[So Cal Rocket]

Are you sure this isn't from last week?

[aardvark1]

Are we still looking for WMDs?

[Rummyfan]

Another attack thwarted, or is this the same one that was reported last week?

[camle]

[tractorman]

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

NOT!

[Quilla]

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

[Rebelbase]

This happened last Sunday.

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

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

[Semper Paratus]

80,000? Who's saying this Amman Al?

[areafiftyone]

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.

More to follow...

If this is the rumored VX Nerve Gas that was rumored last week, it will probably be traced directly to Saddam Hussein. If my understanding is correct, only Iraq possessed that chemical weapon in the Mideast and never accounted for what happened to their stash. In related news, Tom Daschle (and JFK) are deeply saddened.

I sent it to Drudge. Hope it gets some play.

[UnbelievingScumOnTheOtherSide]

After reading it, it appears that someone in the mainstream media just woke up and noticed the report from last week and pulled the fire alarm.

[The Bandit]

Be interesting to learn where the Chemicals come from.......Saddam?

[RightWhale]

What? Again? Will they do this every week?

[macamadamia]

Spring......a time for lovers, poets and funny smelling clouds.

[OXENinFLA]

I think I've solved your quandary.

Sounds like they're airing a confession now.

AMMAN, Jordan -- State television aired confessions Monday from al-Qaida suspects who allegedly planned chemical and poison gas attacks against the U.S. Embassy and other targets in Jordan.

----snip----

The suspects scheduled to appear on Jordanian television were linked to a purported conspiracy that officials announced two weeks ago had been foiled. The officials said they had arrested an unspecified number of al-Qaida suspects in two raids in late March and early April.

Last week, officials said four other terror suspects believed linked to the same conspiracy were killed in a shootout with police in Amman.

Government officials have said the suspects plotted to detonate a powerful chemical bomb targeting Jordan's secret service and use poison gas against the prime minister's office, the U.S. Embassy and other diplomatic missions.

Had the chemical bomb exploded, it could have killed at least 20,000 people and wrecked buildings within a half-mile radius, the officials have said.

They said the suspects, who allegedly entered Jordan from Syria, have confessed that the plots were hatched by Jordanian militant Abu-Musab al-Zarqawi, thought to be a close associate of al-Qaida boss Osama bin Laden.

I wonder how CNN feels, now they probably know that they were scooped here over a week ago? LOL! Some newscasters they are!

Deja vu all over again?
