OT--Farrakhan states levees *were* blown up.
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." ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Making this kind of accusation is akin to falsely yelling "fire" in a crowded theater. The man ought to put up proof...or be arrested for inciting a riot. |

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. |

Farrakhan is an extremist. As a guy firmly entrenched in the middle of the road (insert grin), sometimes I wish these radical characters would pipe down a bit. It gives the Limbaugh League and the Hannity Clan a really noisy target and the next thing you know the talk is going around, "Here's what liberals *all* think about this or that........." |

Are you are saying that you are 'middle of the road' politically and represent the majority of views/opinions of US citizens Chuck? |

Compared to Farrakhan, I am middle of the road. I don't care whether my views agree or disagree with the majority- I think for myself, and the majority do not think at all. BTW: How are you working on that apology you owe me? ;-) It will be forthcoming if and when I'm convinced that somebody else was sock-puppeting Skipper. There is compelling evidence that it was your handiwork, and no evidence so far that it was anybody else. |
