60. Interesting....
Here is my theory...

What if there was collusion with "al-Qaida in Iraq" and Hamas? Two of the people killed were top Palestinian officials, Intelligence and Security. (source) What if Hamas, which is trying to gain power in the upcoming elections, decided to "bump off" some of the competition. They can't come out and just do it because that would screw them in the polls. BUT, what if they made contact with al-Qaida? Hamas is not known for going outside of Israeli borders, so no flags. BUT, if al-Qaida attacked an American chain (hotels in this case), it would seen as a response to Jordan being so Western-friendly. The first hotel hit was the one with both PA officials.

The moral: what does al-Qaida care if Jordanians hate them? BUT, Hamas, cannot be in the spotlight as doing something like this. Notice that most of the recent suicide attacks in Israel, and the threats, have not been from Hamas, but the Islamic Jihad. Also, Hamas, recently, three days before the attacks, requested asylum in Jordan (they are getting the boot from Syria) and were flat-out denied.

Possible?
