A leaked memo from a briefing given to a U.S. lawmaker in January by Jordan's King Abdullah reveals plans for Jordanian special operations forces to operate in Libya alongside their counterparts from Britain's Special Air Service (SAS). Under the plan, Jordanian troops would help the SAS with language skills as "Jordanian slang is similar to Libyan slang," according to the document. The memo contains a number of other intelligence leaks, including Jordan's wish to let certain jihadist websites stay up and running in order to collect intelligence, and the king's view that Israel turns a blind eye to the al Qaeda-linked Nusra Front because of its combat effectiveness against Hezbollah in Syria. Abdullah also told legislators that he believes Turkish policy endorses the movement of terrorists into Europe.
