Another casualty of the war in Syria is the neighborhood itself. There are more Syrian children going to primary schools in Lebanon than Lebanese children. Our friends in Lebanon are being overrun by Syrian refugees because of the HellonEarth nature of Syria. But one of our best allies in the entire world is the King of Jordan. Let me tell you what he has experienced as a result of us as a nation allowing Syria to fall completely apart. This was yesterday: The leader of a key U.S. ally in the Middle East warned Tuesday that his country [Jordan] is so packed with Syrian refugees. many with ties to the Islamic State terror group. that his nation has reached a "boiling point." Sooner or later. I think. the dam is going to burst. The bottom line is I have been saying this for 2 years now. along with Senator MCCAIN: If you dont end this war in Syria. one of the victims is going to be the King of Jordan.
