Remember, what matters most is that we do not lose Jordan to the Islamists. Jordan is friendly to Israel; to lose them to radical Islam will be to hem Israel in completely by nations sworn to destroy them.
Sad to say, those nations will be aided and abetted by leftists in the US such as Code Pink and (name "liberal", "progressive" "anti-war" faction here)..

But consider this update:
"Last Wednesday, in the hours after a horrific chemical attack east of Damascus, an official at the Syrian Ministry of Defense exchanged panicked phone calls with a leader of a chemical weapons unit, demanding answers for a nerve agent strike that killed more than 1,000 people. Those conversations were overheard by U.S. intelligence services, The Cable has learned. And that is the major reason why American officials now say they're certain that the attacks were the work of the Bashar al-Assad regime -- and why the U.S. military is likely to attack that regime in a matter of days."
