Big Easy Rocked by Katrina



New Orleans

My heart goes out to the people in New Orleans who have been rocked by the Katrina Hurricane. Hundreds if not thousands of people have perished in this tragedy and millions are now homeless. I offer a prayer on behalf of all Pakistanis for a speedy recover from this, it is sad to see the US face another life-changing tragedy probably even bigger than 9/11. Compounding the problem was very slow response from the emergency services and after some serious finger pointing George Bush finally did admit for the mishandled disaster relief efforts.

Reports are circulating that hundreds of bodies are roting in the sun and to make matters worse gangs are busy looting the various business districts of the Big Easy. About three years ago I did visit the Big Easy for a meeting and did pay homage to the historic Bourbon’s street and saw how the Orleans loved to party. I wonder if this city will ever recover and maybe resume the year-long Mardi Gras.
