    This is freaky...

    1) New York City has 11 letters



    2) Afghanistan has 11 letters.



    3) Ramsin Yuseb (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin Towers in 1993) has 11 letters.



    4) George W Bush has 11 letters.



    5) The two twin towers make an "11"



    This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets more interesting:




    1) New York is the 11th state.



    2) The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number 11.



    3) Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 11



    4) Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers. 6+5 = 11



    5) The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 = 11



    6) The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number 911. 9 + 1 + 1 = 11.



    Sheer coincidence..?! Read on and make up your own mind:
    1) The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was 254. 2 + 5 + 4 = 11.



    2) September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year. Again 2 + 5 + 4 = 11.



    3) The Madrid bombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11.



    4) The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers incident.



    Sheer coincidence..?! Read on and make up your own mind:
    Now this is where things get totally eerie:



    The most recognised symbol for the US, after the Stars & Stripes, is the Eagle. The following verse is taken from the Quran, the Islamic holy book:

    "For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle. The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced: for the wrath of the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah and there was peace."



    That verse is number 9.11 of the Quran.



    Still uncovinced about all of this..?! Try this and see how you feel afterwards, it made my hair stand on end:


    Open Microsoft Word and do the following(TRY THIS FOR REAL)



    1. Type in capitals Q33 NY. This is the flight number of the first

    plane to hit one of the Twin Towers.



    2. Highlight the Q33 NY



    3. Change the font size to 48.



    4. Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS



    Scary Huh??

    Q33 NY=..

    Netlore Archive: Does verse 9:11 of the Qur'an (Koran) predict that the 'wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah'?

    Description: Hoax
    Status: False
    Circulating since: Feb 2003
    Analysis: See below


    Truth be told, the word "eagle" doesn't appear anywhere in the Muslim holy book, the Qur'an. Neither, it goes without saying, does this phony verse combining American symbolism (the bald eagle is the official national emblem of the U.S.A.) with recent history and Islamic prophecy.

    Verse 9:11 of the Qur'an is about repentance and reads as follows in three different English translations:

    * But (even so), if they repent, establish regular prayers, and practise regular charity, they are your brethren in Faith: (thus) do We explain the Signs in detail, for those who understand.

    * But if they repent and establish worship and pay the poor-due, then are they your brethren in religion. We detail Our revelations for a people who have knowledge.

    * But if they repent and keep up prayer and pay the poor-rate, they are your brethren in faith; and We make the communications clear for a people who know.

    The earliest instance I could find of the fake passage, evidently intended as a joke in its original context, is in a Usenet posting dated February 14, 2003.
    Don't believe everything you read.

    But some of those facts are true, and it's freaky.

    Freaky, perhaps, but ultimately meaningless.

    Today is September 11th....

    our school (the high school anyway..not sure about the middle school or elementary school) had a gathering at our flag pole. Two girls sang the national anthem, we said the pledge of allegience, and then had a moment of silence. Personally, I'm a patriotic person and so things like this mean a lot to me.

    Yawn.

    It's that time of year again. It coincides with going back to school, with the start of autumn... it happens every single year now.. yes it's 9/11 time once more. Oh joy.

    So every where I go for the next week or so i'm gonna have to put up with some uninformed nonce whining on about how terrible it was, about how all the terrorists should burn in hell and about how it was all... "zOMG! A conspiracy~!".

    Yes it's the time of year that American's can really focus on shoving 9/11 down our throats... telling us how hard done by they are... blah blah blah blah!

    To be honest, they don't need it to be September to do that, they do it all the time anyway. I am sick and tired of seeing 9/11 dragged up in EVERY single incident that ever occurs. I'm sick of Americans, the powers that be and otherwise, acting as if they are the only ones who have ever been affected by terrorism. We've had terrorism here since the 60's... ever hear of the IRA you ignorant yanks? In fact, smurf that... there's been terrorism in the middle east for hundreds of years. Terrorism has long been a global issue before it ever hit the US so smurf everyone babysitting America just because of 9/11.

    And why does 9/11 have to be brought up every five minutes... Seriously, do we have to extract every last little piece of painstaking information from it? Everyone knows the facts by now... so why do we still see countless documentaries on it. Why, when I was in America this summer, did I constantly have people telling me that it was a conspiracy.

    Newsflash morons, there was no conspiracy. The towers were attacked by terrorists who had hijacked planes. End of. Full stop. The end. NO MORE.

    Can we not just let it go already. We've had the London bombings since 9/11 and they are all but forgotten about. Can't people just begin to accept that it happened, and move on?! And for those of you who are going to reply with "Why should we forget? Why should the families who lost loved ones forget?" Don't bother.

    Can you honestly tell me that it does these families any good for the event to constantly be replayed over and over and over again. What sort of damage do you think that does them emotionally? Think about that.

    The worst thing to come out of 9/11 was it simply extending America's already overwhelming ego.

    Bottom line. smurf America... you're not the centre of the world.

    I think that's really cool, if I was still in school I would hope they would do something like that.

    I just watched a couple of new films about 9/11.

    Well, considering that it was one of the biggest terrorist attacks of our time, with several thousand people being killed, two skyscrapers destroyed, planes hijacked...

    Yes. I think that they were hard done by it.

    Oh, and welcome to the forum.
