何ヶ月か前にBBCで放送した「現ヨルダン王、アブドゥラ国王とラミア王妃」の番組を思い出しました。
確か、現国王は幼い頃に「皇太子」の称号を外され英国で教育を受け、アラビア語よりも英語が得意と云う人。
で、調べてみたら、このロイヤルカップルは、英米イスラエルにとって大変都合の良い背景をお持ちです。
アブドゥラ国王は、母親が英国生まれ。（アントワネット・トニ・ガードナー、と云う事は英国人か）
４歳の時に「皇太子」から外され、英国で教育を開始され、米国で高校教育を完了。
１９８０年、１８歳の時に、英国陸軍士官学校に入り、英国と西ドイツで、英国陸軍として勤務。
その後オックスフォードとジョージタウン大学へ。
１９９８年には特殊部隊を率いて、アンマンで８人を殺害したガンマンを襲撃する作戦を遂行。
１９９９年２月、前フセイン国王が亡くなるわずか数日前に、叔父であるハッサン王子から「皇太子」の地位の
切り替えを受けることに成功。
（ここには当然、米英の意志が働いていると見て良いでしょう）

Profile: King Abdullah of Jordan
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/1632651.stm
Abdullah is one of the new generation of Arab leaders
Before taking on one of the hardest jobs in the Middle East at the age of 37, Abdullah bin Hussein had a successful career in the Jordanian army, a body which forms the bedrock of support for the Hashemite monarchy.
The king has sought to follow in his father's footsteps
Abdullah had not been groomed for the crown. His uncle Hassan had been Crown Prince for many years, while the late King Hussein was known to favour Prince Hamzah - his son by Queen Noor - as a possible successor.
In the event, the teenage Hamzah may have been considered too young to fulfil the dying king's wish, and the succession was switched from Hassan to Abdullah only days before King Hussein's death in February 1999.
Since his emergence from relative obscurity, Abdullah has followed a policy of continuing his father's paternalistic style of rule and moderate, pro-West political viewpoint.
But the pro-Western stance of the Jordanian monarchy has been under severe pressure since the outbreak of the Palestinian uprising in September 2000 and the 11 September suicide attacks on the US.
King Abdullah biography
Born on 30 January 1962
Married with three children
Educated in UK and US
Commander of Jordanian Special Forces
The king has spearheaded efforts to defuse the violence between Israel and the Palestinians - a conflict which has enflamed public opinion in Jordan whose population is mainly of Palestinian origin.
Jordan has also often voiced solidarity with the Palestinian people and offered medical and other services to them.
In the wake of 11 September, King Abdullah has emphasised to Washington the importance of finding a route to Middle East peace for the anti-terror campaign, while giving the least ambiguous backing to US military action in Afghanistan of any Arab leader.
King of disguise
These crises came after a long honeymoon period in which the king won praise for the sincerity of his efforts to improve the lives of Jordanians, who are still waiting for the economic bonanza that was promised after the historic1994 peace treaty with Israel.
He famously donned disguises - as a TV reporter and a white-bearded sheikh - to see what conditions were really like in his kingdom.
Abdullah's mother is UK-born Princess Muna
These forays have formed part of anti-corruption efforts and initiatives to stimulate business and foreign investment, efforts which culminated in the free trade agreement with the US that was recently approved in Washington.
The outings must also have given the king a rare taste of the civilian life of his subjects.
The son of King Hussein's British-born second wife, Princess Muna (nee Antoinette "Toni" Gardiner), Abdullah was schooled in England from the age of four and completed his high school education in the United States.
He later took one-year courses in international affairs at Oxford and Georgetown Universities writing a masters degree thesis on the Arab-Israeli conflict.
Military man
In 1980 he joined the British military academy at Sandhurst and served in the British army in West Germany and Britain.
He served in Jordan's 41st and 90th armoured brigades, the air force's Helicopter Anti-tank Wing and the Second Guards Brigade.
In 1993 he was appointed deputy commander of the Special Forces, assuming command one year later.
His main role was in a highly specialised commando unit dedicated to maintaining internal order, which helped to quell riots in southern Jordan in 1996.
He became special forces commander before learning of his succession
In 1998 he led a high-profile special forces operation to storm the hideout of gunmen who had killed eight people in Amman. When the shooting was over Jordanians chanted his name on the streets.
Although he speaks colloquial, barrack-room Arabic fluently, Abdullah speaks English better than Fusha or classical Arabic - although he has made great strides in improving his Fusha, which protocol demands for official appearances.
He is a qualified diver and pilot and a keen free-fall parachutist. His other interests include car racing (he is a former Jordanian National Rally Racing Champion), water sports, scuba diving and collecting ancient weapons.

Profile: Jordan's Queen Rania
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/1632614.stm
Queen Rania: Outspoken about 'honour killings'
Queen Rania al-Abdullah is one of the most visible first ladies in the Arab world, and has become a regular fixture on the society pages of London magazines.
Known for her affection for designer goods, she is also viewed by many as one of the world's best-dressed women.
But the queen who came from a family of Palestinian origin, recently came under fire for leaving the country at a time when Israel is stepping up military operations in the West Bank and Gaza.
The royal couple have three children
She was travelling abroad in May when her own family's home town, Tulkarm, was bombed to avenge a suicide attack on Israel.
"Her absence inflamed feelings in the [refugee] camps," a businessman from Amman told the UK newspaper the Sunday Telegraph.
Glamour
But to most people, Queen Rania is a glamorous figure and a champion for women and children's rights. She has founded numerous charities.
She is an outspoken critic of "honour killing" - the custom of men murdering any female relative found to have committed adultery or lost her virginity before marriage.
A doctor's daughter, she was born in Kuwait on 31 August 1970.
The queen is known for her fashon sense
She went to primary and secondary school in Kuwait, then earned a degree in Business Administration from the American University in Cairo.
From there she went on to a brief career in marketing at Citibank, before taking a job at Apple Computer in Amman.
She met her future husband at a dinner party in January 1993. Two months later, they were engaged and by June they were married.
The king and queen now have three children, including a one-year-old baby.
Jordan's first lady is an active woman. Her hobbies, according to the Queen Rania web site, include water skiing, running and cycling
Suburban home
When King Abdullah Bin al-Hussein and Queen Rania al-Abdullah ascended the throne in 1999, they brought a more populist approach to the Jordanian monarchy.
The royal couple have eschewed palace surroundings in favour of a suburban home outside Amman.
While her husband is known for mingling with his subjects in disguise, Queen Rania prefers to visit remote villages in the kingdom.
Her trips are unplanned and unannounced. She simply gets into her car and drives off with a pair of security guards in tow.

Jordan queen given military rank
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/middle_east/3798597.stm
Rania is commited to breaking stereotypes of Arab women
Queen Rania of Jordan has been granted the honorary rank of full colonel in the country's armed forces.
Her husband King Abdullah also made his Palestinian-born wife head of the Queen Rania Society for the Support of the Military and their Families.
The society, which was started by Rania three months ago, supports needy military families, widows and orphans.
In March, Rania launched a media campaign to change women's stereotypes and boost their role in Arab society.
"You were always the nearest to me to share my opinion on the necessity of providing the requirements and decent life standards to all the boys and girls in our one big Jordanian family, especially the members of the armed forces and their families," the king said in a letter addressed to Rania published by the Jordanian news agency Petra.
