So why do Americans continue to use isil or isis or other terms when an insult is so readily available? Daesh it is.

Next to Israel, Jordan is the one country we cannot afford to be overrun by the nonsense in the region...

They are fighting back, with us, and their interests are obviously location and proximity to the threat...

IMO, I believe they are doing more than this country is against this particular threat...

Ask the PLO about his father. King Hussein had a playboy rep but an iron heart and soul. It appears his son is made from the same iron. If his army is still dominated by bedouin loyal to their king, the descendant of The Prophet,and if Japan supplies the money for the bullets and gas, ISIS will have many very very bad days. I would expect he will receive covert assistance from Bibi as well.

I doubt it will be covert if ISIS moves on the Jordanian border. I'd expect to see Israeli air strikes on ISIS columns. Jordan has 400 miles of border with Syria and Iraq, and I believe most of those border areas in Syria and Iraq are controlled by ISIS. I would expect Israel to be monitoring the situation like a hawk.

Well, I wouldn’t hold that against the king. Actually he seems fairly sane. Mo had a spiritual problem... was trying to use religion for the sake of mere domination. That invites not heaven but hell. But it does not have to carry on for dozens of generations. Jordan recognizes Israel and is Christian friendly, both of which are a huge spiritual plus for it.

He just returned to Jordan.

I had the MSM tell me yesterday (ABC News) that ‘Jordanian airstrikes were not popular in Jordan, because Muslims bombing Muslims, and Jordan might withdraw from taking action against ISIS because of it’.

Here’s what appears to be actually happening:

Jordan’s King Abdullah II Returns Home to Cheers After Swift Executions
http://www.nytimes.com/2015/02/05/world/middleeast/jordans-king-abdullah-ii-returns-home-to-cheers-after-swift-executions.html?_r=0

This from the NY Times of all places, you’d think the MSM missed choir practice or something. Jordanians are SUPERPISSED at ISIS.

Also note the strong expression of support from Abe of Japan.

Well it looks like Jordan is about to undertake “Daesh”-ing ISIS. On the rocks. Bible style. ISIS let its rabidness carry it just a bit TOO far.

Could not happen to a nicer bunch of terrorists. Grab a box of Jordan almonds and watch the show.

Some Muslims are more nominal about Islam than others, and either spiritualize out or gloss over the violent parts. Thank God for mercies small and large. One thing seems clear from history, if you want to git-r-done in Araby, you need royalty. None of this messing around with liberal democracies. This does not plug and play any more than your PC and a gramophone.

The king truly cares about his country. Obama does not.
