Jordan Jails Man Who Plotted Suicide Attack In Israel
2014-12-04
[IsraelTimes] A Jordanian man was given a six-month prison sentence Wednesday in a Jordanian court for plotting to attack Israel.

The man was caught in the summer as he tried to cross into Israel to carry out a suicide kaboom, Israel Radio reported.

The sentence came as Arab media reported this week that Jordanian security forces locked away
Youse'll never take me alive coppers!... [BANG!]... Ow!... I quit!
20 men on suspicion of forming a military wing and planning to smuggle arms into the West Bank to be used in terror attacks against Israelis.

The men, all members of the Moslem Brüderbund or Jordan?s engineers? guild, were arrested after two of the 20 returned from a solidarity visit to the Gazoo Strip where they received military training, according to Qatar
...an emirate on the east coast of the Arabian Peninsula. It sits on some really productive gas and oil deposits, which produces the highest per capita income in the world. They piss it all away on religion, financing the Moslem Brotherhood and several al-Qaeda affiliates...
-based al-Jazeera.

The satellite channel reported Sunday that the men attempted to train others in military operations to be carried out against Israelis in the West Bank. They also collected money for the purchase of weapons to be smuggled into the West Bank, or bought in the Paleostinian territory.

It was not clear from the report when the 20 were arrested.

The arrests came after tensions between the Jordanian regime and the Islamist organization peaked last month. The Moslem Brüderbund?s deputy secretary-general Zaki Bani Rsheid was arrested on November 21 over derogatory comments he posted on Facebook against the United Arab Emirates.

#2  Incredulous, if it wasn't US-aid time, it would be non-guilty.

#1  6 months? It takes longer to plan a terrorist attack. That's not even enough time to make new terrorist friends and learn new terrorist skills. A symbolic sentence.
