My country (Jordan) has long enjoyed the reputation of a key American ally in the region. But let's not delude ourselves. This no argument to stay absolutely calm and exclude American scenario of "Arab spring" realized in here!
Look how it was with Turkey, also the closest American regional ally. Americans didn't bother a bit to start its forceful democratization.
Now, here in Jordan there have been military exercises involving 19 countries which ended 20 June and for some vague reason more than 1000 American well armed military servicemen have been left here! Add here missile Patriot complexes and number of F-16 jets. What's the idea, I wonder?
Obama has declared that suspicious boost of American presence here is necessary to defend Jordan. Does he mean defense from Syria? Bunch of lies, it is!
And how about "protesting communities" for Jordan (and Saudi Arabia btw) formed in Twitter? Are they due to tensions in Syria as well? Far as I remember similar communities were formed before "Arab spring" and the events in Turkey we are witnessing now!
