The State Department reports that “In Jordan converts from Islam may be denied their civil rights if any member of society files an apostasy complaint against them.”
Up on the Hill, the Congressional research service reports: “U.S. military assistance is primarily directed toward upgrading Jordan’s air force, as recent purchases include upgrades to U.S.-made F-16 fighters, air-to-air missiles, and radar systems. FMF grants also provide financing for Jordan’s purchase of U.S. Blackhawk helicopters in order to enhance Jordan’s border monitoring and counter-terror capability.”
Why are we arming a country that imposes legal sanctions on converts from Islam?
