Jordanians defiant against Zarqawi's threats

Jordanians, even Muslim extremists, reacted defiantly Saturday to threats by Iraq's Al-Qaeda leader to attack more targets in their country and to kill their king. An audiotape purportedly from Abu Musab al-Zarqawi on Friday warned of further attacks against hotels, tourist sites and military bases in Jordan and threatened to kill King Abdullah II.

"He wouldn't dare," said Badour Ashour, a veiled 23-year-old in an Amman square, complaining that the terror leader had ruined the reputation of Islam. "Jordan will remain united like one hand and our determination is one. What he did in Jordan he won't dare to do again."

Jordanians rallied angrily against Al-Qaeda in Iraq and al-Zarqawi following the November 9 triple hotel attacks that killed 62 people, including the three bombers.

The group issued a statement defending its actions, and al-Zarqawi's audiotape gave further excuses, alleging that the target of the Radisson SAS bomber was not the wedding party -- where 30 people were killed -- but a meeting of American and Israeli intelligence.
