| Pravda: Israeli WTC workers didn't show up for work |
| 2001-09-21 |
After it was announced that the WTC in New York had been attacked, the mass media of many countries, especially in Israel, hurried to avail themselves of the incident and declared mourning for 4,000 Israelis working in the towers of the World Trade Centre. All of a sudden, the Israeli workers stopped being talked about. It became clear later that they did not turn up at work that day when four passenger jets were hijacked in the USA and used in terrorist attacks. Nobody is talking about the Israelis being killed or wounded in the attack. According to Arab diplomatic sources cited by the Jordan newspaper Al-Wattan, the Israeli workers just did not appear at work that day, because they had taken a "hint" from Israeli secret police (Shabak). This fact caused concern among American officials who want to know how the Israelis knew of the attacks before they attacks were carried out and why the Israelis did not advice the US authorities about it? |
