"In 2001, FEMA warned that a hurricane striking New Orleans was one of the three most likely disasters in the U.S. But the Bush administration cut New Orleans flood control funding by 44 percent to pay for the Iraq war." http://service.spiegel.de/cache/international/0,1518,372455,00.html

This is the same Administration that claimed no one could ever imagine terrorists using hijacked planes as cruise missiles...in spite of a similar (foiled) plot to do just that to the Eiffel Tower in 1995...and a movie, Collateral Damage...that was in the filming process when the traedy of 9/11 happened...and the film had to wait a few months to be released, because the film's plot was too eerily similar to what had JUST HAPPENED.
So, if a similar plot was hatched and foiled, in 1995...and if Hollywood could dream up a 9/11 type attack, then why could not our government, whose very job it is TO dream up just such things in order to protect us from them??
The information was there pre-9//1. they chose to ignore it.
The information was there pre-Katrina. They chose to ignore it.
'Nuff said.
