Kuwait: Lightweight Ingrates -- Where Is Their Oil Help Now?
Remember with me back in the Fall of 1990, Saddam Hussein invaded the tiny, weak, corrupt, spoiled, oil-rich nation of Kuwait.
George Bush I ordered our troops over there, where they -- along with soldiers sent by an impressive array of allied countries -- drove Saddam's troops out of Kuwait in early 1991.
While Saddam's troops occupied Kuwait, they murdered, raped, robbed, and pillaged their weak, rich, helpless Kuwaiti neighbors.
One would think that -- although we (driven by our need for oil) no doubt had a selfish angle for the entire venture -- that the ruling elite of Kuwait would -- to this day -- have a grateful spot in their hearts for the United States, without whose efforts in 1990-91, most of these current Kuwaiti elites would not only be out of power, but also dead.
Well, let us turn now to the case of the case of an exceedingly galling article authored by the current director of the Kuwaiti Ministry of Endowment's research center, one Muhammad Yousef Al-Mlaifi, who entitles his article as follows: "The Terrorist Katrina is One of the Soldiers of Allah, But Not an Adherent of Al-Qaeda."
This perfect idiot, who would likely be dead (or in hard servitude) were it not for the United States' intervention some 15 years ago, actually has no qualms about attributing our latest major calamity to a vengeful "Allah" who "will keep striking the unbelievers for what they have done".
As Michael Savage has said on his radio show for the past two days, oil-rich nations whom we have in the past helped out (e.g., Kuwait, Mexico, and Saudi Arabia) should in our current time of crisis be DONATING MILLIONS of BARRELS of oil to the United States. Needless to say, they are not even donating a single barrel of petroleum.
Rather, the third-rate countries are enjoying our misfortune (after we have saved them from invasion, as in the case of Kuwait and Saudi Arabia; or after we have been a safety valve for their unemployed masses, as in the case of Mexico).
