Video shows Bush Katrina warning
Video has been obtained by a US news agency showing President George W Bush being briefed by officials on the eve of the Hurricane Katrinadisaster.
The confidential video obtained by the Associated Press shows very strong warnings being given to Bush about the potential strength of the storm.
IT APPEARS TO CONTRADICT SUBSEQUENT SUGGESTIONS BY THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION THAT THE THREAT HAD BEEN UNCLEAR.
The footage shows plainly worried officials telling Bush very clearly before the storm hit that it could breach New Orleans flood barriers. In the past, the president has said nobody anticipated a breach but the video shows Michael Brown, the top emergency response official who hassince resigned, saying the storm would be 'a bad one, a big one'.
THE PRESIDENT, HOWEVER, SAID FOUR DAYS AFTER THE STORM: 'I DON'T THINK ANYBODY ANTICIPATED THE BREACH OF THE LEVEES.'
Bush later accepted he shared some of the responsibility for the flawed response to Katrina and the White House talked of the 'fog of war' rendering decision-making difficult.
Michael Brown told AP this week that he did not 'buy the 'fog of war' defence'.
'It was a fog of bureaucracy,' he said.
