Farrakhan's theory on why the levees broke
2005-09-14
Just to show the moonbat lunacy of all this ...
Minister Louis Farrakhan was in Charlotte Monday to rally support for his Millions More March. However, he did have some choice words about the response to Hurricane Katrina victims some of whom are staying at the Charlotte Coliseum.

Farrakhan's been traveling across the country to visit shelters like the one that is set up at the coliseum. He said he's not happy with the job the American Red Cross is doing.

He had harsh words for FEMA too. But that was just the warm up. Farrakhan also shared his thoughts on how the levee breached in the first place. "I heard from a very reliable source who saw a 25 foot deep crater under the levee breach. It may have been blown up to destroy the black part of town and keep the white part dry," Farrakhan said.

Gilton Balanos lived in the very neighborhood Farrakhan was talking about. "I think that's ludicrous," Balanos said. "When this happened we were caught by surprise. Individuals, the government and everybody were caught by surprise."

Farrakhan also said that the Red Cross’ response to the disaster was inadequate. Red Cross Spokesperson Pam Dagle said "there was no basis for the criticism." As for the issue of how the Red Cross spends money and on whom, Daigle said "the Red Cross’ books are open for anyone who wants to see the audits, who wants to see how we spend money."

"I'm sure some good is being done, but not enough to answer the cry." Farrakhan said.

Some evacuees who spoke to 6NEWS said they support Farrakhan and his look into what happened in New Orleans and other affected areas.

#14  Is he still paid off by the government as a "Religious leader"?

#13  What the H*ll is going on? How come nobody blames "zionists" for Katrina?

#12  And some people wonder why racial prejudice is alive and well in America.

#10  A friend of one of my daughters' spent a little time in jail last week, and reported that two black prisoners were seriously discussing the "hurricane machine" that had been used to strike the black folks in New Orleans.
Farrakhan is a racist demagogue, but is he leading, fabricating the lies himself; or is he following, and repeating back what people already say and want to hear a famous name say also?

#9  Ahem; an interesting theory indeed. I believe we would ALL be a lot better if the Reverend Sultan simply persued his classical violin hobby. I hear that he is quite good.

#5  Why do they let Farrakhan into the shelters to speak?

#4  I'm still working on the background research as I have time, but I'm still fairly sure that blowing a levee in the Ninth Ward won't do anything to save the rest of the city from rising water.

#3  October 17, 1995FARRAKHAN: Abraham Lincoln, the sixteenth president. Thomas Jefferson, the third president, and 16 and three make 19 again. What is so deep about this number 19? Why are we standing on the Capitol steps today? That number 19 -- when you have a nine you have a womb that is pregnant. And when you have a one standing by the nine, it means that there's something secret that has to be unfolded.
Farrakan 9/14/05:I heard from a very reliable source who saw a 25 foot deep crater under the levee breach.... Another enigma. Seven days in a week minus a day of rest is six days. When you subtract 6 from 25 you get 19. A 1 standing beside the 9 equals a dark dark secret. Thanks Louie. Not very helpful, but enlightening.

EQUALISM = even when you win, you lose> you know, VICTORY, or MacArthurian "NO SUBSTITUTE FOR VICTORY"???
