The Louisiana native who was the commander of task force Katrina has some very definitive ideas about what should be done with this oil disaster. Lieutenant General Russel Honoré says World War III needs to be declared in an effort to win this battle of the oil. He also likens BP to a "mugger" and then "having the burglar determine what the compensation is."
