- Jordan’s King Abdullah II has ruled out the possibility of his country becoming an “alternative homeland” for the Palestinians, warning that their forced displacement by Israel would be a “war crime”.
Speaking during a gathering of world leaders at the United Nations General Assembly, King Abdullah said: “The idea of Jordan as an alternative homeland [for Palestinians] … will never happen.”
He said he was responding to proposals floated by “extremists who are taking our region to the brink of an all-out war”.
Jordan, which borders the West Bank and Israel and has a large Palestinian population, “will never accept the forced displacement of Palestinians, which is a war crime”, King Abdullah said.
The monarch urged the international community to join “a massive relief effort to deliver food, clean water, medicine and other vital supplies” to the Gaza Strip, where nearly a year of war has triggered “unprecedented suffering”.
“I urge all nations of conscience to unite with Jordan in the critical weeks ahead on this mission,” he said.
“Our world has failed politically, but our humanity must not fail the people of Gaza any longer. “

king of Jordan stand behind your words!!!!!!
Good words but Jordan has been too servile to USA and the West, and a lot more than 42,000 in Gaza have been killed. He has been forced to speak out by the strength of feeling of the people of Jordan and anger at its position for too long. Action is needed against Netanyahu, Israel and its cronies in USA, UK and elsewhere.
The ICJ was crystal clear in its clarification on July 17, 2024:
Israel must leave all illegally occupied territories.
Discussions are superfluous.
