Amman Attack Sours Jordanians on Al-Qaeda
(Jerusalem Post) Orly Halpern - "These attacks have caused a significant change in Jordanian public opinion," said Fares Braizat, head of the public opinion polling unit of the Center for Strategic Studies at the University of Jordan. "Most people now have a very unfavorable view of al-Qaeda." On Thursday, a day after the bombing, Islamists, Arab nationalists, Baathists, and members of the professional unions - all of whom strongly oppose the government and support armed resistance - demonstrated in the streets of Amman, calling for the death of terror leader Zarqawi.
