Last update - 13:11 10/11/2005 No truth to report of Israeli evacuations before Amman bombs By Yoav Stern, Haaretz Correspondent There is no truth to reports that Israelis staying at the Radisson SAS hotel in Amman on Wednesday were evacuated by Jordanian security forces before the bombing that took place there. The Israelis were escorted back to Israel by Jordanian security personnel only after the attacks had taken place, contrary to earlier reports. Al Qaida said Thursday that it had carried out the triple suicide bombings at the Radisson, Grand Hyatt and Days Inn hotels in downtown Amman, in which at least 57 people, including an Israeli, were killed. Representatives of Israel's embassy in Amman were in contact with local authorities to examine any report of injured Israelis, but none were received. There are often a number of Israeli businessman and tourists in Amman, including in the hotels hit Wednesday. Israel's counter-terror headquarters on Wednesday recommended Israeli citizens not travel in Jordan. Travel warnings regarding Jordan were tightened a few months ago, but many Israelis still visit the country. Many also visit other regions such as the Jordanian Arava and the ancient city of Petra. --- In cia-drugs@yahoogroups.com, "mark urban" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > odigo alerts two hours before 911 > netanyahu alerted before 711 bombs in london > and now this. > > Jim, please note that I am citing Haaretz, which, as far as I can > tell, is not some conspiratorial rag. > > Is it just me or does something stink to high heaven? > > > > http://www.haaretzdaily.com/hasen/spages/643661.html > > > > > Last update - 05:00 10/11/2005 > > > Israelis evacuated from Amman hotel hours before bombings > > By Yoav Stern, Haaretz Correspondent > > A number of Israelis staying on Wednesday at the Radisson hotel were > evacuated before the bombing by Jordanian security forces, > apparently due to a specific security alert.
