Subject: US knew of 9/11 strike in advance
JAMES DORAN, TIMES, LONDON: September 27, 2001
The author Salman Rushdie believes that US
authorities knew of an imminent terrorist strike when they banned him
from
taking internal flights in Canada and the US only a week before the
attacks.
On September 3 the Federal Aviation Authority made an emergency ruling
to
prevent Mr. Rushdie from flying unless airlines complied with strict and
costly security measures. Mr. Rushdie told The Times that the airlines
would
not upgrade their security. The FAA told the author�s publisher that US
intelligence had given warning of �something out there� but failed to
give
any further details. The FAA confirmed that it stepped up security
measures
concerning Mr. Rushdie but refused to give a reason.
