9/11

I asked this question two years ago, but I still don't know the answer: Has anyone anywhere come up with an explanation for how a Palestinian kid could predict both the World Trade Center attacks and the American Airlines 587 crash?

Our Muslim bretheren are a fairly insular community (at least around here - St. Louis). I suspect that there was a meme running through the community that something was afoot. Nobody can really keep their yap shut completely. I'll bet the hijackers said something to someone who made vague warnings through back-channels. Like the "telephone game" the details are muddied, the origin murky.

This might have been a combination of an imaginative child taking an idea (the WTC had been bombed before) and making a statement that happened - to his misfortune - been prophetic.

I wonder how many times a similar "prediction" went unnoticed because it never occured. It's like the Jean Dixon effect - nobody remembers the failed preditctions.

Considering that the Muslim community is not monolithically loyal to the idea of a constitutional republic and western freedom (sorry, that's just how it seems to me - I'm not reccommending internment) I would not be suprised if the greater Muslim community had an inkling of something big.

Jeff Shapiro is a tabloid reporter, whose credibility was challenged during the JonBenet Ramsey episode. Check out Perfect Murder, Perfect Town by Lawrence Schiller. I wouldn't trust him.

Interesting blog you have here, I landed here on accident. I was searching for something else and came across your site. I found it pretty interesting and entertaining. I got you book marked.

I will pop back in from time to time to see what you have new here.

My site is a bit different than yours, but just as entertaining and educational, I run a diabetes research related site pertaining to diabetes research related articles.
