Three Eclipses in July & August 2009

Right now we are under the influence of not the normal pair of eclipses (one solar, one lunar) that occur twice a year, but three (two lunar, one solar)  during this time of July and August 2009.  This is a somewhat "rare" event, but it happens more times than you might think.
A couple people have been talking to me about this event, and I want to put some perspective on it.  Apparently there was a "rare" triple eclipse right at the start of the Kurukshetra war of Mahabharata from ancient Indian history, I read on a website that "both world wars started on triple eclipses", and other heresay. It is not good to use only one isolated astrological event to explain significant world events, because there is always a multi-layered, complicated underpinning to such things.
I want to propose a reason why a triple eclipse can be so significant....
