I think one should tell these people who say:

"Even members of the Kuwaiti government openly criticized the U.S. bombing campaign. Dr. Nasser Al Sane, who heads the Kuwaiti-American friendship committee and is a member of the Kuwaiti Parliament, persuaded half his colleagues in the parliament to condemn the bombing.

He told Wallace, "To kill the entire country to try and find a single person and his network, that is not the right way…Under any religion…any rules, this is not acceptable.”


I guess it was OK, for the U.S and the covilized world to "kill the entire country" of Iraq when the Kuwaities were being defended, (and in particular this particular gentleman's ass from ending up being executed at the hands of Saddam's thugs), but it is NOT ok now to go after thugs and murderers who have inflicted atrocities against the U.S, hiding in Afghanistan?

Incidentally have these Arabs been watching their T.Vs as how Afghanis are happy and thankful to the U.S for getting rid of the Talibans for them (sort of like how Kuwaities were thankful to the U.S for getting rid of Iraqies from their land)? But wy should they? Most of the Talbians are composed of Arabs (i.e. Non Afghans), and by eliminating them Arabs may feel having less real estate to claim for!!

It truly makes me sad and disgusted to the point of throwing up as how these people view the world and are so arrogantly self-centered, and self-rightous.

Strange for Kuwaiti to have that opinion. They have quite a short memory of what they did to Palestinians within their borders during their conflict with Iraq. Not a single Kuwait born "Palstinian" was granted Kuwaiti citizenship (unless he could show through the male line a Kuwaiti ancestor before 1913), however, Kuwaiti Jews that ended up in Israel after 1948, were granted that simple right.
