Amazing coincidences (warning: 9/11 related)

[dmoc]

Hope posting this doesn't offend anyone personally effected by 9/11 but this is doing the email rounds:

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,
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 the WINGDINGS

What do you think now?!!

What do you think now?!!

...that things don't become true just by repeating them...

e.g. the real flight numbers were:
AA 011, UA 175 (WTC); AA 077 (Pentagon), UA 093 (Pennsylvania)

Oh my God! How worried should I be? There are 11 letters in the name "David Pawson!" I'm going into hiding NOW. See you in a few weeks.

Wait a sec ... just realized "YOU CAN'T HIDE" also has 11 letters! What am I gonna do? Help me!!! The terrorists are after me! ME! I can't believe it!

Oh crap, there must be someplace on the planet Earth I could hide! But no ..."PLANET EARTH" has 11 letters, too!

Maybe Nostradamus can help me. But dare I trust him? There are 11 letters in "NOSTRADAMUS."

I know, the Red Cross can help. No they can't... 11 letters in "THE RED CROSS," can't trust them.

I would rely on self defense, but "SELF DEFENSE" has 11 letters in it, too! Can someone help?

Anyone? If so, send me email. No, don't... "SEND ME EMAIL" has 11 letters....

Will this never end? I'm going insane! "GOING INSANE???" Eleven letters!!

Nooooooooooo!!!!!! I guess I'll die alone, even though "I'LL DIE ALONE" has 11 letters....

Oh my God, I just realized that America is doomed! Our Independence Day is July 4th ... 7/4 ... 7+4=11!

PS. "IT'S BULLSHIT" has 11 letters also.

Yeah, if terrorists had to consider all of this, they would be too busy to commit any crimes. :roll:

[Dare2]

Interesting.

BTW, a quick search on google shows surah 9.11 is nothing like the words quoted.

Also any digits can be manipulated this way. You just ignore the huge number of combinations that miss. For example:

George Bush = 10
George Walker Bush = 16

BUT WAIT

George W Bush = 11


Edit:

lol, traumatic.


PS:

"Pure Basic v4" = 11
and for absolute confirmation:
"Pure Basic IV" = 11

Ulp. What does this mean!?

[blueznl]

people read too much 'the da vinci code'

[traumatic]

da vinci code

11

[Dare2]

hehe.

[El_Choni]

Why don't we just send that "11" guy to Guantanamo? He's got something to do with all this for sure!

For the record, dmoc wrote nothing but "Hope posting this doesn't offend anyone personally effected by 9/11 but this is doing the email rounds:" so aim your sarcasm elsewhere. This was posted as an "intriguing distraction" and, as far as I'm concerned, the "punch-line" (inappropriate, I know) is the wingding's at the end. Chill out suckers!

> Hope posting this doesn't offend anyone personally effected by 9/11 but
> this is doing the email rounds

Jeez, why don't whoever sends these e-mails just give it a rest? (Not blaming
you, dmoc). This e-mail first appeared in 2001, and they're STILL sending it a
whole five years later? Why don't they get a life? :roll:

For the record, here's the first mention of it on Snopes.com in 2001:
http://www.snopes.com/rumors/elevens.asp

And now the updated version that dmoc received by e-mail:
http://www.snopes.com/rumors/coincidence.asp

Hopefully these links will dispel the whole "co-incidence" thing. Forward the
URLs to the idiots who sent you the e-mail, dmoc. But I doubt they'll care.

[dmoc]

No she won't care, it was the girl friend

PS: I would get her to post back your links but I'm afraid of causing an email storm, being tagged by the US as a subversive (if not a terrorist) and then being extradited for even *thinking* about doing something classed as "electronic warfare". Don't believe me? Hear about the US student last week saying that everyone refreshing their web page would bring the colleges servers down? Darn, better start packing my bags, I be tagged now

[Dare2]

lol, El_Choni.


Chill, dmoc

You posted it for comment and it got comment. You're not the target, I don't think.

(Depends though. Anything personal about you add up to 11? Name? Birthday, month, year or date? Height? Weight?)

Edit: Girlfriends name?

[dmoc]

Girl friends name? Sure, it's "Delicious" (I kid you not). Wanna see a pic? Click >here<

Uhmmm, my IQ?

[Intrigued]

If you add the numbers in your total post count from your initial post and then delete the sum of the year you joined this forum, guess the number.

Aye-levin.
