Actually, how do you explain THESE, which could have been premonitions of 9-11, several months in advance:
Strange Dream

"I had a dream that was very strange. Everything was black and white and there was no sound to be heard. In the dream the sky was cloudless and it seemed to be a few hours after midday. Everything was calm and there were no birds in the sky. From where I stood I looked up and could see numerous crisscrossing contrails from jetliners traveling high in the sky. To my amazement and horror, for no apparent reason, the planes began falling from the sky. I could not determine the reason for this, as the aircraft appeared to be intact, and there was no indication of distress or damage to any of them. As they impacted the ground numerous fires were started and I could see the smoke from many of them in the distance all around. Suddenly there was a bright flash from the western horizon. My instincts told me to seek protective shelter. I managed to find cover by laying in a drain culvert just as a tremendous blast wave filled with all manner of litter and debris roared overhead"

And an even more eerie one on the same thread:

I've had the following dream at least twice involving an airliner:
I dreamed I was in downtown Boston and a Boeing 747 flew into the John Hancock tower. For those unfamiliar with Boston, the John Hancock tower is a 60 story glass building - the tallest skyscraper in Boston at 790 feet.
Anyway, in the dream, I'm walking past the Boston Public Library towards Copley Place and I look up in the sky and see this 747 coming in low to the ground. It crashes into the building up near the top so that the nose section is sticking out one end and the tail section is jutting out of the other. The wings shear off and fall to the ground.
Strangely enough, nobody around me seems to react to this seemingly catastrophic event. People just go on walking as usual. However, several fire trucks and police cars nonchalantly approach the building and begin to commence rescue operations. None of the rescue personnel appear to be in much of a hurry. It's almost like they are carrying out a tired, routine drill.
However, I can hear distant screams from the airplane above as I approach the building. Sort of like the screams you hear from a distant roller coaster. People up there are screaming but nobody down below seems to be paying very much attention.
After waking from this dream (I've had it at least twice), I can't seem to get myself together right away. The eerie feeling persists for an hour or two and I can't get the sound of the distant screams out of my head nor the vision of the airliner pierced like an arrow through the John Hancock building in Boston.

Man, that's weird. I just was reading that old thread. Very strange. Much after the posts you quote someone else talks about dreaming of the assisination of Anwar Sadat, just a few days before it actually happened. He didn't even really know who Anwar Sadat was, but he knew it was him that got killed in his dream.
Freaking myself out here.
Now THAT gives me chills !!
Here's mine. Pyschically, I'm thick as a plank, BUT, on the morning of 9/11 I told my wife about a weird dream I had.
We were in New York City touring through a battleship that was on display in the harbor. Suddenly planes started dropping bombs and I told her we had to get below, underneath the armored decks. Next thing, I was griping about the market being closed because of the bombing. Then I work up. It was around 7 a.m. on 9/11.
My dad told us about the only "psychic flash" we had in our family. My mom woke up screaming she had seen a family friend in a burning building with his right arm trapped under a beam. It was Sunday, 7 dec. 1941. Weeks later we found out he lost his LEFT arm when the Japs bombed the Philippines on Dec. 8.
Ever after, she would keep us kids in line by threatening to dream about us unless we shaped up. Man, we toed the line - Major Ju-Ju at work.
As for the Global Consciousness Project, well, Hillary DID say it took a village . . .
Interesting. I'm no shrink, but I have read that airplane crashes are one of the most common types of nightmares that people have. We could probably find just as many striking airplane dreams occuring in . . . '98, '99, '00, '02, '03, '04, etc.
Except for the weather and the time of day, the first dream sounds alot like the very common nuclear war dream.
