Why does Bibi need Jordan’s permission to defend itself?

Perhaps Bibi is simply advising Jordan of its’ plan and not asking permission?

Because asking is the neighborly thing to do?

My guess is that it involves use of their air space to carry out the attacks which is standard procedure.

Exactly. If it’s a matter of air space, just mosey on over the Golan, and in moments you’re flying through Syrian territory.

Because Jordan is the only Arab country besides Egypt that recognizes and cooperates with Israel. This is more due to the Hashemite royal family’s views, and not the general public.

If Israel’s actions destabilizes the Jordanian monarchy so that it collapses like Mubarak did, then they will have no friends at all in the region.
