In Honor of Dr. Thomas B. Manton, a True Modern American Hero

A BP Gulf Oil Spill HERO dies

Dr. Thomas B. Manton passed away on Wednesday, January 19th.

Tom was the former President/CEO of the International Oil Spill Control Corporation which was one of the very first oil spill control companies in the world formed outside of the rubric of the Oil & Gas Industry. In this capacity he helped create many of the protocols and establish many of the standards that are still in use today throughout the realm of oil spill control.

He became an increasingly vocal critic of the BP response to the Gulf Oil Spill, and wrote five searing articles in that regard. He was particularly distressed that the US Federal Government allowed BP to completely take charge of the Gulf of Mexico oil spill disaster area, as his experience taught him that “the offending oil company should never be given command over the oil spill response”.

Tom Manton was one of the founding members of the Gulf Oil Spill Remediation Conference in Tallahassee, FL. In this capacity he formed the very backbone of this International Citizens’ Initiative offering his wealth of experience, broad and deep knowledge base, and penetrating insights into the complexities of proper oil spill remediation. Tom also brought an invaluable international network of professionals and contacts, many of whom joined the cyber-conference after his spirited recruitment. He truly appreciated the enormity and seriousness of the BP Gulf Oil Spill very early on, and set about the process of educating the US Government, as well as the States of Florida and Louisiana, about the huge challenges that lie ahead.

We are grateful to Tom for all his efforts. Our thoughts and prayers are with his friends and family. We share their sadness.

    This coming on the heels of BK Lim’s life being threatened. It’s like a bad B movie, only, it’s not fiction.

    is getting the word out enough anymore?

    Time for some real action? A citizen’s movement, not just dialouge?

    Dr. Tom, what say? Action time!!!

    We have the means, numbers, everything on our side. How do we release the power of Truth, a Satyagrah.

    It sad to hear this happening Dr. Thomas B. Manton who is a real American Hero! I would say that we should boycott BP, but that would have very little on BP or the way that they do business. What most people don’t know about BP is that it was set up by the British Government and is principally owned and operated by the British Government. So BP isn’t just a billion dollar private international corporation. But, it is a government owned and operated billion dollar corporation by a foreign government that inside the United States.

    The reason that Obama doesn’t do anything about this issue is that he is owned and by this same British financial and/or British Government circles. Because, Obama is one of there assets, he will defend there interest at our expense. The President is a trader by defending foreign interest at our expense.

    This is how the power structure is setup and this is why we don’t see anything being done about the Gulf of Mexico oil spill. As long as these condition continue into the future we won’t see anything done about this problem there either.

    I hope I didn’t depress you, but there is a way out. There are a few steps that we have to take to resolve this problem and many other problems that this nation faces and they are.

    1. Impeach Obama and any other people that might be traders to the United States, the US Constitution or the American People.

    2. Re enact Glass Segal and/or put the Federal Reserve into a bankruptcy re-organization. The Federal Reserve is also private bank that is also owned by those same people that own BP. That why they have so much power to control things.

    Until we take out there assets inside the US Government and the Federal Reserve system by removing the 1913 Federal Reserve Charter that give them the power to control the US Banking System then we can do nothing about BP and the mess they created in the Gulf of Mexico. These two British assets inside the United States will stop any effort to go after BP, so we have to take them down first. Once this has been done, then we can deal with BP is self.

    3. The US Government needs to seize BP and all there assets inside the United States and in it territorial waters. Instead of having BP being a British government corporation inside the United States, we are going to make BP a US Corporation inside the United States.

    4. Send in the Amy Corp of Engineers to assess the problem and what needs to be done to solve this problem. Then allocate the resources to deal with this problem. At this late date in this oil spill, it will cost hundreds of billions of dollars and maybe even a trillion or more to clean this mess up and take ten year or longer to do it. If we had done this within two or three days of this spill, we might have been able to have cleaned it up in six month or less and only spent few tens of billions of dollars. But, it too late for that now.

    This is the basic format that we have to take if we are really serious about straightening this mess out or we aren’t really serious about straightening this mess out.

    To T. Manton’s family, this man was a great testimony to the positive uses of a
    blessed soul. His is a sad loss for all people who praise this good earth. He took care and really gave it back.

    Well, it seems the bad guys control the state of Florida. However, on careful examination, it is evident they only control a small amount of office space, and the insides of a few police cars. Since by controlling what they do of the military and the CFR television networks, they make the country feel out-numbered. But the people have not yet turned on their sick, demented attackers and used the same rules.
    And win we will, because WE know how the game is played. So we don’t have to lie and cheat to get positive results. Lies, devils and cockroaches hide in the shadows. Truth sees light as a great fertilizer.
