oh, well.
I just thought because the article said 'Organisers of the Jerash Festival of Culture and Arts announced this week the postponement of this year’s festival'

but it seems you are right :ermm:
 
I agree with you. In addition to that you also highlit the fact that the position that she is in, isn't one of her own choosing. Hence when asked complex questions, she can 'do' no more than promote peace.

I agree with you. Queen Noor is in a difficult position. She is a Queen. Her husband, the former King of Jordan, is dead. She lives in the US. She does not have an "official" political role in the US or in Jordan. She isn't free to say whatever she wants. She can not step on the toes of the current King of Jordan, she is a representative of that family. She can not criticize US policy or the policies of any country.

I think the only "legitimate" role she can take in this conflict is to support peace in the region and stress the humanitarian needs of the refugees. She is famous so her words will influence humanitarian organizations to send aid to people in need. On Larry King she talked about the needs of women and children. They need drinking water, shelter, food, and medicine. I think that it would be inappropriate for her to get involved in the "politics" of the situation. She can be more effective by getting on Larry King and pleading with the world to send aid to war refugees. I admire her for doing whatever she can. I am sure it will help.

it must have been cold there, have seen other pictures from there and all the visitors have worn gloves.
but isn't the white scarf a sign for grief, is it ?
 
Yea which scared me,but as most of u said its freezing in COlarado now, so she probably was cold.
 
Thanks!

Jordan..thanks for the informative article. Its great to see Queen Noor up and about and supporting the arts and cultural awareness.
 
It's true, her position is not easy, anyway her words are conforting, she talks about peace and the needs of the refugees.
She looks a little sad, nevertheless she irradiates beauty and glamour.
 
Queen Noor looks lovely in those photos.
She has cut her hair quite short. Its also nice to see her wearing a different style of caftan, it looks like one of the more traditional Jordanian thobes.
 
I think she wore it a few times,It looks like she loves blue, or maybe she believes in the "evil eye",lol
 
I admit that Blue is very beutiful on her,her turquoise Kaftan was stunning on Hamzah's wedding,and must say that she's aging very well and she's very beautiful for her age 55 I think?


I didn't know that blue on clothes has something to do with "evil eye",i knew it's used in some cultures as pendent sharms or rings,but not on clothes!

Anyway, her title is still Queen of Jordan, so I think she should have some duties to perform in Jordan ,maybe working side by side with QR.
 
The lovely Queen Noor was apparently here in Bermuda a few months ago...I will try to find some photos from when she was here, or if she did in fact come!

Edit: Sorry all...I had a quick look and couldnt find any photos of the event. However, I did find the link from our official newspaper and she did come here back in March! I will still search for photos!!
