His Majesty King Abdullah will appear on CNN this Sunday in an exclusive interview on “Fareed Zakaria GPS”.

King Abdullah will speak about regional developments, especially the fight against Daesh terror group.

In an interview promo released by CNN earlier on Friday, Zakaria asked His Majesty to describe his reaction after watching the video of the brutal killing of Jordanian air force pilot Moath Kasasbeh.

The King answered “in actual fact, I didn’t see the video, and many of us refuse to see what I think is propaganda.”

His Majesty continued, “Disgust; sadness to the family; I had met the family on many occasions. My heart went out to the father, the mother, the brothers and sisters, his wife — they had only been married for five months; anger, as a son of the Arab Army, the Jordanian Armed Forces, Muath, God bless his soul, is a brother in arms. And so I think all Jordanian soldiers, past and present, were angered and disgusted by the brutality of what Muath was put through.”

The King stressed that “if Daesh tried to intimidate Jordanians, I think they just had the reverse effect. If you look at our history, we have always punched way above our weight. I think Daesh has now got a tiger by the tail. It has just motivated Jordanians to rally around the flag and the gloves have come off.”
