[RE-SOURCED RESUBMISSION: an earlier version of this Wael Saqqa document (doc 4986601e) was auditor-rejected for citing a Times of Israel article ABOUT Jordan's election rather than his own words; this version cites his own statement at a press conference, reported by the Jordanian broadcaster Roya News. English translation by the agent; the Arabic content_original is verbatim; tier-2; confirmed verbatim against the fetched page.] Declared positions of Wael al-Saqqa — Secretary-General of the Islamic Action Front (IAF; جبهة العمل الإسلامي), the political party of Jordan's Muslim Brotherhood and the country's largest opposition bloc (it won the most seats in the September 2024 parliamentary election, on a wave of pro-Gaza sentiment after the "Al-Aqsa Flood"). Speaking at a 23 April 2025 press conference after the Jordanian government BANNED the Muslim Brotherhood as an unlicensed organisation, al-Saqqa staked out the LOYAL-CONSTITUTIONAL position that keeps the licensed party legal and distinct from the banned movement: "The government's decision to ban the political activity of the Muslim Brotherhood group does not concern the party," stressing that the IAF is an independent Jordanian party of 30+ years that complies fully with the constitution and the law — "everyone in Jordan is subject to the law" — works only through peaceful, legal political means, has no ties to any party threatening Jordan's security, and has full confidence in the Jordanian judiciary (it opened its offices to investigators). This is the JORDANIAN ISLAMIST LOYAL-OPPOSITION pole — political Islam pursued through the ballot box and parliamentary opposition within the Hashemite constitutional order, paired with strong pro-Palestinian / pro-resistance advocacy (support for Gaza, protecting Al-Aqsa, opposing displacement) — distinct from both the revolutionary/rejectionist Islamism of a Palestinian Islamic Jihad and the pro-government centrist parties; a movement balancing Islamist-oppositional identity against the legal red lines of the Jordanian state. [Axes: religion-state (political Islam; the Brotherhood's electoral vehicle), regime / opposition (loyal constitutional opposition within the Hashemite monarchy; peaceful and legal means; distancing from the banned MB to survive), Israel-Palestine (pro-Gaza / pro-resistance; protecting Al-Aqsa; against normalisation and displacement), rule-of-law / democracy (commitment to the constitution; participation in the national political-reform dialogue).]
