I was offline for most of last week, and don't know what, if anything was said about MMS. I spent a few hours searching past posts, and didn't find anything yet, so just in case, since this video says MMS is an obscure organization, for the record, excerpts of some things I ran across :
BREAKING NEWS: U.S. Minerals Management Service chief Elizabeth Birnbaum fired, sources tell AP
"...The AC from NZ User ID: 951237 New Zealand 5/27/2010 10:53 AM
Again, it's all because of her letter that she wrote to BP regarding the Atlantis platform which I tried to alert everybody about in this thread here [link to http://www.godlikeproductions.com] - which is an ORIGINAL document from way back in February that proves that BP knowlingly ignored pleas and warnings from Ms. Birnbaum that the oil platform is headed for CATASTROPHE...
..and lo and behold what happened? That's right.. sure enough, it blew up...
...and now Ms. Birnbaum is fired from her job. Put the pieces together people. Look at my thread and READ the PDF file - it's a signed original document - you won't get any more closer to the truth than that. Serious shit is going down, folks......"
comment at 11:32: "So maybe we have a reason for her hasty departure,
Birnbaum was scheduled to testify before the House Appropriations Committee Thursday morning about the oil spill but she will not appear, Fox News has confirmed. Her deputy, Secretary David Hayes will testify in her place alongside Interior Secretary Ken Salazar."

The first paragraph of the letter confirms it for me:
" . . . This platform, the largest oil and natural gas platform in the world, may be operating without crucial engineering documents, which, if absent, would increase the risk of a catastrophic accident that would threaten not only the workers on the platform, but also the Gulf of Mexico and the communities who depend on the resources it provides."
Congressmen are not prophetic they are for profit . . . "
ATKHWDI Note: The Letter was not FROM Birnbaum, it was addressed TO her, from a handful of Congressmen. It was sent February 24, 2010, and made reference to a whistleblower ["he"] warning BP in March, 2009 that 90% of the required permits may have been lacking:
SMOKING GUN PROOF BP KNOWINGLY DODGED COMPLIANCE REGULATIONS ON ATLANTIS PLATFORM BACK IN FEB!
Anonymous Coward User ID: 951237 New Zealand 5/26/2010 5:31 AM
".....Everyone needs to read this. Aaron McCollum has sourced document proof from back in February (from the Minerals Management Service, signed by various members of Congress) warning BP of a catastrophic accident if they continue to dodge compliance regulations. Pass this around, email it to media outlets.. this is the smoking gun of culpability right here!
And to be clear, this is SPECIFICALLY PERTAINING to the Atlantis platform in the Gulf of Mexico - that's right - the one that blew up! Here we have it, folks. BP have blood on their hands - and they were warned about it. Here's the PDF file:
Please spread this far and wide.. to your Facebook friends, email to your colleagues and family.. we all deserve to know the truth. Aaron says he has many other documents he can bring out in the open. Let's bust this thing wide open!....."

Yet Congress and no other federal agency did anything. Wanna know why?
“If BP faces heavy federal scrutiny, it’s well-positioned to fight back: The London-based company has consistently spent top dollar to influence legislative and regulatory activity in Washington, D.C.,” the Center states.

Atlantis is not the one that is leaking, but it is 12X larger and HALF A KILOMETRE deeper"
Several comments relating to the name ATLANTIS, I missed the first time around. I too found the name interesting, particularly if this is an Illuminati "event" [which I have NO problem believing]. This supposedly is NOT the one that is leaking, however, or is it? Note above that Atlantis is deeper and presumably further out from shore. I wonder if Atlantis has anything to do with this:

The following is the letter I (Lewis Mohr)sent to Transocean this morning conveying my concerns that their Rig was possibly attacked from the air. [See the first picture] I believe a clear message from the bankers in "The City" of London was sent to the people of The United States of America that energy independence will not be tolerated.....
