SIPDIS
FOR MNF IRAQ CG CASEY FROM CHARGE DAVID HALE
E.O. 12958: N/A
TAGS: PREL MOPS IZ JO
SUBJECT: MESSAGE FOR GENERAL CASEY
King Abdullah continues to value his dialogue with U.S.
military leaders. As we maintain and bolster Jordanian
support for U.S. goals in Iraq, and deepen the King,s
understanding of our own appreciation of the military and
security situation there, these contacts are invaluable.
Should you find the time to stop in Amman, perhaps during a
theater transit, your visit would be very useful and much
appreciated by the King. We could make the most of it by
focusing on a meeting with him and dispensing with
time-wasting protocol events. A visit just after the
January 30 election would be ideal, but Embassy Amman and the
Jordanians would welcome you whenever you can spare the time.
BAGHDAD MINIMIZE CONSIDERED.
