Weird coincidences in the media prior to 9/11.
The Lone Gunmen

Pilot Episode "predicts" 9/11
In a foreshadowing of the September 11, 2001 attacks, subsequent conspiracy theories, and the 2003 invasion of Iraq, the plot of the March 4, 2001 pilot episode of the series depicts a secret U.S. government agency plotting to crash a Boeing 727 into the World Trade Center via remote control for the purpose of increasing the military defense budget and blaming the attack on foreign "tin-pot dictators" who are "begging to be smart-bombed." This episode aired in Australia less than two weeks before the 9/11 attacks, on August 30.

It represents capitalism. It represents freedom. It represents everything America is about. And to bring those two buildings down would bring America to its knees.
--Line from the original script for Nosebleed, a Jackie Chan movie involving a terrorist plot against the World Trade Center



"Party Music's cover displays this "prophetic" popular culture. Boots Riley, a known radical activist through his lyrics and attitudes, had previously released three albums with commentaries on the oppression of the poor by a callous wealthy class. The Coup worked with graphic artists in May and June of 2001 to create a cover to continue the symbolism."
