Beloved king has passed away ,, H.E. King Hussein of Jordan,, I always called him a voice of reason in the middle east ,, trusted by both Israel and Arabs ,, stood independent from US and Soviet hemisphere of influence,, a Hesmite king of old lineage ,, he went to Sandhurst at age 16 ,, married a commoner an American daughter of an American Airlines executive,, queen Nouri , whom also became a respected and benevelent sister and and mother to all Jordanians ,,
I have visited Jordan several times ,, on business and pleasure ,, traversed that country from Israeli border to Aquaba ,, Amman was a city of openness and warm people ,, Petra was a site to behold as Greco - Romans carved out a sheer mountain to build a temple equal to 8th wonder if there was one ,,
I am happy to see people in Israel showed so much feeling of genuine love and respect for Hussein ,, I hope his memory by all parties across the border in the region will ignite another fire for peace and acceptance of all nations with mutual respect ,, Jews and non Jews ,, I say let there be Israel ,, let children of Moses grow their olive trees in the banks of river Jordan and let their children wave their hands across the river to all other children of Jordan , Palestine ,, Syria ,, children of Abrahim ,, ( I also say ,, give back the land to Arabs,, and give independence to Palestines , )
My prayer for people of Jordan and all the children of region ,, who after all came from same womb ,,,
I ask all our members to hold our hand in prayer ,, for a good journey for our friend Hussein ,, and peace in the region ,, |
