Jordanian commandoes are headed for Iraq:

Strategy Page says that Jordanian commandoes are headed for Iraq:

Jordanians were very angry at the November 9th al Qaeda suicide bombings in Jordan. The attacks killed mostly Jordanians and other Arabs. Jordan, with hundreds of thousands of Iraqi Sunni Arabs in residence, and even more Palestinians, had been one of the few Arab nations left where most of the people approved of al Qaeda. No more. Jordanians now want revenge. . . this month, a team of Jordanian counter-terrorism commandoes was dispatched to Iraq.
.For more on the effects the recent Amman terror attacks had on Jordanians, see: Palestinians taste a dose of their own medicine.
