Palestinian Queen Buys 22 Karat Gold Shoes w/ Diamonds – “Let Them Eat Falafel”
Yesterday, the King of the real “Palestine,” King Abdullah Bin Hussain of Jordan, attacked Israel in a Wall Street Journal op-ed piece, calling for a Palestinian State on Israeli land. That’s because he, a member of the Hashemite minority in Jordan, doesn’t want to give the Palestinian majority, which may be as high as 90-some % of the Jordanian population, a state where they should really have one, if any: Jordan. So, to alleviate that “problem,” he married a Palestinian who lives in the country of Fifth Avenue, New York and occasionally makes appearances in Jordan, when she’s not doing propaganda work with Oprah Winfrey or others among her minions of butt-kissers.

And while many Jordanians–particularly Jordanian Palestinians–live in poverty and have a very low standard of living, Palestinian Queen Rania has a new way to show them how to really live, something you should remember the next time the Jordanian mini-King and his Queen attack Israel or mention “poverty” in Gaza or the “oppressed” Palestinians:
An Indian jeweller has been hired to make golden shoes for Jordan’s Queen Rania Al-Abdullah.
The Calcutta jeweller, who wants to remain anonymous, has been asked to make two pairs of 22 carat gold shoes.
Each pair will weigh 750 grams and will be embellished with diamonds and topaz.
The Bengali daily newspaper Anandabazar Patrika reports the jeweller said: “The queen used to get her shoes designed in Peshawar but they were not made of pure gold, only gold threads were used on the leather.
“The shoes she wants now will be made from pure gold without leather or foam.”
The newspaper says Jordanian officials had reportedly paid an advance of £34,468 for the job and the remainder, “a substantial amount of money”, will be paid after delivery.
The jeweller says he has imported three kilograms of gold from London to be used in the making of the shoes over the next two months.
Wow, those shoes sound really functional.
Again, remember the Palestinian Queen’s diamond-encrusted gold shoes the next time she whines about the “poor Palestinians.” I’m sure the Palestinians would happily take the more than $55,000 it costs for these ridiculous, garish shoes, in addition to the gazillions in aid they already get from the U.S. and Israel.
Instead, Queen Rania and her hubby–with this shoe purchase and other swanky stuff they constantly buy on the Jordanian Palestinian dime–are telling the Palestinians: Let them eat falafel. And make sure it’s halal.

And correct me if I am wrong, Deb, but don’t our tax dollars prop up this jackal king and his “Palestinian” wife? So aren’t we the taxpayers really buying the shoes for her?
When is the last time any of your readers, or you, spent $55,000 for a pair of shoes?
JEG: Yes. Jordan gets US Aid, which I meant to mention. Thanks for bringing this up. DS
