobbying, today there selling us out, there selling american out. We ned to put term limits of 2 terms on all politicians all these perks and benefit stop them they should have the saem bnefits of any other civil service employee. The media needs to be broken up the government and the rich eleites have corrupted out governemtn and our media fox cnn msnbc are all a big show, to brain wash America. No truth at all, because they are owned by the top 3 companies, The FTC who supposed to guard against monopolys was watch pornois also there is to many monoplolies like the banks and the government like the minerals managment to FTC, are all watching pornos taking bribes, when all this happen this when AMerica should say enough. we must illigalize hemp amd stop using food like corn to make fuel we have a weed that will make 48 items and environmentally clean items, but the oil, lumber, and many more say NO.

1000 gallons correction below

You forget the actual schematics of the situation.

The hole begins under the weight of 5000 feet of water. It continues for another 20,000 to 22,000 feet of dirt. So the oil is 25,000 to 27,000 feet under those boats.

You stick an explosive down there that is sized to only shake the dirt enough to make it settle. The concept is much the same as if you dug a hole in your back yard 100 feet deep and dropped in a quarter-stick of dynamite – the explosion would destabilize the walls of the hole and cause a cave in, not create a crater.

That’s the mechanism being applied here, cause a cave in. That the bomb is a small nuclear fission and not a chemical explosive is merely a question of “What Tool Will Meet Our Need”. And placing the charge at hole+18K feet means there will be nearly 3 miles of dirt plus nearly a mile of water weighing down on that rubble to seal the oil in.

And, one more thing. There’s rumor that BP drilled deeper than they were cleared. So it could be even MORE weight squashing the hole.

Here Is an idea to stop the oil leak. Why not all commands BP executives (and Obama) to the balance of payments and see if it slows down the drain.

You are an idiot.

A torpedo would have severed the pipe under the water, and the oil would have spilled underneath the deck of the rig, not light it up like a torch.

I’m only going to address that most not-stupid piece of your post. The rest is raving lunacy.

What ? hasn't the world's people umm or at least the American sheeples woken up to the facts that this is a direct attack/revenge against the common people of the world for exposing the elites and their scum sucking flunkies about their global warming bullshit scam ? Haven't any of you figured that out yet ??? tptb said if they can't rule the world(one world gooberment/NNWO) aka enslave us all that they would destroy the planet for everyone ! Well, it looks like they're 'well' on the way !

Assigning blame seems a bit silly at the moment. plenty of time for that later. Right now, can we please figure out how to seal the leak? If the Russians have experience with this, then the US government needs to pull their collective heads out of their elitist butts and ask the Russians for help. Even Iran offered to help, and given the seriousness of the situation and the global implications, any credible offer must be considered. While I have concerns about using a nuke, something has to be done to stop the leak(s). Enough with the finger-pointing, posturing and ass-covering already. Just find a solution.

Time for “Top Kill”, and I'm not talking about oil.

A lot of you people are as thick as rhinos; what the eff does the military know about oilrigs? They don't have the expertise to deal with the equipment or the science involved. Typical reaction, chuck BP out and put the soldiers in charge, who subsequently use blunt brute force to try and solve the problem without heeding the scientific issues. Shoving a nuclear warhead into it, that's brute force and ignorance; more like an attempt to get World War 3 going….that's why this blow-out was no accident…

No one is serious about the 'military' doing anthing. The US military is nothing more than a horde of illiterate ghetto gang-bangers from Detroit and ex-Taco Bell workers from Los Angeles.

You want this capped off, and soon, then call the Chinese or Iran, or Russia on the hot line and tell them you'll pay them well to get it done fast, and done right, and they would.

The US is no more than a trashs, has-been, loser country, not worth shit, and certainly not worth Shinola any more. It's over, and get used to it.

Dear President Obama,

End the oil problem now by taking control and using whatever means (torpedo from a sub, explosives placed by ROV) to blast the well head to collapse it and end this catastrophe – NOW.

BP has been given too much freedom to try to salvage their precious money-maker well, but it is time to shut them down!

Our country is too important to be left in the hands of an oil company that is only interested in their own profits.

WE ARE ALL WAITING…

Do you have any idea how much power the oil companies have in the U.S.? The US has three branches of government : Big Oil, Big Money, and Military Industrial Complex.

No one can tell BP what to do. It's the other way around. It will and should take an Insurrection within the US to change any of this. School's out, Kiddies.

Well lets think about it 170,000 psi a mile of water above it at how many psi? and the bedrock is already fractured according to this article. sure why not what could possible go wrong? a nuke has been the answere for all of lifes problems since the 50's anyway

Whose agenda is being served by this act of sabotage? The Rothschild's? They own BP, and the Rothschilds have been known to throw any country they please under the train, when it leads to greater wealth and power.

Who invented the Guillotine by the way? Were their Rothschilds in the equation back then?

I may be the “last one to the party” here but if a hole that was caused by a (large) conventinonal explosion or drilling nmalfunction (or other nefarious british typical treachery and worldwide destruction and enslavement) – could cause this much damage – wtf is putting an exponentially larger bomb down there? Do you realize you could ignote all of that and produce the largest expplosion ever? Especially if the rumors of 3x times more methane than oil is being released. If it was one of those gas bombs that “seals evertything “, MAYBE but they do't have one big enough and those work on air principal;s and not deep water.

Obama and the entire Congress should resign in shame immediately and British should pay every cent of reparations or we should declare on them and declare our independece permanently and kick out all of their lying criminal pedophile corwn-loyal freemasons and the organized perdophilia that is the catholic cult. Then we can get to matters of resotring economic and political freedom again, ands certainly keep our military intact because these snakes will send everything they have. All good and freedom-loving people need tro unite, spread the truth , and prepare. The elites fully intend to decrease world population by more than 50%. DO your homework so they get ther wrong 50% and we will still out number them. Hide your tech and when the the time comes we give their antiquated systems designed to blow up hopeless villagers a BIG SHOCK. There will be other nations that will rise up when the fear lifts. They will not suceed with their global order for long but it won't be a pretty fight either.

“I have always seen list's of famous Masons. To just look at the name means very little. When you date and place those names in the proper time line and placement of power you begin to see the deception and vastness of this power elite. What will shock you even more is to learn who the powers are behind the Freemasons. Notice the death's of non Masonic presidents or those who lost favor, and the shuffling of the vice presidents to get them in the position of takeover before the presidents were killed or removed. Note also the number of presidential running mates who lost the race for presidency were Masons also. A win win situation regardless of the outcome of the election. The Mason's have controlled this country from the beginning. Another interesting fact to consider is that of the 37 Presidents of the United States before Jimmy Carter, at least 18 or 21 (depending on which source you believe) were close relatives. That comes to somewhere between 48.6 percent and 56.7 percent-far to much to be coincidence, as any conspiritologist (or mathematician) would tell you. Of the 224 ancestors in the family tree of 21 Presidents, we find 13 Roosevelt's, 16 Coolidge's, and 14 Tyler's. Another source manages to relate 60 percent of the Presidents and link most of them to the super-rich Astor family. This data does not include genealogies of the five most recent President. Psychologist G. William Domhoff claims that a large part of America's Ruling elite, just like that of Europe, are related by marriage. (Everything is Under Control. Conspiracies, Cults, and Cover-Ups by Robert Anton Wilson pg 39-40)”

BP and UK aren't your enemy? Wow can I have sex with your wife then, maybe kick your dog while cleaning out your fridge. Hey maybe I'll just dump a bunch of septic refuse in your yard and see if we can still maintain a friendly neighborly relationship

trusting Russsians tops the list of most ignorant post on the whole board (absolutely stacked witht them too) – good stuff bro, it even tops irradiating the already ruined gulf, can't wait for the rains eh jackbass? Oh you're probably at a safe distance, for now

yeah a tsunami taking out the Southeast has probably been the plan the whole time, heck they might even get to hit some of those pesky browm countries too. The conspiracies are flying by so fast now (global slave system agenda is gaining rapid Speed as Obama plays the game better than that Nazi Bush – very little or no accountabiility and he knows it taking more vacations than even Bush did), oh but wait, AMERICAN IDOL IS ON!

you going to go swim in it then? Perhaps wait for the radiated and dispersant rains. Maybe you can catch some and lube your car with it or grease up your bff's rear

Further whybshould the US have WMD? We are the onyl ones to use them by decimaying two major cities fillled with almost all civiliams and the same for ther firebombing of Dresden , a completely modern city that stayed out of the war. Roosevelt and Churchhill burned evbery inhabitant in a ciy of millions AFTER THE WAR HAD ALREADY BEEN DECIDED, same with Japan.

I have developed a most trust worthy technology by way of which it is now possible to float all kinds of R.C.C. structure Be it floating Ports, Oil Rigs, Floating Bridges etc. of any size and weight very easily including R.C.C. pipes of any diameters. Please visit my web site and look for 10 technology capable to—– icon at Top Right side providing photos of RCC slab being floated as per photo provided here under as well.

View shows a man standing on R.C.C. Cube of 3ftx3ftx3ft weighing 800 kg
Now it is possible to flat R.C.C. Structures of any size and weight & even RCC Pipes

For Gulf oil leak all we need is to create R.C.C. pipe of required Diameter and keep on sinking every two hours about 10 meter of pipe after R.C.C. for every 10.m. – is set.
Diagrammed here under provides a look at the method to be adopted

The pipe will be created by Slip-Form method as is done for RCC chimneys in Thermal Power plants. The pipe will keep on sinking by floating and sinking with increase in weight at top as per calculations of Archimedes Principle- till the mouth of pipe reaches the leaking point. Once mouth is placed in position. Cement concrete mix will be filled on the Sea bed through multiple funnels provided at the bottom to permanently seal the leak. For more details I can be contacted on mob Phone 09350248154.(India)

Oops…did you mean Atlantic? The Pacific is (relatively) nice and clean these days… it’s being over-fished and the Japanese are gobbling up all the whales… oh wait…forgot about the Texas sized patch of plastic crap. We’re screwed.

Mr. Explosives expert realizes that the nuke is not placed anywhere near as deep as the actual oil deposit right? The russians made this work 5 times already….and didn’t IGNITE any oil deposits. (GIANT FREAKING EYEROLL)

Yes, they are fucked in the head and will continue to blame the victim The same way they have blamed regular folks trying to better their lives for playing a black market, Russian Roulette, extortion game with mortgages on wall street.
They sold those people these mortgage instruments, knowing damn well they were going to blow-up the market for insurance money.
They shared the fucking rip-off money on the front, middle and back-end and now preparing to buy all of them back again for the next wave of human destruction. Same fucking groups and people. Call it international financial sabotage, euro scheme; once again America will be left holding the bag, while rest of the world cashes in.
The Brits have been playing this “FOX AND RAVEN” game with those US mountain goats for years and they fall for it every time like in the old colonies. Fucking idiots.
For those of you thinking that marching your military carcasses to conquer half of the world resources as an option, just the mere insinuation of such stupidity have already rendered your asses useless as a world power and untrustworthy and should be stripped of this fucking self prophesized entitlement.

wow, lmao. Sure it was the 11 people who died. they caused it, lol. thats more crazy than the version ive heard, At least my version has some fact to it whether its right or wrong. But its definitetely possible. Just before the Horizon incident, North Korea torpedoed a S. Korean ship. All media reported that as an accident as well, until later when they finally disclosed that north korea was responsible. The deepwater horizon was built by huyandi, not sure if thats correct spelling, but its a south korean corp.the possibility that n korea hit the horizon is very possible. Either way though, accident or attack, this is going to affect millions if not all of us in the USA. If they dont stop this oil soon, then dont u think that when the coastal areas get rain, its going to move it inland in the soil as well. It will ruin soil and possibly drinking water up to 300 miles inland throughout the Gulf area, and then it will go out and around the florida panhandle and up the east coast.

That’s too funny. Let’s blame everyone except the real culprits of greed. THE POLITICIANS WHO ALLOWED IT TO HAPPEN. Politicians are never to balme yet they make the LAWS.

I AM A RETIRED EXPLOSIVES ORDNANCE TECHNICIAN AND ENGINEER. GET THIS THROUGH YOUR HEADS. A NUCLEAR EXPLOSION ON TOP OF A PETROLEUM DEPOSIT IS THE STUPIDEST IDEA ANYONE IN THIS WORLD HAS EVER HAD. THIS WILL CAUSE A SYMPATHETIC DETONATION OF THE OIL AND GAS DEPOSIT. WE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT SIZE THIS DEPOSIT IS, BUT IT IS OBVIOUSLY UNDER PRESSURE. A NUCLEAR DETONATION WAVE WOULD TRAVEL THROUGH THE WELL HEAD, SURE AS A FUSE WILL BURN, THIS WILL CAUSE A DIRECT IMPACT ON THE DEPOSIT. STOP ANY FOOLISH THINKING BY OIL EXECUTIVES AND STUPID PEOPLE WHO PREDICT OIL PRICES, THIS IS EXPLOSIVES NOT MARKETS.

Is this the sign of Dooms Day?

Where did my post go, someone better reconsider their censorship.

that is INSANE, A NUCLEAR WEAPON WILL LEAVE A CRATER A MILE WIDE AND WILL SEND A DETONATION WAVE DIRECTLY INTO THE OIL DEPOSIT, RAY, THIS IS CLEARLY ABOUT AS SMART AS RUSSIAN ROULETTE.

your country has overthrown more democracies than any regime since 1945 – propping up countless far right dictatorships the world over and murdering countless innocent people so get off your high horse!

Mr. Finnegan is definitely correct about the issues regarding BP. BP should, and hopefully will, do their part to repair the damage to the environment and to all of the people whose livelihoods are affected by this tragedy. Mr. Finnegan, however, should be able to make his argument without disparaging the citizens of the country he bravely protects.

As for ‘reaching’, that is exactly the problem with using offensive language — you never really know how your words might be interpreted and who might be offended.

Back to the subject-NUKES are not going to hold back Mother Earth's power. And BTW BRILLIANT- to place a nuke in the seam of a tectonic plate. Hard to get smarter than that! We can all be buried by Her in an instant. even if people didnt have the power to create earthquakes. But HAARP and all the other countries playing games with our weather and earthquakes are going to continue the latest human / human war with Mama Earth as a weapon even if we somehow got this oil stopped. Guns and trees wont save anyone for long- 2012 approaches-as with the atlantis annialation, mankind initiates it. Enjoy every one of your last days- What the richrats dont understand is that we ALL go down on the same sinking ship-even if we stop the oil- it is begun.

Yes, my good co-commentor Mr. Finnegan, it is all over. But like the epic film “50 First Dates”…no…wait…. I mean “Groundhog Day”, it starts fresh each morning.

Welcome to the next day of As the Oil Hemorrage Bleeds.

This isn’t a debate about military or government activity.

All of the readers in this post, except for ‘an0id’, agree that BP should be held accountable for the ongoing disaster in the Gulf.

The extreme level of anger about this situation, however, doesn’t excuse careless language.

Sounds like the right idea to me. In fact NOW would be the perfect time to implement sweeping change in how corporations and their reps i.e. our government will be held accountable to American citizens and the world in general.
I personally would opt for the death penalty for BP execs and government officials found to be in collusion in helping to create the worlds most disastrous Ecological destruction of all time.
That would send a clear message to all those who opt for large profits with taking huge unnecessary, risk can and will suffer the ultimate price if even one human dies as a result of their actions.

this is a purposeful sabotage by some group or other. this event was forshadowed by the illuminati in the film “knowing” last year. it will help to get the new world order global govt in power via the killing of most of the western worlds oceans, therebuy getting rid of huge food reserves and helping with population reduction that they so desperatley desire.

Indeed the Russians used this five times before, that was even mentioned in this report. Is repeating the obvious your idea of clever? Being an explosives expert, means I have a few clues about how the sorts of forces involved behave and what sort of parameters need to be taken into account. Evidently none of this is apparent to you, or you wouldn’t be suggesting the Russian experiences are terribly relevant. The Russians did it on the surface and shallow. Here we are talking about doing this thing under a mile or more of water and mud. The Russians did this in the case of gas deposits as well, you only show your lack of clues by referring to them not igniting any oil deposits. It is worth noting for your sake I think, that there is more gas in this than oil as it happens. This is not my point however, my concern with ignition is only the momentary flash which could add to the force from a nuclear explosion and I shall shortly explain why this may be an issue here even though it wasn’t for the Russians.Despite leapfrogging over the issue by making a bombastic statment implying you know, we do not know where they intend to place a nuke in such a scenario, in fact I doubt they’d know yet for sure either. Oil (and Gas) deposits do not usually sit anywhere near the well head, this is more of that obviousness you like I see. However if you had read my post a bit more carefully, or were a little better equipped to understand it maybe, then you’d see that it is the danger of shifting the tectonic plates, directly or indirectly if there was a negative reaction to this hypothetical nuke which I am concerned with. A big bang doesn’t concern me, I like them.My caution arises, fully aware and probably better informed about the Russian efforts than you; due to the extreme depth and the consequent back force provided by the mile or more of water above it. Indeed nothing will be seen on the surface, the entire shock wave will be directed downward. Perhaps even to the extent of wasting the forces which have succeeded in pinching off the wells in the Russian case. This sort of force being applied to the ocean floor, even without what may be one of the world’s largest oil and gas deposits and essentially a big open cavern in the bowels of the planet, has not to my knowledge been tested before….except there is some rumours that the Asian Tsunami of 2005 was artificially created, precisely this way! Whether or not it is, the theory of creating earthquakes and tsunamis by this method is not in doubt.My voice is one of caution. I am not as qualified as the people doing this thing will hopefully be. I do not have all the information they have. However we have already seen what a complete farce the experts have already made of this, so this does not give me cause for peace of mind. History is replete with scientific fuckups, due to arrogance and often just simple human carelessness. This isn’t some rainforest here or a waterway or even an ocean. We are fucking around with forces far beyond our technology and understanding and they are attached to the very heart of the planet. Its one thing bozos like you have no clue about the dangers of what is going on, but it’s a horrible thought that the ones in charge of this may be just as cavalier about it all. In the end it will take a debate about the issues between people with the background and you had better hope there are some voices being a bit more cautious and thoughtful of the consequences than what we have so far seen.

Actually on a sliding scale, between the USA, Russia and China, I would put the Russians at number two, after China as the major nations who can be trusted. They are far from ideal, but a hell of a lot more trustworthy and responsible these days than the USA.Being ambivalent about our much vaunted Westen world and not more attached to any nation or cause than I am the truth, I have a more nuanced view of those countries our leaders and media try to demonise all the time and I am not blind to the atrocities committed by our side. For example I do not see a suicide bomber as inherantly more evil than the pilot who drops a huge bomb on a civilian city then is home safely for lunch, on the contrary.I realise Chavez is a popular and far sighted leader of an admirable democracy and that Hamas didn’t “seize power” they were elected fairly and Fatah tried to seize power.Truth is not on the menu in what passes for media in the West these days.I don’t see the Bolshevik revolution as a great atrocity by Russians against Russians but of Jews against Russians. I also realise that it was Germany who was the victim of WWII, not the instigator. These sort of understandings don’t come cheap, they require a conscious effort to research outside of the standard histories which are fed to us by the victors. They also require a thick skin because the liars and those who believe them, get nasty and vicious when their chrerished lies are challenged.We are no longer the good guys. we have become the warmongers, the bullies, the fascist states and the earth destroying gargantuans. The mass murderers, the torturers and the liars. The enemy is now us.If they plan to nuke this thing, I sincerely hope they bring the Russians onboard. I have far more faith in the technical expertise in these matters than these BP and US government clowns. The most expert and competent people have been purged from US government circles since the Bush gang was in power and nothing has changed under the pre-emptive Nobel Prize winner.

excuse me???

all they have to do is drill some holes, put the nukes down there, no crater, just earth moved enough to close the hole.

get a fucking grip.

you really think that one to three five kiloton plowshare devices will be the end of the world???

also, to produce a crater a mile wide requires about 10 to 15 megatons of yield, and even then, at the surface.

let's see, a weapon adequate to do this job is 3000 times smaller than a weapon that will produce a mile wide crater.

where do you get your test data from, dumbFUX news channel?

oh, and as for your russian roulette quip…

the russians did this five times to shut down unstoppable oil wells…SUCCESSFULLY!

OF COURSE, YOU'D RATHER LET BP KEEP TRYING THEIR HAREBRAINED SCHEMES TO STOP THE WELL…

YOU GOING TO DONATE YOUR OLD TENNIS SHOES FOR THE UPCOMING TENNIS SHOE SHOT?

worked well enough for el paso natural gas. they used three medium sized nukes for their wells.

i doubt your credentials.

Seems a little penny-wise and pound-foolish to take something that's already poisoned and make it permanently so.

Hello……I guess the poundwise errr dollar signs is what these CRIMINALS have/had in mind !

Maybe they should have used the executives themselves for the junk shot instead of their golf balls since they're fat cats enough ….shouldn't take to many to fill the pipe, if not then there is always the reject goobers in the gooberment to fill in the holes…..It's not like they're of any use anyways.

Time for a change in government…we need a recall bill when these POSs screw up instead of having to wait 2/4 years to toss their asses out of office for their criminal actions errr non-actions.

Since the Rothschilds own BP,absolutely nothing will be done to the ownership of BP,in fact,notice that the US congress is now about to pass a 400% increase in gas taxes per gallon in order to pay for this!
BOYCOTT ALL BP PRODUCTS!

Google “Quadri-Track ZCT”

This whole thing needs to be intensively investigated by various authorities and those responsible held accountable. Examples should be made of them! It's a bit draconian, but this is worse than Valdez which is just crazy. Jean-Paul Gagnon argued that accountability is necessary to keep trust in the political system (see http://eprints.qut.edu.au/31141/1/c31141.pdf) so let's keep BP and the bureaucrats that were dealing with them accountable! Long prison terms and huge financial penalties with funds going directly to the people and environment affected sounds good to me!

HI !
I made a video to wake up peoples on what is really going on on the Gulf please healp me to share it around the world ! This shit have to STOP !!!

Thanx for your support

they have campgrounds and picnic benches yards away from former plowshare holes… what the fuck are you talking about?

I would like to make it very clear in case nobody else has done so, that the Russians have never used a nuclear WEAPON to seal an oil well. They have used CIVIL NUCLEAR DEVICES of roughly 150 kilotons placed underneath the seabed to seal leaking wells five or six times with only one failure to seal. These are governed by separate treaties and their usefulness is intentionally downplayed in the USA. Because the blasts are contained underground there is no radioactive fallout released into the environment, fallout is a project of thermal convection sucking up and burning/irradiating particulate matter – this process can only occur in an atmospheric nuclear explosion.

The government of the United States has a vested interest in making nuclear technology unpopular so that domain can remain completely dominated by the US military industrial complex. The reality is that a low yield civil nuclear device is needed to seal this well, they have known it all along and just don't want to concede that we must emulate the Russians. They would rather poison the entire Gulf and much of the Caribbean. Personally I wonder if this oil rig was allowed to blow on purpose, I believe that the green agenda in the USA is a wolf in sheep's clothing deployed by Capital and this is just the event needed to keep the faltering 'green' pseudo-mass movement relevant. God help us.

[...] Nuke option to seal oil leak I read about this on conspiracy sites weeks ago, saying it was going to come to this (nuke option). __________________ Death is The Hunter – Vae Victis Quote: [...]

Actually ~ we the customers will be paying out the nose for this for a long time….

Good point!! What can we complain about? Obama seizes our own corporations and even fires CEO’s at will. If he can and does control civilian business here, why not in other countries? That should really make other countries like us,eh? What a world we live in!

Since when did our government want to do someting intelligent? Why would they want to start doing wise things now? No way! Our puppet President will just do what he is told!! He is just an orator, not the thinker…

I am an American. I agree with every word you said~ because you are on the money! I just wish my fellow countrymen could see the truth, after all it is blindingly bright!! We Americans are in a pickle right now. As long as we think the government can fix things everything will be alright, we will be sinking. WAKE UP AMERICANS!!!

BP is dragging it's feet and doesn't want to take the most effective and quickest solution to plugging the leak. They do not want to blow the drill hole shut because they spent allot of time and cash on the drill hole and they are hoping they can eventually cap it in a traditional way that would permit future use of the drill hole. Their solution is to drill another hole that hopefully will release pressure from the leaking drill pipe so they can cap it with concrete plugs and a new well head device.

I can't believe they are getting away with this. They have us all by the balls.

Sounds like this would contaminate water and sea life for decades to come…see Rocky Flats

Nuke the damn well!

Nuke the damn well!

dumb azz

use a small atomic bomb to seal it shut. now.

use a small atomic bomb to seal the leak.

Nuke the well? Are we forgetting our prehistory? The Gulf of Mexico was the result of and asteroid impact 65 million years ago with the focal point near Qixalube, Mexico. The resulting impact roasted and buried enormous amounts of plant and animal matter. It also created a DOME of OIL that's covered now by water (GULF). There are several leaks of oil beyond Horizon One that are just as heavy a flow as the drill site itself.
If you set off a nuke you may just cause more fractures and cause the dome to implode, resulting in 100's of billions of barrels of crude to be suddenly released which could permanently destroy not just the GULF but vast majorities of other surrounding oceans. Not to mention vast tidal waves being generated! Will you pay 50$ pound for shrimp covered in 60 weight oil? I don't think so……..

A sure way to stop the Gulf oil leak is to shove a nuclear artillery shell a few thousand feet down the well shaft or a parallel shaft and detonate it. The detonation would form a solid cavity below the ocean floor and collapse the well above and below it. The shock wave would be minimal and there would be no radiation leak into the Gulf. Despe…rate times require desperate measures. It is a potential solution which should be seriously investigated NOW.

I am an American as well and I agree with you! American’s are running around blind!!

Microbes can clean it all up in 6 weeks..while at the same time providing a safe and healthy food source for the wildlife in the gulf. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VfypUzx1tI

Using a nuclear device in the Gulf is totally insane and could devastating unforeseen consequences. If this option is used , I plan o leave the US permanently . I will not be part of a country that uses nuclear devices near its own civilian population. this would be no less than a declaration of war by the US government on its own civilian population.

How to stop the Gulf oil gusher: Nuke it!

Beleaguered multinational oil giant, British Petroleum, has tried one fix after another to choke off the oil gusher one mile beneath the Gulf of Mexico. Top hat, top kill, and five other solutions have all failed.

Now some experts are citing a successful fix that the Soviet Union used to kill runaway wells. According to Russian reports, during the Soviet era engineering experts relied on thermonuclear devices to cap wells that had become oil catastrophes. Presumably, five different incidents were dealt with by detonating low-yield nuclear bombs.

Geologists explain, reports Komsomoloskaya Pravda, that the explosion fuses rock strata and instantaneously seals the bore hole.

http://www.helium.com/items/1850155-how-to-stop…

you’re an idiot.

get your facts straight…

five to fifteen kilotons a kilometer under the seabed, under a mile of water, won't even vent.

i think you are a lunatic to go around spouting bullshit, when you don't even know the facts, or the history.

well, we can let bp keep the oil flowing for the years to come… seen the latest headlines?

educate yourself on the civil engineering uses for nuclear weapons.

I don't even think a Nuclear blast would be required to seal off the leak as long as the geology of the sea bed that surrounds the drill pipe is hard rock. A properly positioned deeply planted conventional explosive would be able to crush the drill pipe and stop or severely restrict the flow of the leak. I think the reason to use a nuclear blast would be because of the high heat it gives off which would melt and harden the rock that surrounds the blast. Apparently much of the sea bed in the gulf is composed of soft sedimentary minerals, often salt deposits and if that's the case with the area around the drill pipe any explosive blast could lead to creating fissures that could allow the gas and oil to force it's way to the surface. BP hasn't divulged enough info about the geology around the drill pipe except that some of it must be soft because when the pipe was under pressure during the top kill gas started to plume out of the sea bed around the drill pipe. That's why they dropped the idea of trying to plug the outflow at the top of the pipe.

Oh, for goodness sakes, get off your politically correct high horse. You sound like Dolores Umbridge!

Yes BP are not doing great in the oil spill, yes they should be held accountable, but PLEASE refrain from your stupid P.C. jargon! No one was offended! Get over it!

if nukeing its the only way to stop it, which seems to be the case, let's nuke the thing.

…
how ignorant of you…

and what the hell are you doing laying in your bed in the middle of the night?

I've become very scared about the direction America has gone in the last few years (FEMA camps anyone?) Honestly, sometimes I think living in socialism Europe country wouldn't be bad at all compared to this.
America is an example of the high costs of low prices. And all the cheap prices we get come at someone elses expense or else contribute to our already trillion dollar debt.

I want my passport to Uruguay now.

Your never going to hear who was responsible… Just to be clear on a few things; If your car leaks oil its your fault. Because BP is an corporation, it benefits from be unable to be properly charged for their crimes. Like indigo said, for an individual, his charges for them would all be legitimate. Jailed= shut down, assets seized= reparations to victims; the problem is really how do you properly deal with a crime of this nature. But calling people idiots and ranting about punishments that will never come about are pointless and ignorant.

What does an investment banker know about underwater nuclear explosions? This article is trash Mr. Tencer.

I think the BP executives need some justice administered like the Chinese Death of a Thousand Cuts, or the Rack, or being slowly dipped in a vat of sulfuric acid. I think all the accumulated wealth of them and their extended families has to be seized immediately before they hide it in various accounts. I think all their relatives including cousins and their various business cronies all have to be sent to back breaking labor camps until they reveal the location of every assett belonging to every BP officer. I think the culture of cheapness at the disregard of the environment and the disregard of worker safety has to be paid for with something so horrible that any oil or mining executive, or any administration person working with them, will never in a million years contemplate taking any thieving short cuts again.

Why is BP getting all the blame?they where not the ones doing the drilling,the drilling was being done by an American firm whose owners have links to the lobbyists who got bush jr
to change the law so you could drill in places like the golf. the US government had ok`ed
them and there equipment as being up to the job off drilling in the first place!

actually the ships dont need oil..they are nuclear powered.

haha oil cant burn underwater no oxygen.

Is the well in American waters? They only extend out so far. Were the Russian explosions in a land locked area like the gulf? What happened to the people and fish and other life in the area? If the second leak is worse, shouldn't it be the focus now? If someone not American buys land here they only own what they put on it and it can be “repossessed” to the US if deemed it needs to happen. Unless it's another law that has been changed since Obama took office. If indeed, it's on American water, sufficient time has been given. The Alaskan Pipline, just take it back…I am terrified of the impact this will have on all our lives.

How can they tie clean energy, which I presume to mean non carbon fuel based, with oil production? Isn't it getting a little ridiculous how intentionally backward politico speech is. And I always thought natural gas was in a different carbon emission then oil. It's so disrespectful to p in my face and call it rain. We hire oil people to lead us in our effort to get off oil dependency. Next we hire crack dealers to run the DEA, oops to late.How about Homeland security run by people outside the US, oops to late. Luciferians to run the church, damn still to late. I guess it's just another day.There is an old film showing this as part of the grand pentagram of disasters designed by the illuminati. the technology to fix this is 50 years old but they need to keep it going to make it into a grand disaster. Y? Food shortages, inflation and of course some new move to consolidate power, since all plans are at least 5 moves in advance. The pentegram is complete when the next big disaster hits below the state of minnesota. sorry for combining this with the president appointing an oil executive to handle billions of dollars for his clean energy act.

at least they will do it, cause there is no other option in sight. and than they will ask .why we did it not immediatly?` hope the responsable politicans will awake soon!

Your comment is the coldest thing I’ve heard said in a long time. Blue collar workers who’s lives were lost through no fault of their own shouldn’t be spoken of like that. I’m sure their wives and children don’t appreciate it and nor do I.

Here is just one more reason for concentrating our efforts and resources on space exploration. It's becoming painfully obvious to people with common sense, the only time we have ever enjoyed real freedom in the past, is when we had a new frontier available to us. People could escape the pressures of tyranny, oppression, and arrogant fools such as we are witnessing today.
Tell the government to “get~r~done”….lead us into a our new frontirer. We need space exploration NOW… before it's too late and we all die from corporate and governmental arrogance and control-freak stupitidy!

I'm stunned that the idea of using nukes to stop the well isn't being given more serious consideration in light of the environmental and economic damage the oil spill is causing. WHY NOT??? What are the risks besides those to BP stockholders wallets??

[...] Well, unfortunately this scenario has been embraced — by the Soviet Union. And now, by the guys bankrolling the energy business. According to Bloomberg, as quoted on The Raw Story, [...]

I believe that the Federal Government should detonate a nuclear device in a well 6000 ft or deeper below the ocean floor adjacent to and close to (10 ft away from) the leaking BP well as soon as possible.

This action would immediately stop the flow of oil and protect the Louisiana estuaries from further damage beyond that that will be done by the crude oil released already.

The Nevada tests at roughly 5000 below the surface did not blow holes in the ground. They fused and compacted the earthen elements around the blast location and the earth above calapsed to fill in the void.

A nuclear device contamination from an under the location 5000 ft below the seabed would be contained greatly and/or entirely, and the resulting radiation would be attenuated greatly through the 5000 feet of seabed and the 5000 feet of water. The Oil is 10000 ft below the seabed.

The contaminated materials from a nuclear explosion 5000 feet below the ocean floor would be contained at that location like an underground test of a nuclear device was contained in the 1950′s & 1960′s after atmospheric nuclear testing above ground was abandoned sometime in the middle of the last century.

The Gulf of Mexico crude oil leak is mostly the fault of the US Congress that passed the 66 page “Oil Pollution Act of 1990″ legislation (http://epw.senate.gov/opa90.pdf) that obligates US government to pay for all damages over and above $75 Million.

Most of the oil company paid lobbyists probably spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on wine, food, women, song, jobs for the congressmen’s unemployable children, and vacations to entice (bribe) our congressmen to pass this “Oil Pollution Act of 1990″ legislation” that limited the oil exploration companies liability to $75M.

This legislation allows/causes and encourages BP (and the other oil exploration companies) to take more risks when drilling, since only $75 Million of their assets can be lost in the event that they cause some multi-billion dollar disaster like this one. The cost of preventing an oil spill is not a consideration since the total assets of the company are not at risk.

The “Oil Pollution Act of 1990″ places the oil exploration company’s maximum liability cost of these disaster’s damages to businesses, eco-systems, wildlife, and similar systems located on shore in Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Florida, etc. to a maximum of $75 million, and protects the remaining company assets from the costs of any of these disaster damages exceeding a $75 million total liability to the company.

Lots of pollution from poor environmental policies in the old
Soviet Union. Atomic bombs under water are not tested and if the whole untested scheme fails—who pays and how do you unring the the bell? Before anything like that is tried have solid, 100% proof that it will not do more harm than good.
Avoid having big business shit where you live. Amend the U.S. Constitution with these 8 words:
Money is not speech.
Corporations are not persons.

I must concur that it is time for The Federal Government to take control of the Gulf Oil crisis. The perception of a so called relief well, to bring oil to the surface by BP is an obvious attempt to gain a profit in the midst of the worst ecological disaster ever, is unacceptable. I would favor a Presidential Executive Order assumming control of the situation. BP would be given a set time line to cap the well, otherwise the U.S. takes immediate control, with directions to the U.S. Navy to do whatever has to be done to cap the well. If the use of a nuclear device is the only recourse, then so be it.

Exactamundo, my friend! We didn't know what we were doing then-letting BP (possibly) crack and fracture the seabed underneath** the Deep water Horizon; now we're gonna nuke it?
Right. :( :( :(
But it's so surreal for me like I knew they were gonna do something even stupider to try and correct this flook-up. :(

I heard a month ago somewhere that they thought there was another leak away from the broken well. I heard it was a crack in the earth's crust. That really sucks. How do they fix something like that.
