The Madrid bombing- which took place on 3/11 and exactly 911 days after 9/11, demonstrates the ironic obsession terrorists have with numerology, as well as anniversaries. And it’s not just the Islamists either; Timothy McVeigh purposely carried out the Oklahoma City bombing two years to the day after the Waco massacre, while the Columbine killers committed their crime on 4/20- (likely in tribute to the marijuana code, though some still say it was because of Hitler’s birthday).
So gentlemen, next time your wife or girlfriend chides you forgetting your anniversary, you’ve got the perfect retort: anniversaries are for terrorists!
