1. Why theJordan archeological society
Lemmings Hotline ,   sd ca   (10.27.14)
....don't prevent the Waqf from destroying the temple mount. Very unprofessional. Are they so afraid they might find jewish artifacts? Jewish history is central to the Koran. Dont let the radicals make this issue their battle cry,

A calm on the borders extorted and sustained by a third party's bribes is not peace ,...
3. Israel helps and educates the Jordanians in many fields
(10.27.14)
Agriculture, forrestation, nature preservation, science, electronic media, etc. The Jordanians for some reason are inspired us Israelis in many many aspects. One only has to look at the buildings in Amman nowadays, the Jordanians' efforts to make their capital and their country greener, and have a strange feeling of Déjà vu. Where are all these red tiles, Israeli style, came from? I wouldn't be also surprised if Israeli personnel from the Keren Kayemeth LeIsrael and landscape designers are helping the Jordanians in these fields and so many others. Seems like the Jordanians systematicaly copy or at least inspired by many projects, cultural institutes that we Israelis built. I don't mind all that. What I do ind is their double face and cowardice and dishonesty about it. The regime continues to bash Israel vis-a-vis the Jordanians and behind the scene is helped and inspired by Israel.

First you give a long list of bragging then when comes a time to provide some examples you came up with some stupid 'red tiles' and at the end a little lecturing and self-righteous bashing ,...

arne ,   chicago usa   (10.27.14)
What's your beef with Israel? Is it Israel, Jews or both? You know the deepest form of hatred is Envy--could this be your inner problem?
7. Aren't there Arab-Israeli Doctors good enough to run...
Ozraeli ,   Australia   (10.28.14)
Aren't there some Arab-Israeli Doctors good enough to run a hospital? Perhaps with a mixed staff of some seconded department head Israelis? Pity for a lost opportunity.
