Huh? Wat is dit nu weer voor smerig zaakje? En wat heeft Condoleezza Rice er mee te maken?

"Trek je eigen conclusie", zegt de britse oud-minister Michael Meacher in deze 2 Vandaag-documentaire van gisteren. Meacher en de duitse oud-minister Andreas von Bulow kwamen onafhankelijk tot de conclusie dat er met de "War on Terror' iets helemaal niet in de haak is. Laat je tinfoil hat maar in de kast want de bewijzen zijn keihard (denk ik). � Via Sargasso

[Update] Quote(s) van de dag

Ook Colin "I'm not reading this. This is Bullshit" Powell irriteert zich aan de manier waarop de hulpverlening na Katrina op gang is gekomen.

Dit is z� w��r...

De volgende hel wordt het vluchtelingenkamp in Oklahoma: You can't bring any clothes in. [...] We lugged the bags of clothes back to the car. [...] We lugged the bags of female products back to the car. [...] We then started lugging in our food products. [...] they will remain within the camp for the next 5 months. [...] We then lug all food products requiring cooking back to the car. [...] she must take all the breakfast cereal back. [...] the vegetables and fruit. "You'll have to take that back as well." Erg aardig om al die spullen te doneren, maar volgens de FEMA veroorzaken ze alleen maar ongeregeldheden. - Above Top Secret

"a Gretna Sheriff showed up, jumped out of his patrol vehicle, aimed his gun at our faces, screaming, "Get off the fucking freeway" [...] As we retreated, the sheriff loaded up his truck with our food and water. [...] The two young guardsmen apologized for the limited response of the Louisiana guards. They explained that a large section of their unit was in Iraq [...] The airport had become another Superdome. [...] flights were delayed for several hours while George Bush landed briefly at the airport for a photo op. [...] We were placed on buses and driven to a large field where we were forced to sit for hours and hours. Some of the buses did not have air-conditioners. In the dark, hundreds if us were forced to share two filthy overflowing porta-potties. Those who managed to make it out with any possessions (often a few belongings in tattered plastic bags) we were subjected to two different dog-sniffing searches. [...] Most of us had not eaten all day because our C-rations had been confiscated at the airport because the rations set off the metal detectors. Yet, no food had been provided to the men, women, children, elderly, disabled as they sat for hours waiting to be "medically screened" to make sure we were not carrying any communicable diseases. [...] Throughout, the official relief effort was callous, inept, and racist." - EMS Network

Drie studenten van Duke university, North Carolina wisten enkele dagen geleden met valse perskaarten langs de National Guard te glippen en door te dringen tot het centrum van New Orleans. Na twee 'missies' wisten ze seven mensen uit de stad te evacueren en met familie te herenigen. - Herald Sun Durham

Ook een manier om orkaanslachtoffers acuut van de verdrinkingsdood en verhongering te redden: " Republican leaders said they were considering an economic stimulus package that probably would include tax relief for hurricane victims." - LA Times

Elf republikeinen hebben zojuist tegen de goedkeuring voor het reddingspakket van 51 G$ gestemd. Lees er meer over in Team Hate America van Oliver Willis

Whoopsi Gras van Mark Fiore - Katrina-tijdlijn � Nog een FEMA-fuckup: evacuatie naar de verkeerde Charleston � Brandweermannen moeten folders uitdelen ��Senator: "niet evacueren [geen auto hebben] moet strafbaar worden" � Heb je hulp nodig van de FEMA, maar gebruik je Mac OS X of Linux? Ga maar lekker dood bel ons dan (als de telefoon werkt) � John Steward van de Daily Show is net terug van vakantie: "Heb ik iets gemist?" (excellente tijdlijn)

[Update] Volwassen vent in tranen

Ooggetuige van major FEMA fuck-up doet zijn verhaal in dit filmpje van choco.

Ellendedumptreintje

Rove (handing Bush a 4x6 card with instructions written on it in sharpie pen): Ok, this bit is really important: as you walk towards the cameras, make sure you get real close to the firefighters, and as they're about to take the picture, start rolling your sleeves up. It's kind of allegorical.

Bush: Ali who?

Rove (slaps forefead): never mind. Just do what it says on the fucking card, ok?

"As specific orders began arriving to the firefighters in Atlanta, a team of 50 Monday morning quickly was ushered onto a flight headed for Louisiana. The crew's first assignment: to stand beside President Bush as he tours devastated areas." - Salt Lake Tribune

" On Monday, some firefighters stuck in the staging area at the Sheraton peeled off their FEMA-issued shirts and stuffed them in backpacks, saying they refuse to represent the federal agency." - Salt Lake Tribune

"For four days, a C-130 transport plane ready to lift emergency supplies to Katrina victims has stood idle at the Satenas air force base in southern Sweden. [...] "We have to get some kind of signal (from the United States) in the next few days," said Karin Viklund of the Swedish Rescue Services Agency. "We really hope we will get it." " - CBS News

"a man from the Evergreen Foundation was on air spinning the myth that the President had to "beg" the Governor of Louisiana to take action." - TPM Cafe

"Fox News [...] report[ed] that Nagin had proceeded with the mandatory evacuation "only after President Bush insisted that he do so." [feeding a myth] that Bush's phone call triggered the decision to evacuate." - Media Matters

"All of the reporters are turning [their] TV trucks around. Things are so bad, Bush is now censoring all reporting from NOLA." - Operation Flashlight

"Bush said Tuesday he will oversee an investigation into what went wrong and why - in part to be sure that the country would withstand more storms or even a weapons of mass destruction attack." - MSNBC Video

Nog niet doodziek van deze ellende? Houd je emmertje gereed voor meer ellende.
