Prince Harry and pregnant wife Meghan Markle cheated death when lightning zapped their private jet — but security experts believe they were targeted in a terrorist attack! “There is a long history of using the weather as a weapon in warfare,” National Security Agency consultant Wayne Madsen told The National ENQUIRER.

But lightning rarely, if ever, strikes a plane the size of their 20-passenger Dassault Falcon 7X — and security sources suspect electrical conductors were placed on its fuselage to attract the potentially deadly bolts.

Officials are calling the chilling midair mishap “an accident,” but at least one expert labeled the statement a standard misdirection tactic. “The authorities will put out a false narrative,” said Gary Moskowitz, a Jewish Defense League counterterrorism expert who was trained in Israel.

“He not only fought against al Qaeda and the Taliban in the war,
his wedding to Meghan has been a symbol of English pride," Madsen continued. "Taking the couple out would be a coup for the terrorists, who have ramped up their attacks in England in recent years.”
