Jordan’s fertility rate is 3.19 children born/woman. Much of their people depend on various forms of “public assistance”, camouflaged as subsidized food and “public employment”.

For a while, Muslim states have tried to defer fate by exporting their unskilled males to Europe, to sponge off their welfare states. That’s not going to work for much longer. I don’t think there is a solution that does not involve women stopping having kids which they will be unable to feed without welfare.

Even Arabs don't like Palestinians or Syrian refugees.
Wonder why. Can't be racism. What other reason could there possibly be?

Maybe because Palestinians are like house guests who come uninvited, eat your food, undermine your subsistence economy, breed like rabbits, and try to assassinate or overthrow you.

“More ominous for the kingdom is the fact that some 70 percent of the population considers itself to be “Palestinian.”

I think I see the problem. Black September redux soon.

Thanks SJackson. No good deed goes unpunished -- Jordan has hosted many thousands of refugees fleeing Assad's civil war in the neighboring failed state of Syria, and 70 percent of Jordanians are so-called Palestinians. The article or op-ed has a weird idea that the Israeli intervention which helped save the late King Hussein when Syria colluded with the PLO to overthrow the dynasty was a mistake -- that's an absurd statement, what actually happened was, the Jordanian back channel to Israel was opened, and it consisted of King Hussein himself, communicating with Israeli intelligence via his doctor (a real doctor, but also an operative) in London. After the coup attempt, the terrorists were either killed, or imprisoned for a time, or they fled for their miserable worthless lives, mostly to Lebanon. That led to the further destabilization of Lebanon (destroying Lebanese independence has been a longterm goal of the Syrian regime).

That’s because Jordan was considered part of Palestine

“That’s because Jordan was considered part of Palestine.”

Right up until the “palis” tried to murder the entire Royal Family.

King Abdullah of Jordan, al Sisi of Egypt and the new head of Saudi Arabia are prime candidates for assassination by fundamental Muslims.

Those 3 that I have mentioned are Muslim heretics and Infidel collaborators and have to worry about getting killed as did Egypt's Anwar Sadat who also like to make nice with us Infidels. Tom

I would say that Royals of Jordan are in a bad position.
The majority of their subjects are hostile or indifferent, they share borders with hostile or failed states, and they are infested with Syrian refugees.
Unless they are willing to indulge in some genocide, they better keep their overseas accounts full, and their royal airliner on standby.
