[Flight Bringer]

You are moving the goal posts again Oliver , we were talking about why the rescuers didnt go in earlier to New Orleans and suddenly you bring the military into it . I dont feel that a military invasion of New Orleans would have been beneficiary to anyone , also a military manoeveur of that magnitude would have taken time to organise . Oliver, you watch far too many Hollywood movies , your realms of reality have been distorted . The soldiers would have needed boats, accommodation, food , water, equipment ,etc etc and considering the gung ho mentality of the US armed forces , an invasion of New Orleans would not have been beneficiary.
     The water being too high and armed locals on the rampage are valid reasons for rescuers not going in , buses dont work under water , they would have gotten stranded and the rescuers would have then needed rescuing . You also cant send rescuers into an unsafe environment , there were gunman shooting at anyone in authority and there was also the risk of water born diseases .
      You do seem somewhat detached from reality Oliver , would you have liked to have seen a dream team of Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis and Tom Cruise make an instant rescue? Maybe Superman could have held the water back ? maybe Jesus could have came and turned the water into wine? Why couldn't George Bush have walked across the water and feed the 5000 in the gym hall?
