Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula

Al Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula planned to add poison to a bomb that was used in an assassination attempt that targeted a deputy Saudi interior minister, according to Jaber al Faifi, a member of the terror group. Faifi claimed the poison “can within seconds kill any person wounded by such an explosion.”
