Days Inn is NOT on the same street, it is in Rabia, mish? The explosion rocked our home in that area.

I disagree with a lot of what you choose to profile on your blog but no one, no community, deserves to have their citizens murdered to avenge grievances or to further political gains. I’m so sorry terrorism has touched your home.

I know that I’m a Christian American here as a minority but I wanted to say, though I have a different faith and I am in a hated country by many of the nation of Islam. I’m praying and my family too, for the many people affected in the explosions in Jordan. I pray for peace for the people there of all race, religion and creed. Your loved and appreciated and it hurts our feelings that you’ve been targeted by terrorist to hurt Americans. I’d be proud to stand next to anyone that believes in peace and protect it with them. May your beliefs and acts of kindness bless you. Bobby

about 59 are now dead, MOST of them are Jordanians, but Jordan, right the next morning (Nov. 11) went back to absolute normal, yes the families of the dead are mourning, and yes amman is mourning, but nothing like that is going to shake us… amazingly how something that has become so typical in the area, shifts 100% of society towards one side when it actually hits their home
I am not going to deny that we used to look at other bombings in rather an indifferent view, and it is very scary to me the way I feel now, I feel like we are all seeing things from only one RED angry angle, that we are missing something.
Today is Nov 12, the third mourning day, tomorrow is a new life, I am sure we will see things more clearly
