      They tried to burn down the embassy last month, a couple militia groups moving through Jordan to attack Israel, etc.

      TBH I understand and applaud Jordan officials for trying to reduce harm, as much as it pains me to say it.

        Jordan is like the sensible cousin.

        They show up to the wedding, have a good time.

          Not sure it’s relevant but the Jordanian king is also a Star Trek fan. He was in an episode. My point is he’s a little more modem than some of the previous leaders. I know his wife has ruffled some feathers as well.
