Jordan has provided incredible, but very quiet support to us during the war in Iraq.

I get the feeliing that Abdullah (and Jordan) are trying to be the reasonable Arab factor
in this chapter of the WOT.

Not to say Abdullah has been on the side of the angels in every case, but he's closer than
even some of the leaders of "Old Europe".

In case lurkers don't know, Abdullah gave a personal guided tour of Jordan for
Peter Greenburg (aka "The Travel Detective on NBC) on The Tavel Channel.
Greenberg says that even he (as a Jew) feels safe touring Jordan and he even
recommends flying Royal Jordanian Airlines to Amman as an alternative to other
landing sites in the Middle East.

I am not sure of the reasons, but I know for a fact that they did provide some valid early war accomadations.
