Not entirely, but, it provides a damn sight more freedom than you'll find in 
any other Arab state.

Yes, when their "brothers and sisters" who they have supported morally and
financially for decades respond to their calls for help with jeers against
them and cheers for the man who is brutally raping, pillaging, and massacring
the state of Kuwait and its people.  Yes, when they are coldly betrayed by the 
people they helped the most.  Yes, when they have spent billions more on poverty 
and development in the Arab and Muslim world (as I and others have documented 
extensively here and as they are currently doing in Somalia and 
Bosnia-Hercegovina) and morons like you insist on repeating complete distortions 
and lies about their record.

With friends like this, !YES!, Kuwait sought outside help.

You are a liar, Anisa.  Until you provide some proof or evidence or 
documentation of your claims that Kuwaitis are all greedy and haven't 
given anything to the Arab or Muslim world, you will remain a liar.

I have not posted extensively about Algeria, certainly not enough for you
to make another of your simplistic and juvenile analysis about my 
thoughts on the matter.

I haven't made *any* comment on the Middle East Peace talks since your
ridiculous tirades against Kuwaitis.  From then on, I have had no interest 
in the Peace talks other than to assure a guarantee of peace for Kuwait 
from its foes (and 'friends'), just as you have no interest in anyone
else's well being but your own.

Are we talking about ourselves?  Sounds like it fits you perfectly.
