I'm sorry, but I see this as a bit of a stretch.
Even Dr Ice thought the same as you and wrote an article to that effect shortly after 9-11.
However, what swung me to come to this understanding was the impact it had on the "king", i.e. the President, of the USA and the King, i.e. the PM of Australia, in that they called on all of the nations of the earth to make war against the terrorists that had caused the calamity on that day which lead to the invasion of Afghanistan and Iraq, which has dominion over the Land of Babylon. What we are presently seeing is blurring of the lines that define what a terrorist is and the subsequent drawing of all the nations of the earth to assemble at Armageddon to go up against Jerusalem because of Israel's attempt at that time to rebuild the Temple. I could see how the latter part of this prophecy could be fulfilled over time.
It is okay with me, that you do not see it the same way, but time, possibly with 25 years or so, I hope, will prove me right in the end, but my passing may happen before then as my "aging" will over take my years.
Shalom
