Syria: Jordan king warns on Qaeda, chemical weapons

Syria is spinning out of control and in a worst case scenario the Al-Qaeda militant group could get its hands on some of the regime’s chemical weapons, Jordan’s King Abdullah said Wednesday.

“Our information is that there is a presence of Al-Qaeda in certain regions inside Syria, and has been there for a while,” he told CNN.

“And, again, one of the worst case scenarios as we are obviously trying to look for a political solution would be if some of those chemical stockpiles were to fall into unfriendly hands,” he warned.
