I want to be carful about reading too much into what the Rabbi says here.
7-year Jubilees according to the Rabbi can either be a matter of blessings or none. So if September is the operative month and we are in 7-year cycles lets reach back into our historical memories and see if we see any patterns. I can't fill in anything significant where I have placed a "?":
Sept. 1994 (R) take Congress back 1st time in 40 years (Nov)
Sept. 1987 Stock market crash
Sept. 1980 The Reagan landslide (Nov)
Sept. 1973 Yom Kippur War
Sept. 1966 ?

FReegards!
Hadn’t thought of anything before the judgement of 9/11, as Cahn was just referring to the parallels of 2001 and 2008 to biblical judgement.
