Many of you are getting angry at censorship... If its not really needed, you don't need it... Its that simple. Give them some time to make it seem like a lightbulb suddenly clicked and they figured out EXACTLY what to do and who did it, even though they already know.

While the flight recorders from the WTC planes might not survive, the ones in the Pennsylvania and Pentagon planes should be fine.

Even if the WTC ones are intact, it could be awhile before they are located.

After the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, Yamamoto stated:

"I fear all we have done is awaken a sleeping giant"

Might the giant awake yet again?

I seriously doubt this. I mean come on, if the government wanted to stimulate the economy, a simple reduction of interest rates would do the job. Do you really think they'd destroy the WTC to accomplish a rise in the economy? Not to mention the loss of lives? I don't think this is an even possible theory, since it's so far-fetched. But those are just my views, don't crucify me for them.

Anyone know if "Sleeping Giant" was ever used in a Nostradamous Prediction?

It does not ring a bell, but does anyone else here read Nostradamous and knows if he ever used those words?

by the way, the previously mentioned Nostradamous quote was also used during desert storm.....while anuther Bush was in office

I'm sure they'll be able to find the one in Pennsylvania for sure, I'm not so sure about the other three. Black boxes are basically indestructible and they're probably the only source that will be able to tell us exactly who committed this henious crime.

Alright, Only my 3rd post and the day still isn't done, I've decided that I'll come to grips with everything that has happened, the Canadian Dollar is going to catch up to the American dollar, and the tragedy is going to put our country's again on the same level economically. But we'll help each other out and we'll both probably end up making the north american borders disapear, at least when it comes to helping hands between the countries. They hit the most powerful spot in the world, the place where the WTC was once, also harboured the New York Stock Exchange and the UN.

And this wasn't done by a foriegn country it was terrorists, yes maybe foriegn terrorist groups, but they enemy lives amongst us all the time. So it couild lead to fear, but yes its true it could be your neighbour who could be a terrorist, but you can't think like a conspiritist, or you won't get anything done.

One of the fire fighters said that he witnessed one of his friends (another fire fighter) die when one of the bodies fell from the tower and landed on him.

This entire thing is just sick.

With so many businesses closed for such a long time could really hurt the US economy.

And, in a related note, I heard that the Prime Rate was just lowered today.

They didn't actually know then when and the where. By the time the government understood what the messages were saying it was too late to do anything about it. It's not like the government just sat on the side and let it happen.

The Prime Rate is the interest rate charged by banks to their most creditworthy customers (usually the most prominent and stable business customers). The rate is almost always the same amongst major banks. Adjustments to the prime rate are made by banks at the same time; although, the prime rate does not adjust on any regular basis.

But then again the boost that war gives to the economy is a big one, and they were in need for one, they just might have known and figured that the lives spent at Pearl Harbor would be worth the future of the nation.

Sacrificing all of those lives lost at Pearl Harbor and throughout WWII far exceed the benfits the US saw coming out of WWII. No government would be immoral enough to let our country go to a war of that magnitude just for economic gain. The economy will go up again on it's own, there's no need for a war to accellerate that process. The externalities are far worse than the benefits.

I just wish I could meet people like them in a dark alley, then justice in the courts wouldn't matter because I would have justice. If this gets me banned, then,,,live long and prosper. I seriously doubt the true people behind this shameless, godless, act will accept responsibilty, because then the cowards will be gone. Exterminated from the face of the earth by the USA government.

You want me to meet me in a dark alley tough guy?..why dont you stop your typing fury and come visit my country then?..

Just because I'm making reference to a prophet who has been right for over the last 2000 years, and you dont like how im presenting it, means jack. I wont get into anymore of your retarded threat, you obviously dont know who I am in real life..obviously..making threats like that. If there is ONE thing I can say about some americans, its that they are Ignorant, not all, but some.. and you'll sit back and wonder why this happened.. You want to know who are cowards? Your filthy govn is full of them, why dont you find out about what your talking bout, I still managed to get my pt across without being a *******..but surprise surprise..

From Nostradamus:

"Earthshaking fire from the center of the Earth
Will cause the towers around the new city (correctly identified as a city @ 45 degrees latititude)to shake;"

Jet fuel is made from elements in the earth, and it caused the towers to shake

I don't know about anyone else, but I am sickened and repulsed by what occurred today. If my country needs me, I am so there.

I understand that your personal feeling is that human lives > economy, but think in terms of a government. But in the grand scheme of things, keeping the single most powerful empire known to man's economy afloat becomes much more important than Joe K. Schmoe who got shot by a Nazi.

Honestly think about where the country would be, if it even still existed, if there had been no up-turn because of the war. It'd be a sad sight to see. I personally commend the people who sacrificed themselves for such a noble cause.
