King of Jodan: What happens in Jerusalem strengthens terrorist recruiting

Jordan's King Abdullah II met with reporters a few days after returning from his visit to the United States.

He noted that after talks with the new US administration, officials respect the views of Jordan on dealing with a multitude of challenges.

Abdullah said that during his visit he stressed the importance of resolving the Palestinian issue and added: "What is happening in Palestine and Jerusalem strengthens the ability of terrorists to recruit people and inflames the feelings of all Muslims."
