“Jordan better be tough or the populace will will whip up a uprising against the King.”

Oh, there will be an uprising alright. But only if the puppet king gets tough on the headcutters. 90% of Jordan is ISIS-lite, dominated by a milder form of Hashemite dictatorship. One wrong move and the king gets his head cut off.

We shall see. I believe it’s close to dawn in Amman, right now. Let’s see if Jordan begins executions...

Time for Jordan to hold a mass hanging of ISIS prisoners which would make the one held in Mankato, Minnesota on December 26, 1862 look like a small job.

Hanging? That ship has sailed. Get em drunk, sew them in pig carcasses and drop them in the sea. And make sure that it goes up on YouTube.

I heard on TV that Jordan has scheduled to start the executions... in about 10 minutes.

Dawn in Jordan, about 11:30 PM East Coast Time, 8:30 PM Pacific

Hung by the neck until dead

Times of Isreal reports:

Sajida al-Rishawi, a would-be suicide bomber, and Ziad al-Karbouly hanged in pre-dawn execution by Amman.

The concept of zero is reality, and was discovered by morons- not invented, or even close to developed. Really, BB- that is your best proffer? Good swing and a miss...

Here from Wikipedia:

“The concept of zero as a number and not merely a symbol or an empty space for separation is attributed to India, where, by the 9th century AD, practical calculations were carried out using zero, which was treated like any other number, even in case of division.” (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/0_number)

Notice that it was not Muslim Arabs, which was the point. Mathematics developed over time, with the addition of many new concepts and techniques. The “development” of using zero in mathematical calculations has been wrongly attributed to Islam.

All math is reality. Do you have any point, or anything of value to add?

The reality existed. Even before, Wikipedia. Care to add a comment, from your own self?

It seems to me that you are quibbling over terminology, or perhaps really are unable to grasp the concept being discussed.

Are you aware that Arab Muslims have been credited with developing the concept of zero as a number, rather than just the absence of a number? Islam is often criticized for suppressing honest inquiry, and therefor stifling innovation. The development of the use of the zero in mathematics is often offered to demonstrate that Arab Muslims did contribute significantly to human knowledge.

Well in fact it wasn’t them. When they conquered areas in Northern India, books were translated into Arabic. Europeans first picked up this technique from Arabic language books, so this innovation has been incorrectly attributed to Arabs under Islam.

If the problem is that the mathematical concept itself is too abstract for you to comprehend, then I can’t help you, and am not interested in arguing about it.

We are way off topic, and the Jordanian prisoners have already been executed.

Looks like they did execute a couple of high profile Jihadists. It will be an interesting couple of weeks to see if Jordanian elites ramps up anti-ISIS mode, or start scaling down.
