TIMES HAVEN'T CHANGED; THE ENEMY HASN'T CHANGED; ONLY THE COURAGE OF ARAB LEADERS AND THE POTUS HAS CHANGED

The late King Hussein of Jordan versus his son King Abdullah 2 of Jordan:

• Hussein fought a war to the death versus Arafat and the "extremists".

• Abdullah 2 is caving in.

Times haven't changed; (there were islamists killing leaders, then as now), but the courage and commitment to Western values of Arab leadership sure has changed.

And remember: it was the exit of Arafat from Jordan (forced by King Hussein) and his entry into Lebanon that led to the horrific Lebanese civil war:

September 1970 is known as the Black September (Arabic: أيلول الأسود‎) in Arab history and sometimes is referred to as the "era of regrettable events." It was a month when Hashemite King Hussein of Jordan moved to quash the militancy of Palestinian organizations and restore his monarchy's rule over the country.^[3]

The violence resulted in the deaths of thousands of people, the vast majority Palestinian.^[2]

Armed conflict lasted until July 1971 with the expulsion of the PLO and thousands of Palestinian fighters to Lebanon.

ISLAMISM BRINGS DEATH AND DESTRUCTION WITH IT WHEREVER IT GOES.

WE MUST DEFEAT IT OR SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES.

WITH LEADERS LIKE OBAMA AND KING ABDULLAH 2 - WHO ARE CAVING INTO THE ISLAMIST THREAT - WE SHALL CERTAINLY NOT DEFEAT THEM.
