Jordanians Protest "Recognition of Zionist Entity" through Tourism
(DPA-Ha'aretz) Opposition party leaders and prominent unionists from the National Committee for Resisting Normalization of Ties with Israel demonstrated before the Jordanian Ministry of Tourism on Monday to protest the offering of package tours to east Jerusalem because they involved obtaining visas from the Israeli embassy in Amman. "Applying for a visa from Israel is recognition of its existence," said Abdullah Obeidat, president of the Jordan Engineers Association, who on Sunday instructed the group's members to refrain from joining the package tours or lose their membership.
