...attacker, in an article purporting to describe the family's wedding-like celebration of his martyrdom. The story was picked up by Arab satellite channels, provoking outrage among Iraqi Shi'ites, who have held demonstrations ever since outside the Jordanian embassy in Baghdad. The report also ignited a diplomatic feud between Jordan, which has denied that al-Banna was involved in the Hilla attack, and the interim Iraqi government, which is furious at the failure of its neighbors to stop the flow of foreign fighters into Iraq.

The tiff took off at a statewide women's conference in Long Beach last December, when the Governor ridiculed a group of nurses who were there to protest. To be sure, the R.N.s were provocative, unfurling a banner that read HANDS OFF OUR RATIOS--a not-so-subtle reference...
