Jordan confirmed on Wednesday that “The Jordanian King Abdullah II will participate personally on Thursday in conducting air strikes against the shelters of the terrorist ISIL organization to revenge the execution of the Jordanian pilot Maath al-Kassasba by the ISIL.”

Media outlets reported the King Abdullah II as saying “The war against ISIL will not end and we will fight them in their shelters.”

I hope the King of Jordan beats/bombs ISIS to a pulp. But he’s a Muslim and I’m sorry, I can’t think of any Muslim as any sort of ally or hero.

I suspect there is a fair amount of respect between these two.

So you're saying Abdullah didn't blame a Youtube video?
Doesn't he know how influential they are?

There have been rumors of cooperation over the years.

I know Abdulla sent one of his kids to Israel for an emergency surgery a few years back. Plus he sends his dogs to an Israeli vet.

Can you picture Obama on a raid with the Seals? He’d be whimpering the whole time. I probably would be, too. But I’m not the president.

The Hashemites were sold down river by the Brits and Americans through St-John Philby back when Saudi Arabia was formed. They are the legitimate custodians of Mecca and Medina and the Middle East would look very different today has they been in charge. Perhaps this is an opportunity for King Abdullah to show true leadership and take the opportunity to expand his kingdom?

King Obama is probably using US intelligence to warn ISIS about Jordan’s impending strike.

That would be a distinct possibility, although they themselves washed their hands of the caliphate when they established the present secular state. The next claimants were the Hashemites, then rulers of the Hejaz and the present rulers of Jordan.

Possibly, although access to great oil wealth might have been a corrupting factor.
