I just want to go on record right now by saying...
This is NOT the end of the world. This has NOT been prophecised by Nostradamus/the bible/Kreskin/anything else. And there is NOT going to be a war, for goodness sake! I mean, be realistic here for a minute. There's a difference between a military strike and a terrorist attack, mostly that wars are started because of military, not terrorism. If they do respond with voilence, it will not streach out into a war.
OK, here's the deal: We (at least I) have not been saying that Nostradamus/theBible/etc prophecied this attack, but instead that there are some striking parallels between the incident and the text. As far as the war goes, president Bush has already stated that '...we will make no distinction between those responsible and those who harbor them.' Also, recently president Bush has recieved NATO support in that if the attack was found to be sponsored by any nation, all NATO members would be 'entitled to respond under international law.' Read: If we find out a country funded this, NATO is going to war with them. If we find out that a country is knowingly hiding the terrorists responsible, we decalre war on that country.
