Jordanian Source: Special Forces Positioned Along Syria Border
2013-08-28
[Ynet] A senior Jordanian official told Sky News in Arabic that special forces are positioned along the border with Syria ahead of an operation to seize chemical weapons sites. The source said the military operation will not be launched from Jordanian territory.
Whose special forces? Jordanian or... someone else?

Collectively, there are US Marines as well as earlier US Army SPECOPS in Jordan for joint country training drills + alleged anti-Assad Rebel training.

Unlike Jordan ...

#1  Internet rumor mill is that they were gassed as they crossed into Syria as part of something called operation logic...

Big grain of salt needed for that though.
