brief Posted September 12, 2001 Share Posted September 12, 2001 Originally posted by Natty: I think the Pittsburg plane was heading towards Camp David, is that right? The President's retriet, dunno why, don't think anyone was there, but oh well. So what actually happened with that? Did the military shoot it out of the sky? or did it crash on its own? It is believed that the plane was likely headed for Camp David, possibly targeted because of a treaty that was signed there. I've heard unverified reports that someone onboard the plane had called his wife, told her about the hijacking, and that they (the passengers) wouldn't let the hijackers get what they (the hijackers) want. ------------------ [This message has been edited by brief (edited September 12, 2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MagnusB Posted September 12, 2001 Share Posted September 12, 2001 I don't want to start another fight, but sorry, show what up who's face? Apart from that, I'm glad you want to "change". About the Nostrodamus (I think that's right) thing: He predicted that a guy named "Hister" would start WW2, and that's sort of spooky, yet, I'll bet he has 1000000 prophesies that have NOT, come true, so fear not!

Guest murta Posted September 13, 2001 Share Posted September 13, 2001 This guy predicted that mankind would make contact with Aliens in 1999, the end of the world on (or soon after) the Millennium and that we would discover a cure for cancer in 2001. Also German officials actually used Nostradamus' predictions to try to win WW2, any relations between his predictions and real-life occurences are either coincidental or have been carried out by fanatics to make them come true. It's a shame we have human rights because I'd love for officials to advertise for a huge crowd to gather and then just throw anyone connected with these cowardly acts to the mob. The death penalty's too good for them as well, they should be put in jail for life, monitored to ensure they don't have the privelige of suicide and have the **** kicked out of them for the rest of their worthless lives by prison guards and other inmates. That's the only suitable punishment in my eyes If Bin Laden is at the bottom of this, the SAS will get him I think from now on, all flghts should have at least one security guard on board, and video cameras. I mean, these things cost alot of money, yet the security at airports and on the planes is pathetic, anyone could get knives onto a plane [This message has been edited by murta (edited September 12, 2001).] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest murta Posted September 13, 2001 Share Posted September 13, 2001 "The following quatrain has been circulating the Internet after the WTC bombings. In the City of God there will be a great thunder, two brothers torn apart by chaos, while the fortress endures, the great leader will sucumb. The third big war will begin when the big city is burning. It is NOT by Nostradamus. The original source may be: http://www.ed.brocku.ca/~nmarshal/nostradamus.htm Here is a short excerpt from that page. How does this apply to Nostradamus? Well I will show you... If I make say a thousand prophecies that are fairly abstract for example: In the City of God there will be a great thunder, Two brothers torn apart by Chaos, while the fortress endures, the great leader will succumb Well let us analyse this. For Example what does City of God mean? It could be Mecca, Medina, Rome, Jeruselum, Salt Lake City, or any holy city depending on your religion. What do I mean by thunder--a storm? War? EarthQuake? lots of stuff can be described by thunder. There are a lot of two brothers on this world (I think the Number runs among the Billions) and fortress edure's what--Besiegement, Famine, etc? What Great Leader? How will he succumb? To what?" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Posted September 13, 2001 Share Posted September 13, 2001 Originally posted by Natty: Just got this in an email from a kinda friend in America, it's from the book of Naustradamus (spelling) in the city of God there will be a great thunder, Two brothers torn apart by Chaos, while the fortress endures, the great leader will succumb.

He scares me I hate him I wish he never exsisted I mean look at all the things he's predicted and that have came true Hmmm....that seems a little bit like the post NFGB made earlier except the rest of that is crap... As fot the plane in Pittsburgh, it was supposedly possibly headed for Air Force One when male passengers did something so that it never made it. The plane that hit the pentagon was apparently headed for the white house... ------------------ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natty Posted September 13, 2001 Share Posted September 13, 2001 The 2 planes that hit the WTC were on target, the plane that hit the pentagon apperantly was supposed to hit the whitehouse, and the plane that crashed in Pittsburg was apperantly gonna take on Air Force 1, all this was apperantly what the people on the planes were saying as they were making phone calls to family. I've just been reading the newspaper online, and in Brisbane, a schoolbus with Islamic children has been stoned, and pro islamic graffitii is being graffitied in Melbourne, and this morning at the American something in Sydney a suspicious package was left there, I'm trying to find out what that was though... Also, a lot of Australian sports people have been lucky to miss on being caught up in the WTC incident. Apperantly Lleyton Hewitt caught the last plane back to Australia before the incident occured, and apperantly Ian Thorpe was in NYC and was gonna go up to the observation deck at the WTC that morning, cept he forgot his camera, and a couple of AFL footy players were gonna do the same thing, but for some reason they delayed it... ------------------ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jorgito_Vaderman Posted September 13, 2001 Share Posted September 13, 2001 Well, I think the one that went against the penthagon did it on purpose. All the planes had an specific target. They planned that for days. I dont think they took the plane and decided once they took off if they were going against the White House or against the penthagon I dont know if you get what i mean. ------------------ My name is Bobbin, are you my mother?

raVen_image Posted September 13, 2001 Share Posted September 13, 2001 What bothers me about this whole affair is the short memory Americans seem to have. G.W. Bush has gone as far as to call this a "War of Good against Evil". We seem to forget that one of our NATO allies, China (who we are happy to include in this manhunt) was called "evil" by America less than a year ago for human attrocities. We even debated against holding the 2004(6?)Olympics in their country. We have also forgotten our dark history of human attrocities: Slavery for Africans, Barberism against the Indian population, Internment Camps for the Japanese (and even those that 'looked' Japanese) during WWII, All the terrorism that has been US government-funded over the last 50 years, and so on. Something you wont see much on CNN (because we have a great propoganda machine in place)is all the random brutality that is now being made against Islamic people in our country. We are randomly attacking anyone who even looks Arab or Islamic on the streets. We have Moslems who have locked themselves up in their homes, afraid that they will be beaten (or worse) by our population. Our human attrocities continue, even in the face of this event. We have learned nothing. America is NOT the "good guy" in this. We are merely the latest victim of terrorism--a situation that we have been all too happy to ignore, when it happens to the other guy. Hell, some of our supporters see terrorism on a regular basis, but when was the last time America stood up and tried to stop terroristic actions in Isreal, or Ireland? We will, but only if our economic intrests are effected by that terrorism. I have a great deal of sympathy for those that lost friends and family, and would never condone the murder of innocents. But America, my country, is ready to do exactly the same thing. We are preparing to attack a country (maybe more than one) for the actions of a single group. We are prepared to murder more innocent lives in some distant country--all in the name of "goodness" and "decency". And we have the balls to ask for help; dragging other countries into this...countries that we would never consider helping if the roles were reversed. If this had happened to China or France, would we offer our military support? No way! This is not a war of "good against evil". More like a war of "evil" against "some more evil".

Natty Posted September 13, 2001 Share Posted September 13, 2001 It's the few nutters in a country that spoil it for everyone else. Like I've said to my family, perhaps it was only a matter of time before something happened to America, not that I am saying they deserved it. But a lot of people get shytty at America for sticking their noses in where it doesn't belong, like look at the Vietnam War, what did that have to do with America? Absolutly nothing and yet they sent troops in there. This is just an example of what I'm trying to mean. I can understand where America is coming from, it's almost the exact same circumstances of when Australia went on the peace keeping mission in, oh crap I forget where, in...in... you know where I mean, they wanted to become indipendent from Indonesia. What I'm trying to say is maybe the big power house countries shouldn't stick our noses in where it doesn't belong. Gulf War, another example, didn't have anything to do with America, but coz Isreal were in it and coz Isreal and America are allies, of course America are gonna go running off to help. Not that it's a bad thing, but perhaps we should look at drawing the line on when to help and when not to help. I dunno, perhaps I'm in the minority with this sort of thought. I only hope you don't take it the wrong way with what I'm saying, I can't explain what I mean, hopefully you get it though ------------------ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Natty Posted September 14, 2001 Share Posted September 14, 2001 Storky has a point. No one from other countries rallies behind countries like Afghanastan or supports them when they get bombed or terrorized, infact, I think most people turn around and point the finger and say "Afghanastan started it" which I dunno if that's true or not, it's just the impression I get. We still don't know for sure they were definatly from Afghanastan (unless something happened overnight...) or that they were arabs (even though the evidence so far points to them) But try looking at it from their point of view, for years and years and years, they've been fighting with Isreal coz America gave them that land... most, if not all of Isreals weapons n stuff come from America, and so when they turn around and attack (defend, depending on who strikes first...) the Arabs, they're using America's technology. I mean wouldn't you be pyssed off if you were fighting with another country and that country was using weapons, that technically didn't belong to them or that the country that is supplying those weapons has nothing to do with what the fight is about? I would be, still I wouldn't wanna fight about it. Not everyone in this big, wide crazy town is normal, sometimes, I think that some of those countries in the Middle East are war happy- that is they're not happy unless they're fighting with other people. I just wish we could all live together peacefully and happy, of course that will never happen... ------------------ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bush sucks, Clinton didnt suck.....(well, he GOT sucked, but thats another story) We do care, but stuff that happens in the Middle East isn't on this scale and what happened was unprovoked, whereas in the case of the Middle East, it's part of ongoing wars. I think Storken's justification that it's Bush's fault is pathetic, if and when democratic countries take action against others it is targetted at military threats. We do care when innocent people get killed, however most of the time, when America takes action, if any innocents are killed it is a few and purely mistake. These evil events cannot be justified and I find it sickening that people can act as though it isn't important because this happens in the Middle East all the time. It's sad but it looks likely that Afganhistan will be bombed, as the terrain is so vast and hard for troops to move on and all attempts from countries to invade by land in the past have failed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
