    Or they just don’t want to get dragged into a larger conflict. “Jordan? Nah, nah, nah, it ain’t LIKE that… that’s SYRIA!”

      This makes more sense, considering what a hotbed that entire region is. But wouldn’t this cause issues if Syria later claims that the base is actually on their land and redraes borders or something?
