Abdullah says "not now George..not yet"

Jordan's King Abdullah postpones visit to the USA. Jordan is a major recipient of US aid and home to most Palestinian refugees. It's this latter fact that gives the Zionists the chutzpah to say that "Jordan is Palestine". That and the fact that Jordan was a part of Palestine mandated to Britain by the League of Nations. Britain hived off the land east of the River Jordan and gave it to the Hashemite royal family. Later the Hashemites would collaborate with the Zionists to carve up the West Bank between the then King Abdullah (sic) and the fledgling State of Israel. Come to think of it, if Gaza is the most densely concentrated tract of land on earth and Israel keeps most of the West Bank, where can the Palestinian refugees return to? Not the East Bank (Jordan) surely? Don't feel too bad for Abdullah but the poor chap walks a fine line indeed.
