The Jordan incident: Jordanian newspaper Al-Rudd reported on Saturday that Jordan would not fold and allow the Israeli embassy staff to return to Amman, Jordan, until Israel publicly apologized for the killing of two civilians in an Israeli embassy in Amman.

The embassy staff, which had been locked up inside the embassy for a whole day, was returned to Israel a day later after diplomatic efforts by Israel to return them to Israel, including a lightning trip by Shin Bet Chairman Nadav Argaman to Amman, Jordan.

This is politically correct. A security guard does his job, and there is a vendetta out on him. Yes, this makes perfect sense for a Jordanian leader. May our geula come quick and we should all bear witness to how these evil creatures get punished.
This lowlife garbage who calls himself king is the king of the Palestinians who he forcefully threw out of his country years ago. Hey King Kong, you want a state for your palestinian people? You’re in it. Jordan is Palestine.
