A political dispute between two royal brothers threatens stability in Jordan, a Middle East nation considered a key U.S. counterterrorism partner. Hamzeh bin Hussein, the popular half brother of King Abdullah II, was accused Sunday of conspiring to destabilize the kingdom. Hamzeh released a video Saturday accusing the government of corruption, incompetence, and intolerance for dissent. Such public clashes between the highest ranks of the long-ruling family are unheard of, and political instability in Jordan raises concerns throughout the region. The U.S. and several Gulf nations expressed solidarity for Jordan’s King Abdullah Sunday. None of the leaders in the region “would like to see havoc hitting any regime,” Labib Kamhawi, a Jordanian political analyst told the Associated Press. “It could be contagious.”
