Jordan brands Iran, Syria biggest threat to stability

JERUSALEM (AFP) - Jordan's King Abdullah II launched a stinging attack
against Iran, Syria and Lebanese-based militia Hezbollah as the main threats
to Middle East stability.

At talks with American Jewish leaders in Washington, the king said Syria and
Hezbollah were encouraging Palestinian militants to wage attacks against
Israel, the Haaretz and Yedioth Ahronoth newspapers reported Wednesday.


Abdullah II accused Syria, Iran and Hezbollah of being "the greatest threats
to stability in the Middle East," both dailies quoted him as saying.

This is amazing! Abdullah blames a fellow Arab nation (instead of Israel)
for the continued instability in the region. Is anybody noticing how the
Arab countries (Saudi Arabia, Egypt, and Jordan) are one-by-one lining up
*against* Syria on several issues?
