I personally believe that any country that has a nuclear program should conform to international regulations and should have international regulatory bodies that check to make sure that any nuclear program moves in the right direction.
ABDULLAH III personally believe that any country that has a nuclear program should conform to international regulations and should have international regulatory bodies that check to make sure that any nuclear program moves in the right direction.
ABDULLAH IIOnes that will provide in return the priceless gifts of hope, security and freedom for our children and our children’s?
ABDULLAH IIYou’re always going to have extremists in every religion.
ABDULLAH III think the success of democracy is not really police security; it’s the presence of a broad middle class.
ABDULLAH III’m easily entertained.
ABDULLAH IIIf you believe that the killing of innocent people is right, then you are not part of my future.
ABDULLAH IIWe have no right to dictate, through irresponsible action or narrow-mindedness, the future of our children, and our children’s children. There has been enough destruction, enough death, enough waste.
ABDULLAH IIAnd no matter what’s happening in the Middle East – the Arab Spring, et cetera, the economic challenges, high rates of unemployment – the emotional, critical issue is always the Israeli-Palestinian one.
ABDULLAH IIJerusalem is a time bomb that I fear is just waiting to go off.
ABDULLAH IIWe have to always hope in humanity that people will make the right choices.
ABDULLAH IIThe monarchy that I hand over to my son is not going to be the same one that I have inherited.
ABDULLAH IIOur response has been, “Well, let’s then make an effort to get the Israelis and the Palestinians to sit around the table.” That hasn’t happened. So we only have ourselves to blame for this crisis.
ABDULLAH IIOver the past few years, the road to confrontation has shown its consequences: loss of innocent lives, destruction and fear. Most costly, however, was the loss of hope.
ABDULLAH III like to look at the glass half full.
ABDULLAH IIEach country its cost analysis is going to be different. So what we are you seeing in Syria, for example, is different than what’s going on in Jordan. The maps are being rewritten.
ABDULLAH IITogether, we can create a world in which peace is real; in which every human being can thrive; in which all share the promise of our century. I believe we can succeed.
ABDULLAH II
