How Jordan Treats Syrians at the Airport

This story is interesting, but I was having a hard time following the backstory. He was in Jordan temporarily, but hasn't been in Syria in 3 years? If so where was he? Just trying to understand context.

There's a lot of stories of people being treated without rights in airports (even rich white European males get the treatment sometimes). It's honestly really scary.

Jordan is drowning in refugees and acutely running out of water.

They have over 100,000 Syrian refugees, 750,000 Iraqi refugees and 1.9 million Palestinian refugees. That's a lot for small country of six million people.

It's easy to criticize Jordanians, but they have their hands full and are risking the stability of their country. If other countries would start taking more refugees from Syria and Iraq (like the coalition that toppled Saddam) that would be nice.
