Oh good - the Kuwaitis think the cost of the war in Iraq is worth it
Edited on Sun May-22-05 12:13 PM by FLDem5
well, I feel better now. Al-Sabah is on with Wolf Blitzer now.

Kuwait has no ties to us, so they must be speaking from the heart and not from influence, right?

Now I can sleep at night.

1. Was wondering the other day if they were back to their old tricks of
slant drilling the oil under Iraq. Yeah, I bet they think the cost of the war is worth it; they aren't paying it and they get all sorts of benefits.

They were stealing his nation's resources, which was the reason Saddam invaded them in the first place. Gee, it was OK then and it seems OK now too. Once again, thanks to a bush planted in the WH

2. So it's okay for our pets to do illegal things...

its even encouraged (wink, wink), but watch out if those vicious strays get uppity about their rights.

Our foreign policy in a nutshell - got it.

7. We don't just let our 'pets' get away with illegal stuff,
we let them use the lives of our military personnel to cover their backs as they hide from legitimate consequences of doing illegal stuff.

Oh, but their women FINALLY got the vote.

5. Al-Sabah thinks it was worth it - not the Kuwaiti's
we don't know what the Kuwaiti's think.
