Our Man in Amman
Uneasy lies the head that wears the crown that was invented by the British and then funded by the Americans.

Abdullah II is the fourth king of Jordan, the state that Winston Churchill lopped off the Palestine Mandate in 1921 with, he said, “the stroke of the pen one Sunday afternoon in Cairo.” The plan, as proposed by Lawrence of Arabia in 1918, was to install the three sons of Hussein, the Sharif of Mecca, as the Hashemite emirs, Britain’s proxies in the states it was carving out of Ottoman territory. Abdullah is the last Hashemite standing. He has a pronounced facial tic.
