Al Jazeera reports:
Jordan’s Islamist opposition party has topped the country’s parliamentary elections but fell short of securing a majority, according to official election results.

The Islamic Action Front (IAF), the political arm of the Muslim Brotherhood in Jordan, won 31 out of 138 seats in the Parliament of Jordan, tripling its representation in the House of Representatives, the country’s election commission announced on Wednesday.
As concerning as that is, it downplays the real story: more than half of Jordanians voted for the Muslim Brotherhood aligned  party, according to Roya TV (table by Wikipedia):

PartyVotes%
Islamic Action Front464,35056.24
Charter Party93,68811.35
National Islamic87,70810.62
Will Party68,5068.30
Progress Party61,2067.41
Blessed Land50,2586.09
Total825,716100.00
Registered voters/turnout1,638,351

If you add the votes for the National Islamic party, that means fully two thirds of Jordanian voters - 67% - voted for Islamist parties.

The Islamic Action Front did not receive a majority of seats in the parliament due to other rules that limit certain seats to women and minorities, but if this was a truly representational election, the parliament would now be solidly controlled by pro-Hamas Islamists. 

Now, Jordan is not a democracy and the king holds most of the power. Even so, this shows how strong the Islamist parties are in Jordan.

Jordan is only a bullet away from becoming an ISIS/Hamas style hellhole.  I do not see any plan from Western democracies to stop something like this from happening. 

Israel is the bulwark against the entire region descending into becoming ISIS.
