I've been hearing since about a week after it hit that they've been reconsidering reclassifying it; in fact I said that several times in this thread.
I never found out they bumped it up from a TS to a CAT 1 until last week when I was looking into the Gaston timeline! In fact, I haven't even seen the name Gaston mentioned in this thread! So there!
p.s. I know you're talking about Katrina 😛
What Has Katrina Taught Us?
I must warn you that what you're about to read is not the usual emotive op ed blubbering on about the human tragedy Katrina has become. There's enough of that already available on CNN, and repeating it doesn't help you. My concern is purely what you and I, possibly unaffected by Katrina, can learn from global events such as this.
Governments Lie. Almost without exception, those responsible for planning for a crisis like Katrina have claimed that the consequences could not be predicted. In May 2002 FEMA hosted a 2-day National Flood Conference in New Orleans, where the consequences of just such a flood were discussed in detail. In October 2004, National Geographic published an article describing the effect of a Category 4 storm on New Orleans precisely. In January 2005, Craig E. Colten published An Unnatural Metropolis, in which he quotes a New Orleans resolution sent to the US Congress circa 1819 saying “it is an established fact that the Port of New Orleans would not exist, that the whole city would soon be submerged if the waters of the Mississippi were not confined by levees.” The consequences of Katrina couldn't have been known beforehand? Hogwash.
Governments' Interests Nullify Their Citizen's Interests. Do not waste valuable time and energy blaming Bush for the disaster; he is only hired help for the war-makers. The uninformed are proclaiming their concerns vociferously at the apparent lack of response to Katrina. The unspoken question is, "If the government can't handle a predicted natural disaster what would happen after an unexpected terror attack?" This is precisely the question that war-makers WANT asked, since the obvious answer is more government intervention. Keep this in mind: the government's interest in Katrina is not to save lives - it is to gain experience and learn lessons for the next inevitable 'terror attack'. New Orleans is simply a rehearsal for an event which will dwarf Katrina in the loss of human lives. Sound far-fetched? Why all the evidence that Katrina was engineered by man?
Modern Day Wealth is a Figment of Imagination. Unfortunately those who most need to understand this concept will never read this newsletter, but I must restate the obvious. The value of your real estate is only determined by the willingness of a buyer to purchase your property. Ask any home owner in New Orleans. The value of their investment has disappeared overnight, and will never be reclaimed. While Katrina may not have affected you directly, the next calamitous event will likely strip billions of dollars as the economy collapses under it's already overweight mass of personal and government debt. Noah started building his ark many years before the rains came. When will you cash in your investment and sell your home? Remember, it was only the third little piggy who was able to predict correctly the behavior of the wolf - the enemy, which tries to seduce and trap us.
To wrap up the discussion of Katrina, there are dozens of examples of flood prevention programs being cancelled years ago, the purposeful prevention of aid and the planned government inaction. Only the stubborn will not accept that Katrina is purely a dry run for the next staged attack, and the planned New World Order takeover in America. Bush himself, on September 15, called for a review of "emergency plans in every major city in America." We know what that means - Martial Law is coming with the next event, either man-made or natural. The intensity of the damage done by each incident will gradually be increased, so as not to raise the ire of too many people at once.
If the 2001 FEMA Report, which described the three most likely disasters in U.S. is a harbinger of coming attractions, an earthquake in California is next.
Be skeptical of anything you read online, including what you read on ThreeWorldWars.com. Challenge everything you read, and send it through your own truth filter. You know instinctively when someone's blowing smoke. It isn't necessarily what is said, but how it's framed and presented. Anything out of whack needs to be investigated.
that's all until next time!
