“I will gather all
the nations And bring them down to the Valley of Yehoshafat. There I will contend
with them Over My very own people, Yisrael, Which they scattered among the
nations. For they divided My land among themselves,” Joel 4:2 (The Israel
Bible™)

A report in Arab media stated the President Trump’s
long-awaited Middle-East Peace plan includes resettling up to one million
Palestinians in Jordan in exchange for $45 billion in development projects.
Al-Akbar, an Arabic-language news service based in
Beirut, reported on Friday that Jordanian King Abdullah II agreed to
the condition during his last visit to Washington. In addition, Israel would
reacquire land in Tzofar, a town in the Arava desert, and Naharayim, where
Jordan conquered in 1948 the Island of Peace and a hydroelectric power-plant
that belonged to Israel. Israel currently leases the land however it is
officially part of Jordan. Jordan would receive an equivalent amount of land
from Saudi Arabia. Jordan will retain a supervisory status over the Muslim holy
sites in Jerusalem.
Jordan will also assimilate one million Palestinians from
Israel in exchange for $45 billion in investments from Saudi Arabia and other Gulf
states. For comparison, Jordan’s entire Gross Domestic Product (GDP) is
only $40 billion. The absorption of the new Palestinian citizens will take
place in stages, the first stage composed of approximately 300,000 people.
According to the report in Al-Akhbar, King Abdullah told
Egyptian officials that the American plan is for a confederation of the
Palestinian Authority, Jordan and the Israeli Civil Administration in Judea and
Samaria.
The report also said that Egypt will permit Palestinians
free entry via the Rafah crossing, to work legally in industrial zones in
Egypt, and to pursue a track to Egyptian citizenship. Egypt would be
compensated with $65 billion of projects in the northern Sinai.
Lebanon will award citizenship to the
approximately 450,000 Palestinian refugees and their descendants in their
country on condition they do not seek a return to Israel.
The plan significantly does not provide for establishing
a Palestinian state inside the borders of Israel.
