Jordan grapples with balancing act amid Middle East tensions
Amman faces pressure as war looms over Iraq while riots surge in Maan. Jordan maintains ties with the United States, receives 75 million dollars in annual military aid, and restricts protests to prevent anti American sentiment. The government stresses normal military cooperation with the US and avoids antagonizing Iraq or Arab states. Former Prime Minister Taher Masri calls Jordan's position delicate as violence and regional anger ripple through the capital.
