Subject: JUDGE SAYS: KATRINA DID NOT FLOOD NEW ORLEANS KATRINA DID NOT FLOOD NEW ORLEANS - It was the result of Incompetent work by the US ARMY CORPS of ENGINEERS.

Duval awarded the plaintiffs $720,000, or about $170,000 each, but the decision could eventually make the government vulnerable to a much larger payout. http://www.google.com/hostednews/ap/article/ALeqM5iIy4xSxWMklRKM-ko9fXC2sW3_XgD9C2ANT01 ====== video: America Betrayed - the movie trailer http://www.brasschecktv.com/page/597.html New Orleans: A Geopolitical Prize By George Friedman http://www.stratfor.com/new_orleans_geopolitical_prize New Orleans - Still Under Water http://www.gregpalast.com/new-orleans-still-under-water-a-buzzflash-interview ====== From: Kathy Subject: Re: America Betrayed | New Orleans See: Floodwalls Stuffed with Newspaper-- http://www.wnd.com/index.php?fa=PAGE.view&pageId=62741 Also: Army Corps to Cut Down Trees Near Levees-- "Ironic the corps wants to remove trees when vegetation is often credited with streambank stabilization." http://bluelivingideas.com/topics/freshwater-ecosystems/army-corps-engineers-plans-cut-trees-levees/
