snopes.com is the web site that addresses urban legends. You may check that out. I don't doubt that those 3 had a party celebrating 9-11 in Chicago. They've got lots of Mohammeds there. Did they ever release the islam of peace's guy's names? Maybe they let them go and hopefully, they are going to watch their every move from now on. I don't buy the medical student stuff. I think that's a cover.
Wasn't this an urban legend? It's real? I saw the replies to your note that have already posted and followed the one regarding http://www.snopes.com/ . I went to their "Search" window and entered the phrase "World Trade Center attack predicted". I brought up a series of Urban Legends and the first one was applicable. (What's interesting, RC, is the story about the Dallas boy is actually a Dallas suburb, Garland. That's just down the road from my house, about 2 miles!).......

Did a Dallas schoolboy predict the September 11 terrorist attacks on America?
Here's how they classify the Urban Legend:
Status: Undetermined.
And here is the report/finding:
A similar incident involving a schoolchild was reported in Brooklyn, New York:
In Brooklyn, a high school freshman who recently immigrated from Pakistan was investigated by federal agents after his teacher reported that he had predicted the Trade Center's collapse a week before the towers were attacked. The student pointed out a third-story window of New Utrecht High School toward the Trade Center and said, "Do you see those two buildings? They won't be standing there next week," according to three police sources and a city official familiar with the investigation. They said the comment came in the midst of a heated political discussion the student was having with his teacher in an English class for Arab-American students.

Once again, however, no follow-up information surfaced to indicate that the boy had any specific foreknowledge of the September 11 attacks:
Federal agents who visited the New Utrecht school questioned the student and his older brother, who also attends there, the sources said. Afterward, the agents tried to question their father, who chastised them for harassing his children, they said. Police sources said that, after the interviews, the boy's father left for Pakistan. After his departure, investigators conducted a second interview with the boy and his mother, who told them that her son was having psychological problems.
