  • Jordan: Background and U.S
    Jordan: Background and U.S. Relations Jeremy M. Sharp Specialist in Middle Eastern Affairs May 3, 2012 Congressional Research Service 7-5700 www.crs.gov RL33546 CRS Report for Congress Prepared for Members and Committees of Congress Jordan: Background and U.S. Relations Summary This report provides an overview of Jordanian politics and current issues in U.S.-Jordanian relations. It provides a brief discussion of Jordan’s government and economy and of its cooperation in promoting Arab-Israeli peace and other U.S. policy objectives in the Middle East. Several issues in U.S.-Jordanian relations are likely to figure in decisions by Congress and the Administration on future aid to and cooperation with Jordan. These include the stability of the Jordanian regime (particularly in light of ongoing political change and/or unrest in several other countries in the region), the role of Jordan in the Arab-Israeli peace process, the possibility of U.S.-Jordanian nuclear energy cooperation, and U.S.-Jordanian military and intelligence cooperation. Although the United States and Jordan have never been linked by a formal treaty, they have cooperated on a number of regional and international issues over the years. The country’s small size and lack of major economic resources have made it dependent on aid from Western and friendly Arab sources. U.S. support, in particular, has helped Jordan address serious vulnerabilities, both internal and external. Jordan’s geographic position, wedged between Israel, Syria, Iraq, and Saudi Arabia, has made it vulnerable to the strategic designs of its more powerful neighbors, but has also given Jordan an important role as a buffer between these potential adversaries.

  • The Role of the Jordanian Army in Regional Stability: Its Role in the Arab Spring As Case Study (2011-2016)
    Dirasat, Human and Social Sciences, Volume 46, No. 2, Supplement 1, 2019 The Role of the Jordanian Army in Regional Stability: Its role in the Arab Spring as case study (2011-2016) Walid Khalid Abu-Dalbouh* ABSTRACT The Arab Spring has changed the political dynamics of the Middle East dramatically since late 2010. Starting from the revolution in Tunisia, subsequent revolutions and political disorder swiftly swept across the so called Arab region/ the Arab uprising. Jordan also witnessed strong waves of political movements demanding various forms of reforms. Despite political frustrations, the overall political scene in Jordan appeared much more stable and much less violent compared to other Arab countries. The state security apparatus kept the domestic political situation highly under controland the riot police (Darak forces) was very active to suppress small civil uprisings in different cities within the kingdom. The Jordanian army remained unused instrument in dealing with the political movements which took place since late 2010. Sincethere has been no significant role taken by the Jordanian army domestically. The question worth asking here is, whether and to what extent the Jordanian army has had a relevant role in dealing with overall social and political movements in the Middle East since the spark of the Arab Spring. The objective of this research accordingly is to assess the extent to which military power in general and the Jordanian army in specific is capable to deliver peace and stability. The paper argues that the Arab Spring has enhanced the external role of the Jordanian army in the region, in particular in Arab states which have confronted social unrest and civic violence since early 2011.

  • OE Threat Assessment: Jordan
    Dec 2012 OE Threat Assessment: Jordan TRADOC G-2 Intelligence Support Activity (TRISA) Complex Operational Environment and Threat Integration Directorate (CTID) [Type the author name] United States Army 6/1/2012 OE Threat Assessment: Jordan Introduction Perhaps the most significant historical event to affect Jordan in the past quarter-century is the 1994 peace treaty the late King Hussein signed with Israel, formally recognizing that country’s right to exist as a sovereign state. The occasion also went far toward healing a rift with the United States, which dated from to the First Gulf War in 1990, when Jordan supported Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait. Supporting Iraq in that conflict incidentally alienated Sunni Jordan from Shiite Iran, another major power in the region. Three years later, when Jordan made peace with Israel, the rift with Iran became permanent. Since that time, Jordan has been a stalwart regional ally of the Western powers, especially the United States. 2009 marked the sixtieth anniversary of diplomatic relations between the two countries. Shockwaves from the Arab Spring reached Jordan early in 2011. As a result, the current hereditary monarch, King Abdullah II, faces a number of domestic challenges. Foremost among them are lingering tensions related to the Israeli occupation of Palestine, a demand for greater democratization, if not elimination, of the Hashemite monarchy, and economic hardships caused by the interruption of fuel resources formerly furnished by Egypt. Although no known terrorist organizations operate in Jordan, the country’s greatest threat is that Islamic extremists may attempt to hijack legitimate popular demands for political, social, and economic reforms.
