http://uk.news.yahoo.com/020830/80/d8lmf.html Jordan flouted strongly anti-U.S. sentiment over Washington's support of Israel and went further than other moderate Arab states in its public support of Bush's "war on terror" and the military campaign against Afghanistan. Jordan has been rewarded by a Free Trade Agreement and increased U.S. aid. The reward came with the biggest jump in years in a hefty military and economic aid package that will almost double economic aid to $250 million (161 million pounds) in 2003. That does not include considerable secret aid assistance to the country's army, trained and equipped by the United States. - - - - Humans have a wonder instinct about things.
