President Obama and his administration lied trying to cover-up the health problems created by the Bp oil leak. How much proof do you need before you will realize there are health problems in the Gulf of Mexico due to the oil leak and dispersant usage? The oil and dispersant are poisoning marine life, cleanup workers and the public. Everyday more evidence of the long term devastation becomes available. The Government is suppressing the media regarding the effects of the oil and corexit on marine life and public health. Sorry to say the long term effect of this disaster will be catastrophic to many forms of marine life. Cancer, birth defects, liver, kidney disease, respiratory, lung conditions will plaque the cleanup workers and residents in the Gulf region for years to come. The damage will be similar to the devastation of an atomic blast it will just take longer but the result will be the same in the end.

I was aboard an Icelandic fishing vessel for a day. These are the photographic slides shot. I had the day off and this was a once in a lifetime opportunity. I don't remember how the trip was setup but I know it had the approval of the H3 site commander. As I remember I was the only American on board. The Cod Wars, also called the Icelandic Cod Wars, were a series of confrontations in the 1950s and 1970s between the United Kingdom and Iceland regarding fishing rights in the North Atlantic. In 1972, Iceland unilaterally declared an Exclusive Economic Zone extending beyond its territorial waters, before announcing plans to reduce overfishing. It policed its quota system with the coast guard, leading to a series of net-cutting incidents with British trawlers that fished the areas. As a result, a fleet of Royal Naval warships and tug-boats were employed to act as a deterrent against any future harassment of British fishing crews by the Icelandic craft. The conflict involved several cases of vessels ramming each other. The dispute ended in 1976 after Iceland threatened to close a major NATO base in retaliation for Britain's deployment of naval vessels within the disputed 200 nautical mile (370 km) limit. The British government conceded, and agreed that after 1 December 1976 British vessels would not fish within the previously disputed area
