one of my old neighbour just passed away recently. just few days before she died suddenly, she mentioned that she keep seeing his relatives(already dead) in her dreams.. this is not the first time i heard of such things.. the other case that i encounter is my sec sch classmate mum, she also told her children that she is starting to see her 'dead parents' often in her dream and she thinks something is wrong..and 2-3 weeks later she got into accident and pass away suddenly as well. i find it very intriguing..that when someone is going to die suddenly(out of norm/illness)..they will see their 'dead relatives' coming to fetch him/her like preempting them?? i have my own fair share of 'deja vu', that was very long when i was small...i dreamt of something happening outside my house and a few days later the same incident really happened and i can vividly still recall having the same dream few days before..and have this strange feeling of keep recalling where i see this same scene. but my deja vu stopped also around that age and i no longer encounter it since.

The case for war has began.......I still remember the WMD weapon of mass destruction..........same same lobby and evidence is emerging now for Iran!! End of the world= Nuclear War in 21 Dec 2012? UN piles on proof of Iran's N-bomb plans But the international community's options for action are limited NEW YORK: United Nations weapons inspectors have released new evidence that they say makes a credible case that Iran is still trying to build a nuclear bomb, despite repeated denials. 'Iran has carried out activities relevant to the development of a nuclear device,' the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA) said, in the harshest judgment it has issued in its decade-long struggle to pierce the secrecy surrounding the Iranian programme. The report immediately raised the question of what - if anything - the international community, especially the United States, could do to blunt Iran's pursuit of the bomb, which could touch off a nuclear arms race among rival states and directly threaten Israel. Their options - from increased diplomatic pressure and sanctions to sabotage and military action - are limited. The US clearly hopes the report will bolster international pressure on Iran, and some officials said they were considering additional sanctions and ways to close loopholes in the existing ones. The UN Security Council has passed four sets of damaging sanctions on Iran, but veto-wielding members China and Russia oppose further measures. Israel has talked about military action, with President Shimon Peres recently saying an attack on Iran was becoming 'more and more likely', though it is unclear whether this was just to push the West into adding pressure and sanctions. The IAEA report, released on Tuesday, relies on evidence whose scope and depth are far greater than any the agency has made public before. While it did not give an estimate of how long Iran would take to produce a nuclear weapon, it said Iran had moved far beyond the blackboard to carrying out tests that are 'strong indicators of possible weapon development'. Among them were high explosives testing, detonator development to set off a nuclear charge, computer modelling of a core of a nuclear warhead, and development of a nuclear payload for Iran's Shahab-3 intermediate-range missile - a weapon that can reach Israel. The detailed revelations are a role reversal from 2003, when the US and Britain claimed Iraq was seeking to rekindle its nuclear programme. IAEA warned then that the Bush administration's case was weak and some evidence was forged. This time, it is taking the lead, arguing that years of study had led it to the conclusion that Iran engaged in an active programme to design nuclear warheads, among other technologies. In his report to its board of governors, IAEA director-general Yukiya Amano said the agency had amassed 'over a thousand pages' of documents - presumably leaked out of Iran - showing 'research, development and testing activities' on a range of technologies that would be useful only in designing a nuclear weapon. The agency, he added, had interviewed 'a number of individuals' involved in Iran's activities and had provided information that was 'consistent' with intelligence data provided by other countries. He said the agency had tried to engage Iran in discussions about the information, but 'Iran continued to conceal nuclear activities', including building a secret enrichment facility near Qum. Iran dismissed the report and warned that it would meet any military attack with equal force. Yesterday, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad reiterated that the country's nuclear programme was exclusively civilian and peaceful in nature, saying: 'We don't need the atomic bomb.' Iranian lawmaker Seyed Hossein Naqavi also warned that a military attack would make a battlefield not of Iran, but 'the entire Europe and the US.' A Foreign Ministry spokesman was later quoted by Alam website as saying that Iran remained ready for 'positive and useful' talks with world powers, but only in a climate of 'respect'. In Washington, a US State Department spokesman said: 'We just received this report. We're going to study it. We are not prepared to speak about any next steps at this point.' Germany rejected military strikes against Iran and urged increased diplomatic and economic pressure, while France supported boosting sanctions, as did Britain. Iran's chief allies, China and Russia, also issued cautious statements calling for diplomacy and dialogue. Both have made clear that they will not vote in the Security Council for any more sanctions - a stand that Moscow stressed yet again yesterday. A Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman said Beijing was studying the report, adding that it was opposed to the development of nuclear weapons in any Middle Eastern country. Some analysts said that while the IAEA report is its hardest-hitting to date, it does not contain the 'smoking gun' that proves conclusively that Iran is on the verge of building a bomb. 'This isn't new blockbuster information,' said analyst Peter Crail from the Arms Control Association in the US. 'It is just more detail behind the current assessments, that Iran has been trying to build different aspects of a nuclear weapons programme, but that it hasn't yet made a decision to put all those together and actually pursue a bomb.'
