history repeats ?

    I have noticed the way in which history repeats itself in some way or another.Take for Instance the attack on the World Trade Centre. These events really reminded me about the early days of chapter 48. Libya 1981 - 1989 in a book called "killing hope" by William Blum ( a CIA operative who wrote a book about America and its espionage operations!). Although the events on different magnitudes they still hold the same vital chain of events.

    For instance :
    • A terrorist event killing Americans.
    • The same "Precise" , "Irrefutable" and "Direct" untold evidence.
    • An alliance.
    • A person who is accused of planning or financing many terrorists events over several years.

    And from the looks of political events in Washington , London and Israel. It seams as though "retaliatory" action by the Alliance.

    Superman, not sure if it's a good or a bad thing, but you get my prize for the most nonsensical posts ever.

    What irrefutable evidence is present in the current situation?

    An alliance? Are you mad? Surely to gawds there has been more than one alliance in the past 12-20 years?

    Hundreds, probably thousands, of people are and have been funding terrorists worldwide for many years.

    I fail to see any outstanding logical connection.

    The same seqeunce of events happened ,
    last week said something about "irrefutable evidence".
    It just goes to show that history is never changing and is only ever being repeated in some way or another, I suggest you buy the book and read it.

    Hmm, should I buy the book, it wouldn't be to pull out references and coincidences linked with the WTC fiasco.

    I'm sick and tired of people discovering amazing after-the-fact predictions, cycles and similarities.

    I still don't see that the events in Libya and recent events are in any way mysteriously linked. Such events all have many common characteristics, such as terrorists killing people and others financing them.

    When I did history for the Leaving my teacher used to always tell us that "in history, the more things change, the more they stay the same!"

    I think he's right.
