Did Nostradamus predict this tragic event?

[DisneyFreak]

Read for yourself:

The New City

The new city contemplating a condemnation,
The bird of prey offers itself to the heavens.
After victory pardon to the captives,
Cremona and Mantua will have suffered great evils.

Earth-shaking fire from the center of the earth.
Will cause the towers around the New City to shake,
Two great rocks for a long time will make war,
And then Arethusa will color a new river red.

At forty-five degrees, the sky will burn,
Fire approaches the great new city,
Immediately a huge, scattered flame leaps up
When they want to have verification from the Normans.

The king will want to enter the new city,
Through its enemies they will come to subdue it
Captives liberated to speak and act falsely,
King to be outside, he will keep far from the enemy.

Garden of the world near the new city,
In the path of the hollow mountains,
It will be seized and plunged into the Vat,
Drinking by force the waters poisoned by sulfur.

Freak....we were talking about this last night at the dinner table...kinda eerie huh?

Completley unreal, Tramp....I can only hang my head in sorrow for all the innocent victims, their families and can only fathom what they are going trough. Then I lift my head upward in pride to know that the American Government and the American people will get through this and not let this brutal attack go unanswered.

DisneyFreak they discussed this on the radio this morning and it is another urban legend. Nostradamus did not make said statement.

Only 74 days until WDW. Boy do I need this vacation more than ever. In fact, my final payment on the Disney Club room rate went in this morning thanks to our tax rebate check. WL here we come!

Excuse my french... but Nostradamus and his works are bull . His writings can be applied to any event and people make it into more than it is.

BTW - Nostradamus predicted that the world would end on the 7th month of 1999 (july). Its September 2001..... I rest my case.

I know where you're coming from here WDWI but you still can't dismiss that almost 50% of Nostradamus' prophecies have been interpreted to some of the world's greatest tragedies. It seems to much of a coincedence to me. JMHO.

Actually that was supposed to be the start of WWIII with Russia and Iraq.

In the year of the new century and nine months, from the sky will come a great King of Terror...The sky will burn at fourty-five degrees. Fire approches the great new city..." "In the city of york there will be a great collapse, 2 twin brothers torn apart by chaos while the fortress falle the great leader will succumb. The third big war will begin when the big city is burning"-Nostrdamus 1654

Here's a similar prediction - argh i don't know what to believe anymore!

That is the fake passage Tap. Nostradamus died in 1566.

Yes... Indeed it is false. I find it funny regarding the dates! Although I don't find it funny that people spread stuff like that simply to scare people.

I agree, that's Orson Wells' job.
