The Similarities between 2007 and 1993

May 10, 2007 07:24

The public announcement of the Oslo Declaration of Principles was made on September 13, 1993. The negotiations secretly began in January 1993 and the agreement was initialed on 27 August 1993.

For that period of time, NOAA wrote, "From May through September of 1993, major and/or record flooding occurred across North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Minnesota, Iowa, Missouri, Wisconsin, and Illinois.

Fifty flood deaths occurred, and damages approached $15 billion. Hundreds of levees failed along the Mississippi and Missouri Rivers.

The magnitude and severity of this flood event was simply over-whelming, and it ranks as one of the greatest natural disasters ever to hit the United States."

Presently in 2007 there are secret talks going on and the result has been similar.

"Heavy rain from an already deadly storm system sent the Missouri River and other Midwest waterways over their banks Tuesday, forcing thousands of people to evacuate and bringing warnings that the region could see flooding close to the devastation of 1993."

"Five burst levees along the Missouri River sent a deluge of water that submerged the tiny town of Big Lake on Tuesday."

This was after losing an entire town in Kansas.

More calamity is occurring with fires in Georgia closing roads in Florida, and one in Los Angeles. Another fire in Minnesota had already destroyed 45 buildings.
