Tonight on History Channel: "The man who predicted 9/11

"Show me a hero and I'll write you a tragedy."--Fitzgerald


Tonight on the History Channel they are running "The Man Who Predicted 9/11" (8pm)

I haven't seen this before and I'll assume it's a first showing, so therefore I hope that in addition to
honoring the memory and the deeds of the brave soul Rick Rescorla they will perhaps touch upon what he thought might lead to such an event.

On the website of atom films www.atomfilms.com you will find an interview with Col. Rescorla. Give it a look.

A quote from the film:

"And finally I would say: The residue of hatred this is creating--in these foreign countries--where we're doing these things and we don't think there are any repercussions. Those people should think about the World Trade Center bombings and things of this
nature."

"Things will come home to roost."

:kick:

"At the time of the interview, Rescorla had been diagnosed with prostate cancer. Given Rick's larger than life personality, it is not surprising that he managed to beat the cancer into remission. He was due to retire just three months after September 11, 2001 and planned to devote himself to writing." (from atom films)

I haven't read this book, but those who have feel free to post comments:

thanks for the heads up.

Saw something similar a while back.

"The Man Who Knew Too Much."

http://www.pbs.org/wgbh/pages/frontline/shows/knew/view/

It's about John O'Neill, former FBI man who was the chief guy going after
Osama before 9/11. He was so frustrated by gov't inteference in his pursuit
of Osama that he quit and went to work as head of security at the WTC.

Fascinating stuff.

that said "Bush would be the most hated President" and the WTC would be destroyed on his watch? They then showed the failed 93 WTC bombing failing and it was on Clinton's watch?

Some other phycics predicted a big event at the end of 2001.

on the phone? Busy circuits?

complex, I believe, is a very significant predictor, too. Well worth watching, though. I think Frontline did the documentary on O'Neill.

Before it happened?
