Just in case we consider King Abdullah II Israel's friend...
Ahlam al-Tamimi: Jordan refuses to extradite her to US
US prosecutors allege woman accompanied suicide bomber and ordered him to detonate explosives in Jerusalem pizzeria.
Jordan planner of 2001 blast [is] relieved [that] US extradition [is] blocked http://www.foxnews.com/world/2017/03/23/jordan-planner-2001-blast-relieved-us-extradition-blocked.html
It's seems logical that Israel and the Jewish People and the civilized world should be pressuring Jordan to release Tamimi...Yet I have strong reservations that our efforts would be successful. ...that is not until we show Jordan that we mean business in asserting Sovereignty over our Land and mean business in protecting our Holy Sites and our People...
King Abdullah II is clearly making peace with Abbas right now. Both seem to have greatly benefited from their claimed success to get Israel to capitulate and remove the Metal Detectors on Temple Mount.
So what is the root of Israel's inability to withstand the Palestinian Rage directed against them?
It comes from Israel's failure to assert Sovereignty over Temple Mount.
Palestinians want Control and Sovereignty over Temple Mount... They want it so that Israel won't have it. For Israel, what is paramount and primary is keeping peace and security over Temple Mount, the Holiest Jewish Site, for both Jews and non Jews alike. Exercising Sovereignty and Control is secondary.
The Temple Mount Affair: What Has Changed? - Brig.-Gen. (res.) Yossi Kuperwasser
My take is as follows....We messed up big time with Temple Mount. There is no way that Abdullah II will agree to extradite Tamimim especially now after he is claiming victory over Israel's capitulation. Israel stands alone. The entire civilized world will not be holier than the pope! Since when has the world really cared about Israel's victims of Terror?
Let Netanyahu put back the metal detectors and claim Har HaBayit.
Jordan is dependent on Israel for their water and economy. Only then we can think of insisting that Jordan extradite Tamimi. Can you imagine the Rage in Jordan against Abdullah II if he capitulated to the Israeli's or even to an International Court to extradite their hero Tamimi?
Even if we judge King Abdullah II favorably, that he is moderate and a friend of Israel, he is walking a tightrope. His grandfather Abdulah I was assassinated according to Ron Kampeas bc of his peace efforts towards Israel. Surely King Abdullah is wary of standing up to Terrorists who murdered Israeli's for good reason.
In addition, his most recent actions clearly show he is not in the peace making mode with Israel..
According to wikipedia, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abdullah_II_of_Jordan
After Donald Trump's inauguration as United States president on 20 January 2017, Abdullah traveled to the US on an official visit.[70] He was worried about the new administration's positions on the Israeli–Palestinian conflict (specifically, issues relating to Israeli settlements) and Trump's electoral campaign promise to relocate the American embassy to Jerusalem, a move which Jordan considers a "red line".[71] Abdullah met Trump briefly at the National Prayer Breakfast on 2 February, and reportedly convinced him to change his policy towards Israeli settlements.[72] This was substantiated by White House press secretary Sean Spicer, who said two days later that the expansion of Israeli settlements may not be helpful in achieving peace.[70]
Again, I am no expert. My guess is that the King of Jordan is intimidated by the Palestinians and Radical Islamic elements in his empire.
"Israel cannot convince Arab nations to help it resolve the Palestinian conflict any more than it can convince the PLO to cut a peace deal with it.
Like PLO leaders, the leaders of the Arab world know that they cannot help Israel with the Palestinians.
Doing so would involve disowning the Palestinian narrative.
The Palestinian narrative claims that the Jews of Israel are colonialist interlopers who stole the land from the Palestinians, its rightful owners. The narrative makes no distinction between Tel Aviv and Hebron. All of Israel is a crime against the Arab world. All of Israel is illegitimate.
The overwhelming majority of the Arab world believes the Palestinian narrative. For an Arab leader to walk away from it or even to signal an attenuation of his fealty to it in the interest of regional peace would be the riskiest of moves.
Israel has nothing to offer Arab leaders that could induce them to take that risk." (my emphasis)

This entire incident at Temple Mount opened our eyes clearly about Jordan. John Bolton who loves Israel was deceived with Jordan, hoping that they and Egypt can be a peace partner but after what happened on Temple Mount, I hope he sees the truth of the matter.

6 things you didn't know about the Six-Day War by Ron Kampeas

For 20 years, Jews paid fees to a symbol of Palestinian pride.
"Separate and Unequal," penned by three Israelis – Amir Cheshin and Avi Melamed, two former municipality liaisons to the city's Palestinian population, and journalist Bill Hutman – cited the conundrum as an example of the balancing act that Israeli officials had to perform: Maintaining a Jewish claim to the entire city, while at times deferring to Palestinian nationalism, in order to keep the peace.
Ron Kampeas in this JTA article says that Jerusalem was never officially annexed or declared under Israeli Sovereignty.Can Jordan be trusted not to advance against Israel when pressured by other Arabs as in 1967 when they attacked Israel? Perhaps what happened to King Abdullah I is what Caroline Glick is afraid of and therefore referred to Bolton's Proposal as "riskiest of moves"....

Kampeas writes:
During most of his reign, King Hussein of Jordan sought a peaceful arrangement with Israel, taking a cue from his beloved grandfather, King Abdullah I, whom he saw assassinated in Jerusalem in 1951 because he was seeking peace with Israel.Like his grandfather, he sought peace in secret but did not escape opprobrium – and was wary of meeting Abdullah's fate. Hussein felt he had little choice but to join President Gamal Abdel Nasser of Egypt in saber rattling against Israel in 1967 – Nasser, wildly popular in the Arab world, had already taunted the king as being subservient to Israel.Moreover, Israel had humiliated Hussein a year earlier with a massive daylight raid into his territory to exact revenge for an attack carried out by Palestinian Fatah troops, who then operated with relative impunity from Jordanian soil.According to historian Martin Gilbert's "Jerusalem Illustrated History Atlas," on June 4, 1967, Israeli Prime Minister Levi Eshkol relayed a message to Hussein: "We shall not initiate any action whatsoever against Jordan. However, should Jordan open hostilities, we shall react with all our might and (Hussein) will have to bear the full responsibility for all the consequences."At 8:30 a.m. the following day, Jordan started shelling western Jerusalem, and at 9:30 a.m., Hussein broadcast, "The hour of revenge has come."Kampeas suggests that Jordan since then has gained Israel's trust.
King Hussein drove Fatah out of Jordan in 1970 and in 1973 waited out the Yom Kippur War. In 1986, he came close to signing a peace deal with Israel.
In 1994, symbols bold and subtle made evident that Hussein had earned the trust of leading Israelis. The king was present at Israel's Arava terminal when Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin signed a peace treaty with his Jordanian counterpart, Abdelsalam al-Majali.
Ted Belman calls for King Abdulah to abdicate to the JOC (Jordan Opposition Coalition) The ultimate alternate Israel-Palestine solution
Personally, I think that if King Abdullah abdicates, Most Palestinians will join Hamas or ISIS unless USA and Israel intervenes big time. JOC a secular Palestinian State doesn't have much of a chance against Fatah or Hamas or Isis.
If King Abdullah extradites Tamimi, the RAGE would be explosive!
What choice does Israel have? If they want to seriously extradite Tamimi let them suggest that Israel is willing to expand it's borders if it is threatened by it's surrounding neighbors who are intent on protecting terrorists who are intent on Israel's destruction be it Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, Hamas, Isis, Fatah and Iran.
Israel should be willing to expand it's territory going to the Euphrates River, as was the original boundaries of the Balfour declaration as was the Original Mandate of Palestine in 1920 and consistent with the Biblical boundaries promised to Abraham in Brit Bein Habesarim https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covenant_of_the_pieces.
| 24Every place upon which the soles of your feet will tread, will be yours: from the desert and the Lebanon, from the river, the Euphrates River, and until the western sea, will be your boundary. | כדכָּל־הַמָּק֗וֹם אֲשֶׁ֨ר תִּדְרֹ֧ךְ כַּף־רַגְלְכֶ֛ם בּ֖וֹ לָכֶ֣ם יִֽהְיֶ֑ה מִן־הַמִּדְבָּ֨ר וְהַלְּבָנ֜וֹן מִן־הַנָּהָ֣ר נְהַר־פְּרָ֗ת וְעַד֙ הַיָּ֣ם הָאַֽחֲר֔וֹן יִֽהְיֶ֖ה גְּבֻֽלְכֶֽם: |
The Stone Edition Commentary נְהַר־פְּרָ֗ת The Euphrates River
The borders given in Numbers 34:1-12 are nowhere near the Euphrates. Those were the borders of the generations that entered the Land. Here Moses looked to the coming of the Messiah when the Euphrates will be the borders of the Land.
