Diaa Hadid of the Times goes to Jordan

Here what she is not telling in her article.  Leftists and progressives in Jordan also protested and complained about the changes especially because they were arranged in meetings with Zionists of the US Congress, and based on a speech by Queen youtube.  It is not only Islamists who objected, and it is not only about the substance of the changes.  Many complained that the regime basically plays with the curricula to further its interests and depending on its domestic alliances.  No regime has promoted Islamist kooks more than the Jordanian regime.  Read this critique by comrade Shakir Jarrar. 

The Queen of Jordan is desperate: she so clamors for attention--any attention from anywhere

So the Queen Youtube of Jordan has proposed a cartoon in response to Charlie Hebdo's mockery of Syrian refugees.  But her idea of the cartoon is so lame that it is even jarring and makes you cringe.  What cliche is that?  This woman and her husband, and despite a large number of advisers imported from US to guide them in PR and image improvement, have not one single original idea. They basically copy what is being written in mainstream media in the US about the Middle East and then regurgitate the materials to Western viewers in order to impress the West--and the silly West is impressed.  She has also been trying to get attention from Arabs (her dumb husband does not even go there: he never tries to get attention of Arabs because he knows it is a losing battle for him--he can impress Jon Stewart and German Chancellors but never a young Arab) to no avail.  I just wish she and her husband would just go away and keep quiet.  They have nothing to offer except following the command of the US ambassador in Jordan.

Freedoms in the "moderate" kingdom of Jordan

While Queen Youtube of Jordan was writing about press freedoms in the Arab world for Huffington post Qatari regime Arabi, a Jordan journalist was arrested for, among other things, defaming "a public official and a government agency".   I kid you not. Those are crimes in Jordan.

King PlayStation flying to Paris

King PlayStation is flying with Queen Youtube to Paris France to participate in a demonstration for freedom of expression. The King, it has to be said, has championed freedoms of expression but only when they are outside of his little kingdom.

It is official: queen Youtube of Jordan is now allowed to appear in public.

I bet you my toes that Queen Youtube does not know what dystopia mean before she read it in the piece prepeared for her

Jordanians are wondering where there King is, and there are a lot of rumors about his health.  Dissident Layth Shubaylat wrote an open letter to the prime minister about that.  Today, the Queen youtube returned from her long vacation and tried to feign concern for Gaza.

Queen YouTube has a new schtick: she is now queen Instagram

She would like you to know that she is"surprisingly" normal.  She really is and that she has been allowed to get out if her hiding place since the beginning of the Arab uprisings. 

Queen youtube is back, and she waxes philosphical (beware--it is very deep)

"Sometimes I feel that the situation is beginning to improve and is on track toward stability, then I see it regressing again. We are in a mode that is swinging between here and there." (thanks Basim)

Queen youtube: let them drink juice

" Queen YouTube.

"The king insists that he has handled these demonstrations with gentle diplomacy. Queen Rania, he says, suggested he take a lenient approach with the protesters. “I said to take the weapons away. I was coordinating with all the commanders about how the first demonstrations should be handled, and Rania said, ‘You know what you should do? Hand out water and juice to all the demonstrators—have the police hand them water.’ That was a good idea, and I called them and said, ‘Rania’s idea is to do this.’ And the police did it. That was the flavor of the demonstrations.” "" (thanks Ben)

Queen Youtube of Jordan

I checked yesterday.  The Queen of Jordan has not tweeted since October.  She will tweet again but she is in hiding now.  Jet sets of US and Europe miss her dearly but hopefully after the overthrow of her husband they will have plenty of time to catch up.  Can't wait.

The University of Chicago Press published a book by the person who vomited those words

"The women of the royal family in particular have sought to provide women in Jordan with public role models that project confidence and assertiveness. Princess Basma, sister of the late King Hussein, has been at the forefront of attempts to change legislation regarding “crimes of honor” (albeit unsuccessfully) and a women’s right to divorce. Internationally, the royal family has also worked to foster Jordan’s reputation as a liberal and forward–looking country. Queen Rania, for example, has appeared on Oprah and even has her own YouTube channel."  Can you imagine that this person who said those words published a book on Arab women by the University of Chicago. 

Let them

Jordanians are circulating this picture of Queen Youtube who has been absent.   (thanks Mohammad)

First lady of Egypt, so to speak

Look how disgustingly bigoted and politically biased the coverage of the New York Times is about the wife of Muhammad Mursi.   They found this person (a convenient native who is willing to say what the White Man correspondent wants to say) to say this:  "Noran Noaman, 21, an engineering student, said Ms. Mahmoud embarrassed her. “If you travel to New York or wherever, people would make fun of you and say: ‘Your first lady wears the abaya, hahaha,’ ” she said. “Previous first ladies used to be elegant.”"   Oh, really.  The multiple wives of the various oil and gas kings and princes have been mostly invisible for decades and that has never bothered the US or the media.  How come this will be a problem?  Also, it was very clear during the campaign (even from liberal candidates) that the model represented by Jihan Sadat or Susanne Mubarak was not a model favored by Egyptians--and not necessarily due to sexism mind you--it was more due to...corruption.  The same thing in Jordan: many of the complaints about Queen Youtube Rania is about the corruption of her family and her desperate attempt to impress and please the White Man--very much like Jihan Sadat.  Susanne Mubarak treated the Egyptian museum as her own personal closet.  

Queen Youtube was allowed out of the ruling palace in Amman

Queen Youtube

From Ahmet in Tunisia:  "Asad, we have one theory right here from the Guradian: it sounds like the Mukhabarat pulled a fast on her : " According to sources in Amman, the previous head of the Mukhabarat secret police told the queen she needed to lower her profile for the good of the monarchy. It is rumoured that a journalist who published negative stories about her was on the Mukhabarat payroll. A claim that she was helping Palestinians acquire Jordanian citizenship was especially damaging.""

Queen Youtube

For those who asked, Queen Youtube of Jordan is still missing.  She was last seen tweeting.  If you happen to see her, please report to the Police station in Davos.

Let them eat my old shoes: Queen Youtube in the news

"An Indian jeweller has been hired to make golden shoes for Jordan's Queen Rania Al-Abdullah.  The Calcutta jeweller, who wants to remain anonymous, has been asked to make two pairs of 22 carat gold shoes.  Each pair will weigh 750 grams and will be embellished with diamonds and topaz.  The Bengali daily newspaper Anandabazar Patrika reports the jeweller said: "The queen used to get her shoes designed in Peshawar but they were not made of pure gold, only gold threads were used on the leather." (thanks Shehadeh)

sighting of Queen Youtube of Jordan

This is the news that you read in official Jordanian newspapers:  "Some of the clients insisted on approaching the King to express their allegiance, love, and respect, he noted.  The co-owner of the popular family restaurant noted that over his protestations that the King should not pay for the meal, His Majesty insisted on paying the bill.  The Royal family spent about an hour at the eatery, posing with people who wanted to take pictures with them."  The PlayStation King has no real reforms to offer his people, so he has been offering them gimmicks: going to public places and doing snap inspections at government offices.  (thanks Ahmet)

He is not a crook

The brother of Jordanian queen, Rania of past Youtube fame, finally commented on all the news and talk about his corruption. He said that he is not a crook and wants you to know that. 

Jordanian potentate

You can't fault the isolated and increasingly unpopular Jordanian potentate for pontificating on the subject of the Arab uprisings (do you notice that his wife, Queen Youtube, is now not allowed to speak in public and to travel to West to regale Western racist audiences with tales about Arab women?).  You blame the silly Western media who speak to him as if he is a wise man of the Middle East.  I know.  I know. They love that he speak unaccented English (he speaks accented Arabic).
