Jordan enforcing smoking ban amidst public fury...











The story of Jordan is that of a country 
deeply committed to tobacco with one 
of the highest per capita smoking rates.
Jordan has cheap cigarettes; and not only 
is smoking a sign of manhood, but in some 
households, it is customary for minors to 
light the hookah for their parents' smoke.
The smoking ban, on the books since '08,
is only now being pressed into law in 2014.
ABC News reports on the public fury over
Jordan's enforcement of the smoking ban.
