#1 Great- King Abdullah can pick up the tab for supporting these losers.

#2 "The Jordanian king has long been involved in efforts to revive the peace process and oblige Israel to [accept] the pre-1967 borders so that the Palestinians would be able to establish their won state with Jerusalem as its capital,"

That's enough to nullify any and all accords. Palestinian acts at the Church of the Nativity FOREVER disqualified their right to have ANY say-so over Jerusalem. I'd sooner see the Saudis oversee Notre Dame cathedral.

#3 I've long wondered when the Jordanian bedouins are going to lose patience with the now majority of Paleo refugees in Jordan, and encourage them to leave.

#4 Pre 67 borders kills the negotiation before they start. These clowns are going to have to accept that the have blown any chance of that.

#5 The Palestinians do not deserve any right of return to Israel. They deserve to be dropped off in the middle of some desert with just a couple of canteens of water.

#7 So why does Jordon want to jump in bed fleas now? It wasn't so long ago that the largest deaths of Palestinians occured when King Hussein of Jordon slaughtered more than a hundred thousand when Arafat attempted to overthrow his government.

#9 For the Hashemite kinglets, the West Bank has always been about recapturing lost territory -- they've never given so much as a thought to the welfare of the inhabitants. After years of Intifadas and such, the Palestinians have finally returned to the economic level they were accustomed to under King Abdullah II's predecessors. Quite a descent from being the wealthiest, best educated Arab population outside the oil countries -- and probably the best educated even when the oil countries are included -- because they lived under Israeli rule. Back in about 1965 Yasser Arafat's predecessor as head of the PLO/Al Fatah said that the liberation of the so-called Palestinian people was not his real interest; rather it was a ruse to enable the amalgamation of the cis-Jordan Arabs with their true nation, the Kingdom of Trans-Jordan.

#10 There is double-cross, triple cross, plot and counterplot in the world of islam. Makes Machiavelli look like a school child. There is one constant. As much as these muslims don't care about each other--they always come back to the Jewish people living in Israel. They are united in their desire to remove them from Israel one way or another. The 1967 war had just about all the surrounding arab nations attacking Israel. Today, things are not much different. Muslim nations curb their enthusiasm somewhat or at least hide it--probably because of the balancing force the U.S. provides and the spunky self-preservation of Israel. Stateless terrorist proxies basically do today what muslim nations did before. Israel and the U.S. should get into their roles as the little satan and big satan (muslim labels) with enthusiasm. Since we are in this war for a long time to come, we need to take it to them and send these terrorists to hell. Despite my use of the term "terrorists," I can't help but feel that this is a war against islam. Someone convince me that the war isn't against islam since everything I see points to that.

We are not yet at war with Islam. That we are not is on account of sheer stupidity. Islam has been at war with the West for many decades and we are total fools to have ignored it for this long. The tipping point is coming. Muslims simply will not rest until they have finally committed some sort of heinous atrocity that will enrage the West and see the entire MME (Muslim Middle East) turned into smoking glass. With each passing day of inaction the lack of total war against Islam brings this fateful nuclear scenario ever more closer. Islam's very nature ensures that it will have to be exterminated.
