169995 Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 Surely this is what USA fought for ,to enable a free expression of views and in the end a true democracy. This must be uppermost in Obamas mind as he withdraws US forces from Iraq to Kuwait and he will obviously rejoice ! Quote

Charlie The Tramp Returns Posted November 16, 2011 Posted November 16, 2011 There will be no Arab Spring in Kuwait as the Arabs are tired of Springs, they now prefer Arab Summers. Watch as Libya degenerates into an Arab Winter. The response from Dave will be interesting. Dear Libyan Transitional Council you owe us £2 billion the cost of helping you out, failure to pay and the Tornados will be sent in. Lots of Love, Dave. Quote
