King Abdullah of Jordan has publicly criticised the United States and Israel over the fighting in Lebanon.
He told Jordanian newspapers he was enraged by the war, and that continued fighting only weakened the voice of Middle East moderates such as himself.
He argued Israel's attempt to destroy the militant Hezbollah group would not solve problems in the region.
He stressed the only way to achieve peace was to end the Israeli occupation of Arab lands.
