Remember a few years back before 9/11, when an Egyptian pilot deliberately brought a plane down - and later when the black box was recovered, the pilot was found to be uttering a mantra, something like, "God is great, God is great..." over and over.

Maybe no connection, but these wacko Egyptians are somewhat suspect.

Another look at Egypt Air crash

Nearly two years before the Sept. 11 terror attacks, Egypt Air Flight 990 took off from Kennedy Airport bound for Cairo and inexplicably crashed into the Atlantic off Nantucket, Mass., killing all 217 aboard.

U.S. investigators determined the relief co-pilot, Gamil el-Batouty, deliberately crashed the plane. Those findings were released just five months before Sept. 11.

Batouty's last words, according to investigators, were in the form of Muslim prayer in Arabic: "I rely on Allah." He said it 11 times before the aircraft began its sudden descent from 33,000 feet to 16,000 feet.

An eyebrow raiser for sure.

Or was it the second, after the bombing of the World Trade Center? However the result was the same, they did nothing about either one.


The first islamic terrorist attack on the US. All though we weren't told that at the time, blame the klintoonistas.

It was seldom reported that very senior members of the Egyptian military were on that flight.
