Couple things, maybe relevant maybe not.

Palm tree symbolizes: Righteousness and resurrection; victory

Also, I think I can make out the initials K.M.A., which is the Korean Meteorological Administration, which seems like a somewhat logical option in terms of an organization to be taking aerial photographs. That doesn't seem to be their symbol, though.

ALSO: I don't have time to check this more thoroughly right now, but I just noticed that it can also stand for the Kutiyana Memon Association (Karachi, Pakistan)

i was searching "the rabbit hole" line down in the corner and i found this

"The term is used in alternate reality games to describe the initial page or clue that brings the player into the fictional world of the game.
By extension, the term has also come to signify any event which triggers a completely unexpected, bizarre situation or paradigm."

dont know if this helps anything, but who knows...

I'm thinking that the Rabbit Hole refers to some sort of escape route for AQ and/or The Prince. After whatever is supposed to happen happens, they're going to need to get away, and that's their way out.

Still haven't found it, though -- the picture we have looks a lot like a Google Earth image, though. I'm scouring Karachi even as we speak.

I think the term started as a reference to Alice in wonderland, but I' not sure. also, I'm horrible for image-related stuff, so...

A new email
from JC

JC mentioned other directories that were corrupted. I sent him an email and asked what the names were.. maybe this will help. Here is his response

Quote:
"status"
"postmortem"
"reports"
"è¡¥æ•'"
"communications"
"progress"

Don't ask me about the 4th one, my Chinese is a little rusty...

new post on twitter

Deciphered using Trifid

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
johnjimjoebob may be onto something.


sorry for the double post.. forgot to edit previous one.

I believe he is refering to this post....

Try cross-referencing the satellite image with locations in relation to the man that JC mentioned on his Twitter page. Mahmoud, was it? I don't recall. Maybe something will turn up. No time for me to do it. Interview with MIT today. Woot. Wish me luck...



Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is the current President of Iran.

While looking for some locations for Mahmood, I found this interesting tidbit on Wikipedia:
Quote:
Sultan Bashiruddin Mahmood (or Bashir-ud-Din Mehmood, b. 1940) (Urdu: سلطان بشیر الدین محمود) is a Pakistani Nuclear Engineer, and Islamic scholar educated in Lahore and Britain. He studied for his masters degree in nuclear engineering Manchester. He has written several books on Islam and Science, especially as relates to the Quranic writings with the present day science. He has also had a focus that is somewhat eschatological, predicting war and apocalypse (in the book Cosmology and Human Destiny) in the years between 2008 and 2017 based upon sun spot activity.

Between '08 and '17 -- could this be what Red Monday is all about??

This man was also named as the first project director of the Pakistan Nuclear Bomb Program named Kahuta Research Labs. If you watched the video on google that JC gave us you would know that this is the program that A.Q. founded.


DANGER!!!! This man is on the Most Wanted list for the Federal Government right now.. careful on your searches for him.

Actually, I knew that before JC gave us the video. My point is that the time frame that Mahmood believes is going to be apocalyptic coincides with the timing for "Red Monday" and could be related.

I found a pretty good set of GE placemarks for the KRL facility here, but nothing resembling the sat photo that JC gave us. Could prove valuable later on, though.

That last comment made me shiver....like....four times in a row. The PM should've chosen to create his own characters.... Well, I can't search right now....I've got a ton of homework to do...
