Jordanian Royal Family Picture Thread, Part 1

[Bubbette]

Since when does that mean anything--look at Charles and Elizabeth.

[Reina]

Yeah. I really don't know what is going on. To me it looks like that she does not have a prominent role in that immediate family. And it kind of looks like he does not care about her, but I think he does to a certain point. Obviously he does respect her and take care of her. But I think that KA and QR are too close knit to allow PMuna to ahve alot of influence or say in alot of matters.

I've noticed that Princess Aya is becoming active in terms of attending engagements...is this supposed to mean something? is something going to happen? or am I just reading into this too muc?

[Nad25]

Isnt Aya a little darling:) . I think shes becoming like her mother Princess Alia whos always active and busy with her countries affairs. As the princess gets older i think the royal court gives them duties to carry own and get used to the lives that they were born into.

[mahawi]

From Jordantimes Jordan marks death of King Talal

AMMAN (JT) — Today marks the 33rd anniversary of the death of King Talal Ben Abdullah, father of His Majesty the late King Hussein and Their Royal Highnesses Prince Mohammad, Prince Hassan and Princess Basma. Under his reign, the country prepared a new liberalised Constitution in 1952, which introduced a culture of Arab unity by declaring Jordan part of the Arab nation. The Constitution also established a new relationship between the government and the Parliament by obliging the former to be answerable to the latter and to be responsible for its actions before the legislature.

The Constitution also covered the implementation of the principles and objectives of the Great Arab Revolt, led by Sharif Hussein Ben Ali in the early 20th century against Ottoman rule.

During King Talal's rule, Jordan concluded important agreements including a pan-Arab collective security agreement.

King Talal, born in Mecca in 1909, studied at the British Military Academy, Sandhurst, and in 1929 became the first Jordanian officer to graduate from the institute.

In 1934, he married Zein Al Sharaf, the late Queen Mother, who died in 1994.

King Talal assumed the Throne shortly after the assassination of King Abdullah I on July 20, 1951.

Due to health reasons, he abdicated a year later on Aug. 11, 1952 in favour of his eldest son Prince Hussein.

King Talal died July 7, 1972.

well, that's odd as the mag I took the pic from was dated 1968, in fact she has the twins, who were born in 1968, in her lap, so she was celebrating her 52th b-day, the mag was wrong, sorry for that-
