The Levee Boards should be held accountable for their failure to inspect and make sure the Leeves were not in disrepair.They also share the blame alongside the USACE.

[LeveesOrg]

Pre -Katrina, the levee inspections were a shared responsibility between officials from the Corps of Engineers, the state Department of Transportation and Development, and the Orleans Levee Board.

But those inspections could not have detected design flaws deep underground or contracting flaws where levees were filled with erodible sand instead of good Louisiana clay.

The responsibility for the levees not performing as they should have lies with the USACE - John Barry, Author Rising Tide

Statement by Major Jakob Bruhl, USACE on this discovery:

...If, as you say, Ms. Rosenthal (and I trust your information and acknowledge that you are certainly more informed about this case than I am), the commenter on your website was telling lies, than that is completely unacceptable, does not help the cause at all, and discredits our Corps We, as public servants, must conduct ourselves with unquestioned integrity....

SAD news to all parties: whatever you do, New Orleans is a doomed city & with rising temparatures and changing climate the government would be silly to put money into projects like building up. people wake up and move away from the sea or the delta. you're doomed. government needs the money to stabilize our climate & clouds, go help yourself, get to the country &way above sea-level, otherwise you are doomed & you are crying for government money like sheeple. get outta the region. NO FUTURE.

New Orleans is not a coastal city, it's a port city, and it's right where it belongs. In fact, 39 of the 50 largest American cities lie on a floodplain.

With logic like Lightalights, we might as well relocate everyone who lives in an area where events can be described by a scale, be it Saffir Simpson, Richter or Fujita.

Be careful, you may be labeled a conspiracy nut. When criminals run the government, don't expect them to play by the rules.

we really need an international network where we all can work together to expose these corrupt individuals that are destroying society and nations. There are so many people trying to expose the truth but they all need to work together

You can bet your ass the 'Leeves' people are hardcore democrat-liberals. Thats all I need to know. And what did the posters to her crappy site say that was wrong?

What kind of fucking moron lives in potentially deadly areas? Has it happened before? Recently? oh, it has huh? Bodies floating down the street you say? Well...imagine that. And all the footage of wonderful minorities 'shopping', like that black cop, for free shoes and clothes AFTER Katrina hit? Fuck them all....drowned.

can you go to jail for this ???

It might be better if Levees.org gets someone to publicly represent them who doesn't have a speech impediment... Just a suggestion since they're already trying to ridicule the organization.
