Jordan's King Abdullah says that no conflict has caused more damage than "Palestinian-Israeli conflict"

Jordan's King Abdullah, in his speech to the UN, said literally nothing about Jordan.

Most of his speech was to support "Palestine" and to insult Israel.

But this section was so over the top as to sound like a parody:

My friends,
Collective action is also vital for ending bitter crises and conflicts. And no crisis has done more global damage than the core conflict in my region, the Palestinian-Israeli conflict

Global damage?

Britannica has the eight most deadly conflicts of the 21st century listed. Congo is the worst, with 3 million killed. #8 is Ukraine with 10,000 killed. In between are the Syrian civil war, Iraq and Yemen - all in the same region as Jordan!

Maybe he means that when Jews peacefully visit the Temple Mount, that they hurt the feelings of a billion Muslims and therefore that causes more global damage than any actual wars?

It begins with respect for the holy sites and rejecting all attempts to alter the legal status of East Jerusalem and the authentic historic character of the Holy City, Jerusalem. What lessons do we teach young people, when armed personnel enter Al Aqsa Mosque/Al Haram Al Sharif, even as Muslim worshippers gather to pray?

I'll tell you what lesson you are teaching them. You are teaching them that if Jews enter the site, they must be torn limb from limb, and therefore Jews must visit under protection.

Not exactly the tolerant message the King is pretending to give.

Forty years ago, my father, His Majesty the late King Hussein, who loved peace, stood in this very chamber, and decried the occupation and attempts, in his words, "to eradicate from the world's memory centuries of history and tradition and of spiritual, moral, and cultural ideals."

Israel has done far more to save and preserve Muslim history in Jerusalem than King Hussein ever did. The difference is that Israel also preserves Jewish history, and King Hussein and his father before him did everything they could to erase that.

The hypocrisy is off the charts. And this is the "moderate" Jordan, with a king who seems cool and modern with excellent English.
