Mysterious
No. 11 continues to hound the world, mankind
By

By
sheer coincidence, the deadly terrorist train bombings in Madrid, Spain last
March 11 occurred exactly 911 days after Muslim extremists attacked New York
City and Washington on Sept. 11, 2001 known the world over as the 9-11 tragedy.
Number
11 has indeed been hounding humanity since the infamous 9-11 attacks nearly
three years ago.
Consider
this: The date of the attack was September 11 or 9 + 1 + 1 = 11, and to think
that September 11 has 9 letters and 2 numbers: 9+2=11, and the number 911 is the
telephone number for emergencies in the United States!
Likewise,
September 11 is the 254th day of the year and to add the numbers 2, 5, 4 the
total sum is 11. And after September 11 there are 111 days left until the end of
the year.
Terrorists
used an unconventional method in attacking New York and Washington by hijacking
commercial jetliners and slamming them on Apple City’s twin towers which
looked like No. 11.
There’s
more to it on the bizarre No. 11. The terrorists hijacked the first plane with
Flight AA11 and the targets were the double 11, twin towers.
Four
of the hijackers on board flight AA11 have the initials A. A. which when
translated to number is 11.
The
Website Yahoo also confirmed that the fifth AA11 hijacker was the pilot named
Mohamed Atta whose name has 11 letters. The plane was carrying 92 persons. When
added, 9 plus 2 equals 11. The ill-fated plane had 11 crew members – 2 pilots
and 9 flight attendants.
New
York was the 11th State added to the Union and the name Trade Center has 11
letters. The word "skyscrapers" also has 11 letters.
The
first tower collapsed at 10:28 a.m. that fateful day of September 11, 2001. When
added 1+0+2+8=11. The first fire truck to arrive at the scene was firetruck, No.
11. The firetruck lost 11 firemen combating the blaze and the World Trade Center
collapsed to a height of 11 stories.
It
is on record that the twin towers continued burning for 99 days before it was
extinguished and multiplying 9 by 11 equals 99.
Topping
it all, New York officials announced that the death toll from the World Trade
Center attacks was 2,801 which when added together, the total is 11.
On
the other hand, the plane that hit the Pentagon was United Airlines Flight 77
with 65 people on board. Again, 6 + 5 is 11.
The
prime suspect in the 9-11 attacks was Osama bin Laden whose birthplace is Saudi
Arabia, again with 11 letters.
The
first man who orchestrated the attack on WTC in 1993 was Ramzi Yousef whose also
has 11 letters.
Number
11 is indeed significant. Consider these significant historical events: World
War I ended on the 11th hour, of the 11th day, of the 11th month. The first man
to land on the moon was aboard Apollo 11.
Ancient
superstitious beliefs say Number 11 has been associated with mystery and power
for thousands of years.
It
has remained a puzzle to mankind. (PNA)
"After this I kept
looking in the night visions, and behold, a fourth beast, dreadful and
terrifying and extremely strong; and it had large iron teeth. It devoured and
crushed and trampled down the remainder with its feet; and it was different from
all the beasts that were before it, and it had ten horns. "While I
was contemplating the horns, behold, another horn, a little one, came up among
them, and three of the first horns were pulled out by the roots before it; and
behold, this horn possessed eyes like the eyes of a man and a mouth uttering
great boasts.
