Went from his parents were Jordanian to Palestinians from the West Bank in addition to everything else. This Lt General that gave the press conference was the one who announced the shooter was dead this afternoon. Makes even less sense.

In the lead-up to the 6 day war, the west bank Palestinians were encouraged to move to Jordan so they wouldn’t be in the way of the Arab forces. They were assured that once Israel was destroyed they could move back home. When that didn’t work out, Jordan got fed up with the PLO and drove them out in 69-70. So if the family moved here from Jordan in the sixties, Palestinian would be a significant possibility.
