Kuwait has summoned a top US diplomat in protest over tweets from the American embassy supporting LGBT rights, its foreign ministry says.
US officials there had posted a rainbow flag and message of solidarity from President Joe Biden for Pride month.
But Kuwait officials criticised the embassy for "supporting homosexuality" and demanded it didn't happen again.
Rights for LGBT people are severely restricted in Kuwait and it is illegal there for men to be gay.
In a pair of tweets published in English and Arabic on Thursday, the US Embassy in Kuwait quoted President Biden as saying all humans "should be able to live without fear no matter who they are or whom they love".
The post, published to mark the beginning of Pride Month, appeared with a picture of a rainbow flag symbolising LGBT rights.

Those who are unrepentant and approaching being damned have nothing to be proud of. Not they nor their depraved champions in the culture.
Moreover they, being wrongly associated with Christians because of where they were born, are also those who make regular heathens to curse the Lord and encourage them to remain unrepentant too.

I suppose Kuwait could reciprocate by flying flags on their US embassy denouncing homosexuality. It’s not like we’d have any room to object after the crap we pull with flags on our embassies in their country.

It’s gotten so bad here that we (conservatives) have more in common with the Muslims than the left which is currently destroying this country.
