Hamas chief Khaled Meshal made his first official visit to Jordan on Sunday since the kingdom expelled him more than a decade ago. After talks with King Abdullah, Meshal insisted that Jordan will not be a substitute homeland for the Palestinians. Meshal also blasted Israel for trying to make Jordan the substitute Palestinian state. Meshal was accompanied by Qatar's Crown Prince Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad al-Thani. The visit was planned before an uprising erupted in Syria, where Hamas has had its main headquarters outside the Gaza Strip.
