Clintons Visit Bomb Site in Jordan

"AMMAN, Jordan (AP) - Former President Clinton, accompanied by his family, on Sunday visited a Jordanian hotel devastated by a suicide bomber, condemning the "destructive terror that murdered children and other innocents."

He, his wife, Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., and their daughter, Chelsea, interrupted a visit to Israel to make a brief trip to Jordan at the invitation of King Abdullah II.

The former president spoke while standing in the wrecked hall of the Radisson SAS hotel, where an attacker detonated a belt of explosives during a wedding last week.

He said the family wanted to express "solidarity with the people of Jordan and our support for doing whatever is necessary to fight against and defeat this kind of destructive terror that murdered children and other innocents."

The Clintons walked over on a bloodied carpet scattered with broken glass, silver knives and napkins.

"These people have no respect for anyone or anything," Hillary Clinton said of the bombers. "They believe in death and nihilism.""
