On the twenty-first of March in 1968, the heroes of the Jordanian Arab Army etched one of the greatest pages of glory in the history of the nation in the Battle of Karameh, a battle that was not just a military confrontation but a historical stance that restored the nation's confidence in itself and proved that solid will is capable of achieving victory.
On that day, the soldiers of the Jordanian Arab Army stood courageously and steadfastly against aggression, defending the land of Jordan and the dignity of the nation, their resilience and heroism sending a clear message that this land cannot be taken as long as it has men who believe in their country and sacrifice for it.
The Battle of Karameh was a day of dignity for Jordan and a day of dignity for all Arabs; a day where heads were held high and confidence returned to the hearts of millions, confirming to all that the nation is capable of rising again no matter how severe the challenges.
And in a moment that will remain immortal in the memory of the nation, the voice of the hero Mashhour Haditha Al-Jazy thundered as he screamed to mark the target, declaring that the nation's dignity is more precious than life and that sacrificing for Jordan is an honor unmatched by any other, and those words were a summary of the true meaning of heroism when a soldier chooses to sacrifice his life to protect the soil of the homeland.
Today, we proudly remember the souls of the martyrs who watered the land of Jordan with their pure blood, and we salute every fighter who participated in that immortal battle; they were examples of courage and sacrifice, and their contributions will remain a badge of honor in the history of Jordan and the Arab nation.
The Jordanian Arab Army will remain the strong shield and the unbreakable sword of the nation, and the dignity will remain an immortal memory that teaches generations that dignity is preserved through faith, unity, and sacrifice, and that Jordan will remain strong, defiant against anyone who attempts to undermine its esteem and dignity.
