Speak Now, Or Forever Hold Your Peace

So I had to do a report on Nostradamus, which is a way cool name, and I thought I'd share with you some of his prophecies:

The Fire of London: his exact words were "The blood of the just will be demanded of London, Burnt by the fire in the year 66 (1666)," in the year 1666, London was consumed by the flames of a single spark, destroying the city in 5 days, only 6 were killed.

The French Revolution: "Before the war comes, the great wall will fall, The King will be executed, his death coming too soon will be lamented. (The guards) will swim in blood, Near the River Seine the soil will be bloodied." He's so poetic. On July 14, 1789, the walls of the Bastille were stormed, and, needless to say, the king was killed by guillotine on the banks of the Seine.

Emperor Napoleon: "PAU, NAY, LORON will be more of fire than of the blood, To swim in praise, the great one to flee to the confluence. He will refuse entry to the Piuses, The depraved ones and the Durance will keep them imprisoned." The first three words are an anagram and when rearranged spell Napaulon Roy, or King Napoleon. The more of fire refers to war, and the 'of the blood' means of noble birth; so all in all he's saying that he will come to power by force rather than inheritance. The 'Piuses' are the Popes Pius VI and Pius VII, whom were both imprisoned under Napoleon.

Hitler's Reign: this one received drew a rather long speech from the old philosopher "Beasts ferocious with hunger will cross the rivers (Germans invade France), The greater part of the battlefield will be against Hister (aka: the Danube, where Hitler was born). Into a cage of iron will the great one be drawn (tanks), When the child of Germany observes nothing.
In the year very not far from Venus, The two greatest ones of Asia and of Africa: They are said to have come from the Rhine and from Hister Cries, tears at Malta and the Ligurian sea-coast. (describing Hitler's conquests in Spain and Africa)
Liberty will not be regained, It will be occupied by a black, proud, villainous and unjust man: When the matter of the Pontiff is opened, The republic of Venice will be vexed by Hister. (Hitler is bad)
The shocking and infamous armed one will fear the great furnace, First the chosen one, the captives not returning The world’s lowest crime, the Angry Female Irale - Israel - not at ease, Barb, Hister, Malta, and the Empty One does not return. (Hitler is bad and kills people)"

Louis Pasteur: he actually gets the names right in this one and everything "The lost thing is found, hidden for so many centuries, Pasteur will be honored as a demigod This happens when the moon completes her great cycle, He will be dishonored by other winds." All this is saying is that Pasteur will be honored for his discovery but some will try to discredit him.

Kennedy Assassination: "The ancient work will be accomplished, And from the roof evil ruin will fall on the great man: They will accuse an innocent, being dead, of the deed: The guilty one is hidden in the misty copse." This prophecy greatly pleases all those who claim Oswald's innocence in the Kennedy Assassination, if it is assumed that the innocent one accused is referring to him.

Nostradamus has also predicted future devastations to take place November 25, 2015; then on November 23, 2016; and again on December 7, 2044. So if the world doesn't end December 21, 2012, at least we'll still have something to look forward to.
