Queen Rania of Jordan goes on YouTube

Queen Rania of Jordan recently made her first appearance in youtube. She is trying to educate the world about Muslim culture. She is using this kind of media to take her massage outside of her own country and the Arab Wolrd.http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/middle_east/7524933.stm
