Levee 'Explosives Residue'
Story Remains Unconfirmed
By Jim Moore
9-11-5
Note - This story below is racing around the net and we present it *only* as something to be so noted. 'Well placed sources' and unnamed sources 'speaking on conditions of anonymity' have essentially no credibility from a journalistic standpoint. Unless one of the principals steps out of the shadows and comes forward with proof of the allegations below, this story must be considered as just another internet rumor.
IF, in fact, the levee was initially breached with an explosive device, it would have been a very easy task to accomplish. One underwater demolition expert (a former Navy SEAL, for example) working undercover of night, or of the passing hurricane, could have slipped in and out of the area, unseen, in a matter of minutes. Interesting to contemplate how just one person could have triggered a $100 billion dollar disaster and mass murder. But such are the times in which we live. -ed

Explosions were heard and have been reported. The cause of those explosions, based on what I have read, is left to speculation.
Have you noticed where the breaks ocurred? Spacing is more than ironic.

It's your perogative to limit who you speak to on the street and what you read on the internet. To limit one's exposure to all information has never seemed intelligent to me. Certainly no one is twisting your arm.
While on the subject, do you have any information that disprove the report?

Oh jeeperz, you are right, it is a good use of one's time to go to the most unreliable sources on the internet and invest time reading about bullshit ...
good one!
Look at all the quakes on this forum who quote experts from the most off the wall sites.
Do you invest your time believing all of it, as a quest for knowledge and not limiting your exposure to anything? From anyone?
TheWho:
If this story had even a little bit of credability the democrats would be all over it and it would be on every news station in a second. Jesse Jackson would provide photos of a white guy in a navy seal outfit as a back drop.
Troll Control:
The bottom line is that "news" is supposed to be objectively verifiable and needs to be verified by the publisher.
This story is no more verifiable than "Martians did it." Can you PROVE they DIDN'T? No, of course you can't, but does that mean they DID?
When you see a story of dubious veracity, look at the publisher (a KNOWN quack), and check the sources (there are none). Why would anyone invest a scintilla more of their time to prove that it's NOT true?
