What’s the deal with the anti-Israel protests in Jordan?

Over the past few weeks, Jordan has witnessed anti-Israel protests — a little below 3,000 protesters at best, chanting Islamic slogans and support for the Palestinian terror group Hamas.  In this article, I will prove that the protests are staged by Jordan’s regime.

Abdullah II, the king of Jordan, known by Jordanians as “Ali Baba,” is fully allied with the Muslim Brotherhood.  He inherited this defiled marriage from his late father, so it is nothing new.  The Brotherhood is the Hashemite regime’s party just as much as the Baath party is Assad’s.  Abdullah has already acknowledged this in more than one interview with Western media — for example, with The Atlantic, to whom he said, “The Muslim Brotherhood is part of the system.”  The king’s shameless support of the Muslim Brotherhood is not a secret even to the English-speaking reader.  One does not need to look beyond the American Thinker to see the abundant evidence.

In a police state like Abdullah’s kingdom, the demonstrations in front of the Israeli embassy in Amman could never take place without permission from the king’s intelligence.  The anti-Israeli rhetoric and calls for “knocking down” the Israeli embassy are promoted by the king-controlled media.  The protests are led on the ground by members of the Muslim Brotherhood, who would never do this without coordinating with Abdullah’s security forces.
