"Here are some pics of the burning oil rig. Note the helideck with a large size hole in it which would appear to be burned. I did a search on "can aluminum helidecks burn" and found that they do NOT burn......many tests have been done. Plus the decks are equipped with valves all around the deck to spray either water or foam should a fire occur on the deck which would automatically spray. I will pass on some of the links I found in next post.
Some are suggesting it was hit with a lazer beam or other weapon. Considering what I found, I tend to believe this.............so what are they hiding?"

Vatic Note: I wonder if that is why Halliburton moved their entire corporate headquarters to Dubai??? They are no longer hdqtred here in the states. The other point I wish to make while considering this below, is that there was a huge hole on the platform of the oil rig which cannot be explained away with just the fire. It had to have had either a missle or explosion that drove some massive huge piece of something through it, that created that hole. Check this out. No fire around the platform, so what made that hole??? Its huge! Its also "white" and not blackened like a missle or some other ordinance type projectile would look. Its shape and size suggests something else and we will get back to you when we have finished investigating this further. Just some facts recently to be kept in mind when thinking about this.
1. Obama was going to sign an EO banning commercial fishing in coastal waters here.
2. The military "the day before the "accident" on the rig sent up a new kind of ship with top secret military experiments scheduled in advanced space weaponry, possibly Lasers. The day before now......
3. Halliburton coincidentally on this project just finishing up "something" it was doing hours before the "accident".
There's more, but read this in the meantime and keep the other factors in mind as you do. THIS IS ALL VERY VERY FLUID RIGHT NOW.
Gulf oil spill: The Halliburton connection

Investigators delving into the possible cause of the massive gulf oil spill are focusing on the role of Houston-based Halliburton Co., the giant energy services company, which was responsible for cementing the drill into place below the water. The company acknowledged Friday that it had completed the final cementing of the oil well and pipe just 20 hours before the blowout last week.
In a letter to to Halliburton Chief Executive David J. Lesar on Friday, Rep. Henry A. Waxman (D-Beverly Hills) chairman of the House Committee on Energy and Commerce, and Rep. Bart Stupak (D-Mich.), chairman of the Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations, called on Halliburton officials to provide all documents relating to "the possibility or risk of an explosion or blowout at the Deepwater Horizon rig and the status, adequacy, quality, monitoring, and inspection of the cementing work" by May 7.
In a statement Friday, Halliburton said "it is premature and irresponsible to speculate on any specific causal issues." The company had four employees stationed on the rig at the time of the accident, all of whom were rescued by the Coast Guard. "Halliburton had completed the cementing of the final production casing string in accordance with the well design," it said. "The cement slurry design was consistent with that utilized in other similar applications. In accordance with accepted industry practice ... tests demonstrating the integrity of the production casing string were completed."
More than two dozen class action lawsuits have been filed after the explosion against BP PLC, the British company that leased the Deepwater Horizon rig, against the rig's owner, Transocean Ltd. and against Halliburton. BP is "taking full responsibility" for the spill and will pay for legitimate claims by affected parties, company spokeswoman Sheila Williams said.
Cement is used at two stages of the deep-water drilling process. It is used to fill gaps between the well pipe and the hole drilled into the seabed so as to prevent any seepage of oil and gas. And it is used to temporarily plug an exploration hole before production begins. At the time of the accident, the Halliburton statement said, "well operations had not yet reached the point requiring the placement of the final cement plug which would enable the planned temporary abandonment of the well."
Experts say cementing is a basic part of drilling, exploration and production of oil on the sea floor. Drill ships or rigs plant large pipes called "conductors" on the sea floor, and casings, or nested pipes, are placed inside of them. The pipes are fixed in place by cement, some hanging inside other pipes, and a drill string is run down a casing, and extended to the sea floor to bore holes.
Mud works its way back up the pipes and the “riser,” a pipe that connects the drill site to the ship or rig above. Or oil is brought up. Cement fixes the operations in place. Cement may also be used to plug a well, pumped down the string until it comes up on the sides, and stops the hole.
Cementing a deep-water drilling operation is a process fraught with danger. A 2007 study by the U.S. Minerals Management Service found that cementing was the single most important factor in 18 of 39 well blowouts in the Gulf of Mexico over a 14-year period -- more than equipment malfunction. Halliburton has been accused of a poor cement job in the case of a major blowout in the Timor Sea off Australia last August. An investigation is underway.
According to experts cited in Friday's Wall St. Journal, the timing of last week's cement job in relation to the explosion -- only 20 hours beforehand, and the history of cement problems in other blowouts "point to it as a possible culprit." Robert MacKenzie, managing director of energy and natural resources at FBR Capital Markets and a former cementing engineer, told the Journal, "The initial likely cause of gas coming to the surface had something to do with the cement."
In its statement, the company said, "Halliburton originated oilfield cementing and leads the world in effective, efficient delivery of zonal isolation and engineering for the life of the well, conducting thousands of successful well cementing jobs each year."
The company, which was once headed by former Vice President Dick Cheney, has been in the media spotlight before -- under under fire in recent years for its operations as a private contractor in Iraq.

Prior comments? Where have they gone?
Good question. Are you sure they were on here? Could be, without sounding paranoid, they may have removed them because we made good points. I will go look at the other ones and see.
Do you remember basically what the comments said??? It would help me in looking. Thanks
Obambam sends SWAT Teams to the Gulf? What for? Were they Blackwater mercs?
They were homeland security which means they could be blackwater. But the sent them because BP is afraid of us. They know that eventually we would find out what they had done intentionally and take action against their assets and they were right, but not the derricks since that is too easy and not near as expensive enough as what they have done and what it will cost us.
We are finally going to find out what other third world countries have gone through that we had no idea about. The satanic bankers have done this in almost all the third world countries and they know we have the amount of guns and ammo to fully dressout the militaries of both China and India. Pretty impressive. So this is how they have decided to deal with us. Murder our gulf.
They have their underground bunkers and seed banks, so they will be going down soon, so if we are going to get them, we need to do it now.
Perhaps the same group of perps as 9-11.Satans final days are upon humanity.His minions are enjoying their satanic deeds against humanity.Unfortunately there will probably be more heinous acts perpetrated upon us before the curtain closes on satan.
Why doesn't some American Patriot military expert go put the psychos who heads up this whole mess of psycho skank kikes out of their misery? Am I the only one sick of the gutless wonders who call themselves men and do NOTHING but sit around and wait to be slaughtered...along with their families?
I believe they are already doing so, but of course the press won't tell us. There have been 18 murdered bankers in the past 18 months and they were high level execs. Further, gas lines, oil assets and other assets have been attacked.
We won't hear about them because the powers that be who control the MSM will not want to encourage others to go do the same thing locally targeting specifically only those doing this to us very narrowly. International fascist nazi's and their assets. Khazar rothschild minion and banker corporations. Monsanto has been hit numerous time to the point where their stock has dropped and Bill gates had to go in and buy them up to save them.
Lots going on, that no one talks about but I track these things and don't talk about it, but I did do a blog on it asking the question, Is there a resistance going on as we speak? Its just not reaching as high as it needs to. The top would be good.
