Reply to comment by [deleted] in Jordan king warns of 'red lines' in Jerusalem as Netanyahu returns to office by Pilast
Jordan is still on friendlier terms with Israel than a lot of other Arab countries. He's just being a politician and trying to appeal to his base which empathizes with Palestinian politics.

He doesn't need to appeal to "his base" he's not a politician, he's a monarch.

True but haven't we seen similar Arab leaders in that region who were equal in status get overthrown or deal with civil wars? Doubt he's scared of that, but he wants to seem like he cares about certain issues regardless. But Jordan isn't a threat to Israel anyway. We saw how the 6 day war went.

? Jordan recognizes Israel and has a peace treaty and agreements on border disputes for decades.
Saudi has barely started to acknowledge the chance of normal relations with Israel.
