Amman – This clip is a video of Jordanian MPs reacting to Israeli cabinet member Itamar Ben-Gvir’s recent visit to the Temple Mount Compound in Jerusalem. The video was posted to the Jordanian Parliament’s YouTube on January 4, 2023.

Khalil Attiyah: “Let us remind you, you coward, you pig, that Jordan’s border with Palestine is more than 300 kilometers long. It is a time bomb that will explode in your face and in the faces of people like you, you coward.”

Muhammad Al-Shatnawi: “We must stand firmly behind His Royal Highness. In order to make them feel… or rather, to strike fear into them. As everybody knows, the Jews are one of of the most cowardly nations in the world. As I said before, as soon as they see the tiniest ripple on the [Jordan] River, all of them escape into their fortresses. This is a red line. We will sacrifice our souls for Jerusalem and the holy places. We will give it all we have. We are prepared to be martyrs, and be the first ones to use sticks, bombs, and guns against this plundering entity.”

Asma Saleh Al-Rawahneh: “If [the Jews] want to turn this into a war of religions, then that will be their end, Allah willing. That’s for one. Secondly, I’d like to rebuke [my colleague] Abu Hussein, despite his passion. It is women who are making a stand now, they are leading the revolutions, and they are raising the torch of freedom all over the world. They are the mothers raising their sons for jihad. They are strong. That mouse [Ben-Gvir] should not be compared to women. He is a mouse, and he should not be compared to any woman on the face of the earth.”

Suleiman Abu Yahya: “History is the best evidence for the Jews’ defeats. I would like to tell every Jew in Palestine that the tides are turning. There are woman here who give birth to many children. The day will come when we will storm Tel Aviv, and that is a promise from Allah.”

MP Zohair Al-Saideen (see MEMRI TV Clip No. 8875) cited a hadith predicting that on Judgement Day, the trees and the stones in Palestine will call upon the Muslims to kill the Jews hiding behind them.
