This is just a side-note for everyone here. This is not an advertisement - it is one way that I think that the truth can be promoted throughout America.
I highly encourage everyone to read Queen Noor's book
"Leap of Faith: Memoirs of an Unexpected Life" and once you finish reading it, PASS IT ON. This book looks like it would be a cute romance story about how one woman became a Queen - but it's not. Instead it is a virtual textbook, factual-packed and easy to read. She gives a great historical and modern account of Palestine, Israel, the UN, and American policy in the Middle East. If more people read this book then more Americans will be educated as to the realities of what is going on behind our backs. If we help spread this book around we can put an end to American ignorance! I don't want to start a riot or a political uprising or anything like that. However, I feel that it's only fair that we Americans KNOW what is going on. And since America is "by the People for the People" we can come together and peacefully put a stop to the corruption and stupidity.
I read her book and then I wrote Her Majest an email - and to my shock and surprise I recieved an email in return!! I highly encourage everyone to write to Queen Noor about her book so that she may be encoraged to KEEP WRITING. Jordan can set the example and be the inspiration we so badly need in this world.
I have tried to post this topic on other Islamic and non-Islamic message boards but I am told that there is "no politics allowed". That is frustrating! You try to share the truth and you are gagged.
I think that this book is a worthy investment and it's worth the effort to pass it along. I'm going to buy copies one-by-one and give them away at my college campus.
