Farrakhan is now stating that the levees *were* (not "may have been")
blown
up to flood the black areas and save the white areas from flooding
around
New Orleans.


"Mayor Nagin told us there was a 25-foot crater under the levee,"
Farrakhan
explained, before cautioning that the New Orleans Democrat "didn't say
there
was a bomb. He just said there was a crater."
Farrakhan then added: "I say they blew it [up]."

"Divers inspecting the ruptured levee walls surrounding New Orleans
found
something that piqued their interest - burn marks on underwater debris
chunks from the broken levee wall," Farrakhan said.

"One diver - a member of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers - saw the
burn
marks and knew immediately what caused them."


Well, debris chunks means it's a brick or concrete as the delta is all
sand. So it's probably part of a concrete wall from a demolished house.
Seems most of the buildings in that area are destroyed by fire (pre
Katrina). That would be my first guess unless the chunk was found in a
tree. sigh Besides we all saw the water flowing over the levee walls.


And when a levee breaks there is always a huge cavern gouged by the water
flowing through. One if the places I fish in the Sacramento Delta is lower
sherman Island. A lake now that is about 12' deep. But the levee break is
50' deep.
