| Kuwaitis 'foiled bid' to sow sectarian divisions, says emir |
| 2015-07-10 |
| [ARABNEWS] The emir of Kuwait said on Thursday his country had thwarted attempts to sow sectarian divisions after last month's suicide kaboom but warned that the world needs to do more to confront the "satanic" behavior of Death Eaters. A Daesh bomber went kaboom!inside a Shiite mosque in the state on June 26, killing 27 people in the worst Death Eater attack in a decade. "You have foiled the desperate attempt and satanic attitudes of the plotters and perpetrators of this condemned crime to inflame divisions and stir sectarian tensions and divide the unity of the Kuwaiti society," Sheikh Sabah Al-Ahmed Al-Sabah told Kuwaitis in a Ramadan message aired on state television ... and if you can't believe state television who can you believe? . "The international community should exert all their effort to avert and take legal action to dry up from its waters so countries and nations live in peace and security." Up to 30 percent of Kuwait's 1.4 million citizens are Shiites, who have enjoyed relatively good relations with the country's majority Sunnis. "We believe that Kuwait is for all its citizens and not for one party or sect," Sheikh Sabah said. "All live on its earth and ally themselves to its identity. "We need to remember that our country has stable democratic roots that are inherited by the Kuwaiti people. Everybody has the right of speech and we are proud of our legislation that we agreed on. It's our pride," he added. |
