Jordan brands Iran, Syria biggest threat to stability

Wed Mar 23, 4:58 AM ET


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?




Hell, I'm probably the dimmest bulb in the group, and I noticed!


Jordan's king is following in the footsteps of his dead father, who long
ago came to the realization that Israel was not his enemy, and whose son
wants peace for his people.

But neither the son nor the dad has ever publicly blamed Syria and Iran for
prolonging the Arab-Israeli conflict. This is ground-breaking news.
