The end of the paragraph in question:
"More likely, it was because they were too busy braying, incessantly
and self-importantly, into their cell phones, arranging power
lunches and stock transactions, each of which translated,
conveniently out of sight, mind and smelling distance, into the
starved and rotting flesh of infants. If there was a better, more
effective, or in fact any other way of visiting some penalty
befitting their participation upon the little Eichmanns inhabiting
the sterile sanctuary of the twin towers, I'd really be interested
in hearing about it."
Seems pretty clear to me that he's not talking about the cleaning staff.
