| [AnNahar] A Jordanian court on Monday sentenced four men to jail on charges of membership of the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... group and for promoting the jihadist organization on the Internet. The four Jordanians were tossed in the clink Keep yer hands where we can see 'em, if yez please! in August and put on trial at the state security court last week. Two were given five years each in prison for IS membership and the other two were tossed in the slammer Don't shoot, coppers! I'm comin' out! for three years for "spreading the ideology of a terrorist group on the Internet", an AFP news hound said. The IS has set up a self-declared Islamic caliphate on territory it has seized in Jordan's neighbors Syria and Iraq, raising fears that they could also gain ground in the tiny desert kingdom. Jordan is one of five Arab States -- along with Bahrain, 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... , Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... and the United Arab Emirates -- taking part in the U.S.-led air campaign against the IS in Syria, where the group is headquartered. Joining the coalition has put Jordan in danger, analysts have said. In addition to sharing borders with conflict-hit Syria and Iraq, Jordan is grappling with its own home-grown Islamists question, and also hosts more than 600,000 Syrian refugees. King Abdullah has said Jordan's participation "in the war on terrorism is within the framework of protecting its interests and consolidating its security faced with the chaos in neighboring states and throughout the region". |
