Jordan's king says Arab frustration fuels extremism

from Jordan's king says Arab frustration fuels extremism - Yahoo! News: Sat Jul 9, 2:57 PM


...Jordan's King Abdullah said the world must tackle Arab frustration over poverty and perceived injustices in the Israeli-Palestinian and Iraqi conflicts if it is to stem militant violence.

"... the Israeli-Palestinian conflict -- that is the first thing that these extremists use to raise the level of tension," Abdullah said in an interview with CNN on Saturday. "The second one is Iraq so if we deal with these core issues it does allow us to bring the level of tension down, but at the same time we do have to improve the lives of Arabs."

"... the international community needed to help tackle the root causes of extremism."

(Sandgroper: this is another voice of appeasement from the so-called "moderate" King Abdullah - "...tackle the root causes..." is synonymous with saying is that we should give in to terrorism's blackmail, and hope they won't find new demands afterwards....)
