		PRINCE HASSAN: I cannot understand the anger in terms other than a lack of inclusion on the one side in English society, and I think one can't be categorical about separating what's happening in situations of occupation in Afghanistan or in Iraq or in Palestine from the general feeling of frustration.
		PRINCE HASSAN: Well, I think it is, geopolitically, the crucial issue that has to be attended to, but there is no crisis avoidance thinking, unfortunately, in our part of the world, and in the world as a whole.
		PRINCE HASSAN: I think they certainly understand the mentality of the terrorist and I think that, in the war on terror, I'm actually supportive of all the measures that are taken in that regard.

		Prince Hassan cited an academic study which suggested the vast majority of suicide bombings were designed to put pressure on democratic governments for a change - usually a withdrawal of troops from an occupied territory.
		Prince Hassan pointed to analysis of all suicide attacks worldwide from 1980 to 2004 by Professor Robert Pape of the University of Chicago which found that "overwhelmingly suicide terrorist attacks are not driven by religion as much as they are by clear strategic objectives to compel governments to withdraw military forces".
		The prince said: "The purpose of a suicide terrorist attack is not to die, it is to kill, to inflict the maximum number of casualties on the targets, in order to compel that target society to put pressure on its government to change policy," he said.

		But Prince Hassan is also known to suspect Arafat personally and the PLO more broadly -- skepticism born of the bitter experiences of Black September 1970, when he and his family were targets of Arafat's murderous organization.
		American concerns that Prince Hassan cannot come to terms with Jordan's Palestinians, which blur the distinction in the prince's attitudes toward the PLO and Palestinians, suggest a tendency to see all Palestinian politics uncritically through the PLO's narrow lens.
		Jordan needs a strong leader to navigate through trying times as it deals with democratization and faces a resurgent Saddam, an emerging PLO entity, and a regional climate as uncertain as any in decades.
