Psychic Sean David Morton appeared on Thursday night to discuss his past and present predictions. He believes the world is just entering a particularly dark period, but he said the date of November 8, 2003, when there'll be a lunar eclipse, will be a "lynchpin in human history," for people to potentially choose a more positive course.

Morton suggested that both Saddam Hussein and Osama bin Laden are dead. According to an unnamed source of his, Hussein died in March in the Iraqi conflict, and bin Laden was injured in a caravan during a missile attack, but escaped and later died of medical problems in April of 2002. Within 30 days the US will stage a preemptive strike against Damascus and Syria, said Morton. He foresees this will be in reaction to weapons of mass destruction (including dirty nuclear bombs) being found in a valley on the border between Lebanon and Syria.

America will be in economic chaos by the end of 2010, Morton said, due to war and plague. Starting in 2005 there'll also be race wars in the U.S., he added. Eventually America "will come toe to toe with Red China in the last great war," sometime between 2015-2017. Morton predicted this would happen after China takes over much of the Far East, and when the conflict occurs the federal capitol of the U.S. will have been moved to Denver.
