"Arab nationals" planned to assassinate Israeli President Katsav and simultaneously destroy the Hungarian Holocaust Museum to be inaugurated today. From the Jerusalem Post.

Note: It's now been about 1 hour and 15 minutes since this crossed the AP wire and the NY Times does not have it on it's website yet. Clarin of Buenos Aires already has it at the top of their page. Strange.

UPDATE: I must give the Times their props (proper respect) for holding off on this story. It seems that the attempt to bomb the Hungarian Holocaust Museum was perhaps not connected to the President's visit, and only a coincidence. Not that he would be any less dead.
