King Abdullah of Jordan is not passing the opportunity to get involved in the Israel-bashing that has reached unprecedented heights since last week, with the American administration opting to focus all its attention at Israel the stumbling block to peace in the Mideast.
During a meeting on Wednesday with Catherine Ashton, High Representative for Foreign Affairs & Security Policy of the European Union (EU), the king called upon the international community to act against Israel, to intervene in light of Israel’s provocations against the PA (Palestinian Authority) in “occupied areas”.
It is interesting, especially coming from the son of the late King Hussein, who occupied eastern Yerushalayim from 1948 until Israeli forces liberated the holy areas from the Muslims, who did all they could to defile everything holy to yiddishkeit during those years. (The king took over for his father who abdicated the throne in 1952. Hussein died in 1999.)
While Israel has maintained a policy of respecting all religions since it liberated areas of the Holy Land in the Six Day War, Hussein had a different agenda, including the destruction of the Churva Shul, using tombstones from Har HaZeisim to line the walls of urinals, and basically destroying any and all traces of Judaism wherever possible. There was no Jewish access to the Kosel or other areas, with the Arab monarch exercising his total anti-Jewish authority. Now that Yerushalayim is back in the hands of her proper owner, the Arab world is yelling ‘foul’.
The king brazenly seeks to turn the world against the rightful owner of Jerusalem, seeking to align himself with radical Muslim elements, aware his days in the castle are numbered, for Iran and the Axis of Evil has its eye on Amman, rejecting the modern king and his Western ways.
As is his usual custom, he chanted the standard diatribe, accusing Israel of endangering al-Aqsa, of jeopardizing Islamic holy sites, adding that Jerusalem represents a “red line” that cannot crossed.
Ashton is expected to arrive in Israel this week and she will be holding senior meetings as well as traveling to Ramallah to meet with PA (Palestinian Authority) officials.

Thank you Obama for opening the floodgates for everyone to bash Israel, from Hillary Clinton down to this retard.
This situation is spiraling out of control. It will be interesting to see if Obama will allow this to continue or if he will speak up because he’s the only one who can put the brakes on this runaway train.
The fact that Abdullah had a white English mother makes him DOUBLY dangerous. If push came to shove, in cahoots with other nations, the ‘peaceful’ Hashemite Jordanian army is potent enough to invade Israel and even re-recapture Jerusalem, as predicted in Zecharya 14!
#1 – but who controls Obama? HE is the ONLY one who can stop this runaway train. The bottom line, though, is Klal Isroel. Are we worthy or not, C’V? Now Pesach is around the corner and just as we rid ourselves from the chametz, so shall we rid ourselves of our bad midos. We all know why Beis Hamikdash Hashlishi is not yet built. We still have not been able to le’taken sin’at chinam! IT’S CLEAR TO ME THAT IT’S TIME TO MAKE A REAL CHANGE WITH OUR FELLOW YIDDENS, AND THE REAL TEST COMES WHEN YOU HAVE TO PROVE YOUR AHAVAT ISROEL TO A YID WHO DOES NOT PRACTICE YOUR MINHAGIM!
Where are all the Jews who were lining up to support Obama claiming he is a supporter of Israel and there is nothing to fear.
Its time Israel tells America to go to hell, attack Iran, chase the Arabs out of Israel, reclaim Gaza and the West Bank, and then any county who dares say a word, march right in. After Israel controls the whole Middle East they should leave the UN, and withhold oil from the West, including China. When that happens, Russia will support them and end the US arrogant dominance of the world.

Correct everything is from Hashem and our actions influence what happens in global events. If Yidden didn’t have so much sinas chinam the mikdash will be rebuilt in time to bring a Korban Pesach this year. IYH!
Why doesn’t Jordan reoccupy the palestinians?
