27. Hijackers were speaking English
Deena Burnett, who lost her husband, Tom, 38, a business executive, in the flight, said the voices of the hijackers were not calm, and that it was easy to distinguish when the Arab hijackers and the Americans were speaking.

Why should Deena Burnett mention that it was easy to distinguish when the hijackers were speaking arab?
It makes only sense to mention this when the hijackers were speaking English! I guess they were speaking English with heavy arab accent.
