I have been wondering every since the happenings of this last week! Does anyone else know of the explosions that have happened in the United States this last week?
First two were on Monday the 20th. One explosion at an animal feed plant in Omaha, NE. Two are dead from that or maybe more because no current news can be found on it. There were several injured also and some of those were serious. Then within a few hours from that explosion there was another in Madill, OK at a steel and wire plant with two dead there and other injured.
Then two days later on Wednesday the 22nd an explosion just north of New Albany, MS at a biodiesel plant which was so bad that the responders could not even get near it for some time. Then just a bit later in the afternoon at the same plant another explosion went off. Now that plant has been reduced to rubble!
So, am I the only one that is wondering why this was not news worthy material??!! Have we been reduced to thinking that these explosion are so everyday occurrences that no one cares anymore?!
Well, I do care and wonder why it is being downplayed so. If you were to research the info and try to find an update....not happening! As I sit here shaking my head thinking we are in some deep trouble!
I would love to hear others thoughts and opinions on this!!!
 
Because the arrest of Justin Beiber is way more important then industrial plants exploding. That is just how CORPORATE mainstream media works these days. The only way to get real/truth news is through alternative media found on the web such as drudge report or Steve Quayle just to name a few. As the song goes... It's sad, but true. Luckily many are starting to FINALLY realize fox, cnn, msnbc, abc etc etc cannot be trusted, and turning to alt media.
 
I wondered about that too Mountain Heart. I found it odd not much was said about this!

They have yet to give cause to all the explosions, new conspiracy maybe to keep public calm!
 
I thought I saw somthing about a couple of these on FOX . I wonder what the poor clown that blew his hand off while driving with a boot leg M1000 was up to . First I heard of the Biodiesel plant .
 
This is exactly what I mean. These links are the same ones from the first day that the happenings occurred. So I wonder now how long before any new news or findings are released if at all. It seems if it were any other news it would be gone over a hundred times with new updates daily or enough attention drawn to it that one gets tired of hearing the same thing. I am sure it is just me but it seems a bit suspicious.
 
I hadn't heard a thing about it. Nothing about any of them. I'll look around, but please keep us posted if you find anything else on these.
 
I watch the news almost every night, and you're right, haven't heard anything on these stories. It's been pretty hard to ignore bibber though!
 
Stories like this are not put in the news because then regualar citizens lije you and I may actually see how dangerous some of these indistries are. Maybe nit in this case, I can't see animal feeding plant or steal factory being that harmful to the enviroment, the biodesel though. I don't know, but it happens here in canada. Just last halloween there was a huge coal slurry spill into the Athabasca river the second biggest one in North America, and not a singal person I spoke with or asked if they heard anything knew about it... The Athabasca river is amoungst one of the biggest in Canada stretching through 3 provinces, being the main water supply for dozens of communities along the way... why would we not be infirmed that our water supply just had 3000000 tons of chemical waste spill into it? Mainly because it woukd create a cause for question. It would mean that we as a people would force the government to look into it, we would demand to know why it happened, and also it would mean someone would have to answer to it and the enviromental laws would have to be enforced the big gas, oil, and coal industries would be held accountable for once.. and large fines and taxes paid... cause unrest with the corporations....and the possability of them taking thuer money else where because its too much hassle for them to continue on.... also it would bring activists and you know what activists do! Create change... governments hate **** like that. So rather then just tell the people of the incident and let them know the concerns we should have they push it through to a paragraph on page 12 of the newspaper somewhere between national news and the crossword puzzle. Something like that anyway.
