Visit Jordan Now and Support Sanity

I spoke with my good friends at the Jordan Tourism Bureau, just to wish them well. This board is one of the most professional and friendly in the world. Unfortunately with things in the ME going as there are currently I feel for the people of Jordan. Fear can be horrible thing to over come in travelers. For that reason I try to tell anyone I can about the wonderful visits I have made to Jordan. There truly are not many places I have visited where I have been exposed to such warm and friendly people, not to mention amazing sites!

Jordan is a very moderate Muslim country and King Abdullah II a very intelligent and wise ruler. The country’s position on terrorism is unmistakable; they fight it and abhor it. Jordan along with Egypt has treaties with Israel. Jordanians have a built in sense of honor and accommodation. If more countries followed Jordan’s policies the world would be a better place. I feel for them and what just may happen if travelers are guided by misconception and fear. This country deserves our support and I urge those who are looking for an amazing destination to go, I would in a flash. I look forward to returning! Posted by Picasa

Dear Kent,
As Jason Gaskell said about Bali in the story we just put up, "If travelers stay away, the terrorists win."
