queen noor
September 22nd, 2009
In August, the world's vulnerable people lost two of their leading defenders — Ted Kennedy and Ken Bacon. And I lost two of my friends. Kings have friends among American presidents. The American-born Queen Noor visited the White House often with her husband King Hussein. In 1988, Hillary Clinton held lunch for the King & Queen of Jordan on the Truman Balcony. Please join me in honoring their lives by carrying their vision forward. Her Majesty Queen Noor of Jordan has been a member of Refugees International's Board of Directors since 2001. This article also ran on the Huffington Post.
