Question: Where is the birthplace of the creator of paintings named for the country the Ministry of Defense is located in?

<P0-S0> Kuwait is a group of approximately 40 paintings made by Nabil Kanso in 1990-91 on the Gulf War and Iraq’s invasion of Kuwait. <P0-S1> The works in the series were first exhibited in Kuwait in March – April 1992 at the Free Atelier Art Center and traveled in June to Caracas for a special exhibit at the Palacio de Gobierno in honor of the Emir of Kuwait’s visit to Venezuela. <P0-S2> Then, the exhibition proceeded to Geneva and was held at the Red Cross Museum in July – August 1992. <SEP> <P1-S0> the idea for the wolf was born from the need of transporting soldiers safely during missions in an urban environment, and in peacekeeping missions. <P1-S1> recently the israeli ministry of defense ordered 150 wolf armoured vehicles from rafael advanced defense systems and an order for carmor, for some to be used in urban combat. <P1-S2> this is currently in production. <P1-S3> the vehicle's first reported use was by the israel defense forces in operation bringing home the goods on 14 march 2006. <SEP> <P2-S0> Place des Martyres is the title of a series of over 250 watercolors and drawings executed in New York and Beirut between 1971 and 1974 by Nabil Kanso. <P2-S1> The subjects of the works in the series are based on the women headquartered in the red-light district of Beirut city center called el Bourj, and after World War I named Place des Martyrs French for Martyrs’ Place in memory of dozens of Arab nationalists who were hanged in 1915-16 during Ottoman rule. <SEP> <P3-S0> a government report covered by the guardian in 2002 indicates that between 1940 and 1979, the ministry of defence "turned large parts of the country into a giant laboratory to conduct a series of secret germ warfare tests on the public" and many of these tests "involved releasing potentially dangerous chemicals and micro-organisms over vast swaths of the population without the public being told." <P3-S1> the ministry of defence claims that these trials were to simulate germ warfare and that the tests were harmless. <P3-S2> still, families who have been in the area of many of the tests are experiencing children with birth defects and physical and mental handicaps and many are asking for a public inquiry. <P3-S3> according to the report these tests affected estimated millions of people including one period between 1961 and 1968 where "more than a million people along the south coast of england, from torquay to the new forest, were exposed to bacteria including e.coli and bacillus globigii, which mimics anthrax." <P3-S4> two scientists commissioned by the ministry of defence stated that these trials posed no risk to the public. <P3-S5> this was confirmed by sue ellison, a representative of porton down who said that the results from these trials "will save lives, should the country or our forces face an attack by chemical and biological weapons." <P3-S6> asked whether such tests are still being carried out, she said: "it is not our policy to discuss ongoing research." <P3-S7> it is unknown whether or not the harmlessness of the trials was known at the time of their occurrence. <SEP> <P4-S0> The Kuwait Ministry of Defense (Arabic: وزارة الدفاع الكويتية) is one of the governmental bodies of Kuwait. <P4-S1> Its minister in charge is a member of the Cabinet of Kuwait. <P4-S2> The current minister of defense is Sheikh Nasser Sabah Al-Ahmad Al-Sabah, the current ruler's eldest son.
