31. #26 Tell it to Assad
Raphael ,   Netanya   (02.15.11)
Greater Syria includes Lebanon, Jordan, Palestine, Israel and Iskenderun.
32. Palestinians and Jordinians are Brothers for long time
Sam ,   Palestine   (02.15.11)
33. staying hot
daniel ,   israel   (02.15.11)
requires a lot of money, even from taxpayers
34. To Tahl#23. GOOD questions.
Maansingh ,   The Netherlands   (02.15.11)
GOOD questions, Tahl. I think #21 will remain UNABLE to answer those questions -- for all eternity. And they (i.e. people with the mentality of #21) think they have the right to bring into question the existence of the Jewish State of Israel. I am amazed at the audacity they (i.e. people with dishonest mentality like #21) show in criticizing the existence of the Jewish State of Israel. The opponents of the Jewish State of Israel are showing that they have NO logic in their arguments. No logic means they have VERY little brain substance.
35. Most Reports have her as a spoiled Brat
Mark from Georgia ,   USA   (02.15.11)
There have been many stories of how she abuses her servants (slaves). So now we see she steals land for her family, why am I not surprised. She is a good looking fox though. She has been the pretty face supporting the Pals in the disputed territories. Often used by the King for MSM in the Western Media. But the days of the monarch may be over. King Hussein knew how walk that fine line, and with one of the best and most disciplined armies in the region, King Hussein knew how to keep his army loyal to him. We'll see if his son has the same talent? After all the Kings security depends on the armies loyalty. Plus remember the majority population in Jordan is the Arabs who call themselves Pals. So I don't think the Hashemite army would have a problem if they had to open fire on these Arabs. They're not of his clan. So there is a completely different dynamic at play here. The Egyptian army did not want to shoot fellow Egyptians. In this case, the people are not true Jordanians in the Kings mind or the armies. Plus once before they revolted and King Hussein didn't hesitate using force. At the end of the day, it could play out with Jordan as the new Palestine, with Israel keeping whatever part of the West Bank they want. With Gaza going back to Egypt.
36. Ranias removal
olavi ,   espoo, finland   (02.15.11)
In quite near future it is propable that Rania and his family has to move from Jordan to UK. Better collect the furniture and send them ahead.
37. 35 - So now we see she steals land for her family
split ,   US   (02.15.11)
Have a shrotage of your own kind stealing land from rightful owners?,...
38. ??? It makes one wonder ???
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (02.15.11)
If the pleasure that Rania gave Abdullah is worth all the aggravation he's having now, including the very possible loss of his artificial throne
39. New York is Israel if Jordan is Palestine
Basil ,   Morgantown   (02.15.11)
Palestine historically was the land west of the river and a part of the land east of the river. It was not Jordan, not according to the Romans, Turks, Greeks, British, or Arabs, but for some Israelis who want to rewrite the Jewish religion through Zionist nationalism and rewrite history they will say that Jordan is Palestine. Judaism is not Zionism, and Palestine is not Jordan, and a two state solution or understanding between the sons of Abraham is Jewish liberation.
40. #2 - As Israeli, I got better welcome in Gulf than "Pals"
William ,   Israel   (02.15.11)
I was welcomed warmly in the Gulf when I was there on business, and without solicitation they cursed "Palestinians" up and down as their "backwards cousins".
41. #11 - it was a political move to solidify his rule
William ,   Israel   (02.15.11)
by marrying a "Palestinian" who is Christian, he now covered both Hashemite (Bedouin) and "Palestinian", Muslim and Christian. That's how they do it in autocratic tribal Arab regimes.
42. #39 - has nothing to do with Zionism
William ,   Israel   (02.15.11)
It was declared this way by the British through the Balfour Declaration in 1922. The future Israel would be a nation-State of the Jews from the Jordan river Westerward, with the Eastern side of the Jordanian river being a State for the Arabs. The the British broke their own agreement and gave eastern Jordan to the Hashemites who used to live in Mecca but the Brits gave Mecca to the House of Saud and needed to put the Hashemites somewhere. So you see this has nothing to do with Zionism or as you claim "historical revisionism". The claim that Jordan = Palestine (as the term used today - nation-State for Palestinian people) is historically correct. If you want to get more technical, the land claimed as "Palestine" today was never historically as such. The real "Palestine" is a province in northern Syria during the time of the Romans and they falsely re-named the Israel-region in order to add insult to injury. Up to the 1930s, Arab intellectuals vocally disagreed with calling the area Palestine because of this error and instead preferred the term "Levant" and "Southern Syria". Since you're on the 'net I assume you can read. Why don't you crack open a history book and can of Mountain Dew there in Morgantown and educate yourself.
43. 40 - without solicitation they cursed "Palestinians
split ,   US   (02.15.11)
They know that they're the original Hebrew and converts according to Prof. Sand and others,...
44. #32 - of course you are brothers....
William ,   Israel   (02.15.11)
because you all come from the same Arab parents. No difference between Jordanians, "Palestinians" Syrians, Egyptians, and Saudis. All the same genetic makeup, cultural mannerisms, and historical narrative. You are not unique as you claim.
45. #26 - when you show us a deed for the land
William ,   Israel   (02.15.11)
you can make a claim. Right now, you haven't autonomous rule for over 700 years, and no private land ownership for about as long. Claiming the land is your's, when you didn't own it, never ruled it, and in the case of the majority of so-called "Palestinians" haven't been there before the 1930s, is simply false - on so many historical, moral, and legal bases.
46. Let's get one basic fact straight
BEN JABO ,   ISRAEL   (02.16.11)
Jordan itself, was stolen from the land destined for a Jewish State, thanks to the thievery of the British, who gave it to Emir Abdullah, as a reward for his breaking not breaking their hump during World War One Rania is a much smaller crook than Britain
47. Rania
just had it ,   USA   (02.16.11)
Evil comes with all shapes and forms if evil did not look good there will be NO SIN. She is Evil she will take the Kingdom Down. self serving Evil.
48. collaborator
SAMI AL OBIADAT ,   AMMAN   (03.16.11)
YOU AND SHAROON HAVE THE SAME POINT OF VIEW YOU WANT JORDAN TO BE NAMED PALASTINE WHILE YOU DONT CARE ABOUT PALESTINE , ALSO IT IS NOT SUITABLE TO SPEAKE THESE POISEN WORDS IN ISRAEALI PAGE , I AM SURE THAT YOU ARE COLLABORATER LIKE MANY OF YOUR COLLEAGUES , jordan is jordan , and when we talk about a corrupt palestinine origin man or woman ( and there is acorrupt jordanian ) the subject is deviated to a racesist issue
49. ABBAS CITIZENSHIP
mike Glenn ,   San Antonio TX   (04.08.11)
BELIEVE ME SHE WON'T HAVE THIS POWER FOR LONG. SHE AND THE KING TO BE WILL BE LOOKING FOR A SHELTER AND A PLACE TO FLEE BEFORE THE END OF THE YEAR:))
50. Zionism
(07.14.11)
If your speaking abt the king of Jordan he didn't marry a christian, I mean I can't stand the guy, but i think its hilarious that a Zionist "because i do not want to use the word Jew since there are peace full ones" would speak about unfair regimes, just because israel calls themselves a democracy doesn't mean you guys actually act like one since you are the most violent democracy for sure that has ever existed.
51. She is and a lot more
(07.14.11)
the Jordanians aren't from the "Kings" clan either, and we probably can't stand him just as much as the Palestinians, but unfortunately the army is brain washed, there are Jordanians and people who's origin is Palestinian in the army, in addition the King himself is not Jordanian he's originally Saudi and British, and as a Jordanain I consider Palestinians that have our citizenship more Jordanian than the King, and by a whole lot, he just cares about his inner circle of people, who live the way they do on the account of Jordanian citizens, anyone who tell's u other wise is incorrect and might as well be blind
52. Grow up, and stop trying to make urself feel better
(07.14.11)
No offence but your retarded, just because a foreign force says something is what it is it does not make that way, as far as your King goes and the rest of your royal family they force themselves on the people of Jordan, as far as Jordan being called Palestine well i guess the only correct thing to do now is call Jordan and the rest of the northern arab countries Blad Alsham, obviously your either a racist Palestinian or an Israeli agent trying to instigate, you really need to grow up.
53. No its not
(07.14.11)
No disrespect to your "God given rights" but the lands of Jordan Palestine etc, don't belong to a people of one religion, i'm sure that some of these lands do belong to some Arab Jews for instance, but I find it highly unlikely that European Jews ever had any land here by inheritances, your obviously a person that sits and uses a religion that does not really exist "and what I mean true Judaism has been changed" into a violent belief, that supports a superiority of one kind of people over another, which sorry to break it to u God does not condone at all. Also if we where to run things by historical context it wld probably be a never ending conflict "clearly from the state of Palestine' and since everyone has there own version of it, honestly I personally think the Holy Lands should be a free zone with settlers of bot Isralei and palestanian people the ones born there, and the ones that were kicked out, and u'd have some documentation to say ur a resident of that area, but u shouldn't be allowed to hold a different passport since its obviously an area quite on demand, and if u want to be a resident u shldn't be able to be a citizen of another area, otherwise i guarantee u, Israel is not going to win neither are the Palestinians
54. I'm so shallow
Arnold ,   Montreal-Canada   (05.27.13)
I could not get interested in reading the article. I was too taken aback at how gorgeous she is.
