How long can it take to do the tests?

Could this be why the King had to high-tail it back to Jordan today?

good guess.

this may be considered PART of a series of attacks on Jordan, by syria via their proxywar terrorist infiltrators, that were to occur while the king was out of the country with our president.
all the more reason for him to get back home and keep an eye on developments for the next 48 hours or so.

the feeling is, this was probably tip of the iceberg.
Jordan is at relative peace with israel.
Jordan trades with israel.
Jordan gets water from israel.
Jordan does coordinate some security issues with Israel.]
Jordan also acknowledges Israel's right to exist... etc.

no wonder syria wants Jordan destabilized.
Israel will not take lightly a threat against one of the few arab nations that want peace with them, and have worked towards it faithfully.

Syria is due for a bombing run.
So is Iran.
