BirgitMarie3: I know we all love royal weddings (myself included) but with Iman’s wedding and the upcoming one of Hussein I do feel I need to remind y’all that criticising the king will send you to jail in Jordan. Please stop romanticising them. They’re very very corrupt, as well.

zhillan_arf: .....you know, I actually *don't* know any Israeli diplomatic or political mastermind that can serve as a patron saint on the likes of Castlereagh, Metternich, Marshall, or King Hussein. (I also know not any patron saints of EU integration, who are severely underappreciated)

Ali_reports: in Jordan. I think that king Hussein’s fateful decision to remove Glubb Pasha had a direct impact on Jordan losing the 1967 war and with it Jerusalem and the West Bank that Jordan had annexed after the 1948 Arab-Israeli war.

Ali_reports: Jordan celebrates today the 67th anniversary of the “Arabization” of Jordan army. In 1956 the late king Hussein fired British Gen. John Bagot Glubb,“Glubb Pasha” as the commanding General of Jordan army and other British officers. What I would say here might be very unpopular

gnuseibeh: I am reminded by the late King Hussein who visited Israel after a Jordanian soldier killed Israeli children in 1997. He sat on the floor with the mourning Israeli family. Hussein disagreed politically with Israel but was a human leader. One wonders what the PAs thugs are thinking
