News, why does it suck more often than not?
Oh Dear.
It seems that the top kill idea hasn't worked either - not sure of details yet. That's bad...
Though what could be worse is if the incident is taken from oil & gas specialists and put into military hands & minds. Whilst they have the man-power & capital resource, they don't have the skills & equipment needed. Is there a middle ground? Where the too-commercially-involved BP are involved but not running the show, but it doesn't turn into a design-by-committee exercise, which won't come up with a timely solution? I doubt it...
And I'm not going to comment in depth on the recent Israeli atrocity. I wondered for a while why they were so public about in their response, and why they didn't use the more discrete options that were open to them. But reading a few more articles, this thing just gets more and more complex. Thankfully, they didn't do what they could have. Yes, the convoy was an exercise in goading & provocation, but does that make what happened right? Emphatically no, IMO.
