Jordanians Protest Possible American Troop Deployment Near Syrian Border

AMMAN: About 300 Jordanians have demonstrated against the proposed deployment of 200 U.S. troops on their nation's border with Syria.

Some protesters warned that the small force could be just the beginning of a process that leads to U.S. involvement in Syria's civil war to secure its chemical weapons. Other demonstrators, backing the regime of Syrian President Bashar Assad, burned American flags.
