Thank heavens!
Yesterday, Anthon sent me this article:
http://www.nytimes.com/2012/10/22/world/middleeast/jordan-arrests-group-in-amman-attack-plot.html?_r=0
The article reports about 11 terrorists that had been planning since June to attack shopping malls and Western diplomatic targets in Amman. The attacks were planned to take place on 11/9.
Most attacks were mainly planned to be in the Abdoun neighborhood, where we lived in, where the US embassy stands and where the upscale mall is that we went to about 3x a week. During our last week, we also stayed at a very famous hotel where tons of Westeners stay at.
The terrorists were mainly targeting foreign diplomats and tourists...like us! :-S
I'm soooo grateful that they were still in the middle of planning while we were in Amman, and I'm especially thankful that the police caught them. Let's hope that there are not more of these people that are planning to blow up things in November.
It was sooo scary to hear about this. This group could have executed the attacks earlier... soo scary!
