Rita leaves US with $6bn clean-up bill and fuel crisis
By Rupert Cornwell, in Port Arthur, Texas
Published: 26 September 2005

Already struggling with soaring energy prices, the US is facing further fuel and
petrol shortages in the wake of Hurricane Rita - even though the storm proved
far less devastating to the Gulf region, the heart of the US oil industry, than
Katrina four weeks ago.

Key installations around Houston, America's oil capital, appear to have escaped
largely unscathed, as Rita veered to the east in the 24 hours before it made
landfall early on Saturday.

The hurricane, which hit the coast with winds of up to 120mph, left a million
people without power, caused widespread flooding and destruction - and left a
clean-up bill likely to top $6bn (£3.4bn). But that is a pittance compared to
the $40bn of insured damage from Katrina, which killed more than 1,000 people.

Remarkably, not a single death had been directly attributed to Rita yesterday.
"We didn't get the 'down-to-the-foundations' devastation you saw in Mississippi
after Katrina," said Rick Perry, the Texas Governor.

There were indirect fatalities, however. A Mississippi woman was killed by a
tornado spawned by the storm, following the deaths of 24 residents of a Houston
nursing home who died in a bus fire as they were being taken to safety on
Friday.

Relieved state and local authorities said the minimal death toll was largely due
to the evacuations they had ordered before the storm struck. From Galveston and
Houston the west, to the Cajun swamplands of south-western Louisiana, the coast
had become a virtual ghost land as the storm drew near.

In Port Arthur, an oil city of 57,000 people and the home town of rock legend
Janis Joplin, almost everyone took the advice to evacuate. The police and city
manager's office set up shop at a Holiday Inn two miles from the centre of town,
which was under five feet of water in some areas.

"I guess we'll be able to go back on Tuesday," said Steve Fitzgibbons, the city
manager. As he spoke in the hotel's unlit lobby, a sheriff wearing a
bullet-proof vest and carrying a shotgun left the building to patrol against
looters. By yesterday, several had been arrested, forcing police to set up a
makeshift jail in the hotel bar.

In the town itself, many streets were impassable, because of fallen trees and
power lines. In some places, there was the odour of leaking gas. Few buildings
were unscathed. Some houses had their roofs peeled off, motels had walls torn
away and billboards and debris were strewn across highways. Even so, "it could
have been a lot worse," Mr Fitzgibbons declared.

The hardest hit area was the low-lying Cajun country across the border in
Louisiana, where teams were searching for people in need of rescue. But in
Louisiana too, Rita's punch did not match up to the fears beforehand.

In New Orleans, officials were confident that weakened levees which were
breached again as the city felt the effects of Rita could be repaired quickly.
The affected areas moreover were empty of people, and most of the flooded homes
would have had to be razed anyway. Yesterday Mayor Ray Nagin was again urging
inhabitants to re-turn to dry parts of the city.

Logistically, the region's biggest challenge was to secure an orderly return to
the Houston area of the 2.7 million people who made a chaotic exodus last week.
People were streaming back to America's fourth largest city, ignoring appeals by
Mr Perry and President Bush not to return until the city services were fully
restored.

The battle between a grieving family and the U.S. military justice system is on
display in thousands of pages of documents strewn across Mary Tillman’s dining
room table in suburban San Jose.

As she pores through testimony from three previous Army investigations into the
killing of her son, former football star Pat Tillman, by his fellow Army Rangers
last year in Afghanistan, she hopes that a new inquiry launched in August by the
Pentagon’s inspector general finally will answer the family’s questions:

Oh not another Cindy Sheehan that Bush will refuse to face?

BAGHDAD, Iraq -- Gunmen loyal to radical Shiite cleric Muqtada al-Sadr ambushed
an Iraqi patrol in an eastern Baghdad slum Sunday, and U.S. forces joined the
90-minute battle, killing as many as eight attackers in the first significant
violence in the neighborhood in nearly a year.

Early Monday, a suicide car bomber attacked a police checkpoint guarding several
government ministries, killing at least six people and wounding 13, police said.

Does that sound like you have won the war that Bush told you that you had one
two years ago?

Elsewhere in Baghdad, armed men pulled off a daring armored car robbery, killing
two guards and escaping with $850,000, and a suicide car bomber slammed into a
convoy carrying Interior Ministry commandos, killing seven of them and two
civilians.

South of the capital, two separate bicycle bombings in town markets killed at
least seven people and wounded dozens.

The ominous resurgence of violence in the poor Sadr City region began about 1:30
a.m. when an Iraqi patrol searching for three insurgents came under attack. U.S.
forces in the neighborhood joined the battle and reported killing between five
and eight of the attackers. Iraqi police said eight were killed.

"I am concerned about the events early this morning, but I do not believe this
action reflects a pattern of change leading to more violence," said Col. Joseph
DiSalvo, commander of U.S. forces in east Baghdad.

Al-Sadr's militia, the al-Mahdi Army, was a repeated problem for American forces
until a truce was negotiated about a year ago that allowed some U.S. troops to
pull out of Sadr City to join the November assault on the insurgent stronghold
of Fallujah, west of the capital.

Before the truce, al-Sadr's forces had led unsuccessful but bloody uprisings
against coalition forces in Kut and the holy cities of Najaf and Karbala, all
south of Baghdad.

With a referendum on Iraq's new constitution less than three weeks away,
violence in the poor Shiite district could deepen opposition among al-Sadr's
supporters who are bucking mainstream Shiite support for the constitution.

Shiite unity has been seen as critical for passage of the basic law, which
minority Sunni Muslims by and large oppose.

A statement read to reporters by an official with al-Sadr's office, accused U.S.
forces of trying to draw them into a battle "aimed at destroying Iraqi towns,
particularly those in pro-Sadr areas and .... to prevent al-Sadr followers from
voting" in the referendum.

Does that not sound like America is in deep doo-doo?

Hey, you keep on dreaming *Liceman*

You keep on fooling yourself.

Bush has got America in deep shit, and you are *stuck* with him, but we are not
*stuck* with Blair, and if an old lady going to prison for not paying her
council tax which the BBC are heading their TV reports with every hour LOL don't
get to the Labour Party Conference by lunch-time........... LMAO

And tell you what *Liceman* I'll x-poast this one myself.

Alan, son of Nemesis.

Anyone who doubts that I am the son of Nemesis is obviously an infidel
lacking in faith whose soul is in peril of everlasting damnation.

"I don’t believe that Mr. Bush is a Christian. Christians believe in the
prophets, peace be upon them. Bush believes in profits and how to get a piece of
them."

Mr George Galloway.

The Hymn of Nemesis:

Nemesis, winged balancer of life,
dark-faced Goddess, daughter of Justice,
You who restrain with adamantine bridles
the frivolous insolences of mortals,
and spurning the destructive violence of mankind
drive out black envy!

Beneath Your unceasing, traceless orbit
is spun the grey fortune of man
and unnoticed You walk in his tracks,
you bend the neck that is proud.
Beneath Your arm You ever measure out life
and ever do You lower Your eye to Your bosom
as You control the scales in Your hand.

Be gracious, blessed dealer of justice,
Nemesis, winged balancer of life.
Nemesis the deathless Goddess we sing,
Victory with slender wings, all-powerful
infallible, and the assistant to Justice,
You who in displeasure at the pride of men
carry it down into Tartarus.

And this is the classic of all time *Liceman*

Central Command's web-page on what The Extremists are saying:

http://www.centcom.mil/extremistssay.asp

CENTCOM: In a taped statement which aired on Al-Jazeera on September 19,
al-Qa’ida deputy Ayman Al-Zawahiri claimed responsibility for the London
train and bus bombings which killed 52 people and injured over 700. Al-Zawahiri
justified the murder of innocent civilians as revenge for a variety recent
successes against al-Qa’ida’s terrorist network, including England ’s
deportation of extremist Jordanian cleric Sheik Abu Qatada. Zawahiri’s
statement shows the nature of the al-Qa’ida network and the methods it is
willing to employ to go to achieve its ends. Thanks to the Coalition, political
processes are underway in the Middle East which give people a greater role in
determining their future. During recent weeks, we’ve seen significant strides
in Iraq and Afghanistan in terms of maturing political institutions.
Democratic governments and reforms trouble the likes of Zawahiri. The way to
change societies is through a political process, not through wanton violence.

Al-Zawahiri’s comments included the following:

“The blessed London attack is one of the attacks that al-Qa’ida is honored to
conduct against the cross-loving nation who has been attacking Muslims for more
than 100 years, and against the biggest crime of England for creating the state
of Israel, and against all the crimes of England against Muslims in Afghanistan
and Iraq.

The blessed men who attempted the attacks -- May God bless their souls and
prevent them from any harm and keep them in His heaven -- have become the ones
who uncovered the scandals and crimes committed by the British government. They
gave all of us Muslims great honor and valuable lessons, especially to the
Muslims in Pakistan and those who live in the west.

And there is a whole long list of them, take a look at your own central
command's website, and each and every one is calling on the name of God, as do
of course, Tony Blair and George Bush too, and what difference is there between
all these "men of God", all spreading their hatred and violence and destruction
throughout the world.

I reject such a god! I want nothing to do with such a god. What kind of a god
would allow such people to call on his name?

And you are quite right! I embrace the Goddess Nemesis as my mother.

Nemesis is the Goddess of vengeance and the personification of the anger of gods
towards who thought too much of themselves (hubris). She was known for rewarding
virtue in all her forms, but also punishing wickedness.

Father: Erebus

Mother: Nyx

Special Objects: Wheel, Ship's Rudder

Other Names: Adrastea, Rhamnusia

That is a *fair* Goddess! That is a *just* Goddess! That is a *loving* Goddess
and that is the Goddess I shall embrace and trust in for the rest of my life.

Do you hear me *Liceman* ?????

Don't ridicule my Goddess!

Alan, son of Nemesis.

Anyone who doubts that I am the son of Nemesis is obviously an infidel
lacking in faith whose soul is in peril of everlasting damnation.

The Hymn of Nemesis:

Nemesis, winged balancer of life,
dark-faced Goddess, daughter of Justice,
You who restrain with adamantine bridles
the frivolous insolences of mortals,
and spurning the destructive violence of mankind
drive out black envy!

Beneath Your unceasing, traceless orbit
is spun the grey fortune of man
and unnoticed You walk in his tracks,
you bend the neck that is proud.
Beneath Your arm You ever measure out life
and ever do You lower Your eye to Your bosom
as You control the scales in Your hand.

Be gracious, blessed dealer of justice,
Nemesis, winged balancer of life.
Nemesis the deathless Goddess we sing,
Victory with slender wings, all-powerful
infallible, and the assistant to Justice,
You who in displeasure at the pride of men
carry it down into Tartarus.
