For it is written that a son of Arabia would awaken a fearsome Eagle.
The wrath of the Eagle would be felt throughout the lands of Allah and lo, while
some of the people trembled in despair still more rejoiced: for the wrath of
the Eagle cleansed the lands of Allah and
there was peace."

That verse is number 9.11 of the Quran.

Wrong...the verse does not say that.

Wrong. There are many different versions, it can be read in any order... it is not laid out like the bible as this suggests...

Actually, there is only one version, different translations, and it is laid out in a specific order.

This was an e-mail originally posted by a guy known as Geller and has since been purely COINICIDENTAL:

"Accumulating more findings like these coincidences between the number 11 and other things should be easy, since there are countless items that can be made to relate in some fashion to the number 11 (or 12, 13, or just about any other number or word). E.g. the country code for Pakistan is 92 (9+2=11), a Boeing 757 holds about 11,000 gallons of fuel and the wingspan is 155 feet (1+5+5=11), Nostradamus and Billy Graham have 11 letters, any word with 8 letters just put 'the' in front of it; any word with 9 letters, just put 'ww' or any two-letter word in front of it, any word with 10 letters, just put 'a' in front of it or add an s to the end of it, etc. It is especially easy to do this since there is no specific guide before we begin our hunt for amazing facts as to what will and what won't count as being relevant. We have a nearly boundless array of items that could count as hits. Unfortunately for Geller and others who are impressed by these hits, there is also an even larger array of items that could count as misses. Geller doesn't see them because he isn't looking for them.

If we start hunting for items that seem relevant but don't fit the pattern, we will soon see that there is nothing special about Geller's list or the number 11. Only by focusing on anything that we can fit to our belief and ignoring everything that doesn't fit (confirmation bias) can we make these coincidences seem meaningful.

Carroll's List of Meaningless Coincidences

the planes hit a little before and a little after 9 am
there were 4 flights that crashed with 266 people in them; 2+6+6= 14
one plane was a 767 (7+6+7 = 20)
the other a 757 (7+5+7 = 19)
the 767 has 20,000-gal fuel capacity
the 757 has a 124-foot wingspan (1+2+4 = 7)
a 767 has a 156-foot wingspan; 1+5+6 = 12
one tower was 1,362 feet high; 1+3+6+2 = 12
the other was 1,368; 1+3+6+8 = 18
the supports are 39 inches apart; 3+9 = 12
the buildings were leased for 3.25 billion; 3+2+5 = 10
the other flights were AA 77 (7+7 = 14) and UA 93 (9+3= 12) and UA 175 (1+7+5= 13)
flight 11 had 81 passengers (8+1 = 9)
flight 77 had 58 passengers (8+5 = 13), 4 crew members and 2 pilots (total=64)
Boston has 6 letters
Massachusetts has 13 letters
Pennsylvania has 12 letters
Washington D.C. has 12 letters
Los Angeles has 10 letters
The number of hijackers was 19 (9+1=10)
Names and words that don't have eleven letters in them: Osama bin Laden, Khalid Al-Midhar, Majed Moqed, Nawaq Alhamzi, Salem Alhamzi, Satam Al Suqami, Waleed M. Alshehri, Wail Alshehri, Abdulaziz Alomari, Dick Cheney, Laura Bush, Iraq, Iran, Pakistan, Muslim, Islam, Pentagon, World Trade Center, terrorism, jihad, Taliban, Koran, United States, anti-American, murder, fire, hell, stupid.

What Geller and other numerologists are doing is a game, a game played with numbers and with people's minds. Sometimes it is amusing. Sometimes it is pathetic. "
