SECURITY * Israel - Bus services protest lack of guards
Jerusalem,Israel -The Jerusalem Post, by YAAKOV LAPPIN - Apr 8, 2008: -- All of Israel's private bus companies threatened on Monday to remove their fleets from central bus stations across the country if the government failed to reinstate a special public transport security service aimed at thwarting suicide bombings... The companies, which include well-known names such as Metropolin, Metrodan, Kavim, and Connex, said they would find alternative stations - less prone to terror attacks - after Pessah... Last December, the Finance Ministry decided to terminate the Public Transport Security Unit, which manned bus stops and stations as a final barrier between would-be suicide bombers and buses...
