Is is because they don’t negotiate with terrorists?

Qfter the King of Jordan DENIES Palestinian refugees along with Egypt's Sisi. Load of liberalism

I hope the people of Jordan toss that King cuck out of his posh mansion and has a block party in minecraft

Nearly 35%% of the jordanian population are Palestinian refugees, 35% are jordanian and the rest are syrian and Iraqi refugees. Ratios are approximate. Not defending the king but asking jordan to house more refugees may not be the best solution to this war.

It's complicated.

They're refusing refugees because 1. they can't handle them and it would cause a humanitarian crisis and 2. this is another nakba and those refugees will never be allowed to go home.

Don't be surprised if it's back on by the time Biden is done meeting with Netanyahu. Jordan and Egypt are wasting a great opportunity.

What opportunity are Jordan and Egypt wasting?

[-] deconstruct@lemm.ee -2 points 11 months ago

The oppurtunity to pressure Biden and thus pressure Netanyahu into limiting or ending the war.

As it stands now, Biden will talk to the Israelis, then go home.

lol what possible pressure could they employ?

[-] yogthos@lemmy.ml -1 points 11 months ago

They're talking with adults in China and Russia instead.
