Jordanian Bedouin hoist Al Qaeda flag in Ma’an - 104 km from Eilat. US, Israeli forces on the ready
DEBKA ^ | June 29, 2014 | DEBKAfile

“Ma’an is the Falluja of Jordan!” shouted thousands of Bedouin Saturday, June 28, in the southern Jordanian town of Ma’an. This legend was inscribed on the placards and flags they bore aloft with one hand in the name of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIS). In the other, they waved automatic rifles. Ma’an (pop: 50,000) is in a sensitive location: 218 km south of Amman, it also lies 104 km from the Israeli port town of Eilat and some 60 km from the main artery cutting south from northern Israel to the south. But although pro-Al Qaeda riots have been going on for days in Ma’an, capital of the southern province of the Kingdom of Jordan, military and security personnel have not been seen in its vicinity. The town has a history of violent unrest. It has in the past suffered curfew and was even, when the rioting got out of hand, stormed by soldiers firing live rounds and leaving dozens dead. For now, King Abdullah is conferring urgently with his army and intelligence chiefs on how to suppress the Islamist revolt in Ma’an without it spilling over into other Jordanian towns, especially Salt, Irbid and Zerka, which have large clusters of Al Qaeda followers.

any one , anywhere in the world , that is shouting Allahu Akbar these days , needs to be killed . The U.S. needs leadership that will take the fight to the enemy , with a mighty and merciless overwhelming force . We need to team up with Russia to get this done . Once and for all . The end of Islam . Worldwide .

Times up ....

And any strong young Jewish boys here in America need to get yourselves on a plane , fly to Israel and join the IDF . Right away . God and your ancestors will thank you . You can make a difference . Don’t delay . It’s time to put away youthful things and go to war . Hopefully the last war . It must be done . Now is the time .

Our leadership is currently standing with the Muslims because the political winds are ugly.
After all, they see the Muslims as having an absolute right to spread a “religion” based on theft lies rape and murder and it is rasis of you to oppose that.

The US must drop lots of bombs in a “Carpet” fashion on these scum and now. Everyday that Obama hesitates is another nail in the coffin for the West.

Only Israel stands between the Hoards and Civilization right now. America has its head in the sand and sand in its head with Obama [not] at the helm.

Jewish men and women can't just fly to Israel and “join” the Army. They have to be citizens of the State of Israel and THEN be drafted.
They can volunteer for many other tasks though.

He’ll never do it because he sides with the enemy who has the best ally in their pocket as possible.

Obama can only send up a single drone and take out one individual at a time. Anything more than that might look a bit aggressive. Obama is a an ineffectual, effeminate nim-nod, do nothing f*ggot.

Looks like Obama and Hillary’s Arab Spring is going to turn into an Arab Bloodbath.
