Summary/Abstract |
Since its establishment in 1921, the Jordanian Hashemite regime has endured uprisings and coup attempts from Jordanians, Palestinians, and foreigners. Jordanian intelligence, which has played a significant role in maintaining the stability of the Hashemite kingdom, is considered one of the most effective intelligence agencies in the world. According to Los Angeles Times correspondent Ken Silverstein, it has surpassed Israel's Mossad as America's most effective allied counter-terrorism agency in the Middle East.
