NEW ORLEANS – BP and the Obama administration face mounting complaints that they are ignoring foreign offers of equipment and making little use of the fishing boats and volunteers available to help clean up what may now be the biggest spill ever in the Gulf of Mexico.
The Coast Guard said there have been 107 offers of help from 44 nations, ranging from technical advice to skimmer boats and booms. But many of those offers are weeks old, and only a small number have been accepted. The vast majority are still under review, according to a list kept by the State Department. ...Read more: http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/us_gulf_oil_spill

Scripture study Revelation 16 and Acts 2- Note, this is for biblical last days reference purposes, not for exclaiming the oil spill situation, that is currently taking place, is for certain prophecy.
Revelation 16 (NLT)
1 Then I heard a mighty voice from the Temple say to the seven angels, “Go your ways and pour out on the earth the seven bowls containing God’s wrath.”
2 So the first angel left the Temple and poured out his bowl on the earth, and horrible, malignant sores broke out on everyone who had the mark of the beast and who worshiped his statue.
“You are just, O Holy One, who is and who always was,
because you have sent these judgments.
6 Since they shed the blood
of your holy people and your prophets,
you have given them blood to drink.
It is their just reward.”
7 And I heard a voice from the altar,[a] saying,
“Yes, O Lord God, the Almighty,
your judgments are true and just.”
8 Then the fourth angel poured out his bowl on the sun, causing it to scorch everyone with its fire. 9 Everyone was burned by this blast of heat, and they cursed the name of God, who had control over all these plagues. They did not repent of their sins and turn to God and give him glory.
10 Then the fifth angel poured out his bowl on the throne of the beast, and his kingdom was plunged into darkness. His subjects ground their teeth in anguish, 11 and they cursed the God of heaven for their pains and sores. But they did not repent of their evil deeds and turn to God.
12 Then the sixth angel poured out his bowl on the great Euphrates River, and it dried up so that the kings from the east could march their armies toward the west without hindrance. 13 And I saw three evil[b] spirits that looked like frogs leap from the mouths of the dragon, the beast, and the false prophet. 14 They are demonic spirits who work miracles and go out to all the rulers of the world to gather them for battle against the Lord on that great judgment day of God the Almighty.
15 “Look, I will come as unexpectedly as a thief! Blessed are all who are watching for me, who keep their clothing ready so they will not have to walk around naked and ashamed.”
16 And the demonic spirits gathered all the rulers and their armies to a place with the Hebrew name Armageddon.[c]
17 Then the seventh angel poured out his bowl into the air. And a mighty shout came from the throne in the Temple, saying, “It is finished!” 18 Then the thunder crashed and rolled, and lightning flashed. And a great earthquake struck—the worst since people were placed on the earth. 19 The great city of Babylon split into three sections, and the cities of many nations fell into heaps of rubble. So God remembered all of Babylon’s sins, and he made her drink the cup that was filled with the wine of his fierce wrath. 20 And every island disappeared, and all the mountains were leveled. 21 There was a terrible hailstorm, and hailstones weighing seventy-five pounds[d] fell from the sky onto the people below. They cursed God because of the terrible plague of the hailstorm.

3 Then the second angel poured out his bowl on the sea, and it became like the blood of a corpse. And everything in the sea died.
4 Then the third angel poured out his bowl on the rivers and springs, and they became blood. 5 And I heard the angel who had authority over all water saying,“You are just, O Holy One, who is and who always was,

On an end note, The most important thing to remember, Jesus IS coming soon, not to worry, pray always for all things and share the good news...
Acts 2:39-41 (NIV)
39The promise is for you and your children and for all who are far off—for all whom the Lord our God will call." 40With many other words he warned them; and he pleaded with them, "Save yourselves from this corrupt generation." 41Those who accepted his message were baptized, and about three thousand were added to their number that day.

July 2nd: after posting this blog I heard some debate that this is not prophecy as described, I don't think it is a ful-filled prophecy myself and I am not saying it is so... only, maybe.
I wanted to share my response, again God's blessings with you.

July 2nd: after posting this blog I heard some debate that this is not prophecy as described, I don't think it is a ful-filled prophecy myself and I am not saying it is so... only, maybe.
I wanted to share my response, again God's blessings with you.
My concern is what God is doing, allowing, and our need to pray, and not worry or debate.
I believe God can allow us to fall from our actions which then is his say so, his doing or allowance for our sinful ways, and possibly God's wrath as he is just to allow for those that turn against him or do not repent from wickedness. On a side note, I think Christians seem to know, even though we don't like to discuss it much, demons are at work and stronger, it seems- at least I feel personally. In Revelations 16:3 We don't know that the "flask poured out" by the second angel isn't the allowance of the oil to come out as it did. I can see why some may dismiss this as prophecy, but I think we may be watching prophecy "in the works".
It is alright to me if someone disagrees with it being prophecies, for what I think- it is more of a warning of the time frame we are in. And the dreams I have about things before they happen correlate with the last days. (Which is at times, hard for me to share this with others.)
"In the Last Days" we hear, and I feel his warning spiritually. Maybe it's sounds strange to some, but, it is personal, that I feel what I am saying. I can't say IT IS this now, but I think it COULD be the start, but only depending on the time frame of what we see and how everything pans out over time? I'm not going to debate what I haven't seen fulfilled.
We don't see everything at once, just like "everything in all the oceans died". This could be years and years so other things could also then be seen as it too unfolds. Basically, how do we see it and when? The vision based on 1st, and 2nd angel etc. The first is talking about those with the mark of the beast had plague and sores and worshiped his statue- that could be many people who worship Satan or? and could have diseases? Maybe we don't understand it, and it hasn't panned out in our time frame compared to God's no time frame. I'm not certain.
This description is very accurate actually only in a beginning stage if it gets worse and does not stop, that's how you know. "The second angel poured out his flask upon the oceans, and they became like the watery blood of a dead man; and everything in all the oceans died." (The Living Bible). So, only we can wait to see if and how the first two of the scripture pans out and then the 3rd-7th angel tasks.
Some of the oil spill including underwater (I believe it is green lit underwater because the sunlight could not get through from the surface).
