examiner.com | An oil "clean-up worker" described to a reporter his vomiting foamy matter with brown colored matter in it that he later learned was probably blood. The Gulf operation involves the greatest crime against humanity and environment plus the greatest government cover-up in history, an atrocity supported by and covered-up by President Barack Obama, as documented in Crude Awakening by Journeyman Pictures, a London based film group.
First the worker, Donny Matsler noticed his eyes burning and then his throat burned "like it never has burned before."
He had come in contact with the dispersant, Corexit sprayed from planes, ships and then further inland, into backyards, from skiffs.
Matsler then vomited for about three hours he says. Then he suffered the Blue Plague lesions being reported by an increasing number people throughout the Gulf region.
"I did not know the seriousness of that," he said.
The account is among the unprecedented pollution and illness cataloged and documented in Journeyman Pictures' short film on a Youtube video Crude Awakening - USA.
Cramping, nausea, teeth and jaws disintegrating, brain fog are only some of the symptoms Dr. Riki Ott is seeing in people of the Gulf.
Where are the major US environmental and peace groups? Six months after onset of the Gulf operation, they are still not campaigning against this unprecedented genocide and ecocide, or helping fellow Americans, the suffering people of the Gulf. In recognition of the gravity of the the Gulf operation aerial spraying, Europeans have reached out to these groups to form an alliance. (See: Exclusive: Gulf chemical spray EU security concern. TransAtlantic alliance sought)
Journeyman Pictures director asks, "Are the beaches of America's Gulf Coast really 'open for business' after the BP oil spill?"
"An intensive investigation uncovers a series of cover-ups in place of a long-term fix. As the oil spillage on Florida beaches is merely covered with sand, jellyfish stained in oil wash ashore and fishermen experience numerous health problems. With Dr Riki Ott comparing these to "problems suffered by workers on the Exxon Valdez disaster", it appears that Obama's assertion that the disastrous BP oil spill fiasco has been resolved is far from the truth.
"Will the situation ever be rectified and most importantly, what are BP and the US authorities going to do?"
Journeyman Pictures is London's leading independent distributor of topical news features, documentaries and footage that describes its work stating, "We're like a video encyclopedia of the world."
Today, President Barack Obama, who has encouraged tourists to visit the Gulf danger zone, stated in an email to Americans, "The reason you knocked on doors, made phone calls, chipped in what you could, and cast your vote in 2008 was because you believed that your actions could make a difference and you could play a role in bringing about historic change. You were right."
People of the Gulf who supported electing Obama know they were wrong and that the "historic change" has been the worst imaginable, nothing short of a holocaust that the president today in his email with Organizing for America is asking Americans to help fund.
