It is always dangerous to underestimate anybody.

I think it's almost impossible for any expert to predict for the rapid changes we see in the Middle East. They are rapid and they will continue for quite a while.

Is Israel going to continue to be 'Fortress Israel'? Or, as we all hope, become accepted into the neighborhood, which I believe is the only way we can move forward in harmony.

I hope that none of the countries in the Middle East are planning anything but the peaceful utilization of nuclear energy.

Remember you don't do anything in isolation.

I think the debate in our society now is that people have to agree on zero-tolerance to terrorism.

For me, I am left leaning when it comes to health and education, on the right when it comes to defense. So I don't know where I come on the political spectrum. And I think this the challenge that a lot of Jordanians have to deal with.
