What comes out in interviews with oil company workers & experienced oil geologists like Matt Simmons is that BP has a reckless culture that contributed directly to the mega-disaster currently unfolding in the Gulf.
Specifically, what the workers have to say is that they were pressured to "hurry up". Supersize rigs like Deepwater Horizon cost $500K+ a day when they're deployed in the field. An extra 2 weeks of drill prep therefore costs BP an extra $3.5 million a week.
To which most of us would say, "So what ? DO IT RIGHT."
First I will link to some information sources about Deepwater Horizon; below I have listed BP's management.
But what I really want to know is, who owns BP ? I couldn't get an answer to that question. I have a hunch that the Greed of BP's Jewish owners played a direct role in the reckless culture that caused the disaster.
"BP Pressured Rig Worker to Hurry Before Disaster"

" May 28 (Bloomberg) -- The highest-ranking crew member to perish aboard the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig warned his family that BP Plc was pressuring him to sacrifice safety for the sake of time and money, his father said.
Jason Anderson, one of 11 rig workers presumed dead after an April 20 explosion and fire sank the Deepwater Horizon and triggered the worst oil spill in U.S. history, told relatives in February and March that BP was urging him to accelerate work on the Macondo well off the Louisiana coast, said his father, Billy Anderson.
On previous wells drilled with the same rig, Jason Anderson, a 35-year-old employee of vessel owner Transocean Ltd., had been able to convince BP representatives to eschew shortcuts that he believed would compromise safety, his father said. But in the eight weeks preceding the disaster, BP stepped up the pressure and overruled safety objections, Billy Anderson, 66, said.
“My Jason told me he had argued BP down a few times on previous wells when they wanted him to speed things up and make changes that were unsafe,†Billy Anderson said yesterday in an interview at his home near Blessing, Texas, about 110 miles southwest of Houston. “But the last two times he was home he said they were putting more and more pressure on him and he was worried.â€Â

In these 2 Youtube's, and in the webcast at Financial Sense, Simmons talks about the oil disaster, and compares BP's reckless culture to a much more careful culture at Petrobras.

BP (Mis) Management
http://www.bp.com/managedlistingsection.do?categoryId=9021802&contentId=7040609
Management: Hayward, Bondy, Bott, Conn, Dudley, Grote, Inglis, McKay
Board: Management + Svanberg + Anderson + Burgmans + Carroll + Castell + David + Davis + Flint + Julius (all last names)
BP's Balance Sheet - Market Cap of about $134 Billion, Debt of about $50 Billion

I am having trouble answering the question, Who owns BP ? To Whom Does BP Owe Their Debt ?
I suspect the answer will shed some light on the reckless culture that preceded the mega-disaster unfolding in the Gulf.
I have a hunch that Jew-Greed played a direct role in the disaster, but the management list doesn't shed very much light on the subject.
