Al-Qaida: Jordan suicide attackers included husband and wife
An internet statement today in the name of al-Qaida in Iraq claimed the deadly hotel bombings in Jordan were carried out by four Iraqis, including a husband and wife “who chose to accompany her husband to his martyrdom”.
“All of these are Iraqis from the land between the two rivers,” the statement said, alluding to Iraq’s ancient name, Mesopotamia.
