Jordan, this past Sunday: American officials transfer $745M to the kingdom |
- Adulation: As in the Washington Institute's Scholar-Statesman's Award bestowed on Jordan's King Abdullah II in November 2019 [link]
- Friendship: As in (by my count) 35 meetings since March 2017 with various U.S. dignitaries - in the White House, Capitol Hill and in the King's Jordanian Palace.
- Preferential treatment: As in ignoring the King's intransigent refusal to extradite mass murderer Ahlam Tamimi despite a valid extradition treaty with the U.S., despite the 2013 US indictment against her, despite the US Department of Justice demanding her extradition
- Cash Handouts: As in Sunday's $745 million transfer to the kingdom by the United States.
