    Statement on the Terrorist Bombings in Amman, Jordan
    November 9, 2005

        Today's terrorist bombings in Amman were cowardly attacks on
    innocent Jordanians and their guests. These barbaric acts again
    demonstrated the terrible cruelty of the terrorists and the great toll
    they take on civilized society. I send my prayers and condolences and
    those of the American people to the families of all those killed in
    these attacks and to those who were wounded. To the people of Jordan and
    King Abdullah, we pledge our full support in
    their efforts to bring the terrorists to justice. Jordan is a key ally
    in the war on terror and will have all assistance we can offer.
