You see, BP, as a foreign multi-national corporation, can do things in the process of exploration, drilling and extraction of oil that US-based companies can\u2019t do. What and why, you may ask, would a foreign national corp (short for corpse) with a track record like BP\u2019s be given so much latitude? How could they, of all oil giants, be the beneficiary of such permitting largesse, regulatory laxity and freedom of practice?<\/p>\n<p>Well, first of all, they were permitted to drill at depths to which no one else could drill \u2013 legally \u2013 because of the mother lodes waiting at the tip of their humongous drill bits. In the instant case we\u2019re talking at the very least 50 to 100 million barrels of oil. Also, by their convenient foreign corporate distance from the US Government, they were practically immune to various oversight regimes that are normally imposed on their US counterparts.

Whenever and wherever SERCO is involved with the affairs of government, you know that there is something very, VERY wrong going on.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Conclusion<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>In reality, SERCO is just one of hundreds of government contractors, many of which perform similar [CLANDESTINE] services. \u00a0Just like the U.S. Armed Forces frequently outsource their special security contracts to firms comprised of prior military mercenaries, there are outsourcing companies for every service and product under the sun.\u00a0 \u00a0In this way, the revolving door between the government and corporate sectors is now moving faster after than ever.<\/p>\n<p>The more politically sensitive and\/or militarily dangerous any particular mission is, the more firms like SERCO are utilized to do the dirty work&#8230; real dirty work. \u00a0Especially in cases like 9\/11 and Sandy Hook, plausible deniability becomes the overriding factor. \u00a0This is exactly why the U.S. Government gave BP total control over the BP Gulf oil spill crime scene. \u00a0Not only were they a\u00a0British multinational company headquartered in London, England, they could get away with criminal conduct that would have shut down an American company.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Final Point:<\/strong> Outsourcing the most repugnant and unlawful operations of government has been the primary way for keeping it off the front page for decades. \u00a0However, even the extraordinary rendition programs post 9\/11 can be exposed when the right whistleblower wanders into the wrong place at the wrong time (actually the right place at the right time).<\/p>\n<p>Let&#8217;s face it, when government-sponsored abductions and the extrajudicial transfer of those abductees from one country to another are perpetrated in order to illegally torture those individuals, the <em>Government-Corporate Complex<\/em> that supports these blackops places itself in serious jeopardy. \u00a0In this manner have the SERCOs of the world been put on notice.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/stateofthenation2012.com\/?p=27612\">State of the Nation<\/a><br \/>\nDecember 21, 2015<\/p>\n<p>Editor&#8217;s Note<\/p>\n<p>It should be pointed out that controlling forces within the United Kingdom have quite deliberately infiltrated all the English-speaking countries of the world. \u00a0They each perform a crucial function in the implementation of the <em>New World Order<\/em> agenda. \u00a0They also play an integral role in artificially maintaining the fraudulent Global Economic &amp;
