Jordan: Getting Things Straight · Global Voices
Haitham Sabbah

Rami Abdelrahman wonders, after Amman was bombed, that did not only show how vulnerable we are, but also how we need to get many things straight. Why do we stick our noses in our neighbours businesses? why do we have to take millions from the US, and probably as much from other countries to keep doing that, while it doesn't reflect anything on the average Jordanian's life? Was it only for the people not to say anything regards their opinion about our “foreign policy”? Why do we have to take fight for “moderate” islam against those fanatics who bombed our capital? What about poverty, corruption, underdevelopment in rural, civil and badia areas? How can you be interdependent if you are dependent?
