Deliberatly...no...Ignorantly and naively, yes...

No, deliberately.

THINK! What was their motive? Why did they stop the Red Cross? Why didn't they let the aid trucks through? We don't have to guess, we know, they told us. They stopped the aid from going through because if conditions in the Superdome and the Convention Center improved, more people might be tempted to go there... and fewer would be inclined to leave. They explicitly wanted to prevent conditions from improving. That is DELIBERATELY MAKING THINGS WORSE.

I don't think Blanco intentionally wished to commit genocide. I do think she (or those under her) deliberately induced suffering at the Superdome and the Convention Center in order to compel people to leave. Whether they knew in advance that this would cause death (rather than merely mass suffering) is questionable, and depends on their competence. But don't blame the simple decision to block the Red Cross on incompetence. It was a rational, intelligent decision... provided their goal was to make the Superdome and Convention Center miserable.

They want to drive people from their homes, coerce them into hitting the road, being "relocated" at the whim of the government, forced into giving up all they own, and THEN they have the GALL to bitch when we call their victims "refugees"!

Honestly, I can only assume she believed was helping them by forcing them out by applying strong drastic measures. I'm not saying I agree with her actions; they were short sighted and imbecilic in nature.

Unfortunately, this is a liberals MO....many liberals and socialists would like to implement draconian measures that would be unpopular, in their delusional belief, that doing so they would be beneficial in the long run.

Again, in her mind she believed that they would be better off leaving than staying...so the end justifies the means......Pathatically ignorant and naive....but she believed, IMHO, she was actually helping them....
