  • Author and Pastor Tony Campolo Tells How He Was Asked Years Ago to Be a Counselor at a Junior High Summer Bible Camp
    1 Good Friday and the Passion in John's Gospel Homily at St. John of God Church, San Francisco April 22, 2011 by Deacon Brian Bromberger Author and pastor Tony Campolo tells how he was asked years ago to be a counselor at a junior high summer Bible camp. He observed that a junior high kid’s concept of a good time is picking on other kids. And at this particular camp, there was a little boy named Billy who was suffering from cerebral palsy. As Billy walked across the camp with his uncoordinated body, the other kids would line up and imitate his strange movements, teasing him mercilessly. One day, Billy was asking for directions, “Which way is the craft shop?” he stammered, his mouth contorting. And the boys mimicked him in that same mocking stuttering, “It’s over…there…Billy.” And then they laughed at him. Two days later, it was Billy’s cabin’s turn to give morning devotions and prayers. Tony wondered what would happen because his fellow cabin mates had appointed Billy to be the speaker. Tony knew that they just wanted to get Billy up there to make fun of him. As Billy dragged his way to the front, you could hear the giggles rolling over the crowd. It took him almost five minutes to say 7 words. These were the words: “Jesus… loves..me..and..I ..love..Jesus!” When Billy finished, there was dead silence. Tony looked over his shoulders and saw junior high boys crying all over the place. A revival broke out in that camp after Billy’s short testimony.

In the first part, I am going to assess their relations before the Wadi Araba Treaty otherwise known as the peace treaty between the State of Israel and the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan signed in 1994. The second part will be dealing with their post-1994 relationship and how such a document changed and shaped their relations and how it has evolved since then. In the analytical part, I will explore possible situations for future or potential future relations, taking into account external variables like ISIS and the Palestinian question which hinder the improvement of their current relationship. Through the prism of constructivism, I will assess their situation to explain the hostility and disputes dealt with through time between these two nations.

  • Normalization and Anti-Normalization in Jordan
    "NORMALIZATION" AND "ANTI-NORMALIZATION" IN JORDAN: THE PUBLIC DEBATE By Paul L. Scham and Russell E. Lucas* The Jordan-Israel peace treaty, signed in October 1994, was accompanied on both sides by high hopes of warm relations between the peoples of the two countries. A wide range of factors, however, led to a deterioration in any public support for the peace agreement on the Jordanian side. These included: the limits of economic benefits arising from the agreement; the slow, and uncertain pace of Israeli-Palestinian negotiations; Israel’s 1996 "Grapes of Wrath" operation in Lebanon and attempted assassination of Hamas leader Khalid Mishal in September 1997; the strength of traditional anti-Israel feeling especially among Palestinians; and the vigorous "anti- normalization" movement, led by the Islamic Action Front and the country’s professional associations. For almost twenty years, from the 1970s process underway, Israelis saw no reason for until the Jordanian-Israeli peace treaty of continuing enmity between the two countries. 1994, Israel and Jordan maintained quasi- It took a while for Israelis to realize that normal, albeit secret, relations.
