7. But first they had to stand down until the "security risk" got high enough |
|
No army sent in to maintain order till - Day 5. Before that there were 300 NG in New Orleans.

I called it while Carol Costello and Chris Lawrence of CNN were runmimng a real time PSY-Op...police station under siege, rescue workers assailed, snipers shooting at helicopters, fires, explosions...
Rummys's special ops and "contractors" did well.
