The authorities in Jordan say they have arrested 11 militants alleged to have planned attacks on Western diplomats and shopping centres in the capital. Government spokesman Samih Maayta said the suspects were arrested in the past few days and were in police custody.
Mr Maayta said the men had brought in weapons from neighbouring Syria, and al-Qaeda operatives in Iraq had helped them manufacture home-made explosives. The plot was said to have been in preparation since June. Jordanian intelligence were monitoring the plotters, including their experiments with explosives, a senior official told the BBC's Frank Gardner.
The official told the BBC "this was an al-Qaida plot timed for the anniversary of the 9 November attacks on Amman in 2005".DON'T BELIEVE THE "I GOT OSAMA AND WE GOT AL QAEDA ON THE RUN" BULLCRAP.
OBAMA HAS NOT MADE US, OR OUR ALLIES, OR THE FREE WORLD SAFER.
