11

What is with the terrorists' fascination with the number 11?

9/11/01: NYC
3/11/04: Madrid
7/11/06: Mumbai

I'm surprised that the London bombings (7/7/05) didn't take place on the 11th. Maybe they were going to but they thought that they were going to get caught?

Maybe it's just a grisly coincidence.

I've thought about that. Spooky stuff. I've tried to see if I could discern a pattern, but I can't. A few others that don't form a pattern, per se, but that seem to fall in a certain time of year:

1st Bali Attack: 10/12/02

2nd Bali Attack: 10/01/05

Jakarta Embassy Attack: 9/9/04
