I don't see any sign of an aircraft, ergo; it is a hoax!

Hmmmmm!

Did anyone officially say it was a Piper Cub? The early reports were that it was a "tourist plane."

Heck .. there is a report that it was a helicopter

If so that must have been one BIG helicopter by the size of the hole in the building

CNN is reporting that there was only ONE person on the plane now. Weird.

They better have hazmat ready if that's the case, IMHO.

No Sheite! Bunch of psudo experts that seem to know it all without knowing much of anything!

I know this.

In the clear blue sky, a plane hits the tallest skyscraper in Italy -- and one of it's industrial icons -- and does damage nearly as bad as that of the jetliners in the World Trade Center.

This happens the very day a bomb goes off in a Milan government building.

If you think this is just a co-winky-dink, then I wish to do all of your investing for you from now on. Please forward me a way to contact you. I can quadruple your money in 5 days!

Terror? Then why did they choose a time (6p.m.) when the building would be mostly empty???.......

Who says they "chose" that time? That's when the plane hit. We know nothing of their plans.

Today is still April 18 in the US. It is the evening of the 18th in Italy. Sunset, local time, in Mecca was at 6:41 PM. That began the next day according to the most ancient traditions in the area. The "next day" is, in the Western calendar, the 19th.

This is probably another Islamist act. The Number 19 played a prominent role.

Whether it means anything to us, it sure seems to mean something to them, eh?!

Islamic Cultural Center in Milan is the home of Al Qaeda in Central Europe

Not sure if this was mentioned earlier in the thread but wern't most of the Easter warnings to traveling Americans centered in Italy?

From the pictures provided here, it looks as if the plane came in level to do maximum damage to one floor. It is also square in the middle of the floor...

Terrorist? Nut? But it sure looks like it was on purpose. An accident would be at an angle, and wouldn't have hit center.

They just faxed me the surrender documents. I don't know whether to accept it or not - they also faxed them to the math/science division across the hall. I spoke with one of the professors from over there, and we're all kind of hoping they'll send them to the economics department instead.

Do we all get free cheese as part of the surrender?

MILAN (Reuters) - At least one person was killed after a small tourist plane hit a skyscraper in central Milan on Thursday, fire officials said.

Rescue workers said about 20 people had been taken to a nearby hospital. Witnesses said people ran out of the building with blood on their faces.

Oh yeah. Evertime there is a terrorist attack anywhere, everyone thinks of the Jews.

No me. The first thing I think of are the little kids on the planes on 9/11. Then the people in the buildings, etc.

Go "get some fresh air". Seems you need it.
