the liberal favorite steve chu stumbles through a soft spoken rachel maddow interview on may 28th. two days before that he was 'outed' by mother jones for his ties to bp, including his work for the 100% bp funded $500 million u.c. berkeley energy-bio sciences lab, a snippet:
the republicans are wild fanatics, but the democrats in the us are the most power hungry, political opportunists still kicking. barely. every single corner of the obama team should be called out as reckless and criminal.
now it's the administration's 'unbreakable' linkage to israel? linkage to breaches of isreali, us and international law? no? everytime i hear anyone speak from this administration, i'm ready to be smeared in shit and lies. everytime. is the us ready to support isreal in a simultaneous war against lebanon, syria, and iran? maybe they'll sneak it in after the november elections, in the lame duck session. loads of distractions brought by a holiday season then. sleep western liberals, sleep.
"The fact that Steven Chu selected Steve Koonin, BP's chief scientist, to be his undersecretary would predispose them to think that they could maybe negotiate with BP, could be more like partners regarding the oil cleanup," Jennifer Washburn, the author of a forthcoming Center for American Progress report called, "Big Oil Goes to College," told the New York Times. While the DOE doesn't have jurisdiction over the spill, 150 people at its national laboratories have been working on it, and some consumer watchdogs have accused the department of reacting too slowly. Chu has also been an optimist regarding the clean-up and containment efforts, telling reporters two weeks ago that "things are looking up."he uses gamma ray scans (like a 'modern day marvel super hero' cries the atlantic's joshua green) to find out what's really going on on the ocean floor. the answer: no one knows. now journalists and scientists are not allowed within 75 feet of the spill area without the approval of...'beyond petroleum', thank-you-very-much. anyone heard from steven chu lately? heard about the estimated 40,000 decaying, deserted and leaking oil platforms in the gulf? heard about the west's 'cheap' petroleum playground for the american giants shell and chevron in the niger delta; which has spilled more than the exxol valdez spill every single year for 50 years? sleep western liberals, sleep.

movement for the emancipation of the niger delta. MEND. counter-capitalist infrastructural bombardment with automatic weapons, swamp-boats, explosives, and high-ransomed kidnapping of officials and researchers to fund their cause.
ReplyDeletesure people end up dead, internal tumult. These are a pissed-off bunch of people rightfully entitled to get something beyond ostensibly offset and neutralized environmental degradation from it. Royal dutch Shell. Not to mention the fact that it's oil beneath land that's barely in same hemisphere, and is squarely extracontinental.
peter you need to put up some polls. it's a well known fact people love a good polling.
