US Orders Blackout Over North Korean Torpedoing Of Gulf Of Mexico Oil
Rig

By: Sorcha Faal, and as reported to her Western Subscribers

A grim report circulating in the Kremlin today written by Russia's
Northern Fleet is reporting that the United States has ordered a
complete media blackout over North Korea's torpedoing of the giant
Deepwater Horizon oil platform owned by the World's largest offshore
drilling contractor Transocean that was built and financed by South
Korea's Hyundai Heavy Industries Co. Ltd., that has caused great loss of
life, untold billions in economic damage to the South Korean economy,
and an environmental catastrophe to the United States.

Most important to understand about this latest attack by North Korea
against its South Korean enemy is that under the existing "laws of war"
it was a permissible action as they remain in a state of war against
each other due to South Korea's refusal to sign the 1953 Armistice
ending the Korean War.

To the attack itself, these reports continue, the North Korean "cargo
vessel" Dai Hong Dan believed to be staffed by 17th Sniper Corps
"suicide" troops left Cuba's Empresa Terminales Mambisas de La Habana
(Port of Havana) on April 18th whereupon it "severely deviated" from its
intended course for Venezuela's Puerto Cabello bringing it to within 209
kilometers (130 miles) of the Deepwater Horizon oil platform which was
located 80 kilometers (50 miles) off the coast of the US State of
Louisiana where it launched an SSC Sang-o Class Mini Submarine (Yugo
class) estimated to have an operational range of 321 kilometers (200
miles).

5. believed to be staffed by 17th Sniper Corps "suicide" troops left Cuba
Boy that's got it all doesn't it? "Believed to be", 17th Sniper Corps?, "suicide" troops? Cuba? What the heck is the 17th Sniper Corp? I'm sure that this will be easily debunked but you know that it's all over the RW internets.

6. That's out there
Seriously, when the Paulites (Paulmeisters? Paulmetto Bugs? Whatever) think a theory is out of left field you have entered Twilight Zone territory.

7. Blaming Iran would have been better from a conspiracy theory perspective
Because then the teabaggers would see Cheney and Bolton "speculate" on faux news and you know how much that gets them off.

8. That's completely fabricated and preposterous.
Does not the author of that rumor even realize the US heavily monitors shipping traffic (even yachts) throughout the Carribean and Gulf of Mexico? Any ship heading from Cuba into the Gulf will be stopped and searched... especially if they stop long enough to launch a mini sub. This simply is not plausible. Even a small yacht or fishing vessel leaving Cuba will be stopped before they can get to Key West.

BTW - I have already heard this rumor...

10. Do a search on the "author."
"Sorcha Faal" isn't what "she" seems.

12. North Korea, I don't think so.
But I do wonder if there have been any strange movements of BP stock just prior to this, and if so,then follow the money.
