Amman, Jordan is one of the fastest growing cities in the world, and the ongoing desertification of the region continues to threaten its resources. Our SUGi Forest Maker Deema Assaf watched her hometown of Amman become almost unrecognisable as urbanisation swept through its landscapes.Understanding the cost of losing so much Nature she trained to become a Forest Maker and in 2018 she planted the first Miyawaki Forest of the Arab world.Focussing on preserving the genetic diversity of Jordan, Deema's important work has protected some of the country's most endangered tree species. On this excerpt of SUGi Talks, we speak about Amman's rapid urbanisation, and the importance of changing mindsets towards Nature
20th February 2025Dr. Lex Takkenberg will spell out the basic facts about the Agency's mandate, history and work on behalf of Palestinian refugees. A Dutch National, he is Senior Advisor on the Question of Palestine at ARDD, Arab Renaissance for Democracy and Development, in Amman. From 1989 until 2019, he worked in various field and headquarters positions with UNRWA, the UN agency for Palestinian refugees, most recently at its Amman headquarters as the agency's first Chief Ethics Officer. He was previously UNRWA's General Counsel, Director of Operations, and (Deputy) Field Director in Gaza and Syria. Before joining UNRWA, he was the Legal Officer of the Dutch Refugee Council, from 1983 until 1989. A law graduate from the University of Amsterdam, where he also worked as an Academic Assistant from 1987-1989, he obtained a Doctorate in International Law from the University of Nijmegen, the Netherlands, in 1997 after having successfully defended his doctoral dissertation entitled The Status of Palestinian Refugees in International Law. Oxford University Press (OUP) published a commercial edition of the dissertation in 1998; an integral Arabic translation was published by the Institute for Palestine Studies in 2003. A new version of the book – co-authored with Francesca Albanese – was published, also with OUP, in 2020.
Lebanon's newly formed government has omitted any mention of “armed resistance” from its ministerial statement for the first time in two decades. The National heard from a Yemeni journalist formerly detained by Houthi forces. President Sheikh Mohamed told US Secretary of State Marco Rubio the UAE strongly opposes any attempt to displace the Palestinian people from Gaza.

A Common Word podcast focuses on Islam and Interreligious Studies. It is inspired by the Qur'anic verse 3:64 which calls the People of the Book to "a common word" and the A Common Word Initiative held in 2007 in Amman, Jordan. It interviews scholars, activists and practitioners in the realm of bridge building, peace studies and social justice.
Ürdün Kralı Abdullah'ın ABD Başkanı Trump karşısındaki ezik görüntüsü, on yıllardır özelde Arap dünyasındaki, genelde coğrafyamızdaki bütün sorunların temelidir. Savaşların, işgallerin, istikrarsızlıkların, iç çatışmaların, kitlesel huzursuzlukların hatta terör örgütlerinin bu kadar etkin olmasının ana sebebidir. Liderliklerin “emanet” oluşunun, iktidarların “pazarlık”la ayakta kalışının, millet ve vatandan önce “vesayet”in egemen oluşunun örneği bir kez daha gösterilmiştir.
Kair i Amman od dziesięcioleci są ważnymi partnerami USA w regionie; jednak postulowane przez amerykańskiego prezydenta przyjęcie milionów Palestyńczyków jawi się jako poważny problem.

President Donald Trump is threatening to cut off aid to Jordan and Egypt if they do not submit to his outrageous demand to take in the Palestinians he hopes to forcibly displace from Gaza. Forced population transfers and denying people the right to return to their land are violations of international law. The president's idea of emptying Gaza of Palestinians, so the U.S. can take over the Gaza Strip and redevelop it, ignores important history. Palestinians who were once driven into Jordan after 1967 turned that country into a base to attack Israel, leading to a civil war in Amman in 1970. Trump is also repeating the mistake of the Abraham Accords, the diplomatic breakthrough of his first term. In this episode, scholar Khaled Elgindy breaks down Trump's Gaza proposal and delves into the origins of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.

"Killing and Starving children is not Jewish. Fighting antisemitism demands decoupling of Jews from Israel." Since many people don't have time to read full articles anymore, I want to start by linking to two poignant interviews I've had the privilege of conducting over the last few years: - Dr. Izzeldin Abuelaish, the first Palestinian doctor to work in an Israeli hospital: lost his wife to leukaemia aged just 43, leaving him with their 8 children. Just four months later,during the 2008-9 Gaza War, three of his daughters and one niece were killed. And yet Izzeldin has dedicated his life to using health as a vehicle for peace. https://play.rtl.lu/shows/en/in-conversation-with-lisa-burke/episodes/n/1612726 - Bassam Aramin, Palestinian, and Rami Elhanan, Israeli, are members of The Parents Circle – Families Forum (PCFF), due to the most painful loss of their daughters at different times due to the intractable Israel and Palestine conflict. They have become 'brothers' and advocate constantly for solidarity and peace in their land. https://play.rtl.lu/shows/en/in-conversation-with-lisa-burke/episodes/n/2171062 Last week saw the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz. It also saw the return of Palestinians to the north of Gaza. This juxtaposition of events hits hard. The 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz had 56 survivors of the camp in attendance; down from 200 survivors for the 75th anniversary. We are losing the voice of those who experienced violence, discrimination, hatred and genocide first hand in these camps of torture and death. Of course we must add it was not only Jews that suffered in these camps. Meanwhile, anti-semitism is on the rise since Hamas attacked Israel on 7 October 2023 and the ensuing war in Gaza and Lebanon. This sudden attack on 7 October was not out of nowhere of course. It follows in a line of attacks on both sides, and in the greater region, over decades, despite various ‘agreements', ‘accords', political handshakes… nothing has yet brought peace. On my show this week I have four strong and learned voices on the region, the culture and the law: - Dalia Hader, a Palestinian living in Luxembourg who is asking for petition signatures here so that the Government of Luxembourg discusses this topic in the chamber: “Luxembourg must sanction Israel for its policies in Palestine.” https://www.petitions.lu/petition/3231 - Martine Kleinberg, President, Jewish Call for Peace a.s.b.l. - Dr. Michel Erpelding, International lawyer specialising in this region - Dr. Engy Ali, President of MSF Luxembourg Dalia Hader, is a Palestinian from Jerusalem but grew up primarily in Amman, Jordan. Like so many Palestinians, families often move if they have a choice as it becomes untenable to ‘live' and raise a family in Israel / Palestine. Current records show the state of Palestine to have about 5.5 million inhabitants. The Palestinian diaspora is numbered at about 7.4 million. About one third of Palestinians living in Palestine are under the age of 15; only about 3% live to be over 65. We discuss one definition of genocide with Dr. Michel Erpelding, which targets the killing of children to minimise population growth. Access to care and medication Dr. Engy Ali, President of Médecins Sans Frontières, MSF Luxembourg, is specialised in Critical Care medicine and public health, working for over 20 years in the medical and humanitarian field; 12 years with Médecins Sans Frontières/Doctors without Borders. She has worked in Bangladesh, Kenya, Somalia, Nigeria, Lebanon, Syria, Egypt, Mali, Mauritania, Haiti, Liberia, DRC, Philippines, Pakistan, Gaza and Europe. The MSF team in Gaza have lost 9 members since 7 October 2023. This loss is deeply felt by the MSF family as they dedicate their lives to giving access to health to all, equally. ‘Access to care and medication' is, according to Dr. Ali, the driving force of MSF. Dr. Ali reminds us that MSF has been present in Gaza for years. She herself was working Gaza in 2020, trying to organise medical evacuation programmes for complex trauma cases (but then Covid 19 happened.) “Our humanitarian action in Gaza is guided by our core humanitarian principles of neutrality and impartiality, but we do not stay silent about humanitarian crises as in Gaza. We publicly speak out and report attacks on healthcare facilities, shortages of medical supplies, and obstacles to access care, ensuring that humanitarian needs are recognized.” The testimonials you hear in this interview are from from Nadia Abo Mallouh, MSF medical coordinator from Rafah, and Abu Abed, Deputy Medical Coordiantor. Impunity reinforces antisemitism Martine Kleinberg, President of Jewish Call for Peace (JCP) has worked unceasingly to increase the clamour of Jewish voices that do not want to be connected with the direction of Israel's government and want to work with Palestinians for peace. This is a growing movement around the world with the Jewish Voice for Peace, and the Not in My Name refrain. https://jewishcallforpeace.lu Martine is herself trained in conflict resolution and prevention. JCP is a founding Member of the European Jews for Palestine launched in October 2024, with more than 20 organisations in 14 European countries, a member of Global Jews for Palestine, and a Member of Luxembourg Collectives for Palestine. On 1 February Martine organised a conference to discuss: “Exploiting Memory: the Holocaust and the distortion of antisemitism” In organising this event, Martine faced cultural decision makers in Luxembourg who did not want their venue associated with such open conversations. Neimënster said no; the Culture Bar said yes. Neimenster said this event did not “correspond to their values…the title leads to negative interpretations against associations and institutions partnered with Neimënster. As a public establishment we remain a neutral entity and cannot be associated with this type of event” Martine is extremely clear in her own reckoning of what the Israeli government are doing to use Judaism as an instrument of war: “I refuse the instrumentalization of my Jewish identity for colonialist supremacist purpose, that has nothing to do with Judaism. My commitment is the solidarity with the oppressed and deconstruction of antisemitic prejudices.” Martine believes strongly that there is a “weaponization of the Holocaust memory and antisemitism by Israel, to gain impunity, which is destroying international law”. “Fighting antisemitism demands decoupling of Jews from Israel.” Martine Kleinberg is aghast on why almost no religious leaders, of all religions, cannot speak out with clarity that the violence against a trapped civilian population in Gaza is indefensible and wrong Does International Law have any power anymore? Michel Erpelding, is a legal scholar in the history of international law, with an additional degree in Middle Eastern studies, and works on international law particularly related to colonialism and individual rights. We speak about the definitions of international lawyers and the International Criminal Court of war crimes, crimes against humanity, genocide and apartheid. Israel was viewed by the UN, well before 7 October 2023, as an occupying power in Gaza, and as such remained bound by international law to meet the essential needs of the civilian population. Israel can control water going into Gaza. It can exert decisive control over Gaza via land, air and sea. We explore the notion of ‘double standards' in political discourse when it comes to annexation (for example, Putin annexing Crimea; Netanyahu annexing East Jerusalem, the Golan Heights and the West Bank). Naturally the 7 October attacks by Hamas was the catalyst to this most recent war, but there is also the legal notion of ‘proportionality' in war. Dr. Erpeling and Dalia discuss why the Oslo Accords of 1995 did not work. “Oslo led to a clearer apartheid reality in the West Bank and Jerusalem” says Dalia, and goes on to say how certain Palestinian segregation means one cannot drive on certain roads, cannot visit certain parts of Palestine without the ‘right' passport, requires a certain number plate, will be held up for hours at check-points to be humiliated, and so the layers of discrimination continue. This un-ending story of war sits in a region where, fundamentally, humanity has been abandoned. And this humanity at its core, will find not much difference between Israelis and Palestinians, just like the Irish and Northern Irish, just like the Ukrainians and Russians. When the Ukraine war started, how often did we hear the line, “But they are our brothers and sisters?” Humanity is a source of life and support. Borders, walls, check-points, active discrimination and suppression are not the acts of humans who, with a religion or not, know what is right in their heart. Let's end with a recent poll in the French newspaper La Tribune Dimanche, which showed that when 986 people aged between 16 and 24 were questioned about the Holocaust, one in five had never heard of it (18%), and almost one in five had heard of it without knowing more (17%). Let's try to remember what has gone before. Let's try to break the circles of hatred in history. Get in touch Contact Lisa on LinkedIn or via her website.

With new Israeli legislation coming into effect on Thursday outlawing Palestine refugee agency, UNRWA, international staff have already been forced to leave the agency's headquarters in East Jerusalem for Jordan, after their visas were cut short.The UN is bracing for the “nightmare scenario” which would mean a halt to all operations – a major blow to “all the people it serves” in the region, UNRWA spokesperson Jonathan Fowler told UN News's Ezzat El-Ferri from Amman, Jordan.The move represents another blow to multilateralism worldwide, he said.
When engaging Muslims with the truth of Christianity, it is crucial we understand clearly not only our own doctrines but those of our Muslim friends and neighbors as well. While we use many familiar-sounding concepts, our definitions are often radically different.

We talk more about his 2020 two-volume publication God With Us and Without Us - The Beauty and Power of Oneness in Trinity versus Absolute Oneness. Imad will share more valuable insights from his decades of engagement with Muslims about the nature of our Triune God and the absolute oneness of Allah.Dr. Imad Shehadeh is President and Senior Professor of Theology at Jordan Evangelical Theological Seminary, Amman, Jordan, which he founded in 1991. Dr Shehadeh earned his PhD from Dallas Theological Seminary, Texas, and has carried out post-doctoral studies at the Evangelische Theologische Faculteit, Leuven, Belgium, and the University of Edinburgh, UK. He has a wide-ranging preaching and teaching ministry including online and television series, and speaking at churches, seminaries and conferences.

Join this milestone episode to look back on the path Where Work Meets Life™ has taken so far and celebrate what is still to come.“I think that passion, it looks and feels different for different people. There's also a reality in the mix of I may be passionate about, you know, some obscure form of art, but I'm not able to support my family off of that. So I may find a career that's interesting and challenging, but my passion remains in that obscure form of art. And that's fine. I think the word passion can be a bit extreme for some people, and it can make them feel that if they don't have a passion, will they be unhappy in their career? And that's not it. But what I sure want for people is not to have the opposite of passion, which is feeling depleted and unfulfilled and it's soul-sucking and you dread Mondays.” Dr. LauraWatch this episode on Dr. Laura's YouTube channelAbout Dave Kelly:Dave Kelly is an award-winning host, writer, and interviewer who creates intelligent and deeply human moments for events and keynote conversations around the world.

In this episode Jennifer shares insights from her 15 years of experience as a language advisor and program director in Amman, Jordan. With over 1,800 students coached, Jennifer discusses common language errors that are often made while learning spoken Levantine Arabic. This episode focuses on two key categories of errors: 1. Verbs with Different Functions: You'll gain awareness of how Arabic verbs can differ significantly from their English counterparts. For instance, while English uses one verb for "to spread," Arabic employs two distinct verbs depending on the context—one for spreading news and another for spreading tangible items like butter. Jennifer highlights the nuances in verb usage and encourages learners to observe these differences in order to improve their communication. 2. Overuse of Delexicalized Verbs: Learn about the pitfalls of relying on delexicalized verbs and helping verbs in Arabic, such as "got" or "made." Jennifer emphasizes that Arabic verbs often carry more meaning on their own, urging learners to adopt more precise language instead of defaulting to simpler expressions that they may use in their first language. Throughout the episode, listeners will gain practical examples in Levantine Arabic and tips for navigating these common challenges learners face with this dialect. This is the beginning of a series aimed at improving your language skills by becoming aware of common mistakes Arabic learners make—stay tuned for more episodes where we'll cover additional errors and provide further insights into effective communication in Levantine Arabic.

Einige Mitglieder der Gruppe lassen sich in Amman von der Palästinensischen Befreiungsorganisation im Guerillakampf ausbilden. Doch der Plan geht mächtig schief: Die antiautoritären Guerilla-Lehrlinge haben mit militärischem Drill nichts am Hut und werden bald wieder nach Deutschland geschickt. Zurück in Berlin gibt es viel zu tun: Geld, Waffen und Autos. Doch die Polizei kann bald fünf RAF-Mitglieder festnehmen. Der Druck auf die RAF steigt und sie werden nervös: Bei einer Verkehrskontrolle zieht die Terroristin Petra Schelm eine Waffe und beginnt um sich zu schießen. Ein FYEO Original.

En Jordanie, les Frères musulmans célèbrent une victoire électorale majeure, remportant 31 sièges et devenant le plus grand bloc au Parlement. Leur succès, marqué par un soutien populaire croissant, rappelle leur ascension dans les années 1980, mais s'accompagne également de défis, notamment face à des partis pro-gouvernementaux. De notre correspondant à Amman,Les Frères musulmans en Jordanie ont fait leur entrée au Parlement par la grande porte, en remportant 31 des 138 sièges, à la suite des élections législatives du 10 septembre. Grâce à cette victoire, ils constituent le plus grand bloc partisan de cette assemblée élue selon une nouvelle loi électorale qui a accordé une plus grande place aux partis politiques.Au sein du Parlement, les actions des Frères musulmans ne se limiteront pas à leurs propres membres. Ils seront rejoints par plusieurs députés alliés, comme ceux du Parti islamique du centre, qui partagent les mêmes convictions idéologiques et politiques sur des enjeux sociaux et économiques. C'est ce que souligne le député Mustafa Al-Amawi. « Nous et le Parti de l'action islamique sommes un seul parti, avec un projet national pour servir la Jordanie, indique le député, et nous combattons quiconque s'oppose à elle, même si nous avons des désaccords avec le gouvernement. »Cependant, il existe également un nombre significatif de députés qui s'opposent à la vision des Frères musulmans sur les questions internes et externes, notamment ceux du Parti de la Charte nationale, qui a remporté 22 sièges et qui est le plus proche des politiques pro-gouvernementales. Selon Mohammad Al-Momani, membre du Parlement : « Après ces élections, les partis surveilleront leurs performances respectives. Les Jordaniens rechercheront désormais des programmes qui traitent de leurs problèmes quotidiens plutôt que de grandes déclarations. »À lire aussi Législatives en Jordanie : « On pouvait s'attendre à une percée des islamistes, mais pas de cette ampleur »Le soutien au Hamas, l'une des raisons qui expliquent la victoire des Frères musulmansLa victoire des Frères musulmans s'explique par trois raisons principales, selon l'expert politique Yasser Qatishat : leur soutien à Hamas après les événements du 7 octobre, la présence de programmes réformistes populaires, et l'absence d'interventions sécuritaires, en particulier de la part des services de renseignement, lors des dernières élections.« Le pourcentage de voix obtenu par les Frères musulmans reflète un soutien populaire pour les islamistes, explique l'expert politique, surtout en raison de la guerre à Gaza, qui est associée au Hamas, un groupe avec lequel ils ont une forte solidarité populaire. »Le gouvernement jordanien craint un affrontement direct avec les membres du Parlement affiliés aux Frères musulmans sur plusieurs dossiers sensibles, notamment les accords de paix et les échanges économiques avec Israël, ainsi que le système éducatif et les programmes scolaires.

Earlier this week, Iran retaliated against Israel for the killing of the leaders of Hamas and Hezbollah, Ismael Haniyeh and Hassan Nasrallah respectively, by launching the largest ballistic missile barrage in history. It is still unclear what was hit and how much damage was inflicted, due to heavy Israeli military censorship. We do know that the Iron Dome did not intercept all of the missiles, and many did hit their intended target.

Al Jazeera condemned the closure and is still broadcasting live from Amman, Jordan. *) Beijing's behaviour in South China Sea, Taiwan Strait 'aggressive': Biden US President Joe Biden said that China is "behaving aggressively" in the South China Sea and Taiwan Strait, using diplomacy to advance its interests.

"It's another day on the beat, what can I tell ya?" Our heroes whip through the blood vine portal and find themselves in the eldritch wreck of a museum. Deep in its vaults, they come face to face with a faceless foe. Will they walk away triumphant from this new and strange place? Probably not. == CREDITS == Soundtrack "Scepter Drones" by Sayer Roberts "Stronger Reclaimed" by Sayer Roberts "Hyper Drive" by Hampus Naeselius, Epidemic Sound "Necroplis" from Tabletop Audio "Spilled Milk" by Jay Varton, Epidemic Sound "Losing Breath" by Ludvig Moulin, Epidemic Sound "Siege" by STRLGHT, Epidemic Sound "Lost in Amman" by Oh the City, Epidemic Sound "Eerie" by _91Nova, Epidemic Sound "Earthquake" by Anthony Earls, Epidemic Sound "Hiding DNA" by Skyra, Epidemic Sound "Dark Age" by Homebody, Epidemic Sound "Lethal Secrets" by Christoffer Moe Ditlevsen, Epidemic Sound "The Pulse of My Heart" by Pearce Rowsell, Epidemic Sound "Misty Gaze" by Daniel Fridel, Epidemic Sound "Cross Section" by Guy Copeland, Epidemic Sound "Timeline" by Guy Copeland, Epidemic Sound "Where Does it End" by Max Anson, Epidemic Sound "It All Came Down" by Miles Avida, Epidemic Sound "Our Gravity" by Christophe Gorman, Epidemic Sound "King of Forest Green" by Isobel O'Connor, Epidemic Sound "Sunday at the Museum" by Franz Gordon, Epidemic Sound "Fairy's Fear" by Deskant, Epidemic Sound "Departure from the Past" by Pulsed, Epidemic Sound "Spider Theory" by Sage Oursler, Epidemic Sound

Hosted by the comedy cellar owner Noam Dworman and producer Hatem Gabr, the show features expert guests discussing news, culture, and politics with a blend of knowledge and laughter. About Rana: Everything I do is about changing behavior and attitude. I help business executives, diplomats and government officials refine their professional profile and increase the impact of their personal presence by making shifts in their attitude, behavior and appearance. I founded my company – YARNU in 2013 (an Arabic word meaning to look towards, to aspire to with calm and serenity). YARNU helps people distinguish themselves by raising their social and cultural intelligence, enabling them to float with ease and confidence from one situation to the other. Certified to use a number of tools that measure behavior and culture, we work with businesses and organizations to help them create the organizational culture that best supports their objectives and values. My first book “When in the Arab World: An Insider's Guide to Living and Working with Arab Culture” was published in the UK May 2016, and the second expanded edition came out in 2019. I am regularly invited to speak on the subject of cross-cultural communications. I started out my career as a broadcast journalist with Jordan Television. After working with CNN during the First Gulf War, I moved to the Royal Hashemite Court where I was responsible for His Majesty the late King Hussein's International Media Department for 2 years. I then moved into the field of communications and public relations leading the public diplomacy and communications work of the British Embassy in Amman for 18 years. I carry a Masters degree in International Communications and Negotiations from The Fletcher School of Law and Diplomacy. I am certified by The Protocol School of Washington in International Protocol Management and am a certified coach in Inter-Cultural Intelligence and a Facilitator in the psychometric tool Everything Disc Follow Live From America YouTube @livefromamericapodcast twitter.com/AmericasPodcast www.LiveFromAmericaPodcast.com LiveFromAmericapodcast@gmail.com Follow Hatem Twitter.com/HatemNYC Instagram.com/hatemnyc/ Follow Noam Twitter.com/noam_dworman #Socialintelligence #RanaNejem #whenintheArabworld

NATO MET IN D.C. this week, celebrating its 75th anniversary with a series of moves that take the world closer to war. Specifically, NATO announced a new military command to coordinate arms shipments and training for Ukraine; offered Ukraine an “irreversible path” to NATO membership; opened a liaison office in Amman, Jordan; and signed a military agreement with South Korea, expanding its reach into the Asia-Pacific. The latter move is significant because it comes as China moves closer to reintegrating Taiwan, by force if necessary, and is engaged with Belarus in joint military exercises near the borders of Ukraine and Poland, a NATO member. We also discuss parallels between the geopolitical situation of a hundred years ago and the present day. Just as Europe fumbled its way into World War 1, which set the conditions for the eruption of World War 2, we're seeing interlocking treaties and unbridled hubris setting us up for another global conflict—but this one may involve nuclear weapons.

Host Bob St.Pierre is joined by Mike Amman and Ashly Steinke, both volunteers with the Wisconsin Sharp-tailed Grouse Society, for a conversation about prairie grouse, barrens habitat, and dog training. When most folks think about sharp-tailed grouse and greater prairie chickens, they automatically think about the large expanses of prairie grasslands across the Dakotas or Montana or Nebraska. There is, however, a somewhat “secret” population of sharp-tailed grouse in Wisconsin's brushland habitat. Episode Highlights: • Steinke, an ecologist with Audubon Society, shares his personal passion and professional knowledge focused on growing Wisconsin's sharp-tailed grouse population through habitat management and brushland connectivity. • Amman, a forester for Wisconsin's Bayfield County, discusses his perspective on the importance of the state's brushland habitat and the wildlife dependent upon this unique form of grasslands habitat, even though he's also passionate about the state's Northwoods forests. • The guys also discuss the value Wisconsin Sharp-tailed Grouse Society find in having a booth to recruit new members from all over the country at National Pheasant Fest & Quail Classic.
