Jordanian military intelligence relayed information that Hamas had recruited a bomb team in the kingdom. It was on its way to cross into Israel for the strike. Israeli and Jordanian border troops are on a high state of preparedness. The potential targets are the southern port of Eilat, its Arava main road link to the north, the Dead Sea, or the Beit Shean Valley on the Jordan River. This information led defense minister Amir Peretz to announce the closure of the West Bank Thursday, July 20.
Israeli security officials have grounds to suspect that the latest Hamas terror initiative is coordinated with Hizballah’s war in the north via the Lebanese group’s operational officers stationed in Nablus and Gaza

We are crazy to think that if this escalates any more that these same people won't be trying to employ the same tactics over here. We need border securty now!

Fixed the typo. Islam is a religion of peace. Just ask our president.

It's nice to see Jordan on board with the civilized world. King Abdullah(and his late father) has earned my respect many times over.

You ae right with regards to Jordan helping civilization.
I don't understand though why the mooselimb crazies don't target Jordan for assisting the, "evil Israelis"?

Well, they have struck Jordan a few times-the hotels at the resorts were targeted and of course, the late Al Zarqawai threatened to kidnap King Abdullah's family and torture them. I think King Abdullah is a pretty tough guy and stands on principle rather than fear of what the nuts would do to him or his country. If you get caught in Jordan doing something you shouldn't be doing, well, let's just say they get to interrogate a little more thoroughly there then our military does.

Shows again that these folks in the mid east understand one thing, strength.

That is exactly it. In a country that is predominantly "Palestinian" populated the Hashimite tribe has managed to keep power there.

I agree...they seem to be more progressive and want to join the rest of the world in the 21st century

Wow, it now appears that we have a whole herd of aeronautically inclined swine.
To: LoudRepublicangirl
