Why is it impossible? Jordan has traditionally helped Israel and the two have always been friends.
"King Hussein flew to Israel and warned Israel before the surprise attack by Egypt/Syria in 1973..............In 1994, Hussein concluded negotiations to end the official state of war with Israel resulting in the IsraelJordan Treaty of Peace which he had begun negotiating in secret with the Israelis in the 1960s. Between 19631994 he had held at least 55 secret meetings with leading Israelis including at least seven prime and foreign ministers.[13]
Due to the close relationship forged with Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin during the negotiations of the treaty, Hussein was invited to give a speech during Rabin's funeral."
Of course, there would be public denials, so as not to agitate the palestinian arab refugees who would revolt against the King.
Hashemites are traditionally more moderate of the Arab world. King Faisal I of Iraq was a Zionist. His quote:
"The Arabs, especially the educated among us, look with the deepest sympathy on the Zionist movement. Our deputation here in Paris is fully acquainted with the proposals submitted yesterday by the Zionist Organization to the Peace Conference, and we regard them as moderate and proper."[13]
Thanks for these sources.
