BP oil drilling explosions

dimanche 20 avril 2014 à 14:00

The US and UK overthrew the elected government of Azerbaijan in 1993 and installed a dictator, in order to help BP get a good deal over exporting oil from Azerbaijan.

This enabled BP to drill oil wells in the Caspian sea, and one of them exploded.

BP's men lied to Congress, saying said their operations were safe and had had no serious problems. So BP was allowed to drill in the Gulf of Mexico and promptly had another explosion.

An honest government, not corrupted by oil companies. would never trust BP in any way ever again.
