Jordan

I reported in a previous post that “Debka (pinch of salt) informs that Jordan is on maximum alert for a possible Al Qaeda attack”. Apparently they were right.

Aljazeera on Thursday said:

Jordan has arrested 17 suspects linked to al-Qaida network in Iraq and an affiliated Saudi group who have been plotting to attack US military personnel in the kingdom. Security sources said on Thursday interrogation of the suspects revealed that six of them had ties with Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, head of the al-Qaida network in Iraq, while the others belonged to an underground Saudi group known as the Brigades of the Holy Shrines.
