Jordan and the West Bank

Submitted by Paul Severien (Australia), Jun 7, 2010 at 05:44

Daniel Pipes is 90% correct. I only disagree with him on one topic. That is whether Jordan is willing to take in the Palestinians,i.e., West Bank. I doubt it. They have a majority Palestinian population and King Abdullah is not about to give up his throne. His wife is Palestinian. His father had problems with the Palestinians. I think it is wishful thinking on the part of Daniel Pipes. They (Jordan) don't want more problems.
