The Bojinka plot (Arabic: بجنكة; Tagalog: Oplan Bojinka) was a planned large-scale three phase Islamist attack by Ramzi Yousef and Khalid Sheikh Mohammed. The attack would involve a plot to assassinate Pope John Paul II, an air bombing of 11 airliners flying from Asia to the United States with their approximately 4,000 passengers, and a proposal to crash a plane into the headquarters of the CIA in Fairfax County, Virginia. Beginning on January 21, 1995, and ending on January 22, 1995, they would have placed bombs on 11 United States-bound airliners which had stopovers scattered throughout East Asia and Southeast Asia. sourceNote that the Bojinka plot involved ELEVEN commercial jets.
Now, jump forward 7173 days to September 11, 2014.
There are right now 11 commercial jets missing from the Tripoli airport:
Reports that 11 commercial jetliners are missing from the main airport in Libya's capital of Tripoli are raising fears that militants could use them in terrorist attacks to mark the 13th anniversary of 9/11 next week. source
