The same Hamas that is stealing the aid supplies. Ignorant protesters, brainwashed by so-called professors and infiltrated by outside agitators should grow up, inform themselves and get on with justifying the huge amount apparently wasted on their so-called education.

Yet they have also absorbed a million Syrian refugees too. They try their best to care for these people. Their resources are very limited.
      In addition, remember Black September? After Arafat tried to take over the Jordanian government, a civil war resulted. Jordanians are leery of that ever happening again.
      Finally, native Jordanians are a Bedouin people, different ethnically and culturally from the urban/agricultural Palestinians. Already they fear being outnumbered in their own country. If Americans can fear illegal aliens from South America and Europeans fear being deluged by African and Syrian refugees, when these pose no danger of outnumbering the natives, surely one can understand the Jordanians, who face that possibility.

    I was privileged to have been given a University Education at Wits Uni South Africa. And although I borrowed the money to do so, it took me a very long time as a High School Teacher to pay it all back. These "students" are nothing more than a shocking disappointment to an academy of serious learning (maybe they are causing mayhem because most of them don't possess the real ability or brain power to achieve anything at University.) I think it is all about money which also keeps these Institutions afloat and maybe, that is why the powers-that-be which run them, are too cowardly to take the drastic action which is needed ASAP.
