>Los Angeles, Alta California - September 7, 2005 - (ACN) There were
>numerous incidents that occurred during and immediately after Katrina
>struck that point to the "unthinkable." It now appears that a
>sophisticated plan was implemented that utilized the "cover of a
>hurricane" to first destroy and then take over the City of New Orleans?
>As the world watched the events unfolding, one could not help think
>that something was terribly afoot concerning the rescue by FEMA of the
>city's poor and
>predominate Black population.
>
>It seems that a well laid out plan was put into effect to grab valuable
>
>real estate from well established but poverty stricken Black families
>of New Orleans?
>What is being implemented now is nothing less than a sophisticated
>scheme to purge and ethnically cleanse what Whites have termed "Black
>and 'welfare bloated' New Orleans." Among the most telling anomalies
>pointing to something terribly afoot is the gun battle, killing 5, that
>occurred at the breeched levy between the New Orleans Police Department
>and, what have now been identified as US military agents.
>
>An Associated Press report, which has now disappeared, stated that at
>least five USA Defense Department personnel where shot dead by New
>Orleans police officers in the proximity of the breeched levy. A
>spokesman for the Army Corps of
>Engineers said later that those killed
>were "federal contractors" on their way to "repair" a canal. The
>"contractors" were on their way to launch barges into Lake
>Pontchartrain, in an operation to "fix" the 17th Street Canal,
>according to the Army Corps of Engineers spokesman. Deputy Police Chief
>W.J. Riley
>of New Orleans later reported that his policemen had shot at eight
>suspicious people near the breeched levy, killing five or six. Who
>were these "military agents" that were killed by the police near the
>17th Street Canal breeched levy and what were they doing there? Why did
>the New Orleans police find it necessary to shoot and kill 5 or 6 of
>them? No one is saying anything and it appears that the news story has
>now been swept under the rug. Were these US Department of Defense
>personnel a Special Forces group or Navy Seals with top
>secret orders
>to sabotage the levy? There are verifiable reports that at least 100
>New Orleans police officers have disappeared from the face of the earth
>and that two have committed suicide.
>
>Could these be policemen that died defending the levy against sabotage
>by "federal contractors"? Another telling incident that points to a
>"nefarious plan" is what New Orleans Mayor Ray Nagin said at the height
>of the crisis. He said publicly, "I fear the CIA may take me out!"
>Mayor Nagin, a Black, said this twice. He told a reporter for the
>Associated Press: "If the CIA slips me something and next week you
>don't see me, you'll all know what happened." Later he told
>interviewers for CNN on a live broadcast that he feared the "CIA might
>take me out." What does Mayor Ray Nagin know and why does he fear the
>CIA?
>
>In an interview by WWL TV,
>Mayor Nagin complained vociferously that
>Louisiana National Guard Blackhawk helicopters were being stopped from
>dropping sandbags to plug the levy soon after it breeched. There is
>evidence that no repairs were allowed on the levy until after New
>Orleans was totally flooded!
>
>Many civilian groups who were attempting to aid people trapped in their
>attics, on their roofs and at the Superdome are reporting that FEMA,
>other federal agents and the US military essentially "stopped" them
>from doing so.
>Convoys that were organized by truckers and carrying "food and water"
>were blocked by agents of the federal government on the highways and
>roads leading to New Orleans. The American Red Cross, in addition,
>encountered numerous incidents and has made formal complaints.
>
>A private ham radio network that deployed throughout the hurricane
>
>ravished region reported that the airwaves were being "jammed" making
>it impossible to communicate emergency information. Churches, hospitals
>and other essential community groups reported that the first thing that
>the US military did, when they arrived, was to cut their telephone
>lines and confiscate communications devices. We all witnessed news
>reports and heard statements by flood victims concerning the behavior
>of the US military. Many Black families complained that
>military vehicles did not stop to assist them but just drove by. One
>news report showed military personnel playing cards inside a barrack
>while Black citizens were dying of thirst and hunger.
>
>Today, it is very revealing how the federal government is handling the
>disaster.
>They want every Black out of New Orleans and those who insist on
>staying in their homes will
>be removed by force. The government,
>through some media, is utilizing scare tactics to cleanse New Orleans
>of all Blacks. They want no witnesses and this will make the "land
>grab" a lot easier to undertake.
>One scare tactic is calling the flood water "a horrid toxic soup of
>feces a rotting flesh of corpses". The military thugs are now getting
>tough with Black families that have owned their old but beloved homes
>for many generations. Mr. Rufus Johnson, a family patriarch who lives
>in the French Quarter, said in an interview, "The army has given me an
>ultimatum to leave or suffer the consequences of a forced eviction. I
>do not understand . My entire family and I survived Katrina and now
>they want to throw me out of the home we have had for generations". Mr.
>Johnson lives in a neighborhood where the flood has subsided and his
>home is not
>heavily damaged yet FEMA wants him out!
>
>The fact that Vice President Dick Cheney is heavily involved in the
>FEMA
>operations from behind the scenes is very troublesome. Cheney and his
>cronies at Halliburton are in line for the lucrative contracts to
>"reconstruct a New Orleans". Deals are already being made with a Las
>Vegas business group to construct multi-million dollar casinos in the
>Big Easy on prime real estate that was owned by Black families. Whites
>throughout history have been notorious "land grabbers".
>
>In the USA they first confiscated land that belonged to American
>Indians. Most of the Indians ended up in worthless tracts of land
>called "reservations". The largest "land grab", however, was the theft
>of Aztlan. This occurred soon after the Mexican-American War. In Alta
>California , vast "Ranchos" were stolen from the
>Californios through a
>variety of scams. A favorite ploy was to impose extremely heavy land
>taxes on the Mexicans and then foreclosing on the properties. The land
>was then given or sold at very low prices to the Forty Niners who came
>in large hordes to Alta California during the so called "Gold Rush" of
>1849.
