I made a mistake towards the end of this video regarding the invasion of Jordan by Syria. I say it was done by Hafez al Assad but it is actually a key moment in the rise of Hafez al Assad when he refused to provide air cover to the actual culprit, which helped allow him to take control within Syria. I'll change it in the combined episode. My apologies. My web remains too small.
