11-10-05 - Haaretz does complete about face on report Israelis were given advanced warning of Amman bombings But the LA Times corroborates their original story
11-10-05 - Four Palestinian Senior Officials Killed in Amman's Bombings General Basheer Nafie, chief of military intelligence in the West Bank, Mr. Jihad Fatouh, the commercial agent in the Palestinian embassy in Egypt, and Abed Elwan, the general director of the Ministry of Interior were killed in the bombing.
11-10-05 - Suicide Attacks Kill at Least 57 at 3 Hotels in Jordan's Capital The Israeli newspaper Haaretz reported that Israelis staying at the Radisson on Wednesday had been evacuated before the attacks and escorted back home "apparently due to a specific security threat."
Amos N. Guiora, a former senior Israeli counter-terrorism official, said in a phone interview with The Times that sources in Israel had also told him about the pre-attack evacuations.
"It means there was excellent intelligence that this thing was going to happen," said Guiora, a former leader of the Israel Defense Forces who now heads the Institute for Global Security Law and Policy at Case Western Reserve University in Cleveland. "The question that needs to be answered is why weren't the Jordanians working at the hotel similarly removed?"
Haaretz has since tried to back out of their original article from yesterday. See my related post on this in today's news. If this LA Times link doesn't work (may require login), try via Google News.
