I've Been Thinking:

Jordan recently convicted nine al Qaeda operatives.

The nine men were planning a prison break.
They were trying to break one of their "colleagues" out of prison.
The prisoner was doing time for planning an al Qaeda terrorist gas attack.

The nine men are all Jordanians of Palestinian descent.
Palestinians in Jordan are not welcome citizens, they are pariahs.
Four men are still at large.

We now know that:
al Qaeda continues to operate in Jordan and their plans are grandiose
the Jordanians are searching and finding these terrorists
these Jordanian/Palestinian/pariahs are actively plotting the destruction of Jordan

The significance of this information is enormous.
