Could today see a repeat of 4 years ago?
It has been some time since I made a post here, but as some of you know, I have been having problems with one of my sites.
Today is going to be a tense and worrying time for many, will another 9/11 style attack happen? (As we have suggested it might).
It is still possible, but I think nature may have saved us from this event, at least for a while. Although Hurricane Katrina may seem like an unlikely saviour, especially as it might be the cause for some 10,000 deaths, a 9/11 event leading to another war would certainly be more costly.
But if it doesn't happen today (or later this month), that doesn't mean it won't ever happen. This may only be a temporary reprieve.
If a new 9/11 is designed to promote a special reaction (as we believe it is), then it is important to have as many see this as possible. The tactic is very much like any other form of advertising. I remember spending more than a month once on a national advertising campaign (for a previous business) and on the same day that all my adverts appeared across the country, the Gulf War began. Naturally, everyone's attention was focused on that and not my adverts. And the same has happened following Hurricane Katrina, which will remain a top story for some time yet.
You can be sure that a lot of planning will have gone into preparing a new 9/11 and maybe those behind it will still proceed as planned. Maybe some will think this is a good time to do it, who knows? With people devastated by the New Orleans tragedy, perhaps another "disaster" might be very effective and capitalize on the lowered morale of the country.
Hopefully, I won't be returning to post another message in the next 24 hours to bring you reports of bad news, but we must continue to be on our guard, it isn't over yet.
Feel free to post comments, your views are welcome.
