Jordan's war on Zarqawi
According to David Ignatius, who is currently in Amman, Jordan is determined to get Zarqawi.
A senior official told me that Jordan is considering aggressive new anti-terrorism operations that will seek to capture or kill Abu Musab Zarqawi and his top lieutenants. When I asked King Abdullah about the campaign, he explained, "Zarqawi brought the war to our doorstep, and there's a feeling in Jordan that we'd like to bring him to justice." ...
Sources say that thanks in part to tips from Jordanian intelligence, U.S. forces captured Zarqawi at least twice over the past several years but let him go because they failed to identify him.
