..."A grim report circulating in the Kremlin today written by Russia’s Northern Fleet is reporting that the United States has ordered a complete media blackout over North Korea’s torpedoing of the giant Deepwater Horizon oil platform owned by the World’s largest offshore drilling contractor Transocean that was built and financed by South Korea’s Hyundai Heavy Industries Co. Ltd., that has caused great loss of life, untold billions in economic damage to the South Korean economy, and an environmental catastrophe to the United States."

If it was torpedoed, how why did it explode and burn ON THE DECK for a couple of days before sinking?

This story is way over the top and does not make any logical sense,logic is the first place that I start when trying to decipher for the truth.Lets entertain for a moment that this nonsense is truth.Why would BP take full responsibility for the disaster caused by N Korea?Why would they willingly fork over 20 billion dollars?
If this nonsense had a minuscule of truth to it the President could not stop BP from screaming from the roof tops that N Korea blew up their rig.And there is no way a company would fork over all that money if they could avoid it.
I read the comments by Adam and he is a left wing nut case that mixes some truth with conjecture to build a case.
Do not feel too bad,the truth is hard to find in todays political environment where both the left and right will peddle lies to push a agenda or shine a bad light on the opposing side.Myself fell for the lie that the Obama administration had something to do with closing a majority of {R} owned Chrysler dealerships.
But it has been pointed out that a huge majority of Chrysler dealerships were supporters of the {R} party and that Chrysler made the decision on what dealerships were closed.Even though I am not a supporter of the POTUS that makes logical sense and is the truth.
All a person can do is give themselves one of these and keep moving on and do a better job of finding the truth.

It's fun to think about, but the answer is more likely to be found in this article by the WSJ.

Well I surely dont think the spill was caused by a torpedo.. Considering the amount of oil in the area and equipment on board, if it had been torpedod, it very likely could have caught figure and burned for days..
