(AL-MANAR Television - Beirut
Lebanon) With the announcement of the attacks at the World Trade
Center in New York, the international media, particularly the
Israeli one, hurried to take advantage of the incident and started
mourning 4,000 Israelis who work at the two towers.
Then suddenly, no one ever mentioned anything about
those Israelis and later it became clear that they remarkably did
not show up in their jobs the day the [four passenger aircraft
hijacking and crashing] incident [at the World Trade Center,
Pentagon and Pennsylvania] took place [on Tuesday, September 11,
2001].
No one talked about any Israeli being killed or
wounded in the attacks. Arab diplomatic sources revealed to the
Jordanian al-Watan newspaper that those Israelis remained absent
that day [Tuesday, September 11, 2001] based on hints from the
Israeli General Security Apparatus, the Shabak, the fact which
evoked unannounced suspicions on American officials who wanted to
know how the Israeli government learned about the incident before
it occurred, and the reasons why it refrained from informing
the U.S. authorities of the information it had.
Suspicions
had increased further after Israeli newspaper Yadiot Ahranot
revealed that the Shabak prevented Israeli premier Ariel Sharon
from traveling to New York and particularly to the city's eastern
coast to participate in a festival organized by the Zionist
organizations in support of the "Israel". Aharon Bernie, the
commentator at the newspaper, brought up the issue and came up
with a negative conclusion, saying "no answer". He then
asked about the clue behind the Shabak's position in
preventing Sharon's participation, and again without giving an
answer.
Bernie added that Sharon, who was delighted for
having his speech on top of the festival agenda, asked the head
of the organization to mediate and convince the Shabak to change
its position, but his attempts were in vein. The next day
after Sharon's secretary officially announced that Sharon would
not participate the incident [at the World Trade Center] took
place.
For its part, the Israeli Ha'aretz newspaper revealed
that the FBI arrested five Israelis four hours after the attack
on the [World Trade Center] Twin Towers while filming the
smoking skyline from the roof of their company's building. The
FBI had arrested the five for "puzzling behavior". They are said
to have been caught videotaping the disaster in what was
interpreted as cries of joy and
mockery.
