Jordan is determined to fight terrorism in all
forms and regardless of its sources by

• Denouncing and condemning terrorism and stressing
  on not being subjected to terrorists demands, not
  to allow the use of Jordanian territories as a
  base for any terrorist activities, rejecting the
  use of terrorism paper for political purposes. In
  connection therewith, Jordan has signed a number
  of international and Arabic terrorism related
  agreements, such as the UN Agreement and the
  Arabic Agreement. Jordan has also effectively
  participated in the international conferences
  aiming at fighting terrorism and reinforce
  international cooperation in that respect.
  Moreover, Jordan played a vital role in combating
  the most dangerous organizations such as
  disintegrating Osama ibn Laden networks,
  revealing the methods of operation of his groups,
  infiltration of and fighting the Abu Nidal group
  and causing effective dissection inside it and
  contributing towards preventing terrorist
  operations at the international level and early
  detection of such operations.

• Identify the real causes and motives of
  terrorism, political, social and economic and
  find proper solutions therefor through
  international and regional organizations.
• Enhance the activation of security coordination
  among the countries concerned with fighting
  terrorism so as to finally uproot and dry out its
  sources and destroy its bases and infrastructure
  wherever it is located.
• Follow up the recommendations and resolutions of
  international security conferences regarding
  terrorism and bring them into existence.
• Jordan will exercise pressure on the terrorism
  sponsoring and supporting countries and urge them
  to take actual measures in order to exterminate
  the terrorism infrastructure and not to be
  content with taking informal measures that do not
  touch upon the core of the problem.
• Jordan is embarking on setting specific controls
  for granting political asylum right and
  especially in the western countries to prevent
  terrorists or those who were involved in
  terrorism from benefiting from such right.

• Define the sources of finance and besiege the
  organizations offering funding for terrorism
  different purposes with the aim to dry out
  financial resources for the terrorist
  organizations.
• Adopt the policy of hconcentrating on the role
  of media, awareness and education so as to
  clarify the dangers of terrorism and betray the
  falseness of terrorist organizations by relying
  on logical and religious evidences.
• Take deterrent andarsh measures against
  terrorists who are arrested and try those who
  have already carried out any terrorist activities
  in the past so as to be deterrence for any person
  or party practicing terrorism and believing that
  it will not be punished for such acts due to time
  limitation.
• It is necessary to coordinate between all
  countries in order to take appropriate measures
  to deprive terrorists and planners and financiers
  of terrorist activities from having safe haven.
• As for the Middle East region there is a
  necessity to put an end to tension factors that
  constitute a motive for violence. In this
  connection we have to emphasize that it is
  necessary to achieve comprehensive and just peace
  at all paths.

• To develop the economies of Middle East countries
  and to improve the standard of living of its
  people, taking into consideration that there is a
  linkage between poverty and terrorism.
• To control fund and donation raising campaigns
  for different purposes as the donation funds were
  exploited for supporting extreme groups as was
  the case in Jaish Mohammed in Jordan in 1991.
• Security plays an important role and takes the
  lead to confront terrorism if necessary. Its
  duties include infiltration and breaking through
  the organizations and create divisions and
  differences between them in order to preoccupy
  them with their own internal affairs and also to
  foil their plans to acquire arms and carry out
  sabotage and terrorism acts, and also to call
  leaders from these extreme organizations and
  enter into dialogue with them and pressure them
  and arrest members from them and refer them to
  Courts in accordance with the provisions of the
  Law.
• To work towards creating a specific international
  definition for terrorism within an international
  agreement to be adopted by the United Nations.
