The late Secretary of State Henry Kissinger, who passed away last week at the age of 100, gave a recent interview in which he suggested that Hamas’s terror attack October 7 had killed the two-state solution, and Jordan should rule the West Bank.
The October 18 interview, published by Politico on Saturday, is thought possibly to be Kissinger’s last. It includes the following:

Probably this is as good a time as any to point out that in the News forum, there’s now a Topic for Jordan:
https://freerepublic.com/tag/jordon-news/index
But, as you can see, it’s a misspelling (Jordon).
Jordan was always the de facto “Palestinian state.”
The “Palestinians” don’t want their own “state.” They have had multiple opportunities over the years following WWII to get one, and they have declined every one of them.
They want the state of Israel not to exist, and all Israelis dead.
It’s not rocket surgery.
> Jordan should rule the West Bank <
Kissinger was either kidding or he was losing his common sense. Yes, Jordan once controlled the West Bank. But why in the world would Jordan want it now?
It would be nothing but trouble. It’s a very poor region. And when the population wasn’t plotting against each other, they’d be plotting against Jordan’s monarchy.
And then there are the Israeli settlements scattered throughout the area. They won’t be leaving. And they won’t be accepting Jordanian rule either.
If I were the King of Jordan, I’d say, “Thanks but no thanks. And don’t ask again.”
Jordan might not think that’s such a great idea. They said so in September, 1970.
Rule what? Anyway, he’s dead Jim.
Jordan’s monarchy is founded on sand and good government. Yet more Palestinians would be quick-sand. The King will not go for it.
Jordan doesn’t have to want it. It needs to be imposed on them
No way in hell. Jordan invaded in 1948 and seized judaea and Samaria and proceeded to use it as a launching pad against the rest of Israel. Jordan — especially under its current hostile king— can GTH as far as I’m

If you ever watch the movie Lawrence of Arabia, there is a scene where Omar Sheriffs character shoots a Bedu (or as they are commonly called Bedouin) as the Bedu man drank at his well, which is against the law... Palestinians are the Bedouin... They have no tribe, they are the outcast of the desert, that is what Palestinian’s are and why no Arab country wants them.
Nomads. They flooded in after Israel became a state. Should be called totally-mad. Palestinian used to refer to Jews living in Palestine, until the nomad Bedouins usurped the term for themselves in recent memory.
3 MINUTES OF VIDEO DYNAMITE...FROM 1965!!
If THIS doesn’t stir up the folks STILL ON THE SIDELINES, WE’RE PROBABLY NOT WORTH SAVING!!
SHARE IT EVERYWHERE. TIME IS SHORT!

Maybe Kissinger had forgotten, Adbullah’s dad King Hussein fought a war to expel them from Jordan and his Arab Legion chopped up two Syrian divisions riding to the rescue. And to show how I remember stupid stuff in 1970 the very Liberal writer Pete Hamill wrote in Dolly Schiff’s liberal rag the NY Post that if the Palestinians wanted a state they had one in Jordan. The land between the river and the Sea was Israel’s.
Odd. Kissinger should have remembered 1970 and Black September. Jordan doesn’t *want* the Palestinians. The last time they had an infestation of Palestinians, that Palis tried to overthrow the government and assassinate the king, and it cost the Jordanians a lot of blood and trouble to get rid of them.
But it is brain science, apparently. 🤣
Good tweet. I used to listen to Paul Harvey, starting from the late 1960’s I think. As a teen I worked part-time in a sign shop in SF, and the boss always listened to conservative talk radio. That got me hooked, back when us teens only listened to rock music radio stations. Learned a lot, and in the early 1970’s I switched to being a Republican. I didn’t think society and culture would go downhill so rapidly to what it is today. Devil has been working behind the scenes and people are naive.
I’ve never heard nor seen such a screwed up bunch of idiots as the Palestinian people who celbrate death. Even when they speak they’re comments are totally immature and unsensible.
I’m sure Israel would love to be able to get out of the $hit hole known as the West Bank (if they don’t get attacked every other day).
The results of inbreeding are irrefutable.
