BP Oil Spill & Bhopal

The Bhopal Gas Tragedy is the world's worst industrial disaster:

It occurred on the night of December 2/3, 1984 at the Union Carbide India Limited (subsidiary of Dow Chemical) pesticide plant in Bhopal-India. A leak of gas and other chemicals from the plant resulted in the exposure of several thousands of people. About fifteen thousand people died so far. In that 8000 were immediate deaths.

In June 2010, seven ex-employees, including the former chairman of UCIL, were convicted in Bhopal of causing death by negligence and sentenced to two years imprisonment and a fine of about $2,000 each, the maximum punishment allowed by law; unfortunately Justice denied to those families; who lost their loved ones. So far they have not got adequate compensation in last so many years. Justice denied to those families.

Let’s take a look at BP Oil Spill in Gulf of Mexico, USA:

Thank god; no deaths!

$20 Billion (with $3 billion immediate deposit in escrow account); Americans received as compensation from BP. This is for Oil spill from BP Oil Drill; which caused environment disaster, affected many beach goers and fishermen, and for impact to regional economy.

Helen Thomas

The legendary journalist; covered the administrations of ten US presidents; had to resign after her controversial comments about Israel / Palestine were captured on video and widely circulated on the Internet.

A rabbi asked her a question about Israel; her reply was: "Tell them to get the hell out of Palestine." She continued to say that the Palestinians are "occupied" and that the Jews should "Go home" – to Germany Poland, America and "everywhere else."
Does the white house know the real meaning of “Press Freedom” or “freedom of speech” or whether the Americans know the level of Jewish lobby in US political circle?

Anyways it was her decision to quit; before anyone pressurize her to do so!
