Maybe the Daily Mail link needs its own thread.

There are a truckload of pictures over there.

The crane had German and Bin Laden connections per the article.

Weird.

I just read the whole DM article w/pics...quite comprehensive.

Lord, forgive me for delighting in the demise of our enemies who stand in our way of serving your commandments.

They started it. I barely knew what a muslim was before 9/11.

I’m not crying over this either.

But over here, at least we have the decency not to party in the street and laugh at them.

So ...

Drudge headline has it a 101 dead. God have mercy on their souls.

Interesting though ...

“101”

10-1=9
10+1=11

Just saying

Nothing “holy” about Islam, and nothing in Islam is holy.

In fact, quite the opposite.

Seeing that it was Lightning, it’s obvious that both Thor and Zeus have had it with the Arab Moon God. . .

There’s something ‘unusual’ about today... I’m just starting to see the synchronicities/coincidences. Perhaps it will continue.

There have been other incidents at Mecca. I seem to recall an attack by gunmen, and a mass causality event during a stampede of Hajis.

Not really... the Bin Laden construction company has been making an honest living since the ‘50s. Osama was the Patty Hearst who twisted off, condemning and divorcing his family for their secularism, and riches.

The family owns a lakehouse not far from me, a compound of sorts, and the day after 9/11 the feds raided it for DNA off hair and toothbrushes, pillows, robes, etc.

These cranes have to be grounded *deep* into the sand with copper to avoid lightning strikes. The BL crane somehow was not. Or someone pulled/cut the ground wire. Whatever. 101 and counting.
