Between a Zionist and a Hashemite monarch I berlueve the Zionist.  " rdan’s King Abdullah on Tuesday issued a rare statement of correction to an interview with him by the Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg published Monday, claiming the article contained many “fallacies” and that his words “were taken out of their correct context.”

The comments, published on the king’s personal Facebook page but attributed to “a knowledgeable source in the Royal Court,” seemed to indicate perturbation with derogatory comments directed by the king to east Jordanian tribal leaders he was on his way to meet in the impoverished southern city of Karak last fall.".    Personally, I liked the interview.  The man is insisting on digging his own grave with his own hands.  Let him.
