iStockphoto/Thinkstock(NEW YORK) — U.S forces are sending a message to the Syrian regime by conducting training exercises across the border in Jordan. ABC’s Chief Global Affairs Correspondent Martha Raddatz is there where concern is spreading.
Jordan — America’s key ally in the region — is worried that the war in Syria will spill over its borders. The royal family is asking the U.S. to leave additional fighter jets and a patriot missile battery behind when the exercise ends.
