No, not really. His prediction was of the "someday something bad is going to happen" type. It's like if I spent 20 years saying the stock market was going to crash, then when it inevitably does I go "See? I told you so!"

he mentions osama bin laden and the world trade center. sure a clock is right twice a day, but at that point it, i find it suspicious.

Osama Bin Laden was a well known terrorist figure. The WTC was previously a target of a bombing in 1993. It's like me saying that one day Russia will invade another European nation. I mean all the evidence points that way, so can you call it a "prediction?"

i’m just refuting your claim that it was something as diffuse as “someday something bad will happen”, he did in fact “predict 911”, but so did most people who paid attention to islamic terror at the time.

if you go watch the clip, it’s much more detailed than you give it credit for.
