Just realized that fact!

Filed under: General — Abeer @ 1:54 pm

I just can’t understand what happened yesterday.. I didn’t believe it at first! i felt like it’s a small explosion nothing will harm our country! but when i heard the numbers of dead and injured people! and when i read the newspaper and checked the flicker’s and the newspaper’s pictures this morning.. I just don’t know what to say!
yesterday was all real!! i don’t know how it took me so long to realize it could happen to Jordan too…
bas why would anyone do such a thing?!
when i read about the groom who lost his father and father in law on his wedding! and the Syrian director Mustafa Aqqad who lost his daughter.. and Dana “the receptionist of Hayat Amman” and many others.. they weren’t just numbers.. i felt like i knew them.. aw i could have known them!! I mean they are ordinary people! WHY?!
I just can’t describe my feeling right now.. i’m hurt, sad ,but angry!! i really don’t know what to say! i’m still in a shock!
May God bless Jordan and Jordanians!

  3. Imagine how violated America felt when they lost nearly 3,000 people to these same beasts in a single day 4 years ago.

  5. […] The news came as shock for most Jordanians despite the fact that the idea of terrorists attacks occuring in Jordan was not completely absent from everyone’s mind. Hala of Café Lulu said, “I am truly speechless. All I can think of is what, why, when, who, how?”, and Isam Bayazidi said, “I am a little nervous, don’t know what to say or think.” Laith Majali meanwhile said that his day at work had stopped, “I am just going from one site to another searching for any new piece of news”, and Tololy said, “I am trying not to be emotional but the freshest incidents in Amman, the capital of Jordan, have overwhelmed me.” Abeer Bayazidi also described her initial reaction to the news and said, “I felt like it’s a small explosion, nothing will harm our country!” […]

  9. Thanks for directing us to your site. Although we are not Jordanian, we too are deeply affected by the bombings. We grieve for the victims, their family, and for Jordan as a whole. However, we are confident that Jordan will remain a wonderful country, rich in culture, diversity, and hospitality. We hope that it can overcome the hatred and violence of last week.

  10. It’s the price we pay for supporting freedom, JFK once said:
    “The price of freedom is eternal vigilance”
    but we will get over this crisis paying more attention to issues we took for granted, but i hope we don’t turn inyo “post september 11th USA.”
