Trends: Mark Harlan, Israel, September 9 Spike
What This Image Shows
A Google Trends capture. Search term Mark Harlan, region Israel, window Past 90 days, All categories, Web Search. The graph runs July 23 to October 9 with a single sharp peak labelled "Sep 9, 2025. Mark Harlan. 100."
This is the chart the whole sub-cluster was built toward: a spike in Israel dated the day before the shooting. It is also the one that most needs its context stated.
The crew list gives the name as Michael R. Harlan, not Mark. Mark Harlan is the name of a well-known university athletics director in Utah, which is a far more probable driver of Utah-adjacent or sports-related search traffic than anything in this case -- and September is college football season. The region filter is Israel, but sports and news interest crosses borders, and Trends does not report absolute volume, so a peak of 100 may represent a very small number of queries.
A September 9 date would also require assuming foreknowledge to be meaningful. This site does not make that assumption, no evidence supports it, and no person named in these charts has been shown to have any connection to N1098L or to the events of September 10, 2025. See the cluster overview.
