The first story received relatively scant mention in the big media. It'll be interesting if this one does.

You don’t have to post any further details because I’m sure it’ll be on the news tonight.

NOT!

Jeeze! What ousted state leader who developed WMD's and hid WMD's could possibly have given 20 tons of explosives to Al Qeada?

It just popped up on Sky News Alert a few seconds ago. I am assuming it is new news!

I suppose there can be different expectations on what "chemical" means:

Qaeda-linked chemical attack in Jordan could have killed 80,000: officials

It just popped up on Sky News Alert! I don't know if Sky News is screwing around with their news or what. I have a Sky News Alert pop up and it just popped up.

Sky News just updated:

Jordan has foiled a chemical attack, linked to al Qaeda, involving trucks loaded with 20 tons of explosives that could have killed 80,000 people, according to the country's security officials.

Members of the terrorist network were arrested and others killed, officials said on state television.

Pictures were broadcast, claiming to show the chemicals the terrorists were planning to make explosives with, as well as trucks which were going to be used in a suicide attack against the General Intelligence Department.
