Too Close for Comfort


September 3, 2006 - Amman, Jordan

A gunman (read "likely terrorist") has opened fire on a group of tourists visiting the Roman Amphitheater in the Jordanian capital, Amman, killing at least one. (BBC, WaPo)


Just one day earlier - Amman, Jordan

Yours truly spent the day touring downtown Amman - including a stop at the Roman Amphitheater in downtown Amman.


It just goes to show... just because OIF was one day behind me and I was safely out of Baghdad, it doesn't mean I was somehow safe. The islamofascist grip reaches much farther than Afghanistan or Iraq and neighboring countries like Jordan... and as far away as countries like... the United States.

Remember 9/11? Or is complacency your middle name, too?

I recommend going out on a limb and supporting the War on Terrorism...
...rather than politicizing it for a cheap partisan win.
