What happened to your cocksure Yahoho-I-am-telling-you-so catastrophic Friday 13th October scenario? When nothing disastrous happened, you declared it was a lucky day! BTW, the explosion at Yemen is now being speculated as an accident (see below). Sana'a, Republic of Yemen Issue 41 - Oct 9 thru Oct 15 2000, Vol X Breaking News: American Ship explodes The citizens of Aden city were shaken and startled today because of a huge explosion of the US ship (Navy destroyer USS Cole) which took place in the containers terminal in Aden Free Zone, at 11:20 am this morning (Thursday). The explosion was thought at the beginning to have been caused by a terrorist attack, as a senior Pentagon official said, "We have every reason to suspect it was a terrorist attack, there is no reason to suspect it was anything else." However, reports of such a possibility were falsified by the Yemeni authorities, as the president explained to Secretary of State Madeleine Albright that preliminary information indicates that the incident was not a deliberate act. The US authorities who have expressed their worry of the possibility of a terrorist attack, but did not rush into concluding the validity of this assumption. They claimed that the reason may have been no more than the accident. The accident which caused the death of four US marine sailors and injury of 36 of crew members part of a total of 350. An FBI group has already been sent to the location where the explosion took place to investigate into the explosion's causes. The ship was supposed to refuel for 4 hours and leave towards the Arabian Gulf. In any case, the investigation would reveal the true reasons behind the explosion, and Yemen Times will follow it up and bring a comprehensive report this Monday.
