June 17,2008:
American diplomats have gone
public with their complaints about Kuwaitis providing large amounts of cash for
Islamic terrorists. For years, complaints were made quietly, to little effect. While
less than a hundred of the 5-10,000 foreign Islamic terrorists in Iraq, have
been Kuwaitis, over five percent of the cash received by the terrorists has
come from Sunni Kuwaitis, who do not like to have the Shia majority running
Iraq. The Kuwaitis have refused to crack down on these wealthy Kuwaitis,
feeling that it would cause too much internal strife. Besides, the money was
only going to kill mostly Iraqis (and some Americans, which is regrettable, but
is why U.S. diplomats are now openly pestering the Kuwaiti government about
this.)
