Michel Hayek: 2011 Predictions in English
(This is a continuation post of “Nostradamus of the Middle East” )
Below is the list of the 2011 predictions of Michel Hayek, which I have translated to English. Some of these “visions” might not be clear to non-Lebanese readers.

Yes, those are all the predictions for 2011. As for "War of Peace", well, it wasn't a prediction. He gave this as a title for this year's set of predictions. He said the events of 2011 could be summarized by the notion "War of Peace". The host tried to get a clear explanation from him, but couldn't; he said that was how he "saw" the vision.
By the way, I just want to get one thing clear. This post is a continuation of another post, debunking the whole Michel Hayek phenomenon. I suggest reading it along with this one. Here's a direct link:

No I haven't done any serious research on the subject. I have written this article about fortune teller Carmen: http://www.freethinkinglebanon.com/2012/11/shamef...
But I don't think this is what you're looking for.
However, I read a book a few months back that might be helpful to you. It explains some fortune telling techniques as well as other superstitions. The book is called "Paranormality" by Richard Wiseman.
I picked up my copy from Virgin MegaStore in City Mall. Check it out. If it doesn't prove very helpful it will entertain you anyway.
Good luck in your research.. You've chosen a very interesting subject!
