“In a further signal of Jordanian anger with Israel over the friction at Jerusalem’s Temple Mount, King Abdullah II reportedly cancelled Jordanian participation in a ceremony that had been scheduled for this week to mark 20 years of the Israel-Jordan peace treaty.

Jordan has already recalled its ambassador from Tel Aviv, and officials have warned it may reassess the peace treaty, amid violence and tension surrounding the status of the mount, holy to Jews and Muslims.


In a further sign of Jordanian displeasure, Abdullah ordered two of his ministers and some 40 other Jordanian officials not to attend the 20th anniversary ceremony scheduled to be held in the Jordan Valley area between the two countries. This move forced the official postponement of the ceremony, which may well be cancelled altogether.”

“And in that day will I make Jerusalem a burdensome stone for all people: all that burden themselves with it shall be cut in pieces, though all the people of the earth be gathered together against it... it shall come to pass in that day, that I will seek to destroy all the nations that come against Jerusalem." Zechariah 12:1-3, 29
