there seemed to be quite a few witnesses who thought it exploded somehow...

the force of the water would have caused an explosive reaction to an already weak levee. People and their conspiracy theories, *groan*
Everyone knew for years and years that the levees were not designed to stand against the force of this type of hurricane. The sheer force of the water was enough to burst through and bust up the levees as it did.

Hurricane winds caused the water to go over and eventually break the levies.

Credible witnesses say that they saw Karl Rove set the charges. They also say that John Roberts (now Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court) set off the charges with his cell phone after Rove left the area.

The storm surge from Hurricane Katrina and the torrential rains simply were too much for the aged levees to handle.

Flooding caused the levys to over run and fail. The hurricane caused the flooding as you know.

There are a number of video's of the levy breaks. They washed away because of the swell in the Gulf waters.

Oh my goodness, here we go again...distraction..distraction, what's your fraction....the levys broke because of poor construction and poor maintenance...the National, state and local government failed it's citizens, cause most of them are not tax payers...
do you think anything like that would happen in rich Manhattan, dude I live here...Ground zero cleanup started the next day. The government down there is so stupid, starting with the Governor who is afraid to do anything, or blames everyone for her lack of leadership.

Elvis lit some firecrackers on top of the levys, then aliens came in and dropped photon torpedoes on them.
Someone told me they saw them.

It broke because Nagin would listen to the Army Corps Of Engineers to have it reinforced

the waves from the hurricane
I am sure the force from it would have well sounded very dramatic. And also why were these fools there in the first place.
