Fear for fate of Israelis in New York

A trailer running on CNN and Fox News listed an office for Zim-American Israeli Shipping Co. in the buildings. This information was apparently outdated, as the company relocated to new offices in Norfolk, Virginia, one week ago. Zim Chairman Dr. Yoram Sebba said, "Despite our own miracle, we of course are very sad about the massive loss of life throughout the United States."

Zim (Israel Navigation Company, Ltd.)

Established in June 1945 by the Histadrut, the Jewish Agency and the Palestine Maritime League to create a domestic fleet capable of weaning Israel off of her dependency on foreign shipping. Zim is the term used in the Bible to mean ships (Num. 24:24). In 1965, the first Israeli constructed ship, the Esther, was built in Haifa and delivered to Zim. Today, Zim is the 10th largest container shipping company in the world. It operates more than 80 vessels and has become the dominant force in Israeli shipping.
