South American man hijacks plane, demands to speak with president.

I am posting this here mainly because I cannot post it anywhere else. I had not planned on making an introduction post but I suppose my hand was forced. I have been on this site for a while and look forward to being here for quite some time. I really enjoy the variety of discussion and debate that takes place here everyday. And I look forward to being an active voice in said exchanges.

Now that the formalities are out of the way on to the story. I was surprised to see that no one has posted on this already seeing as how it ties in a lot of themes we regularly speak about here.

I am skeptical to any theories that anything extraordinary will happen on days with sequential dates (i.e. 09/09/09). However, with all the talk around here and the rest of the internet about the date I was naturally trying to be as observant as possible. So imagine my surprise when, while at work, I check CNN and see the following story about a plane that was hijacked. I will let the quote and the story speak for itself. However, I feel like this is something interesting to note; whether Mexico receives a major earthquake or not only time will tell. And the same goes for his claim that Christ is returning. One thing is for sure though, this guy would have been RIGHT at home here on ATS.

The suspect, Josmar Flores Pereira, told authorities he hijacked the Boeing 737 jet because the date -- September 9, 2009, or 9/9/9, and 666 reversed -- held some significance for him, said Genaro Garcia Luna, the secretary for public safety.

"He said that because of that divine reference, he wanted to alert Mexico City of an earthquake," Garcia told reporters.

"Christ is coming soon," he told reporters before being escorted off.

Link to CNN story

"Christ is coming soon,"

A drug addict alcoholic minister, thinks that, because christ is coming soon... that it's good to hijack a plane...... eh, never understand some people's rationality!

"He never wanted to hurt anyone," said Elisa Melgar, 38, the mother of their three sons and his wife of 18 years. "As his wife, I support him," she said, adding her husband had not touched alcohol or drugs for the past 17 years. "He's a man who was transformed by the power of God."

Yep... another hijacking due to god. What's his deal with planes!

Here is his Music Video, Rock on!
