Family Guy does Lockerbie - Foxtrotting

Today's BBC is reporting that the French see the Charlie Hebdo "attack" as their "nine eleven". Numbers can be revealing and apparently, rather than utilising the actual date of the incident, 1/11 has been chosen, given the show of solidarity at the Unity March.


From 9/11 to 1/11

On Friday past, relatives of the Lockerbie Pan Am 103 victims approached the High Court to ascertain whether they can submit an appeal against the conviction of Abdelbaset Ali al-Megrahi. Lockerbie happened on 21/12. Lady Dorrian, presiding, has ordered that a hearing takes place on 27th March, 27 being 3 cubed. BBC

27/3 will be the seventh anniversary of an "unprecedented" police raid in Finsbury Park, London, where 1122 police carried out a military style raid on various premises believed to be utilised for criminality. The same day, then Prime Minister, Gordon Brown, met his French counterpart, Sarkozy, very close by to discuss joint military strategy and education for the Africans :

At their press conference, Mr Brown said Britain and France shared the same vision for the future of Europe.

"Our two countries are at the heart of what we want to be an outward looking and globally focused Europe. 

"We both favour a strong relationship with our American partners. We agree that only by working together can we confront the challenges we face from terrorism, from climate change, poverty, disease and failed states." BBC....

The 600 officers were part of a 1,122-strong unit that swooped on notorious crime gangs plaguing a North London borough.

Senior officers rejected accusations that it was overkill or “gesture” policing, insisting the army-size operation was fully justified. Daily Express

It is alleged that Lockerbie is named after the Norse "trickster" "God", Loki. That could well be key.

Megrahi's 1970's Welsh student identity card gave his birthdate as 1st April - Fools Day.

When Lockerbie transpired on the winter solstice, there was an unusual planetary gathering in the heavens. A multitude of planets had converged in the sign of Capricon - The Goat :

“Pan was a composite creature, the upper part–with the exception of his horns–being human, and the lower part in the form of a goat. (…)The pipes of Pan signify the natural harmony of the spheres, and the god himself is a symbol of Saturn because this planet is enthroned in Capricorn, whose emblem is a goat” -Manly P. Hall, Secret Teachings of All Ages

Some people believe that magick runs hand in hand with astrological movements. Occultists, for example Crowley, would utilise planetary alignments within their work.

wiki - Fraternitas Saturni :

The Fraternitas Saturni was founded in the wake of the so-called "Weida Conference" in 1925. It succeeded the "Collegium Pansophicum, Orient Berlin" (Pansophia Lodge), a Rosicrucian magical order founded by Heinrich Traenker, a notable German occultist of the time. The Weida Conference was meant to consolidate Aleister Crowley's claims to be the Outer Head of Ordo Templi Orientis and the expected World Teacher. 

Some people consider that the tick in the Nike symbol alludes to Saturn.

When Megrahi left prison on compassionate grounds, in Scotland he was attired in black and white, with a Nike cap. He changed before arrival in Tripoli.
