Jordan's parliament passed a motion that calls Israel has violated the peace treaty between the two countries and demanded the Israeli ambassador in Amman expelled . The motion is supported most of Jordan's lower house of Parliament was made a day after Israel began its debate session of Parliament to impose Israeli sovereignty over the Al Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem .

The parliamentary vote of no binding legal force Jordan government should run . However , Attieh threatened to push the no-confidence motion against the government if no action whatsoever over the developments in the Israeli Parliament ( Knesset ) is.
This motion was made a day after Jordan's 47 members of Parliament signed a motion urging the Government of Jordan, another freeze a peace deal with Israel .
The base of this problem is a step to start a session of the Knesset debate on the status of Al Aqsa Mosque compound in Jerusalem , Tuesday night . The debate was initiated by right-wing members of parliament to discuss the demands that the Government of Israel to end the prohibition for Jews to pray at the Al Aqsa compound .
During this time , the Israeli government forbids Jews to enter Al Aqsa Mosque compound to avoid the outbreak of open conflict with Muslims . However , hard-line Jews , who thought the location was also their sacred places , demanding the right to pray in the compound .
Moshe Feiglin , a Knesset member from the Likud - party Regulation Minister Benjamin Netanyahu , calling the Israeli fear is a form of discrimination against Jews .
The debate session ended without a vote or decision whatsoever . However , a direct backlash came from Palestine and Jordan .
Strong reaction
Tuesday morning , clashes broke out in the Al -Aqsa compound between Israeli police and Palestinian demonstrators protesting dozens of plans that debate . A total of 15 protesters wounded by Israeli police shot rubber bullets , while three protesters were arrested .
Head of the Palestinian diplomatic mission in the Headquarters of the United Nations , Feda Abdelhady - Nasser , immediately sent a letter of protest to the Security Council , General Assembly and the Secretary General of the United Nations .
Abdelhady - Nasser urged the UN Security Council to pay serious attention to the " incitement , provocation , and Israeli aggression done intentionally to provoke sensitivity Palestinians , Arabs , and Muslims and could trigger a broad impact and highly dangerous " this .
Al Aqsa Mosque compound , which is the third holiest site for Muslims , became the central tension in the history of the Arab - Israeli conflict . Israel captured the Old City area of Jerusalem from Jordan in the 1967 Six Day War and has since occupied the site where the Al Aqsa Mosque compound is located . This occupation was never recognized internationally .
In the Jordan - Israel peace treaty in 1994, Jordan received the right to maintain and manage all sites sacred place of Muslims in the Jerusalem area . Debate in the Knesset was seen as early attempts to deny the peace treaty and impose Israeli sovereignty over the Al Aqsa compound .
