(Jerusalem Post) Caroline B. Glick - When Israel withdrew from the international border between Gaza and Egypt, it assumed that the regime of Hosni Mubarak would always be in power, and that Mubarak's regime would secure the border. According to then Israel Security Agency director Yuval Diskin, in the three months after Israel withdrew from Gaza in August 2005, the Palestinians smuggled more weapons into Gaza from Egypt than they had in the previous 38 years, when Israel controlled the border. Secretary of State John Kerry's security arrangements along the Jordan Valley are predicated on similar notions - that the Hashemite regime will remain in power forever, and that the Hashemites will want to protect the border forever. This ignores the instability of the Arab world as a whole and the fact that the overwhelming majority of Jordanians are Palestinians. Even if King Abdullah II manages to remain in power, his children are half Palestinian. So even if the Hashemites remain in power, there is no reason to believe that their commitment to peace with Israel will be maintained over time. 2013-12-27 00:00:00Full Article
