King Abdullah of Jordan warns of “massive conflict” if Israel proceeds with annexation

.
Not much he or any Arab nation can do, the gulf nations wouldnt even pretend to care.

I blame the mongols.
 
.
King Abdullah is a highly educated ruler (impressive military career as well for a sovereign) who speaks several languages (already here he is way ahead of most contemporary leaders in the region and the Muslim world) and who has improved Jordan on every front in the past 2 decades despite all the many obstacles that stands in the way of Jordan whether it is geography, regional politics or the relative lack of resources. All while being located in one of the most difficult areas of the world to govern in. A pragmatic ruler that has ensured that Jordan is seen as a reliable mediator across the Arab world (similar position to Kuwait and Oman) all while Jordan is at friendly terms with all relevant powers of the world be they Western or Eastern.

What matters here is that the Jordanian people respect him and the Hashemite dynasty and while improvements are always needed and welcome of the existing political model (like anywhere in the region) he is doing very well. If Jordan had the resources that many nations of Jordan's size have, Jordan would be an even bigger success story.

As for Jordan in relation to Palestine/Israel, Jordan will be the country that will be hit the hardest in case of any major conflict/war given the geography (Palestines/Israel's longest border is with Jordan) and given the large population of Palestinians in Jordan. Exemplified by Queen Rania.

Jordanians also saw what occurred in neighboring Syria and Iraq in terms of recent regime changes/instability/civil wars/imposed wars recently thus removing the appetite for any grandiose and naive "revolution". The way forward should be a symbiotic internal development as has been the case in the past 2 decades. The political and social solution in other words.

You do that best by improving your economy, ensuring safety/peace/stability and being pragmatic and not engaging in suicidal political ambitions and nonsense of being directly hostile to a nuclear-armed foster child of the US/West (Israel) that is significantly stronger than Jordan military for good reason.
same applies for all Arab countries, one by one Israel will eat you. Allah have mercy on my soul I feel a SILENCE OF THE LAMBS in Arab world and Israel is the wolf.

Isn't it strange and hypocritical that Pakistan is unwilling to fight Israel being a nuclear power but Pakistanis are calling Arabs all kinds of names and insinuating that they are not fighting Israel?
A worrying % of Pakistanis dont care that much about Palestine, according to what i've seen on PDF at least..

Well he's right, Jordan is not taking leadership role in region and is focused on remaining stable. Considering they had major conflicts right next to their door in Palestine, Iraq and now Syria. They took in a lot of refugees and can't afford to be in conflict. Jordan gets a lot of blackmail from US, Israel and Iran. Since any of them can easily destabilize Jordan and Jordan is no position to do anything but use diplomatic means to warn Israeli's against such moves.

You can blame Iran for whole situation region is in today. Arabs would have focused more inward if it wasn't for Iranian threat and reckless policies but now they are forced to look east to deal with Iranian aggression against Iraq, Syria, Gulf Arab nations and so on.

What you want them to do when your beloved Iran is attacking them and conspiring against them on a permanent basis?
Stop blaming Iran for your incompetence, How many Arab countries are you? Iran is just one
Do you know you people have sunk trillions of Riyals in casinos of USA and Europe without any benefit to Ummah, Now is your payback time

There's no incompetence, you don't understand anything about Arab world. As crony for Iran all you know is what Iran brainwashes you with. Had Arabs had no Iranian threat since 1979 there would be many internal changes in Arab world and we wouldn't have sectarian conflict in region. Iranian 'revolution' caused most harm to region along with Western interference(with Israel and other efforts). Once right opportunity arises for people of region, they will deal with both Iran and Israel. There is no long term stability without addressing these two threats.

We have also suffered a lot from Iranian revolution but have dealt with the problems where as you hve been sleeping

Rusted Arab swords are only good for dancing with Trump now
 
.
Jordan sadly in recent years have diminished its Air Power which is no threat to Israel. So these kind of threats will not cause any harm to Israel

Bro, i completely hear you and agree!!! countries that blame Iran, its usually because their own tactics dont work- all of them, esp the Arabs.at the end of the damn day, everything is determined by money and guns. Bob Bear and Mao are right about that also.
