Has the US Administration Decided to Get Rid of Jordan's King Abdullah?
Gatestone Institute ^ | 11/20/2012 | Khaled Abu Toameh

Posted on 11/20/2012 10:18:47 AM PST by aimhigh

Unless the US clarifies its position regarding King Abdullah and reiterates its full backing for his regime, the Muslim fundamentalists are likely to step up there efforts to create anarchy and lawlessness in the kingdom.

. . . . .
Deputy State Department Spokesman Mark Toner managed to create panic [and anger] in the Royal Palace in Amman when he stated that there was "thirst for change" in Jordan and that the Jordanian people had "economic, political concerns," as well as "aspirations."

Losing Abdullah and Jordan is a point of no return.

This sounds like Obama’s opening gambit to topple another stable Muslim country and install the Muslim Brotherhood. Obama is creating the Muslim dream of a Greater Caliphate that will unite the Muslim Middle Eastern countries against Israel and the West.

It has been plain from his actions that always move the Muslim cause “Forward” what obama is;too bad millions of Americans are willfully blind and stupid.

To all those who say obama is doing a poor job ,I say,no he is doing a VERY good job at what his true goal is:destroying freedom.

Its going to be kind of interesting to see how the media portrays Abdullah as a brutal dictator when the whole world knows better.

After all, just a few years ago he decreed that muslim men would face murder charges for “honor killings”.

The Hashemites are one of the few reliable Arab elites in the whole Middle East.

If they controlled Saudi Arabia instead of the Saudis, then Wahabbism probably wouldn’t be the threat it is today.

The king may be a US ally, and a force for civilization in an uncivilized world.

But he isn’t Muslim Brotherhood, and he has to go.

That would give Israel a war form all four sides. Iran across the border and form the sea. Syria, Egypt, Jourdan, and Lebanon would all attack. Only God will save Israel.

The goal is to rid the world of any ME leader who gets along with the West and replace them with a Muslim Brotherhood standin and eventually Sharia. That is what Obama’s unwritten plan is all about. Forget the rhetoric, look at the deeds done or about to be done.

“Unless the US clarifies its position regarding King Abdullah and reiterates its full backing for his regime, the Muslim fundamentalists are likely to step up there efforts to create anarchy and lawlessness in the kingdom.”

The Palestinians have always claimed Jordan as Palestinian (along with Israel). The Muslim Brotherhood probably looks upon the removal of King Hussein as a restoration of Palestinian lands (although the vast majority of Palestinians are nothing but Arab immigrants, who came in after Jews started redeveloping the land). Since Jordan occupies two-thirds of the Palestinian Mandate. Move the Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank to Jordan, with Amman as the Palestinian capital(after all,at one time they held Jordanian citizenship). Then you would have a two state solution. In fact you already have a two state solution of Jordan (majority of inhabitants are Palestinian), and Israel.

Include Hillary Clinton in this plan as well. She has been an advocate for the Muslim Brotherhood for a long time. For details see Front Page Magazine.

“The goal is to rid the world of any ME leader who gets along with the West and replace them with a Muslim Brotherhood standin and eventually Sharia.”

More specifically they want to turn the clock back to the time of the last Caliph (the Ottoman Empire), and reverse all their loses. They view Jordan, Syria, Lebanon,Iraq, and Israel as creations of the West. The new Muslim leadership in Turkey is now looking at trying to return to its position of leadership as a Muslim state, rather than a secular state.

The Muslim Brotherhood is nothing but the spear point of Jihad, and our current government (read the State Department and the Obama Administration)is playing with a serpent that will turn on it.

"the Muslim fundamentalists are likely to step up there efforts"

Step up "there" efforts? Clearly a product of publik schools.

I watched an interview with her. I’ll say one thing. She took her role seriously - probably still does as the mother of the ruler - a precarious one.

I don’t quite know, though, what your “M.O Jealousy” comments mean.
