Well, actually, we do owe the runt King of Jordan a few favors. He helped us immensely in getting to Saddam and putting up with Iraqi refugees just to note an example of his recent helpfulness. Now he has a huge problem with Syrian refugees and Basher has been trying to kill them on their way to Jordan. So far the plan as I can read it is more to help Jordan defend itself than to beat Basher’s teeth in——yeah, it’s not our fight but we do the little guy for past help.
Point well taken. Not enough for our involvement in my opinion but something that had slipped my mind nonetheless.
