It amuses me how much people in the US like the King of Jordan

"Jordan's military prosecutor at the State Security Court should immediately order the release of Hatim al-Shuli, a university student, and rescind charges against him, Human Rights Watch said today.  Al-Shuli was arrested on July 25, 2010, and charged on July 28 with insulting King Abdullah (lese majeste) and "causing national strife," over a poem he denies writing that criticized the king. The military prosecutor has since renewed orders for al-Shuli's detention and denied his petitions for bail."
