Jordan Islamists Protest as King Meets Obama
(AP) Hours before Jordan's king met with President Obama in California, his Islamist opposition at home staged its largest protest in months to reject a peace deal as a solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. The 1,200 protesters affiliated with Jordan's Muslim Brotherhood also burned the Israeli flag. Jordan's Brotherhood calls for Israel's annihilation through armed struggle. The protesters also demanded that Jordan's King Abdullah II "revoke the peace treaty with the Zionists."
