IsraelNN.com) Jordan "would prefer to be at war with Israel rather than accept" a merger with the Jordan Valley, a Jordanian official told French news agency AFP. "Jordan does not want to be linked to 30 or 50 percent of a territory which it owned from 1950 to 1967. To get half or less of the West Bank with all the Palestinian population would be suicide," the unnamed official explained.
