AMMAN — The United States plans to deploy 200 troops in Jordan because of "the deteriorating situation" in war-torn Syria, Information Minister Mohammad Momani said on Wednesday.
"The deployment of the troops is part of US-Jordanian military cooperation to boost the Jordanian armed forces in light of the deteriorating situation in Syria," Momani told AFP.

I don't know what our purpose would be to put troops on the ground in Jordon?? What are we going to try to do? Stop Syrian refugees from crossing the border?

Is this just the beginning of the deployment? All has been quiet for a minute on the Syrian news front. What do you think ATS?
