Sharp divides persisted between the United States and its Arab partners on their response to Israel’s war against Hamas after Secretary of State Antony Blinken met with his Middle Eastern counterparts in Amman, Jordan on Saturday.
The top US diplomat attended a summit convened by the Jordanian Foreign Minister that was attended by the top diplomats from Egypt, Qatar, the United Arab Emirates, and Saudi Arabia, as well as the secretary general of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO).
At the summit, the Arab leaders called for an immediate ceasefire in Gaza while Blinken reiterated US opposition, arguing that it would give Hamas time to regroup and launch another attack on Israel.
Standing alongside Blinken at a press conference after the summit, Jordan and Egypt’s foreign ministers again called for an immediate ceasefire and strongly condemned the Israeli offensive in Gaza.
“The collective punishment – Israel targeting innocent civilians and facilities, medical facilities, paramedics, in addition to trying to force immigration for Palestinians to leave their lands – this cannot be a legitimate self-defense at all,” said Egyptian Foreign Minister Sameh Shoukry.
Blinken again called for Israel to “take every possible measure” to prevent civilian casualties – a message he had relayed in meetings in Tel Aviv on Friday.

Screw the Arab partners... There is only one country in the middle east that believes in freedom, elections and true peace... That country is Israel.
The rest of them are despot regimes run by religious zealots or maniacal leaders who are anti-freedom, anti-Semitic, anti-Christian, anti-American and anti-everything... They are full of hate for everybody and everything and they are bent on destroying life on earth as we know it.
9/11 was the beginning... The endgame for these lunatics is the complete destruction of all life on earth, until the world is a desert like the sh*tholes they live in.
The division is simple. One sided wants the whole Earth to be Islamic. The Islamic fanatics kill people to make that happen. The moderates want the fanatics to kill the Infidels. The rest of us want something else. How do you make peace with that?
Islam and the west are incompatible. Islam must leave.
The West and Communism were incompatible as well. The West isolated it like the deadly mind virus that it is. In the case of the Soviet Union the strategy worked. We should do it again to both China and Islamic nations.
Fracturing the Abraham Accords...
The World needs Donald Trump — not a platitude, not an exaggeration, but a reality — and the World knows this to be true.
