How Bush drowned New Orleans
by Greg Palast
Excerpt:
"By midnight on Monday, the White House knew. Monday night I was at the state
Emergency Operations Center and nobody was aware that the levees had breeched. Nobody.”
The charge is devastating: That, on August 29, 2005, the White House withheld from the state police the info that New Orleans was about to flood.
The whistle-blower is Dr. Ivor van Heerden, deputy director of
the LSU Hurricane Center, the chief technician advising the state on saving lives during Katrina.
He charged that the White House, FEMA and the Army Corp hid, for critical hours, their discovery that the levees surrounding New Orleans were cracking, about to burst and drown the city.
Dr. van Heerden said, “Fifteen hundred people drowned. That’s the bottom line.”
They could have survived Hurricane Katrina. But they got no mercy from Hurricane George.(In accordance with Title 17 U.S.C.
