(Ed) List of strange strange coincidences on 9/11

SBrown · 25th June 2006, 10:31 PM

Lets discuss it now without childish frenzy mentality. I will start.....

Lets list every strange coincidences that happened on that day.

1. 3 steel frame buildings fell for the the first time in history as a result of fire all in the same day.

Regnad Kcin · 25th June 2006, 10:34 PM

Strange coincidence from that day #2: People in several cities each ate a hot dog...with ketchup.

Nope I do not think that counts since it is not technically a strange coincidence since it happens every day.

I am confused. Surely coincidence requires that the coincidental events are unrelated.

The collapse of WTC1, 2, and 7 were events within a single particular event - that being a terrorist attack on the United States. Therefore they are related, and not coincidental.

Secondly, where is your evidence that these buildings collapsed due to fire? I understood that two were hit by airliners and the third was hit by the other two. From what I gather, this had something to do with the buildings collapsing.

What's this thread?

You're just here to antagonise people SBrown. Cut it out.

#2 NORAD happens to be conducting exercises that simulate commercial airlines being hijacked and flown into buildings.

Pardalis · 25th June 2006, 10:41 PM

BTW, what is a strange coincidence?

SBrown, I want to hear your analysis of what exactly constitutes a "coincidence".

Go.

Axiom_Blade · 25th June 2006, 10:42 PM

YouTube & Google Video

Upside: Can watch old music videos
Downside: Proliferation of CTs

So, are we better or worse off?

SBrown · 25th June 2006, 10:43 PM

Come on now lets grab a little security and give up a bit of liberty!!!! Lets all sing it boys...

Security for liberty as the I sing.....land where my father died...land of Jihad suicide....land with a chip in my thigh....let freedom leave....

Regnad Kcin · 25th June 2006, 10:44 PM

But okay, I'll humor you.

No. Or rather, not exactly. In actuality, three steel frame buildings fell as a result of a series and combination of events and forces, among them being fire.

See? No "strange coincidence" at all.

Pardalis · 25th June 2006, 10:45 PM

SBrown, your complete definition of "coincidence" please.

Um...

NORAD was conduction ONE exercise, called Guardian, which they hold every year in Spring, and which tests their response to nuclear attack.

It doesn't really relate to 9/11...unless you think the Russians did it...
