I'M SURE THE KUWAITIS WOULD DISAGREE!!! AMERICA USED TO BE UNDER BRITISH RULE....DOES THAT MEAN THAT ALL OF OUR RESOURCES BELONG TO THE BRITISH??? THAT LOGIC IS SERIOUSLY FLAWED.

She didn't tell us anything strange. She didn't tell us in the sense that we concluded that the Americans will not retaliate. That was nonsense you see. It was nonsense to think that the Americans would not attack us. In the early hours of the 2nd of August, the whole apparatus of the leadership took precautions for an American speedy immediate retaliation.
Not only that, but the day after the invasion the UN security council made a resolution condemning the invasion. If the US didn't care we wouldn't have made the resolution.

Somewhat ironic that the KUWAITI's of all people would hold that opinion,being that if not for us,Saddam would still be ruling them and plundering their country.Strange.
Kuwait bought US armed forces. They poured millions into PR to convince Americans that Saddam had done horrible things (ripping babies from incubators). When we got there, no proof of any of the alleged attrocities. The vast majority of citizens waited out the exile in comfort while Americans did the job of getting them their country back.
For all the promises of reform, I've heard very little has changed since then.
I know Kayne, but how the hell do they get wealthy from all that oil---BY SELLING IT TO THE AMERICANS, who are by far their number one customer. If America stopped purchasing oil from Kuwait entirely, that country would go down the shitter.
