I think also the Jordan issue got settled with and I am digging into brain now, hopefully not because of the early summer heat, but also was there a “black September” incident that forced Jordan to get rid of any supporters of a seperate Palistine? Thank-you for your response.
The PLO tried to kick the King of Jordan out and take it over for the “Palestinians”. The King and his forces fought against the Palestinians, and then, Syria sent a column of tanks down to help the Palestinians defeat the King. He was not going to survive with Syria getting in.
SO he pleaded for help from the USA, but the USA couldn’t intervene fast enough to help. So the US asked Israel if they could help. Israel did and sent some jets over into Syria to strafe the tanks and give them warning if they entered Jordan that Israel was going to face them down and wipe out all their tanks. The Syrian tanks promptly turned back and went home. The King of Jordan then beat the Palestinians and drove them out of the country.
One more thing ... Jordan did “occupy” that land (Judea and Samaria) since 1948 and they intended to keep that land. But circumstances changed, Jordan lost the land in 1967, although they maintained their “claim” to it. Later, Jordan gave its “claim” to the land over to the PLO and at that time the Oslo Accords happened and Israel and Jordan signed a treaty between them.
Prior to the Oslo Accords Israel did enter into secret negotiations to give the land back to Jordan, but there was a “political hitch” in the deal from Israel’s side so it never went through. It was after that - that Jordan assigned its interests in Judea and Samaria to the PLO and afterwards Oslo came.
