(NEWS) Jordan Unions Urge Boycott Of Cycling Event With Israel

"Jordan's trade unions called on Wednesday for a boycott of a cycling tour for environmental awareness, saying the event involving Jordan, Israel and the Palestinians was really a cover to normalise ties with the Jewish state.

The three-day event organised by Friends of the Earth Middle East (FoEME) is a 'torch-run' starting October 8 in Jordan, going on to Israel and finishing in the Palestinian territories.

'This association is working to impose normalisation with the Zionist enemy under cover of environmental activities,' Badi Rafaiyeh, head of a committee that opposes better ties with Israel, told AFP."
