I think this is an excellent idea and I hope it proves to be a success. There are a lot of people who remain very ignorant about the Middle East and view it as one homogenous entity, when clearly this isn't the case.

However, it's a 2-way process and I would love it if there were a Western figure who could maybe come forward so that Arabs could post their stereotypes.

Amman, March 30 (Petra) -- His Majesty King Abdullah II underscored the importance of intensifying American efforts to help Palestinians and Israelis move forward in the peace process. In a meeting with US Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, King Abdullah stressed the importance of achieving a just and lasting political settlement to the conflict between Israel and the Palestinians as soon as possible.

It is wonderful to use a medium like Youtube for something like this. Little Star is correct in saying that the Middle East is not one homogenous mass and this is why it is a shame (my only criticism)that other famous Arab ladies or first ladies like Lalla Salma (to represent Maghreb) and Sheikha Moza (to represent Gulf) and Queen Rania or Asma Assad to represent the Levant - it could have been superstar line up. Or even ordinary Arab peoples. I relly hope it is not going to show Arab people as wannabe Americans like the queen did on Oprah as this is incorrect image of the majority of Arab people but we do need to show our positive faces. There is much wrong in our societies as there is in the West but we also have good points and I am happy this could be a good place to show. I also hope it shows the Christian Arab people, the Druze,the Yemen Jews, the Bahai, the Zoroastrian,the Circassians and the diversity of people that is the Middle East as well as the Shia and Sunni

isn't she great? that's such a good idea. whoever came up with it did great and i'm glad rania decided to take it on forwards.

i hope the channel is a huge success and i'm sure it has the potential to expand to a number of other different approaches of any of rania's other activities. when will rania reply to all the stereotypes?

having said so, i must add the introductory video was a bit too fake. it sounded as if she learnt it by heart or was reading it from a panel, especially at the end.

congratulations, your majesty!

This is a wonderful idea! Personally, I have had the opportunity to know an Egyptian family when I was in college. The family was connected with the university that I attended. The father was a professor of engineering and the daughter was a sorority sister of mine. The family was connected with members of the Egyptian gov't as well. (We took one of the Mubarak relatives to Disneyland.)

I wish that more Westerners could have this experience too and vice versa.
