AMMAN — Monday marks the 51st anniversary of the death of former prime minister Wasfi Tal. Born in 1920, Tal was appointed prime minister three times — in 1962, 1965 and 1970. One of the most popular figures in Jordan’s history, Tal was assassinated in Cairo while attending a meeting of the Arab joint defence council.
