King Abdullah's speech to the UN is a study in hypocrisy and lies

Yesterday, Jordan's King Abdullah addressed the UN General Assembly with polished English and breathtaking hypocrisy.Harking back to the long-debunked "linkage" theory, Abdullah claimed, "The Palestinian-Israeli conflict [is] the central issue in the Middle East."This is right after he spoke about Syria, and the 1.3 million Syrian refugees that Jordan hosts!As has been the...

Egyptian, Jordanian, Moroccan and Saudi government ministries condemn Jews visiting their holiest site on Rosh Hashana

On Sunday, about 250 Jews visited the Temple Mount for Rosh Hashanah. There were no major incidents: one Jew blew a shofar and was quickly removed by police.But since so much ink had been spilled in the Arab world about how "Al Aqsa is in danger" the Arabic media had to create the impression that the Jews who calmly and quietly visited - as they do every Sunday through...

Was Jordan behind Abbas' recent mass firing of envoys and governors?

The Media Line reports:After PA President Mahmoud Abbas fired 12 provincial governors and 35 foreign envoys, analysts say it is Jordan that has pushed him for changes out of concern for the stability of the entity on its border. Further overhauls may lie ahead.Rumors of imminent changes within the Palestinian Authority government continue to swirl, despite official denials...

Insane antisemitism in Jordan's parliament

It isn't only in newspapers that one can see naked Jew-hatred in Jordan.It is in their parliament, too.MEMRI, for example, translated some of the more antisemitic statements spoken in Jordan's parliament in 2021: Suleiman Abu Yahya:"The Jews, Allah's curses upon them, are described in the Quran as the slayers of the prophets....The Jews are cowards. The diapers that the...

On Thursday, the UN published a document titled, "Study on the Legality of the Israeli Occupation of the Occupied Palestinian Territory, Including East Jerusalem."It is 107 pages of tendentious and one-sided arguments all intended to declare Israeli actions since 1967 to be illegal. There are counterarguments to each of their arguments - but they don't let the readers know...

Jordan's "Royal Committee for Jerusalem Affairs" issues another antisemitic statement: "Zionists created the Temple myth"

The Royal Committee for Jerusalem Affairs is a quasi-governmental Jordanian organization, with many members who are also ministers of the Jordanian government, whose purpose is "working to raise awareness of the importance of the issue of Jerusalem and not to separate it from its Arab and Islamic dimension, expose the Judaization and daily Israeli violations it is subjected...

Jordanian MP worried that Jews might be allowed to buy land in Jordan

Last week, the Jordanian parliament passed a bill that allowed the transfer of state-owned land to government investment funds or companies.Jordanian politicians warned at the time that the bill could be used to sell land to Israelis.

Everyday, insane Jew-hatred in Jordanian media

Mohamed Salama is a regular columnist in Jordan's Ad-Dustour, a fairly well-known mainstream news site.Lately he has been on an antisemitic kick.On Sunday he wrote a column entitled "The Jews: .a wicked race." He doesn't even pretend to be talking about "Zionists."In that article he writes:The Protestant thinker Martin Luther described the Jews as a vicious race, persecuting...

A surprising number of Arab youth in the UAE, Egypt and even Algeria(!) support normalization with Israel

From reading the media, the impression one gets is that while Arab governments are considering the benefits of closer relations with Israel, the populations are completely against it.It turns out that this is not exactly true.The 2023 Arab Youth Survey mentions that nearly 17% of Gulf citizens and 11% of North African youth now see Israel as a strong ally or somewhat...

Another large set of Palestinians who proudly trace their ancestry from elsewhere

This video segment from VOA News describes how many Gazans trace their roots to Kurdistan.Of course, we knew this.
