Jordan on Wednesday outlawed and confiscated assets of the Muslim Brotherhood, a Hamas ally and Jordan’s largest opposition group, members of which were linked by authorities to a yearslong sabotage plot against the Hashemite Kingdom.
Jordanian Interior Minister Mazen Fraya said all Muslim Brotherhood activities would be banned in the country and anyone promoting the group’s ideology would be held accountable by law. The ban includes publishing anything by the group and closure and confiscation of all its offices and property, he added.
Fraya said Muslim Brotherhood members had planned attacks on security targets and sensitive locations in the kingdom, aiming to destabilize the country, but did not disclose what these targets were.
The history:
As is wont to happen the fame and gilt went to Palestinian heads, and before you know it they're calling for the overthrow of the Jordanian royal family. Their hosts1.
When they figured out that the rest of Arabia — romantics though they were — didn't quite cotton to this turfing off of the Jordanian king (and his family), they initially crawfished on that idea, but — as Palestinians throughout recent history have a habit of doing — they became a massive pain-in-the-ass to their Jordanian hosts. They ignored laws, declared themselves to be "countries inside of a country", and started occupying — forcefully — Jordanian cities.
To include Amman, the capital city of Jordan and the seat of Jordanian King Hussein2.
With "We've had it with these people" following.
All those other countries know what happens when they let a bunch of these people in, and they don't want it. I suspect they also don't want the bad publicity with western idiots moaning and demanding Action! when they have to whack a whole bunch of said people for trying to take over.

So no, they don't want to let them in in the first place, and I doubt that'll change. Which makes me wonder if the various governments aren't looking at happenings in Europe and Britain, and some universities and cities here, and wondering "What the hell is wrong with these people, don't they know history? Don't they see what these bastards and their useful idiots are doing, and want to do?"
