Months later, bin Laden is said to have sent terrorists after King Abdullah and his family as they vacationed on a yacht in the Mediterranean off the coast of Greece.

I didn't know there had been attempts on KA's life? When?
Two years ago, when KA and family were on a yacht in the Mediterranian, I believe, a small boat filled with explosives was seized as it raced right toward their vessel. Their yacht took evasive actions and the small boat was intercepted and blown up before reaching its target. It was believed to be the work of al Quaeda. This was written about in a profile of KA in "Hello" magazine a few months later. Also, the fairly recent attempt to use poisonous chemicals in Amman to kill thousands targeted KA's home, too. I read that in one of the American magazines like Time or Newsweek.

Default Al-Hussein siblings

all right let the discussions begin, in another thread we were talking about KA's relationship with Ali versus his relationship with QN's kids. This thread is not limited to that discussion, but that too is an interesting discussion. So let's discuss the siblings, sibling rivalry and reasons behind sibling rivalry (if that is, there is any).

let's begin...

I wonder why Hashim and Hamzah are not seen with KA as much, I mean before being stripped of the CP title, P Hamzah used to be seen with KA quite a bit, even Hashim too (every time P Hamz and P Hash were on break they were in Jordan and around KA a lot), but not much anymore...are they being snubbed along with their mother and sisters?

as far as P Ali goes, I'm glad he is getting a better position, I really hope to see more of P Rym tho.

what is worse that Hamzah's name is never mentioned in petra.gov.jo, not after he was stripped of his title.

It is early days yet. It took several years before Prince Hassan's name was mentioned and still does not get air time on the media.

Then Suria replied:


maybe this is the case,if they didn't want QN a round them, they don't care if any of her kids around them too, maybe Hamzah and Hashim are supporting their mother by being beside her out of Jordan, but i think KA controls everything and if he wanted them beside him they will be wither they like it or not.



am glad that PA finally taking a chance to show his ability to be responsible, i think he is going on , with any field he is doing a great job , like football we never seen a better person to make this huge progress ,even KA he couldn't reach even part of PA successful

so i hope that he is taking more chances to prove his self.

there are many facts which can tell us there is trouble in the family, all of QN's family did not attend the coronation of KA, on June 9, 1999- they were there, but left that morning or the day be4e, anyway, even Hamzah, who was his CP at the time, was not there, this is 1 of the various weird things which have been happening since KH's death.

so you don't think that KA wants QN or her kids around, why? I mean why does he not want them around but it's okay to have P Ali around?

I always found very odd that KA loves Ali and Hayah so much, but that's ok, it shows that, of course, he bears no resentment to a woman who disrupt his own family, as KH divorced his own mother 'cos he had fallen in love with Alia- of course, ali and Hayah have no fault, they weren't even born- but, in my opinion, it may be that Abdullah resents and has always been , since Hamzah's birth, the special bond btw his late father and Hamzah, -whom KH called " the apple of my eyes "- it's not odd, in his place, i'd have resented Hamzah, too- as for QN, don't know, KA pretended he loved his step-mum, when his father was alive, and don't think he doesn't love the other 3 kids of QN, but maybe, exp. the 2 girls, they obviously sided with their mum, a thing Hamzah and Hashim have never done- I wonder, why did they always put up with the fact that their own mum was pushed aside, and could not even stay in Jordan as long and as often as she wanted to ????????????????????? :(

This is what we have on the ground, it must be related to their relationship as a family , this is a big family , four wives so they can't be together all the time , KA likes Ali maybe they have a good relation before their father death , so KA wants Ali beside him , maybe he can't trust anyone else , a bout QN family I think QN depended on KH without trying to make a good relation with his other children so they have already week bond and Easley broke when KH died.

I don't understand how everyone is so sure that QN and her kids are not welcome in Jordan, please explain this to me because I'm sure I'm missing something

I heard , back in 2000, that KA told Jordan media not to publish articles about QN on the 1st page, only on the 3rd one, with no pix, and increasly, as in '99, she was still considered Queen of jordan, she was slowly pushed aside, as KA himself said in his famous interview to NYT, back in 2000.:(
