RAISON D'ETRE: DOJ charges on BP Oil spill


It has been approximately two years since the Deepwater Horizon oil spillbecame one of America's worst spills in US history and it seems it won't goaway. Recently, Hurricane Isaac uncovered oil that was previously covered up by British Petroleum, the company held responsible for the environmental catastrophe. Tar balls washed up on the shores of Louisiana and Alabama and now the Department of Justice has publicly battered BP over their cleaning efforts.Greg Palast, investigative journalist, brings us more on the motive behind the DOJ's late criticism.

What are the motives behind this new drive against BP by the US department of justice and what are the intended consequences?
