King Abdullah II needs to be even-handed surely, and condemn the rocket attacks on Israel which both started the current round of problems and are the continuing reason for it.

Until Middle-Eastern rulers admit to the terrorism that they support, and stop doing so ... there will be no peace.

Let's get serious. Do the Palestinians ever run out of bullits or guns or bombs or missles?

Give money to a drug addict to pay the rent or buy groceries and the money will go into the veins or up the nose.

Give money to the Hamas govt for medicine and food and more people will be brutalized and die.

The tactic of the Palestinian leaders claiming innocence while their proxies create havoc is old, tired, and can no longer even pass for possible.

The time for politcal aristocracy is over. If King Abdullah wants to help, I suggest he abdicate his throne, abolish Jordan's archaic form of government and give the country to people who can lead into the future...the Palestinians.
