“A lot of them are well-read, thoughtful young individuals who know exactly what they’re protesting. They are protesting for justice.”

she needs to shut her mouth and stay in her place.

also why doesn’t she cover her head?

by Anonymousreply 1May 6, 2024 9:16 AM

She's Palestinian, it's no surprise that she has a different view from the average American.

The protestors don't know why they're protesting. They do so to get woke points.

The only credentials this woman has is she's fucking the right person (the king). Who cares what she thinks. Has Jordan taken in any Gazan refugees? Yeah, thought so.

You do realize that Jordan will not allow the "refugees" into your country Rania.

None of the Arab states are willing to take in or even help their Palestinian cousins.

For reasons well known to all parties.

They're protesting against US support of Israel, r3, said support being what sustains Israel in its ethnic cleansing campaign.

Let’s send all those college protesters to help on the frontlines.

R4, she is a Palestinian refugee herself, but Jordan shouldn't take any Gazan refugees in, in fact, no one should - trying to create refugees is just a tactic by Israel to remove all the Palestinians from Gaza so that Israel can then annex it. The Gazans should all stay exactly where they are in Gaza and Israel should stop attacking citizens en masse.

by Anonymousreply 8May 6, 2024 11:49 AM

There shouldn't be a front line, r7. Israel should stop attacking civilians and creating a war situation.

by Anonymousreply 9May 6, 2024 11:49 AM

Pretty sure the Palestinians created the war situation, the invasion of Rafah is happening so they better get out of the way. In any war there are refugees. We all know why Jordan won't help.

I don't know why Jordan won't help, R10 -- I have very little knowledge of the ancient history and the complexities of the current situation. Some years ago, I tried to research the history, but everything I tried to read seemed to be strongly biased, one way or the other -- so I stopped trying.

Could you tell me more about it?

R11 - they have a tendency to try to overthrow the king:

In September 1970, the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) attempted to seize power from Jordan's King Hussein, and the Jordanian military forcefully confronted them. In response, the militant faction Black September was founded in 1971 to assassinate the King and seek revenge on the military. The name Black September commemorates the violent clash between Palestinians and Hashemites, which resulted in the expulsion or killing of thousands of Palestinians and the PLO's expulsion from Jordan. This conflict is also known as the Jordanian Civil War or Black September

She has to be the the apologist for her husband as Jordan helped in taking down the Iranian missiles. Like Saudi Arabia, they cannot be seen as TOO pro Israel.

She realises if America changes its foreign policy and cuts its monetary support to its Middle East "allies" off the back of these protests Jordan's in the firing line as well right? 95% of the reason America cares about the Levant is due to Israel.

There is always a Portia ready to humiliate Shylock for expecting what he was promised,

The world has never tolerated Jews fighting back. This was a bitter truth even in the 1940s.

Thanks, R12!

There's a significant Palestinian population living in Jordan. She knows exactly what she is doing. I don't think most people fully appreciate the balancing act the Muslim countries are engaged in right now because of Netanyahu's belligerence. Hamas is evil. But it's like a cancer they are intent on crushing so it doesn't spread. Netanyahu is making everything very difficult. He needs to go.

Same old boring ass lies.

r8 why is that bad. Removal fixes the issue. if the two sides can't play nice then one of them needs to leave.

That's right, r21, Israel needs to leave Gaza and all the Palestinian territories. Thanks, at least, for admitting that your goal is expulsion of the Gazans from their land so that Israel can take it over and claim it as part of the Israeli state.

by Anonymousreply 23May 8, 2024 11:10 AM

fuck the "Gazans" and the terrorists they shelter.

Yes, r24, we know you want to kill them all.

Hamas has now, for the second time this week and by its own proud admission, bombed the major Rafah crossing. This will slow or block humanitarian assistance from entering. Freedom fighters, indeed.

[QUOTE]I don't know why Jordan won't help, [R10]

Well, the Palestinians assassinated current King Abdullah II's great grandfather and almost succeeded killing his father Hussein whose military medals deflected a bullet.

Trump scared the living daylights out of Abdullah by saying Jordan would get the West Bank under some cockamamie "peace plan" he had. Wherever Palestinians go, trouble in the form of their leadership follows.

I love how a pampered Palestinian Queen Rania got a thumbs up from her unchallenged and unrequited ignorance.

It should be a Datalounge Aria about the inherent victimhood or maybe danger she brought into the Hashemite Dynasty as even one of her forebearers tried to kill her husband's immediate paternal line.

Am I supposed to get angry at Muslims in the Middle East who support other Muslims in the Middle East? Or Jews who support Israel? I have nothing to do with Middle East, I have no power to change things, these ME wars have been going on all my life. I had no power to stop the Gulf War or the Iraq/Afghanistan War though I didn’t want them. We tried to protest for these wars and media ignored us.

But the media goes bonkers when it involves Israel.

Been here, done that.
