The coronavirus equivalent for boomers.
>Early September: A massive hurricane is detected heading towards New York, it is expected to arrive around September 11. It stars to rain and storm during the night of September 10. The news reports it as being ominous. Donald Rumsfeld announced on that day that the pentagon's financial cannot account for 2.3 trillion dollars in transactions.
>On the morning of September 11 the hurricane starts to change direction suddenly around 5 am and it is now a very clear sky in new york.
>Then, 19 men who have only been living in the USA for less than two years take some box cutter knives and mace aboard four planes. Two of the planes are at Logan International in Boston.
(Logan international in Boson was the airport that got hijacked on the TV series "the lone gunmen: pilot episode, where the US government hijacked a plane and tried to fly it into the world trade center. This episode aired on tv in March 2001)
>Then, the current owner of the world trade center insurance policy (Larry Silverstein, who purchased the insurance in July 2001, the first time the insurance had been traded in decades) decided he was going to go into work in the towers like usual. But his "skin felt weird" that morning so his wife told him to go to the doctor instead, the doctor was busy but Larry decided not to go to the trade center anyways. That day, Larry's colleagues were having a meeting to discuss what to do in a terrorist incident because of the 1993 bombing. But the meeting was canceled when Larry did not show up. The US military was conducing simulations that same morning of planes flying into buildings in terrorist attacks. 1/2.
