US embassy cable - 03AMMAN8272

Disclaimer: This site has been first put up 15 years ago. Since then I would probably do a couple things differently, but because I've noticed this site had been linked from news outlets, PhD theses and peer rewieved papers and because I really hate the concept of "digital dark age" I've decided to put it back up. There's no chance it can produce any harm now.

Muasher's private office director Ali al-Ayed and deputy 
director Basheer Zoubi with copies of ref list of 37 
Jordanian prisoners detained in Iraq.  Noting that five 
Jordanians on the list were released a week earlier, al-Ayed 
promised to confirm the names of released prisoners.  Al-Ayed 
thanked the Embassy for following up on the issue, noting 
that the GOJ had received significant pressure from members 
of Parliament to resolve the matter.
