His Majesty @KingAbdullahII meets with Bahrain King Hamad bin Isa Al Khalifa in Manama to discuss current regional developments. The two leaders condemned Iran’s attacks on #Jordan, #Bahrain, and a number of Arab states, which constitute a violation of state sovereignty and a threat to international peace and security.

@RshakhShakhshir This is an independent venture. At the same time, I reached out to the Royal Court to set up an interview with Crown Prince Hussein. I hope to include his perspective in this project if the Royal Court agrees.

Middle East Eye@MiddleEastEye·
Magid offers a richly reported narrative built on more than a hundred interviews with Jordanian officials, western diplomats, intelligence figures, military officers and analysts, supplemented by archival material in the US and UK. The result is a fast-moving, accessible portrait of a ruler deeply embedded in western political and security circuits
