Explosions Rock 3 Hotels In Jordan
At Least 18 Dead In Blasts In Amman, Jordan

POSTED: 1:50 pm CST November 9, 2005
UPDATED: 2:12 pm CST November 9, 2005

AMMAN, Jordan -- Police say at least 18 people have been killed in three hotel blasts in the Jordanian capital of Amman. Authorities said more than 120 were wounded.

The triple attacks sent ambulances screaming across downtown.

One police official said, "The attacks carry the trademark of al-Qaida." However, he added that "it is not certain," and that authorities are investigating the cause of the blasts.

The explosions rocked the Grand Hyatt, Radisson SAS and Days Inn hotels.

An American businessman who was at the Grand Hyatt hotel said a bomb went off in the lobby.

A black cloud of smoke was seen rising from the building in Amman's commercial district after the evening explosion.

and only an idiot would oblige them.

Would that be Bush, OB?


yes indeedie. (and anyone he bribes/seduces into going along with him) Ya see both parties have something in common.......they both love war. and aggession. Niether one will stop and THINK about more constructive methods to deal with the serious issues that perplex them.

How fecking tragic to see the victim numbers rise, as more nations are targetted.

btw: bush DID say: "bring em on " didn't he?? ( How to foster terrorism in one easy lesson) :evil: And bring em on they are......with the element of surprise in their favor too. So the cycle of violence continues........only now on a much broader scale.......and no nation is exempt now.

You are right OB. He did say bring them on. They are coming to him and anyone who supports him. The real victims are the people who are stuck in between.

When "W" said "bring them on" the was the sign of utmost cockyness and not to mention ignorant.

Peace and trying to make peace would be a lot better than uttering threats.

Really though, all "W" has done and seems to be concerned about is war and where to invade next. That is really bizzare.

pretty much everything he (bush) and his warloving buddies have done is provoke /incite terrorism. "bring 'em on " just fomalized the "invitation".


he and his cabal fail to see that their redneck style might work IN the u.s.... but does NOT work on the world stage......where intellect, information, larger grasp of nuances , and diplomacy is a mandatory requirement.

this is why I tend to use (and maybe overuse) the word INSANITY.........as that is exactly what it is. All the ingredients ( symptoms) are there. But it is insanity with intent.

The whole mideast is one big clusterfeck right now, if you ask me.

The only way I see peace there is to get a neutral third party(like Canada, Switzerland) to try and mediate and hopefully work things out.

Excuse me? There is no legal intent with insanity. That's the reason some people get away with murder - they're insane. BTW,
did you hear that Andrea Yates - the mother who drowned her children - is being retried?

Well since "W" is insane, shouldn't he be removed from office?

That must be a rhetorical question. Certainly you do not have the authority to make such a judgement.
