Israel and Jordan have signed a peace treaty ending 46 years of war.
Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin and King Hussein of Jordan formally made peace at a ceremony in desert area of Wadi Araba on the Israeli-Jordanian border.

US President Bill Clinton was a witness to the treaty also watched by 5,000 guests and relayed to the world on TV.

Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat was conspicuous by his absence - he had not been invited.


This is our gift to our peoples and the generations to come

King Hussein of Jordan

Jordan is now the second Arab state to establish close relations with Israel since Egypt made peace in 1979....
