Jewish neighborhoods in NYC were the original target in first WTC bombing in 1993: An Iraqi man who admits helping out with the first attack on the World Trade Center in 1993 says Jewish parts of New York City were the bombers' original targets.

In an interview with the U.S. television network CBS, Adbul Rahman Yasin says convicted bombing mastermind Ramzi Yousef first planned small-scale bombings in Jewish neighborhoods. But he says Youself decided an attack on the World Trade Center would be easier and kill more Jews. (Voice of America)
