Really; when did Americans stop fearing Red China? North Korea is regarded with suspicion, yet they only exist because Red China maintains them.
I’ll never visit a Muslim country, but would expect less political BS from them than from Red China, Cuba, North Korea, etc..
I am similar but I did visit Jordan in 1996. I doubt I would today. Any visit puts money into the wrong hands and I buy enough stuff made in China and muslim lands as it is. If I had a choice I would always go for the non communist/muslim country.
I just couldn’t relax in those places; hatred for the West is deeply ingrained there (though Jordan officially is one of the more pro-Western places).
