Jordan

[Pop. 4,561,147 Muslim 96% Arabic]

"The people of Jordan join the people of the United States in our absolute condemnation of the terrorist aggression against your nation. Our hearts reach out the victims and their families, and we honor the selfless men and women who have risked their lives to aid the injured and suffering.
Be assured that the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan, its leaders and people stand with you against the perpetrators of these terrorist atrocities. We denounce the violence and hatred they represent. Together, Jordan and the United States have worked for a better world. Together, we will work to ensure that the enemies of peace and freedom do not prevail."

From the official letter of King Abdullah II of Jordan to President Bush http://www.jordanembassyus.org/hmka_letter09122001.htm as presented on the Jordanian Embassy website http://www.jordanembassyus.org/new/index.shtml
