Jordan is the nation that is so xenophobic that it refuses to admit the people of the West Bank as citizens of their nation, right?

It's not Xenophobia - The Jordanians were the smart ones.

They booted the so-called Palestinians out back in 1970 and 1971 because they were such troublemakers and were actively trying to oust Jordanian King Hussein and seize control of the country.

It was a civil war started by the PLO and PFLP in which the Jordanian government prevailed and expelled the Palestinians.

Around 15,000 Palestinians died and 50,000 to 100,000 were left homeless.

The conflict is known in the Arab world as Black September.
