Does anyone believe someone blew up the levies in New Orleans?

Question

The new Spike Lee flick shown on HBO about Katrina has a few people who claimed they heard blasts just before the levies broke. Does anyone out there believe that someone in New Orleans made these levies break so the wealthy section of New Orleans wouldn't flood?

Answer 1

Ha ha!!! Of course, they were blown up by the Army Corps Of Engineers (COE) and they were helped by the citizens of the greater New Orleans area. They started by not building the levees to proper specifications, knowing this would cause them to 'blow' in a hurricane. The people of the city helped by not taking any action of their own to ensure that such an important task (maybe for New Orleans THE most important) was handled correctly and afterwards managed correctly.

I live in New Orleans so I am one of those people that simply assumed that the levees would hold because the COE said so. I guess I am a bit of an idiot for that. I don't think anyone ever really thought that a government agency could screw up that badly and we have to have some faith in government, right?

Smart people will not be fooled again by the COE.

Levies In New Orleans

Answer 3

CNN reported at about 1pm EDT August 29th 2005, while the hurricane was crossing the New Orleans area, that the Corps of Engineers stated that they were setting off explosives in some of the levees to relieve some of the pressure on the system. Millions of us heard the broadcasts. But then it was yanked and never heard again even though several times that hour the news was repeated.

Answer 4

Yes of course the levies were blown up. It was the conspiracy of the aliens that were causing the Hurricane Katrina. They exploded the levies. That they did it with the micro casam Lighting bomb. It was done exactly when the barge hit one of the wall of the levy to hide the blast.

That is why many people are missing as the aliens abducted them for research.

Answer 5

I believe Katrina blew up the levees. It actually Blew them over to be more precise. Well washed them out would be most accurate. Or would it be a combination of right time right place on levees built by U.S. Army Corps of Engineers and monitored by Orleans levee board? Who knows, I just know no one wanted all this mess to happen, at least no one who lives in New Orleans.

Answer 6

Blasts could've been anything...trees snapping, things banging around, etc. They knew that the levies could break long before Katrina hit. They chose not to do anything about them. Everything that happens in this country is not a conspiracy. Things do just happen sometimes.

Answer 7

If you're hearing blasts during a hurricane with 130 mph winds, you shouldn't be there!!!

Don't believe these morons. Don't be gullible. NOLA was warned about a hurricane of this magnitude causing such catasrophy for decades and they barely did a thing about it, including cheap, ineffective levees. No one blew up anything.

Answer 8

Well, there goes more fodder for yet another conspiracy.
The blasts they were probably hearing were power transformers blowing, propane tanks exploding or any number of other events common during a Category 4 hurricane.

Answer 9

You're kidding right? The last stupid rumor like that I heard was that it was missiles that destroyed the Twin Towers.

Some people want to believe just about anything don't they.

Answer 10

no one blew them up have u ever heard the power of 100 mph winds and thousands of gallons of water blowing through a five foot thick cement wall i'd think it would be quite a loud noise
