A Jordanian official on Tuesday criticized the so-called Israeli “muezzin law”, which would ban places of worship, such as mosques, from using loudspeakers that disturb residents.

The bill is aimed at limiting the noise of the muezzin, the Muslim who calls followers to prayer five times daily.

The undersecretary of Jordan’s Ministry of Islamic Affairs, Abdullah Abbadi, denounced the law and said that any decision by Israel with regards to Jerusalem's holy shrines is “false and insignificant”.

Really, Mr. Official. I guess you know that Israel is the Promised Land and the Jews are His chosen people. I wouldn’t be messing with God if I were you.

...but Jordanian secret services can clamp down on the Muslim Brotherhood and any element that threatens the crown, right? Hey Jordan, have you forgotten who saved your rear ends in 1970 with FATAH “Black Spetember”??? Israel saved your sorry rear ends...

The Muslim call to prayer is a stench in the ear.

Turkey does so why not Israel?

Most calls to prayer recordings played over loud speaker. Turkey forbids the use of the use of a recording. The call must be done live.

Yikes. I’d rather hear Carol Burnett do the Tarzan Yell five times a day than that morbid drone.

I remember hearing that sound when I was in Morocco. Contrary to Obama’s characterization, it was the creepiest sound I’ve ever heard.

Jordan, a nation CAN do what they want. If the USA wants to DEPORT Mexicans we can. If Canada wants to ban left handed blond haired people, they can.

"An occupier cannot make any historical change to the city it occupies, and things (must) remain the same without any change,”

Isn't that exactly how the Dome of the Crock was built? Muslim invaders overran the city and then started making changes.

I’d go a step further. Since Mad Mo didnt use electricity, the calls can’t be amplified artificially.
