1. Spineless Monarch.
Janice Cohen ,   Jerusalem   (06.15.10)
When Pals eventually dispatched to their true homeland, this little clown will be out of a job. Pals could'nt overthrow Israel, so the ravenous wolves will eventually devour Kingy.
2. Who builds nuclear reactor on the Syrian-African Fault?
Eric ,   Tel Aviv & New York   (06.15.10)
What brilliant engineer will build a nuclear reactor on the Syrian-African Fault? Come on guys thinks about what you are proposing - building on a earthquake prone fault line near oil and gas reserves. Just brilliant
3. Peaceful reactors all over the place, peace will be possible
Palestinian   (06.15.10)
4. Children shouldn't play with matches.
Terry ,   Eilat - Israel   (06.15.10)
They might start a fire & burn down their house (and ours along with it). Unstable regimes should not be allowed to obtain nuclear technology. You just never know who will eventually get their hands on it when the regime is over-thrown.
5. Jordan: Israel undermining nuclear procurements efforts
Leslie ,   Beersheva, Israel   (06.15.10)
I don't think Israel is afraid of Jordan becoming economically independent at all. The issue deals with a nuclear power plant and it's locations. I also don't understand the King's statement that if the private sector was involved there would be nothing sinister going on? As long as people are involved whether it is the private or public sector -- people look out for their own economic and other interests. Things sinister do go on in the private sector as well.
6. what a hypocrite
Johnny ,   Nazareth   (06.15.10)
As all of his nations he's a big hypocrite liar... Anyway if you didn't know, Jordan's economy is based of investments from Israel! without Israel Jordan is dead...so he better shut his big mouth....
7. Barakah Hussein Obama
Albrecht Klein ,   Germany   (06.15.10)
Thanks to BHO, each mutton thief in the Middle East will get a hand on nukes. What a loser.
8. Let him fall
Robin ,   US   (06.15.10)
Israel should stop propping up this twit.
9. So what are you going to do about it?Bomb jordan too?
Peter ,   Vienna-Austria   (06.15.10)
The king has a point when he says that israel should mind its own business. Jordanian government is not hostile towards israel,so why all the fuss?? Me thinks you just want anything nuclear related to only be part of israel and no other nation in the mid east. This policy was doomed to fail from day 1. Even if S.Korea or any other state refuses to build jordan a nuclear reactor (which is doubtful),they can always look onto Germany and Russia. MONEY SPEAKS...
10. #6 With out US aid and arms,israel is dead too.
Mark ,   Netherlands   (06.15.10)
Whats your point here?? The US and Europe all did with out you and would certainly continue to do with out you. On the other hand,its you who is reluctant on American Weapons and free German subs.
11. arabs make trouble for Israel why not the other way around
zionist forever   (06.15.10)
Whats wrong with Israel not wanting Jordan to get nuclear power and trying to make it difficult for them? Is Abdullah telling us that at this time especially when diplomatic relations are so bad that Jordan doesn't or wouldn't intefere with Israels business. The arabs think its their right to dictate to Israel or make life hard for it but it doesn't work both ways and Israelis should bow down to Abdullah because he is royalty the way his subjects do or Obama would. The only thing he is right about here is when he says that Jordans nuclear reactor technology is ahead of Israels. Because Israel has nukes & hasn't signed the NPT its having a much harder time finding somebody willing to sell a nuclear reactor so all we got is the old thing at Dimona which has been upgraded over the years.
12. to #10
Johnny ,   Nazareth   (06.15.10)
my point here is that Israel doesn't live from foreign investments. It has it's own technology and production , and you can't deny that, it's true that the US helps Israel, but it also helps all of it's allies! Israel is a leader in startups companies and nanotechnologies and many other types of technologies. The arab countries don't produce anything, name one arab country that produce one thing ? you can't right!
13. Since Jordan is the eventual Palestine,
Joey Rose ,   Portland   (06.15.10)
it should be given nothing on a silver platter. Palestinians need to learn how to build from the bottom up and not from the top downwards.
14. #12 - 56% of the worlds Oil Reserves. 36% of Natural Gas
lara ,   Australia   (06.15.10)
15. To #14
Johnny ,   Nazareth   (06.15.10)
Do you call this production ?? Don't make me laugh about your ignorance! So what if the arabs have the oil and gas, this is not production. Without the western companies arabs wouldn't know what would be this black oily liquid, so don't make excuses! By production i mean, using their brains to invent and produce something useful for the world. The technology to use petrol came from the western countries, and still the western countries control the oil there not the arabs . Dubai lives from world investments and western oil companies, but they don't produce anything. ZERO
16. #13 israels reactor was built by the Americans & the French!
Peter ,   Vienna-Austria   (06.15.10)
So much for israeli brains.
17. #9
Israel Forever ,   Israel   (06.15.10)
Money speaks ? Jordan is one of the poorest Arab countries in the ME.
18. #10 Do u know..
John ,   Accra,Ghana   (06.16.10)
Do u know most drones been used by Americans in iraq and afghanistan are Israeli made?.Israel is the heart of technology so get your fact straight before u vomit any nonesense.From what u wrote is a clear evidence that u possess a 3rd grade education.
19. Sorry Abdulah but Israel is scared RIGHT ???
M. S. ,   mpls america   (06.19.10)
I realize it is quite logicial for tiny little Israel to be scared of the Atomic bomb every day Jews live in fear of it that the Germans the Nazis that any form of terrorists who have it in for us might get it thus you see if Syria Hizbulah would wage a honorable conventionial war against Israel Israel the Jews might relax a bit even help Jordan Syria Iran so on develop peaceful nuclear electric power but we need real proof a honorable war of course America the U K Germany so on want to stop this honorable Arab Jew war RIGHT ??? Thank You... M. S.
