Jordan’s Hussein
The answer to Israel’s dilemma? I guess it appeared to be the most natural thingin the world to Saddam Hussein--when the United States attacked Iraq, he sent Scud missiles against Israel. The fact that Israelis were innocent bystanders and non-participants in the war didn’t seem to matter.
Now, following that stream of logic, it would seem that Israelis should retaliate by attacking Jordan. Probably they should sloganize it--maybe by calling it the “three-for-one” plan. For every Scud missile that is directed at Israel, three Israeli missiles should be fired at Amman, Jordan.
What are good friends for, King Hussein?
