There's always an "If" when dealing with the various political forces in the middle east.
We aren't dealing EU or Canada.
None of the countries or groups there except perhaps Jordan have clean hands when it comes to political prisoners. And I question even Jordan sometimes.
Edit. Typing too fast on the phone, "East" didn't make it.
