In the pilot episode, which aired March 4, 2001 (exactly six months and one week prior to the September 11 attacks[5]), rogue members of the U.S. government remotely hijack an airliner flying to Boston, planning to crash it into the World Trade Center, and let anti-American terrorist groups take credit, to gain support for a profitable new war following the Cold War. The heroes ultimately override the controls, foiling the plot.
Tom Clancy also wrote about hijacking a Boeing & flying it into Congress.
And Coup’s album cover depicted the twin towers exploding a few months before the attacks.
Are we suggesting the band and this show were somehow connected with the government…or the government planned their attack in a few months/weeks after witnessing these works?
The fact is that since they were built the towers were signals of the American empire and were obvious targets for terrorist organizations, especially after the first attempt to bomb them.
