The Paris Plot

Peter Taylor looks back to Christmas Eve 1994, when a group of Islamist terrorists hijacked a French airliner in Algiers and murdered three hostages before intelligence revealed they were planning to fly into a Parisian landmark. The chilling precursor to the attacks of September 11, 2001, was prevented when French forces stormed the plane, killing the criminals and freeing all remaining passengers
