3.The Government of Jordan (GOJ) has been desperately trying to cover the fact that the attack took place on Jordanian soil. GOJ’s spokesman Muhannad Mubaidein told the media that “the attack took place at an American base inside Syria”. GOJ-controlled news sites, as well as additional news agencies, reported that the attack took place in Syria, not in Jordan.

4. Al-Arabiya, an internationally recognized Arab News Network, has also been promoting the GOJ’s claim(s). [COMMENT: Al-Arabiya is the second most watched TV network in the Arab world, after Aljazeera. It has been known to give “good press” to the GOJ and King of Jordan. END COMMENT]. On social media, the Jordanian public has ridiculed these claims, especially once President Biden acknowledged the attack and clearly stated that it took place in Jordan.

5.Comment: the GOJ’s bizarre actions, behavior and statements about the incidents, are possibly motivated by fears that fighting might escalate into a direct war against the Iranian militias based in Jordan with the King’s permission. Additionally, the GOJ has been welcoming to Iranian agents, especially those who hold Iraqi passports, and have extended that “welcoming” to others like Houthis agents, the Iranian-backed terror group controlling Yemen who have received the “red carpet treatment” when arriving at Jordanian airports. The special treatment stems from them being “fellow Hashemites, Hashemites whom are directly related to King Abdullah II, the Hashemite King of Jordan”.
