Aljazeera was wrong... No gifts from Jordan to Condoleezza Rice...

Now, that makes more sense, it was King Abdulla of KSA...

Bilal is the one who pointed out the mistake in his comment... on my earlier post...

The Herald Tribune corrected it here...

Thanks Bilal

Destroying A King's School in Jordan (Built in 1947)

These are the pictures that tell the story of tearing apart a landmark in this country's heritage. If you want to torture a man who has great passion for the history of Amman, all you have to do is take him to stroll down Jabal Amman and walk around the School that was built in 1947, the "Islamic Scientific College" It's wall once stood tall all around the buildings that constituted the architectural stamp of a different era.
