Please post on this thread any link or information that provides evidence that some in the Muslim community had prior knowledge of the 9-11 attack. Newspaper accounts or first hand experience would be appreciated. I think it is important to record this information while the event is relatively recent.

Boy in Dallas suburb predicts start of WW III day before attacks

Boy in Dallas suburb predicts start of WW III day before attacks

The day before terrorists attacked New York and Washington, a fifth-grader in a Dallas suburb told his teacher World War III would begin the next day, school officials have told the FBI.

The boy was absent from school the day of the attacks, Sept. 11, and the following day, but has been at school since then, said Rhonda Lucich, a director of elementary education for the Garland Independent School District.

Lucich said the boy approached his teacher on the afternoon of Sept. 10 and casually told her:

"Tomorrow, World War III will begin. It will begin in the United States, and the United States will lose."

I saw the Islamic calendar from Egypt obtained in the Netherlands that showed a drawing of a jet aircraft plummeting toward the skyscapers of New York City. The caption said something like "Let my fate be in Allah's hands". This was featured on Brit Hume's show and sourced from newsmax.com, I think. This calendar was printed in Egypt for 2001 I believe, with an eeriely similar view of what the terrorists actually finally did on Sept 11th. We are told Egypt is our "ally" in the war against fundamentalist extremist Islamic terrorism and they have even been defended as such here by posters no less than one called "George W. Bush". I can only hope the real Bush isn't as ignorant and naive as that one. Egypt is an ally of terrorism, our enemy, and must be dealt with as such.

I saw last night on either Fox or CNN that European authorities are investigating a Muslim calendar that featured a plane crashing into Manhatten and the words "We place our fate in God's hands" for the month of September. The implication was that the calendars had been out for some time, thus predicting the attack.

They showed a picture of the calendar page in question. The actual copies of the calendar were found in a Muslim school in Belgium or something like that.

Newspaper accounts or first hand experience would be appreciated.

I think it was around the middle of last week (Oct. 10?) when Michael Medved recounted the
story of his brother's business associate in NYC getting an indirect warning on the evening
of Sept. 10. It was apparently a "loose lips" slip from the children of the
Muslim family who lived next door.
The business associate survived Sept. 11 (I can't remember if he actually
worked in the WTC towers), but called the FBI immediately. The Muslim family had
cleared out sometime during the night of Sept. 10 or very early Sept. 11.

Sounds like a "I know a friend who knows a friend" story, but Medved is such a
straight arrow on facts, I did pay attention to this one.

I was listening to Imus' show on Sept. 14 and a man called in from Queens and said, 1)there were no cabs on the street in Queens the morning of Sept. 11, but after the attacks several Middle Eastern cab drivers had congregated there and were celebrating; and 2) a friend of his owned a deli a block away from the WTC; he had six Middle Eastern employees and none of them showed up for work on Sept. 11. This guy heard it first hand from his friend who owned the deli, not second or third hand. This was the first time I had heard any stories like this, so I thought at the time it was probably a hoax -- but now I am not so sure! I hope someone from the FBI has contacted this guy and gotten to the bottom of it.

So the Paki father chastises the American cops for being mean to his kid, and then Daddy takes off overseas and the kid returns to his American school. This is what Homeland Security is all about? Forget it!

I think the muslims having their lawn chairs ready along the piers over in Jersey was a dead giveaway.

You guys have already posted everything I have on this.

But this is a concept that should be filed away in our minds as one of those "early warning" signs. If you live in an area with a Muslim population large enough that you usually see them in a particular place (the grocery store, for example) you need to take note if they are not there. To stay aware, we may have to learn to watch for what's missing as well as looking for what shouldn't be there...

Why else is new? I heard & read about it in the papers three weeks ahead of September 11th.

Where was our 30 Billion dollar intelligence's?

Here's a link to a local news station's report. This sounds suspicious to me.

Attack Prediction?
