Well, we will say it today more frankly than ever before, after the scene that we witnessed as Jordanians at the wedding of the Crown Prince, and it is a scene associated with deep and certain implications that have become a reality today, even if some try to circumvent them.
There is no good in us at all if we do not say it now and with the same depth and out of the way of lighting candles instead of cursing the darkness, and there is no good in them - and we mean the people - if they do not hear it.
I met personally, and before the wedding, of course, many national personalities who were conveyed to me, and that is a “trust” that I convey to people today, that rule that was mentioned by the Crown Prince himself during attempts to clash and touch on national needs and problems, as the young prince used to say with balanced vitality that “what should be done now is Focusing on achieving what can be achieved and leaving the difficult little to an advanced stage.
We applaud this deep logical saying instead of getting carried away in sterile debate. Let's talk frankly about the history of a new stage in the post-wedding period, so that we can ask openly, well, what can be accomplished now?
We accept the idea, as citizens, observers, political activists and media professionals, the idea of postponing what is not possible now or is difficult or a little complicated to an advanced stage, but we must define what is possible now.
I will try to dedicate this article to answering this question, and what I suggest is that we advance together to determine what is possible now and not tomorrow, with a simple political decision that does not require a lot of philosophy, thinking, hesitation, or recklessness, because the wedding proved to us the incurable disease, which is a “crisis of decision” and not management.
It is possible today, as a matter of recipes, to form the National Security Council, which has entered the political reality and has not yet functioned according to a constitutional amendment. Immediately after the formation of the National Security Council, the concerns, interests, needs, and even the agenda of the security structure in the country were transmitted to and through it.
Is this possible? Of course, this is possible and may be necessary now, and it does not require more than one decision, then we rely on God.
It is very possible and quickly to make a decision for the first time to organize very clean elections, not to say very fair.
We are talking here about the upcoming elections in 2024, and all of us, as Jordanians, have a little more than a year of spare time, so that we can prepare for elections in which we will try the idea of clean elections, from which the people, the system and the state benefit together in any case.

Between today's possibilities, and with a reference and central decision, stopping all bidding against simple citizens and the Jordanian people and their social components, especially in the part related to claiming loyalty more than the simple and questioning the public, and stopping bidding against the citizen, may be a necessary step at this stage.
Of course, it is always and immediately possible to get rid of the idea that the Jordanian administration is “out of luck” and that it is collapsing and not just regressing, and cannot be reformed. Direct and forthright to fix what can be fixed.
And the amazing latent administrative power that shocked us as Jordanians recently with very disciplined arrangements at the Crown Prince’s wedding indicates the strengths. The idea was Jordanian and the implementation was carried out with Jordanian hands.
This means that the cadres are present and the ideas are present and will be produced if they are free to and imagine.
Thus, of course and certainly, instead of practicing a state of national slapping, it is possible to work to save what is left of the administration by returning immediately to competencies away from the classic canners that try to please everyone but anger the entire people by declining performance and also to stop seeking help from “those who do not respect the intelligence of the people.”
It is possible, of course, to dust off those documents or some of those strategic documents that were placed by consultants whose job is promotion on the reserve shelf, and we are talking here exclusively about documents of a technical nature, one of which is related to the reform of the national media scene, and another related to food and national security and food processing, and the third is known to its owners It is related to how to solve the problem of treatment and medicines and their prices in the country, where pure and pure Jordanian experiences are devoted to God, the country and the institution. They put ideas and proposals and those ideas and proposals are still in the refrigerator and can be dusted off with a simple administrative decision.
It is also possible to immediately stop interfering with political parties, stop interfering with press institutions, and stop the bulldozing of trade institutions.
Syndicates and parties are houses of expertise and the result of their intertwining within a disciplined process according to a legal procedure, from which the country, the state and the citizen benefit together, and a free, independent and professional press is added to it.
In short, these steps are needed now and with urgency.
It is neither logical nor reasonable nor acceptable for a phone to come out to us to say that steps are not possible or difficult or that can be postponed. These steps are very possible, not even very possible, quickly, and yesterday before today or tomorrow.
