Mr. Ahmadinejad and his followers clearly believe that this time is now, and that the terminal struggle has already begun and is indeed well advanced. It may even have a date, indicated by several references by the Iranian president to giving his final answer to the U.S. about nuclear development by Aug. 22.
What is the significance of Aug. 22? ... This, by tradition, is the night when many Muslims commemorate the night flight of the prophet Muhammad on the winged horse Buraq, first to “the farthest mosque,” usually identified with Jerusalem, and then to heaven and back (c.f., Koran XVII.1). This might well be deemed an appropriate date for the apocalyptic ending of Israel and if necessary of the world.

where August 22 of this year somehow relates back to the 1400's.

I think it is ignorant to not take into account that there have been some strange numerical similarities when it comes down to these large scale terrorist attacks. 9/11, 3/11, 7/7 now possibly 8/22?

Sorry, but it is also ignorant to think that all people use the month/day date format.
Most countries use day/month.

No, I but I have seen so many people making claims based on the specific order of the numbers that now I always react to anything that looks like it.
But I hope that you know that for all people who use the Islamic calendar those days mean nothing.
This might well be deemed an appropriate date for the apocalyptic ending of Israel and if necessary of the world.

I am not one for doom dates, but I found something somewhat interesting about this one, and I figured I would post it, see what everyone thought.
I have had a interest in Terrence McKenna's Novelty Theory since I first heard about it, and always found it to be a fascinating way of
looking at time and history, but anyways, a while ago I got a copy of Wavespell, which is a program based upon the same principles that Terrence's time wave zero, and I was playing around with it while here reading this thread and figured I would check the dates in the software.
Here is what I got:
One
Two
Three
Four
Five
This shows, based on these sequences, that there should be a large shift of novelty on Augest 22. While this doesn't mean anything bad would happen to cause this shift based on the theory.
Any thoughts?
