I would back Churchill. The Jordanians are much more stable (in relative terms of course) than the Al Saud family in Arabia. The Wahabi extract of Islam that is practiced on the peninsula is rather archaic.

Possibly. Then again, we'd be looking back over 80+ years of history. Who's to say that the Jordanians wouldn't have been similarly corrupted by oil wealth and its perks?
