Fouad Moh D. Alnimer, his wife, and his four children, all citizens of Jordan, petition for review of an order from the Board *825 of Immigration Appeals (“BIA”) summarily affirming the immigration judge’s (“IJ”) decision to deny their application for asylum, withholding of removal, and relief under the Convention Against Torture (“CAT”). The Alnimers first argue that the BIA’s procedure for Affirmance Without Opinion (“AWO”) results in a systematic “churning out” of AWOs that prejudices their statutory right to appeal and that the BIA improperly used the AWO procedure in this case. We have already held that the AWO procedure does not lead to the inference that the BIA did not conduct the required review and does not violate due process, and we find no error in the present case. See Soadjede v. Ashcroft, 324 F.3d 830, 832 (5th Cir. 2003).

The Alnimers also argue that they established past persecution and a well-founded fear of future persecution primarily because of threatening telephone calls they received from Iraqis while in Jordan from 1990 to 1999 and because the Jordanian government forced Mr. Alnimer to close a weekly newspaper. After reviewing the record and the briefs, we conclude that the decision is supported by substantial evidence and that the evidence in the record does not compel a conclusion contrary to that reached by the IJ and BIA. See INS v. Elias-Zacarias, 502 U.S. 478, 483-84, 112 S.Ct. 812, 117 L.Ed.2d 38 (1992); Mikhael v. INS, 115 F.3d 299, 302 (5th Cir. 1997). We also note that, with respect to the CAT, the Alnimers conceded in their brief before the BIA that the evidence was insufficient to obtain protection under this provision.

The petition for review is DENIED.
