One thing nobody could ever predict is the NY Post (as bad as the NYT is, there is a difference) being referred to as a "credible" source.

The Kursk nuclear submarine disaster: In 1980, Vanga said Kursk will be “covered with water and the whole world will weep over it,” claiming the disaster would happen in August 1999. The Russian sub sank in August 2000, killing all aboard.

Who could predict a submarine covered in water? Oh wait, she predicted a city covered in water. Close enough.

ISIS: The Bulgarian is also said to have predicted the rise of terror group ISIS.

Not even a totally unrelated quote to back this one up.

Syrian gas attack: Before she died, Vanga warned of a showdown in the country, where “Muslims would use chemical warfare against Europeans.” This is thought to be similar to the suspected gas attack that President Bashar al-Assad launched against his own people.

The famously European people of Syria.

Brexit: While some conspiracy theorists claim Vanga predicted Brexit, she actually incorrectly said Europe will “cease to exist” by 2017, something which obviously has not happened.

Unlike everything else on the list, of course.

She claimed the 44th US president — who turned out to be Barack Obama — would be black.

LOL When? I'll take back all my skepticism if there's a shred of evidence she ever said anything even remotely like this.

However, she also said he or she would be the last president, which again did not happen.

Well it's not like the two since really count.

In 1989, she claimed the “American brethren will fall after being attacked by the steel birds ... and innocent blood will be gushing.” Some believe this is a reference to the September 11 attacks on the US in 2001.

Some believe this predicted 9/11 (and it's a lot more specific than she is):

Vladimir Putin will win the 2018 election. In 1979, during a meeting with writer Valentin Sidorov, Vanga said: “All will thaw, as if ice, only one remain untouched – Vladimir’s glory, glory of Russia.”
|
It's certainly highly unlikely another glorious Russian leader would ever exist with such an obscure name.

World War III: Shortly before her death, the elderly woman said: “Russia will not only survive, it will dominate the world.”

She predicted a world after WWIII?
