Donald Trump wants to have hundreds of thousands of Gazans deported to Jordan. If this happens, it could mean the end of the Hashemite kingdom, as Hamas operatives would be within Jordan working with the Palestinians who are already the majority in that country, to overthrow the Hashemite kingdom. Khalil Jahshan, the executive director of the Arab Center Washington D.C., made this warning: “What Mr. Trump has done is put the future of the Kingdom of Jordan on the line… The strongest political movement in Jordan does not accept the idea that Jordan is Palestine.”
To make matters worse, there are already tensions between the Kingdom of Jordan and its Palestinian majority, which means that allowing Hamas members to enter Jordan would only exasperate these tensions make for a much more volatile situation. As we read in the New York Times:
Mr. Trump’s remarks about the relocation plan turned up the pressure on King Abdullah, who would likely be engulfed in his own domestic crisis if Palestinians were forced into Jordan. More than half of Jordan’s population is estimated to be Palestinian; the nation is already unsettled by tensions between citizens of Palestinian descent and those who are not, analysts say.
And now, Trump is threatening to cut aid to Jordan if they do not comply:
President Trump said on Monday that he could cut aid to Jordan and Egypt if they refused his demand to permanently take in most Palestinians from Gaza, substantially increasing the pressure on key allies in the region to back his audacious proposal to relocate the entire population of the territory in order to redevelop it.
“If they don’t agree, I would conceivably withhold aid,” Mr. Trump told reporters in the Oval Office a day ahead of a meeting with King Abdullah II of Jordan.
Its almost like the US is working to further destabilize the Middle East. If Jordan goes, there will be no buffer between Israel and Iran. The Iranians could simply go through Iraq, into Jordan and into Israel, while the Turks could just go through Syria and Lebanon. As I said last week, if Jordan goes Israel is finished:
