Spiros Kagadis
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Spiros Kagadis (Greek: Σπύρος Καγκάδης) is a 9/11 conspiracy theorist who has authored and advertised that he had forseen the 9/11 strikes on the following grounds:
1) He had written a short article on a financial newspaper on 23/12/2000, indicating that the strike happened "about 9 months later".
2) The newspaper printed the date as "28η.10.2000". Kagadis confused the typeface of the greek letter eta (η) with the latin n -- alluding the significance of the letter "n" in relation to New York.
3) His article was entitled as "Ο Άγγελος του Τρόμου" meaning "The Angel of Terror" (referring to an anonymous poster who sent Kagadis negative financial foresights). Kagadis made a connection between the letters "O" and "A" to Olympic Airways (a greek airline company) alluding a foresight of the terrorist airstrikes.
4) He pointed that the shape of his article on the newspaper, if reproduced twice, would bear a resemblance to the twin towers.
5) There was a small article on the same newspaper referring to some financial information on the greek stock exchange downfall sent by Kagadis. The title of the article is "ΠΟΛΥ ΚΑΚΟ ΤΟ 2000" (meaning, year 2000 was very bad). Kagadis inserted the latin letter y inside the greek word "ΠΟΛΥ" (very) and changed the letter ypsilon to iota turning the word to "ΠΟyΛI" (bird). He then alluded a connection between his article and the airplane strikes as if they were "bad birds".
6) The shape of the same article was alluded to connect to the US Pentagon strikes because the Pentagon shape can fit on the square shape of the article.
By holding beliefs which the vast majority of his contemporaries would consider false and clinging to this belief in the face of all counterarguments or evidence presented to him, Kagadis is considered a crank and he is being referred six times at the Greek crank watch site, poulametrela.
