Why do you suppose 4,000 Israelis were absent from their jobs at the World Trade Center on September 11th?

Question

I wonder how they knew... What makes Bush so sure of himself?

I don't believe or trust anything anyone says, especially the news. I question everything.

Yes, I did read the link, and I post both sides of the argument. Do you think there could be any validity to this argument? Isn't it worth a look? Why was this swept under the rug for Americans not to see? These are just some questions I have.

I trust no news, media. There are three sides to EVERY story.

Answer 1

1) Urban myth.
2) Willful ignorance.

Answer 2

Israeli Intelligence Agents were in the USA posing as Art Students, but were really tracking the 911 Hi Jackers- Mossad warned Bush of the coming attacks, and so did Jordanian, and Russian , German Intelligence Agencies- the Warnings were ignored, even after Jordan told them the code name of the Attack was "Big Wedding" - My assumption is Mossad also warned Jewish Leaders in NYC to spread the word to stay away from the WTC.

Answer 3

That is an urban legend and it is false. Try checking urban legends on About.com, and this is what I found:

4,000 Jews Didn't Show up for Work at World Trade Center 9/11
The World Trade Center attack was an Israeli conspiracy and every Jew who worked there was warned in advance to stay home that morning.
Status: False

I always check to see if something is an urban legend or fact before I pass the information on.

Answer 4

Because their network includes moles inside Al Queda. History has told this people to stay in touch where ever you are in the world and they have built a apparatus to do just this. Jews take care of their own first and last. But do not forget about the others that knew not to go to work. Jews may have profitted by 9/11 but they did not instigate it.

Answer 5

There weren't 4,000 Israelis working in all of lower Manhattan then, let alone in the WTC. Where do people get these numbers?

UPDATE: The reference you use doesn't say there WERE 4,000 Israelis absent (which is a ridiculous figure if you know anything about who worked in the WTC). It says that an Arab source claimed it. So again, why do you take this number as gospel?

Answer 6

Probably cuz they and the bush administration knew what was coming, they israelis stayed home and bush went to texas to use the attack as a political tool to get the U.S. to invade Iraq. the same way that the english used Pearl Harbor to get the U.S. involved in WW ll, they new that the Japanese were gonna attack and said nothing!

Answer 7

i think that just coz the terrorists can't defeat a nation as great as Israel, they are trying 2 turn nother gr8 nation, the United States of America, against it. this is false propaganda and the terrorists will be arrested and subjected to imprisonment for life for their murderous crimes.

Answer 8

OMG, I didn't know that..... It's almost like they all stayed home because they knew. They were probably watching the news the whole time... I don't understand this world at all. I'm kinda sick over this.

Answer 9

Maybe a local buffet had a 50% off deal.

Answer 10

They wasn't. Someone is feeding your little brain lies.

Bush is sure of himself because he always does what he thinks is best for America.

Clinton always did what was best for Clinton.
