Jordan Fears Growing Shiite Influence
=====================================
The Associated Press - Nov 17, 2006
BAQAA CAMP, Jordan - A new wave of admiration for Hezbollah and an influx of
thousands of Iraqi Shiite refugees has caused fears this staunch U.S. ally
could face growing Shiite and perhaps Iranian influence.
Sunni Muslim clerics and Jordanian officials have expressed worry that
support for Hezbollah high since the Shiite group's war with Israel could
encourage Jordanians, who are overwhelmingly Sunni, to convert to the Shiite
branch of Islam.
The officials worry that could boost support for Iran, whose influence is
considered a threat to Sunni-dominated governments like Jordan's throughout
the Middle East. Such fears have existed in Jordan ever since the war in
neighboring Iraq took a sectarian slant, with Sunnis and Shiites engaged in
reprisal killings that some say veer toward outright civil war.
