| Because there isn't enough pointless drama in the world at the moment: |
[Ynet] Pan-Arab newspaper Al-Hayat reported Saturday, citing "reliable Paleostinian sources," that Jordan's king, Abdullah II, threatened to sever diplomatic ties with Israel if the "attacks" on al-Aqsa mosque in Jerusalem continue.

According to the paper, Abdullah made his threats during the meeting with Prime Minister Netanyahu and US Secretary of State Kerry in Amman two weeks ago.
The Jordanian king reportedly threatened to "close the Jordanian embassy in Israel and recall the ambassador for good."
Netanyahu, the Paleostinian sources said, committed to maintaining the status quo and prevent the entrance of "extremists" to the Temple Mount compound. |
