TT....waiting on your Jordan plan.

I'm not sure what you're failing to grasp .

Let me refresh your memory. You got after several posters to say what their plan would be for the situation in Iraq. I made some suggestions and you acknowledged that. But I asked you several times what you would be doing now in Jordan and a plan if the insurgents invaded Jordan. You continue to ignore my question.

My memory is fine. You continue to ignore my repeated response. Not sure what you fail to grasp. I can't solve your problem , either. Your bringing your confusion into a totally unrelated thread, too.

TT...I asked you a very simple question about what we should be doing now and what we should do if ISIS goes into Jordan. Why is taht so hard for you to grasp? I answered your question abut suggestion for Iraq. Why is it a problem for you re. Jordan?

Bringing confusion into an unrealted thread. I guess you have never done that huh?
