The Israelies asked them not to leave. They left. They are not treated as people in the countries where they live. They brought it upon themselves when you look at the people who listened and stayed in Israel. They have only themselves to blame.

I have very high relationships in Jordan and have worked there since 2000. As a Christian, I've searched history for the route of the problems there. It all goes back to Herzl in Austria starting the Zionist Movement about 150 years ago. In case you don't know, That's a psuedo religious/political movement with the goal being to takeover Judea and Samaria, at any cost. Men such as the Rothschild's, Soros and their ilk behind it it has tremendous influence, particularly in the American foreign policy. What's Jordans role in this? All Arab people that will bend to the Zionist position are persona non grata: PERIOD. As the Arab people are cons idered "collateral", Jordan is the logical "dumbing ground". I have known King Abdullah since 1989, before he was King. He's a benevolent man but the propaganda that is about to be used against, how does he combat it? Today, people react. They don't research thing. RT says "Question More". That's the answer to the problem. A poster suggested the Arabs were asked to stay. To what? Help build their own prison? Even the Ultra Orthodox Jews won't go there.
