The scenario quickly changed when we pulled up to the five-star REGENCY PALACE HOTEL on Queen Alia street in Amman.The entrance echoed a European flavor whit marble,antiques,and fine tapestries.Three royal portraits draped a wall: the late King Hussein,his wife,Queen Noor,and the new King Hassan.You could almost hear them say:<font color="blue">"Ahlan Wa Sahlan"<font color="black">"Welcome to the Hashemite Kingdom of Jordan
