U.S. moving to resupply Jordan's military with munitions
2015-02-15
[Rooters UK] - The United States is readying plans to resupply Jordan with munitions in the coming weeks, possibly including precision-guided arms, expediting support for the kingdom as it expands its role in airstrikes against the Islamic State (IS), officials say.

The State Department and Pentagon declined comment on any future moves to assist Jordan with requests for weapons. But several U.S. officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said that planning was well underway to help replenish Jordan's supplies of ordnance.

U.S. efforts to expedite delivery of munitions and other weapons follow a vocal appeal from Jordan's King Abdullah to American lawmakers last week for greater U.S. support.

#2  Prolly safe to say in response to the threat of poten protractive or lingering West Coast ports shutdown.

Hopefully things will be resolved quickly lest my childhood dreams or visions come true, wid Jordan's King Abdullah + Country indeed fighting the ISIS to his Country's "Last Bean-n-Bullet" because the US or US-Allies/West can no longer resupply Jordan or Other [Israel?] in a timely or mil effective manner.

ADVANTAGE = ISIS + GLOBAL, NUCLEAR JIHAD.
