The jury is damned sure still out on this, they may not get all the evidence however.
Mine collapse.....coal...rig blow up..oil. Hmmmm. Just another coincidence folks...move along.
Castro and the Cuban commies had a hand in it too. They are all working together to bring down America. Who are they? N. Korea, China, Cuba, Russia, Vietnam, France, Germany, Venezuela and a lot of others all working together with Obama, Wall Street and the old GOP to destroy America. Look at the chaos in Bangkok. Why is that happening now?
The NK angle seems ridiculous, but it did seem odd that SWAT teams were being sent to oil rigs.
The idea behind the alleged involvement of the NORKS is that the rig belonged to South Korea, making it a proper target. The near total blackout on news of the survivors, what happened to cause the initial explosion, and sending SWAT(???)teams to the scene all cause me to begin to wonder if this was sabotage, probably caused by eco-terrorists. After all, the near total silence about the cause and immediately preceding events are eerily similar to the near complete news blackout of the political assault on Bobby Jindal's campaign finance chairman and her boyfriend.
This needs to be corrected. The Mining Services sent teams out to inspect rigs.....not SWAT teams with weapons. SWAT teams on rigs is one of the most asinine ideas ever, we have the Coast Guard and Navy if we suspect foul play.....
Please.....11 men died in the explosion....it happens...a lot...
The story here is the obowma administration just figured out yesterday that they actually have resources they could have sent to the Gulf, days ago.
I don’t think NK had anything to do with it, but if they had, Bambi would certainly have covered it up.
This particular article's theory approaches the satire of The Onion.
Is it then an argument to the extreme to pre-empt speculation of a realistic sort.
Cui bono: Obama and his puppeteers, found in the Saudi Prince, and in the extant Russian power structure, and the Chinese as well.
Hugo Chavez and Fidel Castro are merely their downstream.
Earth First and the Sierra Club figure as a political action wing.
Accidents do happen of course--an epic catastrophe on the day before Earth Day at a political moment when off-shore drilling is being pushed--
My what a coincidence.
Obama is the most powerful man in the world and has means motive and opportunity.
Agreed.
Listen to Mark Levin’s Exclusive Interview with a Survivor from the Oil Rig Explosion
"James" - who was on the oil rig that blew in the Gulf - calls the Mark Levin Show and explains what occurred.
north korea??
hell, I thought it was a certainty 0bama did it (ordered it)
Please people, educate yourselves about rigs and drilling disasters. You can start here...

“Former North Korean soldiers who defected to South Korea on Monday claimed “underwater suicide squads” may have been responsible for the mysterious sinking of a South Korean naval vessel on Friday.
[....]
The suicide attack squads are known as the “invincibles” in the Air Force, “bombs” in the Army and “human torpedoes” in the Navy. North Korea is said to place special emphasis on the naval squads. It operates a brigade of suicide attack squads in its East Sea and West Sea fleets and they are considered key to overcoming North Korea's inferior conventional military power.
One former North Korean sailor who defected to South Korea said the suicide squads have many semi-submersible vessels that can carry two bombers and either two torpedoes or two floating mines.

More likely Cuba or China.
This is just plain dumb, to the point of being hilarious. I suppose there are people that will believe it, but there are much more probable scenarios to consider. Why pick something as far fetched as NORK involvement, when it is more probable that there’s been a hardware failure?
Don’t believe much of what you read in the papers, and never believe what you read in a British paper. As my daughter says, “They’re the worstest, of the bunch”.
Yes! The North Koreans sailed their state-of-the-art submarine across the Pacific ocean, sailed around the southern tip of South America, up its east coast and snuck into the Gulf of Mexico undetected.
Its a shame they didn’t offer Greenpeace a million dollar donation to do it. It would have been just as effective and cost a lot less time and money.
Here’s the problem I have with all this....
“There was an explosion”. It’s pretty difficult to get a substance, particularly a gas, to explode unless it is confined in a pressure vessel. Hell, even gunpowder will not explode if you light it with a match unless it’s confined. Certainly not oil or gas or even hydrogen. It just burns.
We don’t know the NKs were involved and we don’t know that they weren’t working for Obama if they were.
