Freaky- 9/11

[Jimjamz]

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.


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.


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:


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 WINGDINGS


What do you think now..?!

[Casazeal]

Okay, that is really, really, REALLY creepy!

[Jimjamz]

Yup! The wingdings thing is the worst...

[Casazeal]

I know! I recoiled so fast from the computer screen once I'd changed the font! Argh...that's just...argh!

[RedAngel x]

I just saw this on another forum an it freaked me right out!

[DreamDangerously]

don't get too overexcited guys... these are hoaxes.

Chapter 9 Verse 11 of the Qu'oran actually reads:

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 passage Jaime quoted doesn't appear anywhere in the entire book.


The numbers thing is a case of gestalt - seeing patterns in randomness...the person who wrote that only chose numbers that would fit the pattern and ignored incovenient details such as the fact that flight 77 only carried 64 people not 65 and that other significant places connected with the incident don't fit the patter and so are ignored, Washington DC for example has 12 letters!

to prove the point, someone on another site said you can make the number 2 significan for all of those items listed....so therefore the number 11 pattern isn't significant at all.

Also the Madrid train bombings happened 912 days after 911 depending on if you say how many days after the event it happened or how many days between 9/11 and Madrid there were (then it would be 911). Again, kind of looses it's significance.

As for the Webdings thing....none of the planes had Q33NY as a flight number or tail number so again...it's basically anti-semetic, conspiracy theory balls and shouldn't really be spread around.

These stupid hoaxes help no one and just create panic, fear and hatred.

Wow! Osama has dial-up!

Seriously.

I've done that before! lol.

There was loads of stuff like this floating around after 9/11, there's quotes from Isaiah as well that 'apparantly' relate to it. Most of it as DD said is just people connecting things anyway they can to freak people out.

You just have to ruin it don't you!!! Do you not believe that Bush is holding a conspiracy then!!! Did you know that part of Bush's family is related to part of Osama Bin Laden's family?

How can you believe that Bush can even spell conspiracy?

Michael Moore needs to look up the term 'balanced opinion'.

That's very true. I meant that one of his skivvies spells it for him. He just does it!!

[matt]

You just have to ruin it don't you!!!

Also - um...how can theoretically proving that something that's meant to scare isn't true be 'ruining' it?

I'd thought DD's post would be seen as relief - NOT 'ruining' the 'illusion' about one of the biggest events in history.

[krusty ketchup]

Yeah but it works so well. I am as relieved as you are but it's like nuclear war. We all know it can happen, but knowing how close we are to it is just scary. I would rather not know!

[DreamDangerously]

eh?

How on earth is Bush related to Bin Laden?

Really I pointed it all out as rubbish a) to show up that you should never believe everything you read, b) because some of it is anti-semitic bull and c) because sometimes bad things happen and there is no pattern and no rhyme and reason. The only scary co-incidence about the whole thing is the fact that Osama Bin Laden and his cronies recieved their original training from the CIA in the first place. I don't think I'm spoiling anything unless you especially enjoy ignorance.

You can't predict these things sometimes and you can't get caught up in the doomsday approach to life. It wasn't foretold, predicted in nostradamus or any somesuch rubbish, it was down to humans being humans. End of story.

Conspiracy theories get my goat too....government is all about being covert and underhand. Thats not conspiracy, that's old fashioned Machiavellian politics...it's been like that for 1000's of years. Goverments lie and cheat and do covert deals and spy and connive.....that's politics for pity's sake!

[krusty ketchup]

Ok well that's your opinion. But not everyone has to think what you do. I can believe what I want to and I believe that it's all a big conspiracy. My choice and that's what I choose!!
