Hope it's the start of a trend and not just wishful thinking.

There have been articles like this in the Arab press from time to time, but they are immediately drowned out by the likes of Al-Jeezera and/or out-of-controls imams who like to issue fatwas on decent people calling for some hard looks in the mirror.

Well, it is Kuwait.

They are about our only open supporters in the Arab World.

Does anyone else remember the Iraqi ambassador to that Arab conference standing and screaming at the Kuwaitis: "You monkeys!"? - Among much else.

That was right before we invaded, and I'll never forget the way that Kuwaiti sheik sat there and laughed at him.

I still believe that he was thinking, "That's fine, soon you will be dead."
