Question: Who claimed a homeland in parts of Turkey, Iran, and the country that invaded the nation where most expats are religious?

<P0-S0> Islam is the official religion in Kuwait, and the majority of the citizen population are Muslim. <P0-S1> There are also small native Christian and Bahá'í populations. <P0-S2> Most expatriates in Kuwait are Muslim, Hindu, Christian or Buddhist. <SEP> <P1-S0> Although there were human rights abuses committed in Kuwait by the invading Iraqi military, the alleged incidents that received the most publicity in the US were fabrications of the public relations firm hired by the government of Kuwait to influence US opinion in favor of military intervention. <P1-S1> Shortly after Iraq's invasion of Kuwait, the organization Citizens for a Free Kuwait was formed in the US. <P1-S2> It hired the public relations firm Hill & Knowlton for about $11 million, paid by Kuwait's government.Among many other means of influencing US opinion, such as distributing books on Iraqi atrocities to US soldiers deployed in the region, "Free Kuwait" T-shirts and speakers to college campuses, and dozens of video news releases to television stations, the firm arranged for an appearance before a group of members of the US Congress in which a young woman identifying herself as a nurse working in the Kuwait City hospital described Iraqi soldiers pulling babies out of incubators and letting them die on the floor.The story helped tip both the public and Congress towards a war with Iraq: six Congressmen said the testimony was enough for them to support military action against Iraq and seven Senators referenced the testimony in debate. <P1-S3> The Senate supported the military actions in a 52–47 vote. <P1-S4> However, a year after the war, this allegation was revealed to be a fabrication. <P1-S5> The young woman who had testified was found to be a member of Kuwait's Royal Family, in fact the daughter of Kuwait's ambassador to the US. <P1-S6> She hadn't lived in Kuwait during the Iraqi invasion. <SEP> <P2-S0> political and religious animosity against jehovah's witnesses has at times led to mob action and government oppression in various countries. <P2-S1> their doctrine of political neutrality and their refusal to serve in the military has led to imprisonment of members who refused conscription during world war ii and at other times where national service has been compulsory. <P2-S2> in 1933, there were approximately 20,000 jehovah's witnesses in germany, of whom about 10,000 were later imprisoned. <P2-S3> of those, 2000 were sent to nazi concentration camps, where they were identified by purple triangles; as many as 1200 died, including 250 who were executed. <P2-S4> in canada, jehovah's witnesses were interned in camps along with political dissidents and people of chinese and japanese descent. <P2-S5> in the former soviet union, about 9,300 jehovah's witnesses were deported to siberia as part of operation north in april 1951. their religious activities are currently banned or restricted in some countries, including china, vietnam and some islamic states. <SEP> <P3-S0> by 1940 the third reich had occupied many of the alpine countries. <P3-S1> austria underwent a political coup that made it part of the third reich; france had been invaded and italy was a fascist regime. <P3-S2> switzerland was the only country to luckily avoid invasion. <P3-S3> the swiss confederate mobilized its troops—the country follows the doctrine of "armed neutrality" with all males required to have military training—a number that general eisenhower estimated to be about 850,000. the swiss commanders wired the infrastructure leading into the country, and threatening to destroy bridges, railway tunnels and passes in the event of a nazi invasion, and then they retreated to the heart of the mountain peaks where conditions were harsher and a military invasion would involve difficult and protracted battles. <SEP> <P4-S0> Kurdistan (/ ˌkɜːrdɪˈstæn, ˈstɑːn /; Kurdish: کوردستان ‎ (ˌkʊɾdɯˈstɑːn) (listen); lit. <P4-S1> ``homeland of the Kurds '') or Greater Kurdistan is a roughly defined geo - cultural historical region wherein the Kurdish people form a prominent majority population and Kurdish culture, languages and national identity have historically been based. <P4-S2> Kurdistan roughly encompasses the northwestern Zagros and the eastern Taurus mountain ranges. <P4-S3> The territory corresponds to Kurdish irredentist claims.
