How important was it for Jordan to keep Jews from the Western Wall is perhaps a long question.
The short answer is here:
Instead of fulfilling their obligations as per the Armistice Agreements of 1949, Article VIII, 2, to provide
free access to the Holy Places and cultural institutions and use of the cemetery on the Mount of Olives
and thereby benefiting their own citizens, Jordan preferred to be anti-Jewish.
