#1 The Hamas statement said the five charity organizations included in Jordanâs decision offered support to Palestinian orphans, widows, martyrsâ families and prisoners.

No mention was made of puppies or baby ducks. Regardless, it is good news that some funds are being frozen. It is coming from Jordan, of all countries. So they are starting to get the message. I would sure like to know what countries are cooperating with the freezing of funds and what countries are not. What about Switzerland, land of the high moral fiber bank account? Heh heh.

#2 LONG LIVE KING ABDULLAH! Nothing pisses a terrorists off more than not having any funds for bombs/bullets. Maybe this will make them accept peace? Also note that Iranâs Mullahs have cut off funding for some strange reason? Gee HAMAS what will your organization do for operating funds? Oh thatâs right, the UN still likes you. Go ask Kofi for a loan, I am sure you are good for it!

#3 Well, which one is it? Have they been frozen or not? Typical M.E. duplicity....talking out of both sides of their mouths until their lips fall off. I'm gonna wait and see what the real word on this is. Don't forget about all those crates of Jordanian ammo we found in Baghdad dated 2001....I just don't trust em.

#4 "... orphans, widows, martyrsâ families and prisoners." After, to be sure, we have paid for the bombs, so it may only be a penny each - but it's the thought that counts! Doesn't even the US Hallmark company say so?

#5 I'm kind of wondering now when some sort of terrorist event will occur in Jordan. Could be sometime soon, if they stick to their usual script.

#6 B-A-R
That is all those terrorists know is how to boom. Every time they do it to one of a country that harbors sympathy for them, like Saudi Arabia, they are making another nail for their coffins. They can keep it up. I like the posting that talks about 10,000 prisoners in Iraq. The jihadis are like the WW2 Kamikaze. They waxed and waned and fizzled out. If we keep popping the leaders, then there will be no more boomers. This includes the Mad Mullahs. They're fair game, too.

#7 AP: The Mad Mullahs should be Number One on the Hit Parade. With a bullet.
