Russia, Jordan sign nuclear cooperation agreement

Russia and Jordan have signed a nuclear energy cooperation agreement, according to media reports in Moscow over the weekend.

According to terms of the deal, Russia will provide the Hashemite Kingdom with power plants, nuclear research facilities, and training centers.

A Jordanian official said the key aspects of the deal are the building of a nuclear power plant to produce electricity as well as a desalination station.

The King of Jordan: King Abdullah II is not some radical Islamic potentate like in Saudi Arab and most of the middle East

From his website:

Since his ascension to the throne, King Abdullah II has continued his late father's commitment to creating a strong and positive moderating role for Jordan within the Arab region and the world, and has worked towards the establishment of a just and lasting comprehensive solution to the Arab-Israeli conflict. King Abdullah II is committed to building on the late King's legacy to further institutionalize democratic and political pluralism in Jordan. He has exerted extensive effort to ensuring sustainable levels of economic growth and social development aimed at improving the standard of living of all Jordanians. He is also working towards modernizing Jordan's information technology and educational systems. Under King Abdullah's reign, Jordan was admitted to the World Trade Organization, and ratified agreements for the establishment of a Free Trade Area with the United States of America, the European Union, the European Free Trade Association countries, and sixteen Arab countries. King Abdullah II has also been involved in the drive for national administrative reform, as well as governmental transparency and accountability. He has been working on the advancement of civil liberties making Jordan one of the most progressive countries in the Middle East. Also, he has been involved in enacting the necessary legislations that guarantee women a full role in the Kingdom's socio-economic and political life.

I would think this agreement is cooperation and not collaboration.

This is his wife. Queen Rania

Remember the Palestinians tried to overthrow his father and were tossed out of Jordan after "Black September" occured

[Cooperation or collaboration?]

Yes on both. Russia will make millions and Jordan will have nuclear power to make their own nuclear bombs that will bring the coming wars of the tribulation to pass in their quest to destroy God’s Israel from the earth as they are manipulated by the evil angel Lucifer.
This is but a step closer to the return of the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ after the 7 year tribulation headed up by the man anti Christ that God will send to bring in His wrath against all who do not believe how that Jesus Christ died for our sins and rose again the third day.
Christ’s biblical prophecy is being fulfilled day by day as the Scriptures teach, Israel is the burdensome stone that the God of Israel (Yahweh, I am that I am) is using to divide the world against Himself and His Christ to bring in the Kingdom of God on the earth by King Jesus, Christ and Saviour of those who believe God’s Word.
Even so, come Lord Jesus!
