This is a new trading development that simplifies everything. You look at the BP subsea cameras and sonar. If you don't see any leaks BUY, if you see oil leaks, SELL. It's possible we may see several crash ups and downs. How hard is that? -g-

Just looking at the UK news, the Lockerbie bomber is in the UK news again. So a British company is polluting the GOM and letting convicted terrorists go free to get Libian Oil contracts. I can see that going down well with the USA public. (not).

I don't know if anyone is interested but this is how many here see the Lockerbie incident. From The London Review of Books..

Written in Sept 2009, not many were interested in the oil angle back then.

It is, of course, now all about oil

lrb.co.uk

And then there is the research from Dr Jim Swires (who lost daughter in Lockerbie terrorist attack) web site.

lockerbietruth.com

Frankly the query is the welcomed. Any new investigation may reveal the real horrible truth. (In short... Libia was blamed for a revenge attack that originated in Iran via Germany. The blame was shifted to Gaddaffi in Libia for political convenience by Thatcher and George Bush Senior).

from the LRB source quoted above.

Behind every crime there is of course a motive. For the initial prime suspect, Iran, the motive was brutally clear. In July 1988 a US battleship, the Vincennes, shot down Iran Air Flight 655 in the Persian Gulf, with 290 passengers, many of them pilgrims en route to Mecca. There were no survivors. By chance a television crew was on the Vincennes when the attack took place and images of triumph at the carnage were immediately beamed around the world. When it became clear, as it did straight away, that the attack was an appalling error, the US compounded its mistake: President Reagan claimed self-defence and the ship’s commander and crew were awarded high military honours.
