Hundreds of Jordanian politicians, lawyers, and public figures have signed an open letter calling for the withdrawal of US military forces from Jordan, according to a report. The New York Times described the move as a rare public challenge to a government that typically suppresses such demands.
Hundreds of Jordanian politicians, lawyers, and public figures have signed an open letter calling for the withdrawal of US military forces from Jordan, according to a report. The New York Times described the move as a rare public challenge to a government that typically suppresses such demands.
A similar petition by hundreds of Jordanian public and religious figures was reported by The Zioneer on July 29, which also called for the expulsion of US forces and accused Israel of genocide. The new letter broadens the coalition to include political and legal professionals.
Iran has repeatedly called on Jordan to expel US forces, and the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps has urged Jordanians to push American troops out, as The Zioneer has reported. The Hashemite Kingdom hosts US military personnel and is a key regional security partner, but faces domestic pressure from pro-Iranian factions. The Jordanian government has not yet commented on the latest letter.
