1. Only 30% perdictions... but the thing is there were so many perdictions that the number is actually quite high... but i'm glad you asked the percentage because it shows the true answer reason being... if i said 3000 u might think that's alot but in reality he might of had made 10000 perdictions. Excellent!
2. Some of them are true and have come true. but some one also can argue that they are vague
3. Sorry don't know

I'm still trying to understand whether the predictions of Nostradamus are true or not. Most of us tend to dismiss his predictions as meaningless, jumbled verses that nobody can comprehend. I could imagine the frustrations in the faces of so many people who tried to interpret his verses through the centuries. Even myself felt a lot of skepticism on his predictions. But then, I decided that it's better for me to keep an open mind on any subject, even when it borders the impossible, rather than surrender to outright prejudice.
Now, I've found something fascinating in his predictions that's worth giving some thought:
In Nostradamus' period (the 15th century France), America haven't been discovered yet. The whole Middle-East is nothing but a vast desert inhabited by primitive, nomadic, camel-riding tribes dwelling on tents and mud-houses, who herd goats and sheeps to survive.
How did Nostradamus knew that the Middle-East would play such a huge role in the future times?. Why is it that so many of his predictions refer to conflicts and tumultous events in this desolate region, and that those events shall have profound effect on people's lives on the whole planet?.
Indeed, all other astologers and mystics during Nostradamus' time didn't mention anything about the Middle-East, because for them, the region is very insignificant to bother anyone's attention, let alone give predictions on it.

None, No. Nostradamus made a lot of wild predictions. Naturally there are so many different events happening his predictions can fit some. The whole thing is silly like the Da Vinci thing of a what you call it. Code. OO

I'll answer 2 and 3.
I believe the predictions came true because in the quatrains, he only gave 4 lines of information. Anyone can read into 4 lines of cryptic words.
As far as the coming predictions, it can't be deciphered because the just isn't enough information and we've yet to find an expert or a savant to decipher them.

Nostradamus probably left a letter to his descendants to dig him up on a certain day, then he held onto a book which 'predicted' the day in which he would be dug out.
That way, he gets admired for a looong time.
Nobody can predict what is coming, except God. And certainly, God isn't going to tell it to someone who stares into darkness.

Nostradamus got his predictions by looking into a jet black mirror. Sounds creepy and demonic to me and since all of his predictions have borne no good fruit (no one has been saved because of what he wrote) then I'd say they were of the enemy. Steer clear.

It's still under debate if any of his so called predictions have in fact ever come true . some say they have and some say they
have not . if you stand on one leg while whirling a chicken around
in a circle and mince words with Daniel and the Devil you might get one to come close to being true but not on a bet in my book .
he was indeed clever in his obfuscations.
peace out

none have come true, no he isnt real, and none will never come true..
he doesnt predict anything he just writes it in a way that anything can be applied to his writings to make it look like he predicted it.

The weaver of riddles cast shadow and doubt.
Reading, reading, words wiggle and shout.
The answer as question is juggled about.
Are they fishing for truth?, is an old boot a trout?
