Terrorists Used Camp David as Symbol

Tuesday September 11, 2001 2:30 PM EDT Terrorists Used Camp David as Symbol

One of today's hijacked planes crashed near Pittsburgh, PA, but it was belived to have been headed to Camp David, MD.

Although the World Trade Center was a symbol to the Arab world, and Islamic extremists are assumed to be responsible for today's horror attack, Camp David is the site where the first ever peace treaty between Israel and any Arab nation was signed.

Today's attack comes in the very middle of the week, September 5th through the 17th, that the Camp David Accords were negotiated and signed in 1978.

Numerology is important to these terrorists, who also engineered the World trade Center bombing of 1993 to coincide with the anniversary of the start of the ground war in Iraq from 1991.

FoxNews is reporting that this particular plane might have made it to its target, if it weren't for a cell phone call from a man who said he was a passenger locked in the bathroom.

The man repeatedly told officials the call was not a hoax.

"We are being hijacked, we are being hijacked!" the man was quoted as saying, from a transcript of the call.

The United States lost 45 citizens on that flight - 38 passengers, two pilots and five flight attendants - which left Newark, N.J., at 8 a.m., headed for San Francisco.

Does this mean we shot it down before it got there?

the ArabsSome Arabs don't side at all with this stuff. Yes, some do, but others have undergone persecution, torture and execution for opposing the very lawlwess radicals who would perpetrate acts such as today's.

A couple of my best friends are arabs. They have their opinions, but as Americans they're as horrified by this as anyone else.

Keep us informed of everything you find abigail. Thanks, Jeff.

Messianic:
"Our government needs to confront the emerging threat posed by the Iraqi, Syrian, Iranian, PLO alliance
before it leads to a nuclear conflagration in the Jewish homeland."

I am horrified that - sooner or later - we will all be discussing another tragedy - a nuclear mushroom over Israel. And of course, if Israel falls -
they'll nuke many Arab countries and take them with them.

Repeated newscasts have reported that Barbara Olsen was the one who made the heroic call from the bathroom in the plane warning of the hijacking. It was not a man, but a woman if it was not Barbara Olsen.

You're confusing two planes. Barbara Olsen was on the flight from Dulles that hit the Pentagon. She was reportedly able to call her husband and say they were being hijacked, and that there were multiple attackers with knives and box-cutters. A man also locked himself in a bathroom of the flight that went down near Pittsburgh and called 911 to report the hijacking. There have been several reports that this plane, the last one to go down about an hour after the first WTC strike, was taken down by military aircraft.

I'm not convinced that Camp David was the target. For one thing, there isn't really anybody there at the moment.

Another possibility would be a target farther west, such as the Sears Tower in Chicago.

I agree with you and I'm against war in general. But this calls for hard and heavy response. Israel will use the nuke. If the Arabs had it they would have used it already. I say take 'em out and if the Arabs cut off the oil supplies then we should take the oil fields and refineries, too. God Bless America!

...if Israel falls........

Israel will NEVER fall again!


Revelation 18
15. The merchants who sold these things and gained their wealth from her will stand far off, terrified at her torment. They will weep and mourn
16. and cry out: "`Woe! Woe, O great city, dressed in fine linen, purple and scarlet, and glittering with gold, precious stones and pearls!
17. In one hour such great wealth has been brought to ruin!' "Every sea captain, and all who travel by ship, the sailors, and all who earn their living from the sea, will stand far off.
18. When they see the smoke of her burning, they will exclaim, `Was there ever a city like this great city?'
19. They will throw dust on their heads, and with weeping and mourning cry out: "`Woe! Woe, O great city, where all who had ships on the sea became rich through her wealth! In one hour she has been brought to ruin!

I think things could have been very different if the passengers and crew had not been stripped of weapons by asinine "security" regulations. They would have had a chance to thwart the hijackers, and many lives might have been saved.

An armed society is a polite society.
