One Comment on “Israeli Embassy was warned”
This has all been denied by anybody involved, and substantially discredited (subsequent versions of the story backed off the accusations). Indeed, it is a silly story on its face: what possible reason would British police have to warn Benjamin Netanyahu and not their own citizenry?
Interestingly, there is another rumor, circulated by private “intelligence” shop Stratfor, that claims that Israel warned the British on July 5 that there was the risk of an attack in London, but that the British discounted the warning because previous Israeli warnings had not panned out. This, too, has been denied.
