Fatah Council Member: Any Iranian Threat to Jordan’s Stability Is Affront to Palestinian People

Fatah Revolutionary Council member Mohammed Al-Hourani said in an April 3, 2024 interview on Al-Arabiya Network (Saudi Arabia) that the demonstrations and sentiment in support of the Gaza Strip throughout Jordan must not be turned against the Jordanian state as he said Iran is attempting to do. He referred to the recent Iraqi militia calls to establish and arm a 12,000-man militia in Jordan, and he explained that Iran has no problem scorching Arab land, exploiting the “pure name“ of Palestine, and pitting Arabs against one another in order to bolster its influence in the region. Al-Hourani also said that due to the brotherly relations between the Palestinian and Jordanian peoples, any threats to the stability of Jordan is an affront to the Palestinians.
