#1 Jordan has a long standing beef with Syria, who intervened with some armor during the attempted Paleo revolt in the 1970's (?). The Jordanians kicked their ass, as I recall.

#2 Far from the jordanians kicking any ass, i seem to recall the Syrians backed down when Israel threatened to intervene on the side of the Jordanians. And it was in 1970. (that was when the PLO left to Beirut then in 1982 left Beirut to Tunis)
