Its beginning to look like theres something more going on in the gulf than the public is aware of.
Whatever the R.O.V spotted and gave chase to, isn’t your run of the mill fish thats for sure.

ATS MEMBER SAY’S: SOMETHING IS ALIVE AND BEING MONITORED BY BP OIL IN THE GULF

GD Star Rating
loading...

OK, so I was about to wrap things up and call it a night from defending the universe, when I decided to take one last jaunt thru the forums of ATS.

After quickly perusing the RSS feeds for anything newsworthy I settled on checking one last post and WOW !!!!…the claims made by the member MaxBlack literally had me racing to doublecheck the YouTube sources he listed.

If this is a HOAXED story then remember ya heard it hear first, but just imagine for a moment the ramifications if its not.

In any event I’ll shut up so you can dive into it for yourself and afterwards lets hear what you think.

ATS Member Alarmed by Strange findings-Seeks help

I care that others are informed and are as fully aware as I am about a matter of great importance and great impact to our daily lives. I will provide my sources, my process and my limited findings. Afterward, if you feel as I do that something is in need of true investigation, then my goal would have been achieved by this thread.

Afterward, it is my hope that the adults in the audience and within ATS admin staff would do whatever can be done to try and find someone, some agency or even some foreign interested party to assist in further and more scientific examination of what has been now observed by BP ROV Operations for some time now that the public is not aware of as fully as the public needs to be informed about.

While the claims have been many and the attention all placed on oil leaks and blow out preventers and Corexit contamination and possible methane sea floor explosions and assassinations and strange deaths and as such it does not surprise me that this subject matter has gotten zero coverage and or interest in the public’s ability to be aware of what is going on that should truly matter more to us that all the other distractions.

While the subject matter is fantastic, it will take a brief review of only the information necessary to get you to see that what I am stating is as verifiable as it can get without personally going to 5500ft of water and looking for myself. This fact alone makes what I am about to discuss difficult, but I promise that if you stick with the premise and follow with me through my process, then and only then will you be able to discern what I am so concerned about why my sense of alarm is necessary. Let me begin.

In July of this year, I was following up on some leads about nano engineered organisms and a suspected ancient Stargate find in the Gulf and well one thing led to another. Anyway, one day I found on You Tube a video poster by the name of BeePeeOilDisaster that was recording these strange bugs that ate through metal. That is what got me looking at the BP ROV camera feeds in the first place.

Over time these bugs collectively got together one day and formed a small but select grouping. Later a slow metamorphous began with a luminescent skin tissue appeared or what appeared as some type of skin that you could almost see through like some invisibility ability, but anyway, over time that small grouping of those small bugs began hovering around one single bug.

In time, that single leader controlling bug started to change into an eye and well to say the least, I myself was staggered at what I was seeing. Later, weeks of continued coverage of this blob thing was still being captured by BP ROV Operations and so I kept analyzing videos from BeePeeOilDisaster. Anything I have found can be duplicated by anyone of even marginal intelligence by looking at my sources and later I will fully explain the software I used and how I got the results I am offering.

BP ROV Operations lately has been monitoring a huge blob like organism that is of gigantic proportions. That small cluster of bugs a month ago has turned into this big gigantic one and while with all the strange growth properties of the bugs and the intelligence being exhibited, is indeed puzzling, this blob has grown so big that they have multiple BP ROV cameras on in and it is that BP ROV Camera that I have come to show as an example of what is being seen but not discussed on any conspiracy site let alone ATS.

While I tried to introduce a thread and some discussion on the matter, I found being laughed at less than successful and have since kept my findings for the most part to myself and what I have put out there for people to see has alarmed many. It is alarming because once you can see the results of what I did and you understand that I am not some faker hoaxer, is when this subject matter sinks in deep and makes one concerned.

I am offering the two video links to the videos that I used to find my current results and my process in getting those photos to look like they do. While those of you who don’t believe in You-Tube videos, well just suck it up and consider my findings before blowing a brain cell.

I would warn those that watching BeePeeOilDisaster videos can be a dull chore because of course the messenger talks like deputy dog and most don’t consider anything after that judgment call. All I ask is that you listen to his commentary once through, then mute it and do some image investigation. His raw footage is what produced everything I have ever done on the matter. With that in mind, please show some patience for how BeePeeOilDisaster talks and try to listen to the message. Then look with your own eyes and judge for yourself if what I am about to explain is logical and more than possible.

Link to Video #1 will be showing some huge claw grabbing a huge eel and dragging it down under the crust of the beast. Watch the video and remember the camera view. Remember that the eel getting grabbed and drug down under is approximately 20 ft long. That makes the grabber in the first video a huge claw that catches it and then drags it towards itself. Key to remember here is that of the camera angle. It will matter for video #2.

Link to video #2 will be to the latest BP ROV observation of the huge blob creature and my use of color filters to see what BP is seeing from directly overhead at about 500 ft height over the blob creature.

Now let me discuss my process after viewing video sources. When I viewed the videos I paused, screen captured using Capture and then after naming the picture I open it in IrFran View editor. Once in IrFran View, I go to view, negative and then I return to view again and go to color correction. This is where I played with the colors to produce a visible image for me to show. No magic, no expensive software, just screen capture, negative, color correction and a save. Anyone can do it.

I am offering two current photos to consider and afterward when you have concluded what I have, would you please do what you can to bring attention to the matter . We need to know whether it is self replicating and if this big one is going to hatch millions more. Any creature over five football fields long is a monster and I don’t care what dictionary you use, to me anything over 15 ft is a monster. For crying out loud, it’s eating a 20ft eel like some leftover chicken wing.

Take a look at my photo evidence findings and thank you for taking the time to consider this thread and my thoughts on the subject. Please do what you can to get someone of true investigative authority to do something. The public deserves to know and someone deserves to answer because it’s not like they don’t know what is going on. They have been watching as long as I have and with their inside knowledge and special cameras they know full well what is there and that is why they watch.

Of note, in my blob photos is the fact that there is a BP ROV camera on the back of the blob and that camera is the exact one in my mind based on angle that captured the eel getting killed and drug down under. The second video shows the outline and if nothing more ATS and others, any creature that size with a spine and claws that big that eats 20f t long eels is something we better discuss. I could be wrong, but I don’t think so.

Thanks again and please do what you can to get someone to investigate. After six days of worry I must now sleep.

BP OIL WHISTLEBLOWER FOUND DEAD AT HOME

GD Star Rating
loading...

NORTH HAVEN, Maine – The Knox County Sheriff’s Department says Matthew Simmons, the founder of the Ocean Energy Institute, drowned at his house on North Haven late Sunday night.

Simmons was a leading investment banker for the energy industry and had recently retired to work full time on the new Ocean Energy Institute.

He was a leading proponent of offshore wind power and had started raising money to develop and build offshore turbines.

He and his family had also bought and rebuilt the Old Strand Theater in downtown Rockland.

ARTICLE SOURCE

Hmmm…Here lies dead a former whistle blower regarding the BP spill with former ties to the CFR.

Nothing to see here folks….move along

This is the gentleman who has told us recently that the BP spill was a sham, possibly to cover up what he has been saying about the real leak being 7 miles from the Deep Horizon platform.

And something interesting to note is there have been conflicting reports as to Matt’s demise.

I’ve read in one article that he died of a heart attack and in another story he drowned.

While it’s possible to have a heart attack while swimming, then drown. Drowning would be the cause of death complicated by the heart attack. Because, of course, there can only be one cause of death.

Being that this occurred yesterday, I’d highly doubt that a medical examiner would be aware that Matt had a heart attack if he was found dead in a pool and suspected of drowning without a proper examination of the patient – which would undoubtedly take more than one day.

BP PHOTOSHOPS FAKE PHOTO OF CRISIS COMMAND CENTER

GD Star Rating
loading...




















UPDATE: 11:14PM Eastern: BP has has now posted the original photo, they claim. Except – surprise – they are refusing to post the high-resolution version of the new “original” photo. They posted the high-res version of the altered photo earlier, and in fact, that version is still live via a link below the new photo. Why not post the high-res version of the new “original” photo? Afraid someone is going to enlarge it and find out it’s fake too?

UPDATE 10:37PM Eastern:
The Washington Post has the story now. Oddly, BP is now claiming that the photo is real – but it showed blank screens, and rather than show blank screens at AP’s crisis center, they instead put fake content-filled screens in the photo. Uh, a few questions.

1) Why were the screens in the crisis center blank in the middle of the crisis? Coffee break?
2) The BP spokesman claims that the photographer photoshopped the changes. Really? A professional photographer hired by BP Photoshops so poorly that a 12 year old kid could do a better job. Really? Let me show you what BP said exactly, and then the photo that supposedly this “professional” edited:

Scott Dean, a spokesman for BP, said that there was nothing sinister in the photo alteration and provided the original unaltered version. He said that a photographer working for the company had inserted the three images in spots where the video screens were blank.

Now here is the Photoshop job that the “professional” photographer did – this is just one part of the photo that he screwed up:































Anyone who has ever used Photoshop knows that this is an incredibly amateur job. I can do far better than this, and I tend to play with Photoshop for fun. We’re to believe that a professional photographer did this poor a job, for pay, for a huge corporate client? Really? No one would hire this photographer again if this is true. Oh, and the photographer added the fake screens to the photo, what, without BP’s permission? That’s what they’re implying, “the photographer did it.”

3) Why does the meta data show that the photo was actually taken on March 6, 2001? Or is BP next going to tell us that their professional photographer has never set the time and date stamp on his multi-thousand dollar camera? Because then all of his photos for all of his clients will be screwed up. Really?
______________________________________

UPDATE: The photo contains data suggesting it was taken in 2001, not July of 2010 as claimed on BP’s Web site. That would suggest, at least one possibility is, that BP took an old photo and Photoshopped new pictures of the oil spill over it, to make it look “new.” More on this at the end of the post.

I guess if you’re doing fake crisis response, you might as well fake a photo of the crisis response center. Why do they need a fake photo at all? Don’t they have a real crisis response center they could have used?

Original BP Photo that is linked off of this page, with a snippet of the photo:




















CLICK IMAGE TO ENLARGE



Note the bad Photoshop job on the parts I cropped and blew up – click on each photo to see the larger version, which makes it painfully clear that they faked the photo (poorly, at that):































































































































UPDATE: BP has apologized for the Photoshopped version of its command center, and it has just released this new, unedited version.




























In all seriousness, an astute reader noticed that the meta info for the photo says it was created in 2001, not July 16, 2010 as claimed on BP’s site. It looks like BP took a photo from 2001, and in order to make it look like the command center in July of 2010, they pasted pictures of the oil well leaking over the old photo.

HIDDEN IN PLAIN SIGHT: PROJECT PLOWSHARE

GD Star Rating
loading...












































It is all coming together now. This appears to be evidence of our ultimate downfall, shown to us in plain sight by those in control, and obviously planning the destruction of our environment to poison us ALL. This is not even a “warning”, it’s more like… “Here is how we will do it and you cannot stop us”.

The connection is Project Plowshare, possible nuke solution for the Gulf oil spill which by the way was foretold to us in Denver with that mural. It’s like a taunt. They are taunting us by spelling out their plan to us before it happens.

Another NWO / Denver Airport thread? Not exactly.

Project “Plowshare” in the 50′s utilized nuclear explosions for “peaceful” purposes…such as building dams, tunnels, etc.

Another “peaceful” use could be nuking the BP leak in the gulf. There has been much debate on this, but whatever side you fall on, you must agree it is still an option. Is it safe? We have no idea of knowing. Could it cause (or help) an extinction-level event ?

Also don’t forget the Hollywood Predictive Programming machine with this movie:

When an asteroid the size of Texas is headed for Earth the world’s best deep core drilling team is sent to nuke the rock from the inside.



















There has also been much debate, and many threads here on the true meaning of the strange murals at the Denver Airport.

Take a look at this one:















































Notice what the boy is hammering the sword into? It’s a plowshare.

Now, is this a coincidence that the US had a nuke program called Plowshare??!??

This is foretelling of an event, unfolding right now, where MILLIONS could be hammered into the plowshare, through the use of a nuke to stop the leak….

Does anyone still deny the elite’s propensity to warn of events we have absolutely no control over?

They are telling us, right here, how they will begin depopulation.

Also…
Much ado has been made about the three consecutive eclipses on the 1st of Av. Well guess what……

On the 9th of Av the Romans ran a plow over Zion. Turnus Rufus, a Roman officer, plowed the area of the Temple.

There is an old Roman coin with the image of a man plowing. The Romans minted coins showing the plowing motif as a symbol of the establishment of a new Roman city.

There have been 5 historic events on the 9th of Av. One of those events was the plowing of Jerusalem by the Romans.































Here’s a related article: SOURCE

And an interesting quote:

“And they will have to beat their swords into plowshares and their spears into pruning shears. Nation will not lift up sword against nation, neither will they learn war anymore.” – Isaiah 2:4

SEA TURTLE FINDS CAMCORDER THEN RECORDS HIMSELF SWIMMING

GD Star Rating
loading...

How the hell did he turn it on, then set it to record ?
Maybe hes trying to shed light on the fact that BP oil is incinerating sea turtles.

I found a camera and Ikelite waterproof housing washed ashore in Key West, FL. Pictures dated from November, 2009 indicate it floated all the way from Aruba over a period of 6 months. Two months in to the journey, this sea turtle came across it and probably tried to eat it, turning the camera on and recording himself. The owner has been located in Aruba and confirmed he lost it while diving off Aruba on November 11, 2009. The last thing the owner did was take a video, so the camera was in video mode. This incident with the turtle ocurred on January 15, 2010. The camera washed ashore in Key West on May 16, 2010 covered in growth.

Based on time, I estimate this video to have occurred in the vicinity of Honduras. As far as we know, and having confirmed the date of loss from the owner, this video was made with absolutely no human assistance.

The camera is a Nikon Coolpix L18. The waterproof housing is an Ikelite.

Battery Life – The camera was powered by 2 AA batteries. When the owner lost the camera, it was either turned off, or the camera went in to battery saver mode and turned itself off. The camera stayed off until the turtle happened upon it 2 months later. Makes sense. The batteries would still be good, as apparently they were. Otherwise, this video would not exist.

This is not the best video in the world, but what do you want from a turtle? This shortened video ends at the point the turtle and the camera separated. The video ran for another 15 minutes, looking straight up at the sky with water washing over it. The full 20 min video ends, I assume, because the batteries died. There was still room on the card.

Special thanks to the good people of Scubaboard.com, Cruisecritic.com, and Aruba.com for helping me identify the owner. I could not have done it without their help.

The camera has been sent back to the owner in Aruba.

Anyone interested in reading the case as it was solved, read here. This thread explains how we found the camera to be from Aruba and how we found the owner.

BP OIL SLICK PREDICTED IN RARE 70′S BOARD GAME

GD Star Rating
loading...

A rare BP board game was unearthed which chillingly warns of oil slicks with $1million clean up costs – one per cent of the amount now being spent every day. The 1970s set ‘BP Offshore Oil Strike’ promises all the ”thrills of drilling” in the North Sea with the first person to make £120 million dollars crowned the winner. But players are also warned of potential oil spills caused by rig damage in ‘hazard’ cards, which would cost ‘£1m dollars’ to clear up.

The petrol giant is currently shelling out £100 million (£67m) a day to try and stem oil spewing into the Gulf of Mexico following an explosion aboard its Deepwater Horizon rig. Recent estimates show that BP have already spent £1.9billion (£3billion) clearing up the spill since April 20 when a blast killed 11 people. The hazard card in the two to four player game reads: ”Blow-Out! Rig damaged. Oil slick clean-up costs. Pay £1,000,000?.

Players compete at exploring for oil, building platforms and laying pipelines to bring offshore oil back to the their home country. The rare mint condition set, made by Scottish manufacturer Printabox, was donated by a private collector to The House on the Hill Toy Museum in Stansted, Essex, last week. Museum owner Alan Goldsmith said he was bowled over by the similarities between the ”very obscure and hard to find” game and BP’s current crisis.

He said: ”The parallels between the game and the current crisis out in the Gulf of Mexico are so spooky. The picture on the front of the box is so reminiscent of the disaster with the stormy seas, the oil rig and an overall sense of doom. I was just knocked over by how relevant this game is, despite being made some 35 years ago, to BP’s troubles today. It’s amazing when you think that their own game predicted this big oil slick – although sadly not the extent of the cost involved.”
