Washington Free Beacon: Peace Between Jordan and Israel Unraveling, Report Says
Israel’s decades-long peace with Jordan is unraveling, a development that threatens to upset a fragile regional stability that is being challenged by countries like Iran, Russia, and China, a think tank report warns.

Jordan like Pakistan plays a double game.
For example, Jordan’s king’s very own intelligence service has been caught red-handed selling to ISIS American weapons, meant for the secular Syrian opposition.
Jordan is just waiting for its set. The King and his family are bus with the Muslim Brotherhood and have been for decades.
Israel has a card to play that means perhaps more danger in the future, but would guarantee that King Abdullah and his line are ousted from power forever.
You have to get thru today before you can worry about more or less danger tomorrow.
