He said there is going to be retribution like ISIS hasn't seen," said Republican Rep. Duncan Hunter Jr., a Marine Corps veteran of two tours in Iraq and one in Afghanistan, who was in the meeting with the king. "He mentioned 'Unforgiven' and he mentioned Clint Eastwood, and he actually quoted a part of the movie."
Hunter would not say which part of "Unforgiven" the king quoted, but noted it was where Eastwood's character describes how he is going to deliver his retribution. There is a scene in the picture in which Eastwood's character, William Munny, says, "Any man I see out there, I'm gonna kill him. Any son of a bitch takes a shot at me, I'm not only going to kill him, I'm going to kill his wife and all his friends and burn his damn house down." "He's angry," Hunter said of King Abdullah. "They're starting more sorties tomorrow than they've ever had. They're starting tomorrow. And he said, 'The only problem we're going to have is running out of fuel and bullets.'"
"He's ready to get it on," Hunter added. "He really is. It reminded me of how we were after 9/11. We were ready to give it to them."

I work in an office in the DoD that deals with some of that and I am going to start using that phrase every mention of Jordan I hear. The Eastwood doctrine.
Israel and Jordan are technically enemies but there are plenty of rumors of quiet cooperation. I know Abdulla sent one of his kids to Israel for emergency surgery a few years ago and his dogs go to an Israeli vet
Well I had to say it.
I like it..... Or the Capone doctrine... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UceGF3M56bE
O.K. Sounds like a serious discussion occured then.One would only bring up Obama if they wanted to discuss poor excuses.
We all know these Laundry Noggins tend to go off the deep end with threats (Rivers of Blood, etc) but at least, unlike our Marxist, Mooslim, Kenyan, Steaming Pant Load, he sounds like he has a pair....
I love it!
When he replied that he was, they admonished him to remain faithful and true to the faith. Some even told him the time would come that it would be safe for some of the family who wished to join him.
Jordan's leadership has played its cards wisely over the years -- sometimes in ways that hasn't endeared itself to the U.S. They were openly "neutral" in the 1990 Iraq War, for example.
Jordan ceded its claims to the West Bank in 1988, which had the unusual result of easing tensions with Israel while at the same time getting an enormous problem off its hands and into Israel's hands.
Did the King mention the Empty Chair routine? :)
