Yeah, but I wonder where it's going...
I doubt they would send it to the Salvation Army or Red Cross, being that these aren't Mohammedan organizations.
Will the cash go to Mohammedan/Wahhabist "relief" agencies?
Will CAIR type org. now involve itself in the Katrina operations?
Just like the money from Qatar, I would watch where it goes, because they have an agenda.
The Kuwaitis will probably give it straight to the Red Cross (remember, they have their sister organization, the Red Crescent, in the ME) or straight to Washington. Remember, the Kuwaitis are *far* more secular than the Saudis. I don't believe that there were any Kuwaitis among the Sept 11 attack crews and it is extremely, extremely rare to find a Kuwaiti in a terrorist organization. They don't even like the Palestinians.
Take a look at how Kuwait distributes the oil wealth, and you'll see why they have generated no terrorists.
Sounds like they are going to be providing oil as well as humanitarian aid.
Knock it off. I'm sorry--I am usually the last one to scold any fellow Freepers, but your post is as bad as people saying that the war in Iraq is all about oil. Let's not second guess any donations, especially one as generous as that one is.
The Kuwaitis think highly of Bush 41 - as well they should. Perhaps their donation will be to the former Presidents' fund.
Thank you Kuwait.
