23rd November 1985. EgyptAir Flight 648 is hijacked by three terrorists on its way from Athens to Cairo. The aircraft is diverted to Malta.

Once in Malta the terrorists start negotiations with the Maltese Government, at the time led by Prime Minister Dr Karmenu Mifsud Bonnici.

Some passengers are released but when the negotiations come to a stumbling block, the terrorists threaten to shoot a passenger every fifteen minutes. As passengers are shot, they are thrown off the plane.

The fifth passenger to be shot is Jackie Pflug. She is shot in the head and thrown off the plane like the others. But she is not dead...

wat language is this?

[samdalli]

the language spoken in this documentary is maltese

[kalindoscopy]

it's not egyptian arabic. . . it's the Maltese language. Oxx.

[MALTASWIFTS]

With Maltese being a semitic language which traces lots of its roots from Libyan/Tunisian Maghreb Arabic, and some other from Alexandria (Egypt) right upto Tripoli in Lebanon, it's no small wonder it is easily mistaken for Arabic. Over history, it went writen in Roman script and absorbing lots from Latin, Spanish, French,Mitalian and also English.
