Jordanian authorities say they broke up alleged al Qaeda plot to unleash deadly chemical cloud in heart of Amman.

This just came to me via CNN.

There had been reports earlier last week about something potentially happening in Jordan. I'm glad they were able to stop it!

That's the second time within the last ten days Jordan has discovered a chemical attack coming out of Syria...now, we have SOME idea of where Saddam's stash is hidden.

Well, reading the story, I wonder why they put it out as an alert. They found the stash of chemicals on the 20th, which we already knew about. I guess US Intelligence was helping investigate and they said the attack was days away from being carried out.
