They were wealthy, and ignored their poor brethren, who in turn turned on them and supported Saddam Hussein's invasion.

Those "poor brethren" were mostly Palestinians. When Kwuatis got their country back after the Gulf War, they deported most of them.

Yes, but the greater point is they were still the Kuwaiti's brethren in that they are all Muslims, and Islam enjoins charity. The same principle of dispersing while accumulating applies across borders or within borders and across nationalities.
