Babylon is in modern Iraq, one of the countries invaded by the US in the aftermath of 9\11
Both claimed to be the highest towers in the world
Both are in populated influential trade centers
The Babylon myth with different languages VS the War on Terror, affecting policies worldwide, growing tensions and fear in the post-USSR world, now - post 9\11 world
The pronounced reasoning behind the 9\11, told as a fatwa by Osama, starts as follows: All these American crimes and sins are a clear proclamation of war against God, his Messenger, and the Muslims. Not that far from what caused the abrahamic god to prank Babylon.

This connection is loose, lacks context and mixes very different things together, but I haven't got a pleasure to shower any longer than that to think things out.

How BS is it?
