just want to finish my post sending again all my sympathy to the jordans here. hope things get better soon.
Yes, I agree carlota. I saw Rania speaking on DW news and she was very moved by the victims. But although she was obviously upset, she seemed very calm which would have been a comfort to the people she was visiting.

My sympathies to all Jordanians and nounours, i am so very sorry.

Prince Hamzah is back in Jordan,I saw him on the news with King Abdullah,Prince Ali and Prince Hashem they performed Al-Juma'a prayers and Prayed for the victims.

as soon as the pictures are out ill post them here.
I'm glad he's back (if he was away anyway),the brothers have to stick together and show the world that Jordan is strong and will stand in the face of terrorism.

Thank you for all the photos, when initially saw the photo with Rania bending over that lady, I hadn't realised she was wiping away her tears. How incredibly, moving, expecially when now that lil_monkey has told us her story.

Queen Rania: Jordanians are determined after bombings.

'There is Such a Feeling of Unity in Jordan,' She Tells 'GMA'

Nov. 11, 2005 — Jordan's Queen Rania says she woke up with a heavy heart two days after a string of deadly hotel bombings killed at least 60 people in her country. She says she also woke up determined.

"I also woke up with a sense of determination and strength, just knowing that there is such a feeling of unity in Jordan," Queen Rania said today in an exclusive interview with "Good Morning America."

Queen tours city hospitals

AMMAN — Four-year-old Ammar Keilane was laughing and dancing on Wednesday night when an explosion ripped through a wedding party at the Radisson SAS.

When the boy awakened from his coma on Thursday, no one knows if he recognised the visitor holding his hand. Her Majesty Queen Rania stood by Ammar's bedside.

Quote from Queen Rania (from the article above):

“This is what happened to my family, so there's nowhere else I could be today but be with people and try to console them”

thats very sad. No wonder she was inconsolable, any mother would be. Even before Queen Rania's visit to the hospital she was crying and the doctors and nurses were trying to console her.

Queen Noor was on CNN's Anderson Cooper last night to talk about the terrorist attacks in Amman. She said she knew quite a few people who had been hurt or died in the attacks.

A transcript of the show is here:

You have to scroll down the page to find Queen Noor's interview.

Here are some screen caps:
