Al Qaeda bombed the Jordanian Embassy in Baghdad ?
Edited on Sat Aug-09-03 06:12 AM by kentuck
If so, does this prove George Jr correct? He did say Iraq was connected to the al Qaeda terrorists, did he not? But he did not tell us that they would come in after he disrupted and destroyed their social infrastructure?

But think about it. Why would the terrorists bomb their Arab brethren? Do they hate the Jordanians that much? Was it because they agreed to give the daughters of Saddam asylum?

Or was it possibly a CIA bombing? We have been known to do such things in the past, have we not? And what would we have hoped to attain from such a bombing? It was a huge bomb and the number of people killed were minimal under the circumstances - none of them Americans. Would we want the Iraqi people to believe that the al Qaeda or Saddam "loyalists" are not beyond killing fellow Arabs? Would we be capable of such a thing?

(edit spelling)

3. the group he is talking about..
Edited on Sat Aug-09-03 09:50 AM by StandWatie
is a group of people who go wherever the current Muslim hotspot is, they spread from Afghanistan to Chechnya to Kosovo to Somalia to Kashmir. If the US attacks Iraq it only makes sense that they would head out that way.

On edit: Jordan would make perfect sense, traitors are always #1 on the revenge list and from their perspective that's what the Hashemite monarchy would be.

5. They don't like Saddam
and they are traitors because they have been locking up people they are connected with and probably more importantly because they recognize Israel.

6. So who do you think blew up the Embassy?
And why would they not kill Americans if they make such a huge bomb?
