JORDAN'S ISLAMISTS DEMAND KING FIRE NEWLY APPOINTED PM

THIS IS RICH:

Muslim Brotherhood slams King Abdullah's newly appointed prime minister, Marouf al-Bakhit, saying "he doesn't believe in democracy."

Jordan's powerful Muslim opposition on Wednesday urged the country's newly appointed prime minister to step down, calling him the wrong person to introduce democratic reforms and tackle surging poverty and unemployment.

King Abdullah II named Marouf al-Bakhit on Tuesday as his prime minister-designate, bowing to public pressure from protests inspired by those in Egypt against President Hosni Mubarak.

Hamza Mansour, a leader of the opposition Muslim Brotherhood's political wing, rejected al-Bakhit's nomination, saying he "is not the right person for the job."

"Al-Bakhit is a security man, a former army general and ex-intelligence official. He doesn't believe in democracy," Mansour told The Associated Press. Instead, he said the country needs "a national figure who can tackle Jordan's serious economic and political crisis."

Let me get this straight, ISLAMISTS WHO FAVOR SHARIA LAW are DICTATING to the KING that he fire his new PM because the fella ain't DEMOCRATIC enough.

These islamists are liars, hypocrites. SCUM.
