Israeli security expert confirms prior knowledge of bomb in Jordan

A quote from a former senior Israeli security official poses questions about this week's hotel bombings in Amman.
What did the Israeli govt know, and when did they know it?
Could they have stopped the bombings?
Why weren't non-Israelis evacuated?

From this Los Angeles Times article:

...comes an interesting quote:
"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?"

The tone of these posts is hinting - without quite going as far as pointing the finger - that it was another 'Zionist plot'. Well, if the Israelis were responsible, they'd hardly chose a hotel so full of Israelis that it had to be evacuated in a hurry, would they?
Reading this newsline gives the impression that there are two vastly evil forces in an otherwise peaceful world - AmeriKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKa and Israel. Oh, Zimbabwe doesn't matter, nor does Darfur, or Tibet, or Burma or (continued P 94)

blimey
the same distractions work every time don't they???
another less reported
eye opener is the statement
made to reporters that a bomb was in the false ceiling
of one of the locations....
crafty eh... those suicide bombers
once again show perfect timing
"The operation was executed by three suicide bombers who were wearing explosive belts. Two entered the hotels, the other blew himself up outside the hotel in a car," Deputy Prime Minister Marwan al-Muasher told reporters.
THE head of the Palestinian intelligence services, Bashir Nafeh, and a high-ranking official of the Preventive Security forces --Colonel Abed Allun was among 4 known Palestinians killed -
so we have Al-Zarqawi killing his own allies
by cunningly placing suicide bombers [wait for it]
in the false ceilings of hotels? er!!!
Jack Straw said on a visit..."We are all paying the price for being civilised."
Scary: Chinese members of a delegation from University of National Defense among the dead -
as a round up drags 120 off the streets the four alleged bombers
were named :
Abu Khabib, Abu Muaz, Abu Omaira, and Umm Omaira.
all Iraqis:
So now Bush has that Al Queda / Iraq link he's been so keen on
Perfect to take the heat off those Niger documents and that
nasty tasting threat of further indictments as - Condaleeza Rice

Of course, for those of you who can't bear not to believe that Israel is involved in every bad thing that happens worldwide, this will probably not convince you.

Not when we have the documented history of US/Israeli intelligence services and False Flags, we are at the whim of Fascists, and Israel and pro-Israel Extremists in the US are driving this Madness and Aggression.
