A Jordanian court on Wednesday acquitted Qatada — known for his fiery pro-al-Qaida speeches — of involvement in a plot to target Israeli and American tourists and Western diplomats in Jordan more than a decade ago. The three-judge panel unanimously acquitted Qatada “because of the lack of convincing charges against him,” said Judge Ahmed Qattarneh. (AP Photo/Mohammad Hannon)
