September 23, 2005 journal, this government is self destructing and its sin is sodomy no different than Sodom and Gomorrah 4000 years ago. There is a multitude of sins and too many to count as we collapse under the confusion.  An up rising of cities against the war.

An article in Times Examiner by Ben Graydon seems worth quoting "I suspect the events of last week will have more lasting impact on America than nine1one.   I received an e-mail...warning the gasoline pipeline that serves Texas, Ms, Ala, Fla, Ga, S.C., N.C., Va., West Va., Tn., N.J., and New York was not moving, filling terminals that fill the trucks that haul gas to stations would soon have nothing to haul.  Slowly the mainstream media corroborated this story, at least saying that the flow of gasoline had slowed. I did not run out and fill up my tank, I talked with others by phone and monitored via the Internet as a rush reminiscent of the early 70’s occurred, lining up cars down some streets as gasoline prices went from 240 to over $3 to almost $5 in some places, as some gas stations run out and had to close their doors. Two weeks ago, most of us were griping at gas over $2; but now we are thrilled to find it close to $3.  What happened?  What changed?  Is this all the unfortunate result of a natural catastrophe, or could something bigger be behind it?  Back in June, I viewed a television movie called ‘Oil Wars’. It depicted of all things, a hurricane of major proportions striking New Orleans.  The hurricane wiped out the oil derricks off the coast near the below sea level city and wreaked havoc on the docking stations where oil tankers inbound from the Middle East off load their petroleum cargoes to U.S. refin-eries. Watching events unfold this week, then was like deja vu all over again.  As if foll-owing a script, everything depicted in that movie just 3 months earlier was happening. The greatest damage in the city of New Orleans did not come about from direct contact from Hurricane Katrina, but from the failure of the levee system that keeps the sea out.  A little on-line research reveals that the plan for reinforcing the levees in the face of a hurricane involves the Army Corps of Engineers and the National Guard, so why did they fail to respond?  Because most of them are in Iraq fighting a war to protect U.S. interests in the free flow of oil.  So the levees should not have failed.  Furthermore, a friend who used to live in New Orleans advises me that the levees that failed were the strongest levees and that failure at those points by natural means was very unlikely.  Also, he advised me, some canals that were breached could not have been breached by natural means but only by explosives under human control.  Another reason cited for the failed response to shore up the levees was the failure of streets and bridges needed to access them, which given the many demolitions of structures by means obviously different from the stories told us by government, Oklahoma City, WTC towers, Pentagon could raise more questions in our minds.  What of the storm itself?  Who has not noticed the unusually high number of hur-ricanes in recent years?  One possible explanation could be the High Frequency Active Auroral Research Program (HAARP), a government program in Alaska that many believe is working on ways to create and control whether patterns to military advantage.  Online research reveals there was a huge spike in HAARP transmissions just before Katrina made landfall in Florida?  Is it just a coincidence?  Do your own research and draw your own conclusions.  Consider what is going on in New Orleans right now-roving bands of armed looters raping, robbing and shooting at police, etc., but consider what precipitated this: human refuges by the 1000’s herded together like cattle in a huge sports arena-a veritable oven in many ways-treated like animals, then denied the right to egress; police participat-ing in looting themselves; complete retreat by federal authorities task to deal with these”.
