- Support King Hussein of Jordan lights Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin's cigarette at royal residence in Akaba, shortly after signing the Israel–Jordan peace treaty at Arava border-crossing, 26 October 1994. -- Tomer T (talk) 12:29, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
- Oppose Nothing remarkable in this photo IMO, distracting background. --King of ♥ ♦ ♣ ♠ 22:48, 25 October 2013 (UTC)
- Just explaining why I nominated this and why I think it's so special: this is a photo taken just after the signing on a peace treaty between two enemy countries, Israel and Jordan, and it depicts a special personal moment between the leaders of both countries: Rabin and Hussein. It reflects something unique about the relationship between the two great leaders. Tomer T (talk) 07:15, 26 October 2013 (UTC)
- The moment captured is quite historic and interesting, too. I like the lighting of the cigarette as symbolic of relaxation between the two. The actual quality of the photograph leaves something to be desired, though, especially in the "sharpness"-department. Kleuske (talk) 11:19, 27 October 2013 (UTC)

- Support Nothing remarquable ? A peaceful and friendly meeting between an arab king and an israeli premier ? Wow ! Unsharp ? A 1994 picture ? Wow ! Highest EV and very good quality for the period.--Jebulon (talk) 20:41, 27 October 2013 (UTC)
