Remember the Babel Towers.
Well it is sort of like WTC in New York City.
In Chapter 14, And there followed another angel, saying,
Babylon is fallen, is fallen, that great city, because she made
all nations drink of the wine of wrath of her fornication.
In Chapter 16, And the great city was divided into three parts,
and the cities of the nations fell: and great Babylon came in
remembrance before God, to give unto her the cup of the wine
of the fierceness of his wrath.
Chapter 17, And upon her forehead was a name written,
MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND
ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH.
Chapter 18, And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come.
And cried when they saw the smoke of her burning (WTC), saying, What city is like unto this great city!
And they cast
dust on their heads, and cried, weeping, and wailing, saying, Alas, alas that great city, wherein were made rich all that had
ships in the sea by reason of her costliness! for in one hour is she made desolate.
And a mighty angel took up a stone like a great millstone, and cast it into the sea, saying, Thus with violence shall that great city Babylon be thrown down, and shall be found no more at all.
