First time I have heard of this ... why were they not evacuated months ago?

[jazusamo]

I read an article a week or so ago that stated they would be arrested if they left the US bases they were on and some were. I haven’t read why the US did not step in and get them out of Kuwait.

These people do not come under the US-Kuwait SOFA. They are not US military or US government employees or the employees of a US contractor working for the US government. They are employed by a firm that is a sub contractor to a non-US entity that has a contract with the US government. Many or most of these people are naturalized US citizens of Arabic origin. Not that that matters. This is a classic example of the kind of scummy, conscienceless behavior that is second nature to Arabs. The sub contractor broke the rice bowl of a very connected Kuwaiti company and those folks proceeded to use what Obamanoids call ‘clout’ in Chicagoland, to try and shake down or destroy the firm that had that sort of temerity. Screwing a bunch of worker bees was just part of the process of showing whose terminal orifice was the blackest.
