Instead, al-Qaida in Iraq - the country's most feared Sunni Muslim militant group - lashed out at a string of Iraqi Sunni Arab politicians who held talks with Abdullah ahead of the summit.
"The traitors of Jordan's meetings, whether they know it or not, have entered today in a pact with Satan to fight the men of God," al-Qaida in Iraq said in its statement.

Sounds to me like alQaeda-in-Iraq knows what the US press refuses to admit- that the insurgency is floundering, its rats are leaving the terrorist ship, and the potential ones are refusing to get onboard.

OPINION: I hope you're right.

The global jihad is connected by the internet.
The internet is their global community.
Cut the jihad from the internet, limit their
fundraising and endless propaganda and the
global jihad will not end, but it will be diluted.

I think the hot spots right now (regarding the
global jihad) are Thailand, Somalia and North Waziristan;
however Iraq is stil one of the top 10 hot spots,
in my opinion.
