This is an actual ad of a Pakistani airline. Note the date in the lower left corner: the year is 1979, more than 20 years prior to 9/11.
Is that one hell of a creepy coincidence or what?
If Algeria introduced a resolution declaring that the earth was flat and that Israel had flattened it, it would pass by a vote of 164 to 13 with 26 abstentions.- Abba Eban.

not really, they are advertising flights to new york, shown by having a shadow of a plane on one of new yorks most well known landmarks. it's practically a one in 3 chance that they would choose the twin towers, and they would have been the best for the ad anyway because the statue of liberty, not being flat, would have been a harder ad to do, and the empire state building is not big enough to get a decent silouhette

Something interesting I found on a website somewhere. Don't know if it's all true or not but the last bit is still cool.
New York City has 11 letters
Afghanistan has 11 letters
Ramsin Yuseb (The terrorist who threatened to destroy the Twin
Towers in 1993) has 11 letters
George W Bush has 11 letters
This could be a mere coincidence, but this gets more interesting:
New York is the 11th state
The first plane crashing against the Twin Towers was flight number
11
Flight 11 was carrying 92 passengers. 9 + 2 = 11
Flight 77 which also hit Twin Towers, was carrying 65 passengers.
6+5 = 11
The tragedy was on September 11, or 9/11 as it is now known. 9 + 1+ 1 = 11
The date is equal to the US emergency services telephone number
911. 9 + 1 + 1 = 11
Sheer coincidence..?! Read on and make up your own mind:
The total number of victims inside all the hi-jacked planes was
254. 2 + 5 + 4 = 11
September 11 is day number 254 of the calendar year. Again 2 + 5 + 4
= 11
The Madrid bombing took place on 3/11/2004. 3 + 1 + 1 + 2 + 4 = 11
The tragedy of Madrid happened 911 days after the Twin Towers
incident
Now this is where things get totally eerie:
The most recognised symbol for the US, after the Stars & Stripes, is
the Eagle. The following verse is taken from the Quran, the Islamic
holy book:
"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, 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
...Unconvinced about all of this Still ..?! Try this and see how you feel
afterwards.
Open Microsoft Word and do the following:
Type in capitals Q33 NU. This is the flight number of the first
plane to hit one of the Twin Towers
Highlight the Q33 NU
Change the font size to 48
Change the actual font to the WINGDINGS1

Judging by the size of the shadow, what do you suppose would be the height at which that plane flew?

"It's nonsense" also has 11 letters. Coincidence?
P.S. There is no such verse in the Qur'an.

well, quite high i guess, considering shadows get bigger the closer an object is to the light source, but the sharpness of the shadow would be very low. but it is just an advert, there's a little thing called artistic licence which advertising uses a lot to show stuff in adverts!

6 months before 9/11, the X-Files spin off series "The Lone Gunmen" pilot episode revolved around a government plot to stage the hijacking of an american commercial aircraft and fly it via "remote control" into the World Trade Center in order to cause a surge in the arms industry that had been waning since the end of the Cold War, and to provide an excuse to "smart bomb some tin pot dictators".
