[^2]\n\nRetired Jordanian Major General and strategic expert Mohamed Farghal told CNN Arabic that the repeated Iranian targeting of Jordan does not necessarily mean Jordan has become an Iranian 'target bank,' and that part of it may stem from 'confusion and despair' in Iranian decision-making. [^3]\n\nAyman Safadi warned that the West Bank is on the brink of explosion and called for the international community to intervene immediately against the government of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. [^4]\n\nFarghal said Iran's justification that it targets US presence does not explain all strikes, claiming that Iran has hit civilian targets unrelated to US presence and that its claim is inaccurate even in Gulf states.
