A 9/11 Consideration: Whose Hand’s Writing on the Big Wall in 1945 and 2001 ?

A 9/11 Consideration: Whose Hand’s Writing on the Big Wall in 1945 and 2001 ?

As everyone should know, on July 28, 1945, a B-25 bomber plane hit the 79th floor of the Empire State Building. It killed 14 people in the then tallest skyscraper in New York or the world.

While being informed so, however, nobody thought that it might be a hand-writing on the wall. That is, a hand writing which is telling American people beforehand that something horrible might happen soon somewhere from the sky using American military planes. It was then only Imperial Japan that was continuing war with the U.S. So, now we could interpret it as a sign of coming atomic bomb attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki by B29 bombers, which actually happened in August 1945.

Most of learned people, on the last turn of the century, selected the atomic bomb attacks on the Empire of Great Japan by the U.S. military as the most important news or events in the 20th century.

Now, we may wonder whether it was, too, a hand-writing on the wall that the World Trade Center (WTC) towers crumbled after being hit by jet planes, each of which terrorists took control on.

In the summer of 1945, American people were given a very slim chance or too short notice to stop the atrocity on Hiroshima and Nagasaki if they had wished, as the hand-writing was given just days before the attacks.

Now, four years have passed since the destruction of WTC in 2001. We have been given a plenty of time to consider what the new hand-writing on the wall, if allowed to call so, stands for.

Will it be something most of learned people, on the next turn of the century, select as the most important news or events in the 21th century?

What I mean is that I don’t think the collapse of WTC is to be the most important news or events for the 21th century, as with a case of the collision of a B25 bomber with the Empire State Building in July 1945 for the 20th century.

Nonetheless, If, contrary to the nightmare, the kingdom of God should come before the 22nd century, we might be allowed to say that it has turned out to be another kind of omens despite so many (heroic) sacrifices. But, of course, such a kingdom is not tangible.
