My aim, then, was to whip the rebels, to humble their pride, to follow them to their inmost recesses, and make them fear and dread us. Fear is the beginning of wisdom.
I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

He seems to be doing excellent work, people are getting moved, people are getting fed, people are getting water.
Despite folks complaining about those who failed to evacuate (blaming them for their plight) from what I've seen until about Thursday the response effort couldn't have moved out even 10,000 folks after the storm. Completely inadequate considering there was still some land access to the city.

Red thats nice to hear.I hoped that a military leader would put some sense in that chaos because he is used to working in that kind of enviroment,where he doesnt exactly know whats happening everywhere.

Re: This is how you do it.
Apparently, Lt. General Honore has been trying to direct things with a dead battery in his cell phone, since late yesterday. No one thought to bring more batteries to a city without electricity.
From CNN this morning, in an interview with the Louisiana governor:
"The stench of the dead on the streets is significant...The General in charge has a cell phone with a dead battery for communication. This is not the kind of communications the US military is used to. This is why this is taking so long. There is no infrastructure." --Louisiana Gov, Saturday morning, CNN.
