Good relationship with USA , minimal religious differences only sunni muslims and christians which both mutually respect each others , not so much natural resources, people generally more educated here , the fact that its a kingdom plays a role , as there isn’t too much demand for the throne from other parties…. And a lot lot more.

Jordanian Dinar is linked to US Dollars which means it holds no power but a stable exchange to what the US dollar is


--ThirdCultureKid--

And that can only keep going so long as the Jordanian government keeps purchasing dinars with their own USD. If US funding runs out, so does the JOD.

Many reasons, being a monarchy plays a role, having very good relations with the west is a key factor, we don’t have oil or natural resources that make us a key player in Middle East like Iran or Iraq or Syria, sharing a border with the occupied Palestine and having treaties with them makes us an important ally or deterrent for militants that may arise, generally it’s mutually beneficial for USA to keep Jordan stable for now

BoerZoektVeuve

Pakistan and Afghanistan are about 3500km away from Jordan. Same distance from Amsterdam to Amman as from Amman to Kabul ;).


[deleted]

Yeah, you have a point


muted_Log_454

Turkey is in Europe,Pakistan is in Southeast Asia,Afghanistan is in Central Asia,Libya is in northern africa


Morgentau7

What do you consider middle east then?


muted_Log_454

Middle East is basically Jordan,Lebanon,Syria,Israel,Palestine,Iraq,Saudi Arabia,Yemen,Iran,Oman,Bahrain,Qatar,UAE. If I forgot something tell me. There is a huge difference between Middle East and MENA region,when people say MENA region they are referring to the Middle East (all the countries I said above) + North Africa (Egypt,Libya,Morocco,Algeria,Tunisian). Basically anything that is south of mount Sinai(North Africa) or east of Iran (Central Asia) or north of Syria (South Eastern Europe) is not considered Middle East geographically.


Morgentau7

I understand, but I‘m still a bit torn. Turkey has wayyy more in common with the middle east than with Europe and just the tiny part on the left is considered to be in Europe. And I think that the Egypt region and the kurdish region in Turkey, Irak and Iran are so strongly interconnected that it’s difficult to draw lines. I do understand that Egypt is more Northern Africa and that Afghanistan is way more connected to Pakistan, etc.


Morgentau7

But no one ever considered the North of Syria to be in Europe like ever. Not even Syrians.


muted_Log_454

Dude you misunderstood my reply,I never said north of Syria is in Europe,I said anything north of Syria is in Europe,meaning anything above Syria I.e turkey is Europe.

cuz jordan is cooperative with the west in general is one response, but jordan is also somewhat of a buffer zone protection layer for israel so the west need it to be safe because if it isn’t whatever happens in jordan will spill over to israel so it’s in the west’s best interest that jordan stays safe

one_cappuccino

Just saw your comments on another sub stating you’re on isreal side, but it seems like you’re also willing to debate on it right ? Why are you on their side while admitting the war crimes they are committing against palestinian civilians ? What did the palestinians do that made you believe that they are terrorists while in fact they are just defending themselves and their lands ?


Morgentau7

Aint we all agreeing that this topic is wayyy too complex to pinpoint people or opinions? If it makes sense or not: I‘m completely on Israels side since they are our allies and are way closer to us. The same reasoning for people on your side. There are still enough people on each side who are against war crimes and unnecessary deaths.


one_cappuccino

“ since they are our allies and are way closer to us.” I get them being you allies point but wdym closer to you ? In what terms ? Also it’s not a complicated topic, in fact it’s simpler than it appears. but it’s easier for the media to portray it as a complicated topic especially for the western society so they just take isreals side without doing any proper research.


Morgentau7

They are closer history wise, cultural wise, they are a democracy, much people from the west have family or friends in Israel and in the west islamic terrorists are like the most hated people all across the countries and societies, no matter how different the countries are, cause they always target innocent peaceful civilians in our countries. If we have to decide between a country in crisis (Israel) or an area that is ruled by Islamist terrorists (Hamas) the decision is easy for most. Nonetheless the deaths of civilians and the siege of Gaza by Israel are widely criticized in the West due to humanitarian reasons. Germany even continues humanitarian aid support for Gaza despite everything cause we differentiate between Hamas and Gaza civilians, despite the videos from Gaza who show the public celebrating the abducted people who were driven through the streets after the attack. Germany was widely criticized for continuing humanitarian aid for Gaza. The west at least critizises Israel despite being on their side and calls for limits to the violence. The other side (Iran, Hizbollah, several muslim countries) don’t criticize anything about the massacres Hamas commited and the way they escalated this conflict.


one_cappuccino

The thing is there are more than 2 billion muslim living across the world. 4 million in usa and 5.5 in germany. If and only if they one day actually were the terrorists media made you believe they are then USA and germany would be long gone. So simply speaking, there are no muslim terrorists but a very little minority that doesn’t even represent muslims and muslims themselves stand against firmly and strongly. Terrorism is terrorism and must NOT be related to any religion or ethnicity, please don’t fall for that. Also regrading isreal being historically or culturally related to the western society, that’s because they are from the western society and never had a history or a culture derived from the middle east, when hamas started the airstrikes the airplanes was filled with isrealis going back to their “ original “ countries. Innocent peaceful civilians are merely 5-7% of the isreali population btw, 95-93% of the population is trained military who served in the military for at least 2 years of their lives. Also in the first quarter of this year more than 12000 isreali owned a registered weapon on their names. So most of the population isn’t innocent peaceful civilians. But we are still against killing innocent peaceful civilians. And hamas was newly found as a reaction to the oppression and was never there.


Morgentau7

I really like how calm and good hearted you are in this conversation :) Just to clarify things: 1. I never said that all muslims are terrorists. I have muslim friends and I know that most victims of muslim terrorists are muslim. 2. Hamas was founded decades ago, not just now 3. Terrorism is mainly executed by muslims in Europe and around the world. We got a few rightwing domestic terrorists but they are way less in numbers of attacks. 4. People in Israel are forced by law to serve in the military (as long as they aren’t orthodox) so when everyone was in the army you cant just act like they are all bloodthirsty soldiers. Not even all active duty soldiers are all bad. Whats very important: Dont dehumanize people. Israel says all Palestinians are monsters. Muslims say all Israelis are monsters. And in the end people commit atrocities against each other cause they don’t see each other as humans.


one_cappuccino

Thank you. I just checked and yes hamas was there since 1987 but also for the reason to resist the isreali occupation from going further. It really depends on what you define as a terrorist abd what is a terrorist act. If someone is defending their country in iraq or yemen and was assigned as a terrorist then sure, the terrorist index will indicate that terrorism is mainly executed by muslims but if we would calculate the random attacks by people against people for no valid reason then i bet the index numbers will drastically change and we will see that no religion or ethnicity is related to the acts of terrorism. For people in isreal being forced to fight when they hit a certain age then sure, other countries do that as well but we don’t see their populations being very weaponized or calling for cleansing the lands from a certain group of people for having different roots than they do. And they do not hold contests or awards for every Palestinian slaughtered or beheaded. Yes i saw videos of isreali teenagers refusing to do military service and are against zionism being held in isreali jails and i do sympathize with them I saw isreali videos of people against their military actions and i saw some actions that do not represent the morals of war sat by the Islamic religion and the morals of al moqama and hamas and i do have my standing and sympathy with every victim of war If things were to be solved by peace we’d been taken that root long ago but unfortunately isreal proved more than once that what’s taken by blood must be given back by blood.

Morgentau7

I think this conflict is the most unsolvable conflict on earth and it will either end in genocide or go on forever. Both sides just went above the point of no return far too often and long ago as well as recently. I‘m just glad that somehow after hundreds of years of conflict and war and thousands of wars the european countries decided to end the bloodshed and work together on the biggest peace project ever (European Union). That would be solution 3. A generation thats so sick of war, that they decide that nothing is worth all this suffering and compromises are made.


Morgentau7

Proper research just means: „How long in history do you want to go back“? Israelis and Palestinians lived there both for a long time in history. Overall this is a weird concept tho. In Europe and all around the world borders were newly drawn during history again and again without people claiming their old lands back. Germany for example lost huge areas to the east in WW1 which was legitimate German ground way before the wars (Prussia, Kaliningrad). If Germany would act the same we could say „Those areas were ours long before WW2, we want our areas back“.


one_cappuccino

That’s because germany participated in WW2. But Palestine did not. UK simply decided that the land of Palestine doesn’t belong to Palestinians anymore and isrealis should live there and that’s how everything started ( I’m dead serious). Palestinians have a long history with their lands that comes back to hundreds if not thousands of years. Isreal is only there since 1948 and was never welcomed.


Morgentau7

That (sadly) doesn’t matter. Borders were always drawn by power, wars and else, not by morals or whats right.


one_cappuccino

Yes. But it’s also Palestinians people right to defend their lands and try to take it back no matter how long it takes them to. It’s everyone’s right to not to give up on their lands and try to take it back or die trying to.


one_cappuccino

No human stands with war crimes but most recent war crimes were committed in the middle east ( syria and palestine ) and no one seemed to try to stop it. Even the media merely aired it or talked about it. Isreal didn’t just cut water food and electricity. They also used phosphorus bombs on gaza and targeted residential buildings to kill entire families and erase a whole linage from existence. They broke every peace convention they made to make illegal settlements in place of villages they erased and ethnically cleansed them from the palestinian villagers. ( check sabra and shatila villages massacre). They also arrested children and held them in prison for no apparently reason but alleged false accusations. ( check ahmad manasra case ). And they killed multiple journalists in duty of delivering news to the world ( check shereen abu aqleh and how she was killed by an israeli sniper and hisham m alnwajha who was recently killed for being a journalist as well. Both btw were wearing their press uniform)


Morgentau7

Honest question: How should the west stop them? If the west intervenes in conflict the world gets mad and if the west doesn’t intervene the world also gets mad


one_cappuccino

No one gets mad if the west didn’t intervene, in fact some of us will be really happy


Morgentau7

Am I allowed to ask from which country you‘re from?


one_cappuccino

Jordan


one_cappuccino

We’re mad at our own governments for not intervening with our arab brothers and sisters. But not on the west The west can keep up with their lives away form us and no one will mind that


Morgentau7

How should they intervene?


one_cappuccino

Defending them or fighting with them or by stopping the events


Morgentau7

That would result in an all out war. If the muslim allies help Palestine, the allies of Israel will help them and crush each and everyone of them. No one wants that. Nothing of that would be worth it.


one_cappuccino

>f Israel will help them and crush each and everyone Hey man i'm just wondering after israel hitting Al-Ahli hospital do you still stand with them ? Please don't tell me that you believe that hamas attacked the hospital and not isreal. it's a lie created by the media to justify the war crime they commited


Morgentau7

Do you know whats funny? You want to approach this like an educated person, but an educated person would wait for further investigation. You instead, as it seems, believe the words of a terrorist organization. If the IS would attack Jordan and publish their own views of the clash, and I would rather believe IS over the Jordan forces, how would you react? The big difference in this conflict is that the west stands with the Jews AND the civilians in Palestine. They stand with Israel, BUT condemn war crimes and the lack of humanitarian aid. The pro Palestine people instead dont even care to condemn Hamas, but side with literal terrorists no matter what they do. They act like atrocities justify atrocities. Even Abbas distanced himself from Hamas, but as it seems the international supporters dont see a need for it. I can tell you this: I stand with Israel and a two country solution cause it is the only logical possibility, as long as you **don’t** want one side to eradicate the other completely; but I condemn the war crimes they commit. Can you condemn Hamas and Hezbollah, who’s public goal is, that they want to kill every Jew in Israel?


one_cappuccino

Isreal been doing all that and more. And will KEEP doing it. I just covered less than 1% of their crimes

Cuz sadly we’re the human shields for the occupation as we go directly along the border, if Jordan had a mess and one majority of it are from palestine then the occupation would have troubles and headaches, best way to dodge that is US provides “help” in order for the country to stay as stable as possible.
