What about that.

Some lunatic killed these people.

The report below appeared on Al jazeera. The Israelis knew the bomber was coming. They should have told the Jordanians so they could have tried to stop them.


"A number of Israelis staying at the Radisson hotel in Amman were evacuated before the bombing by Jordanian security forces, apparently due to a specific security alert, according to the website of Israel's Haaretz newspaper.
They were escorted back to Israel by security personnel.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry, according to the website, Haaretz.com, stated on Wednesday that no Israeli tourists were known to have been injured in the blasts. Representatives of Israel's embassy in Amman were in contact with local authorities to examine any report of injured Israelis, but none was received. Often, there are a number of Israeli businessmen and tourists in Amman, including in the hotels hit on Wednesday.
Israel's counter-terror headquarters on Wednesday recommended Israeli citizens not to travel to Jordan. Travel warnings regarding Jordan were tightened a few months ago, but many Israelis still visit the country. Many also visit other regions such as the Jordanian Arava and the ancient city of Petra"
