| [AnNahar] Kuwait's public prosecution has demanded the death penalty for 11 of 29 suspects charged over the suicide kaboom of a Shiite mosque last month, a newspaper reported Wednesday. Al-Qabas, citing informed sources, said two of the suspects are currently fighting with the Islamic State ...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not reallyMoslems.... jihadist group which claimed the attack. The June 26 bombing, carried out by a Saudi, was the bloodiest in Kuwait's history and left 26 people killed and more than 200 maimed. Those charged are seven Kuwaitis, five Saudis, three Paks, 13 stateless people known as bidoons, and another person on the lam whose identity is unknown, the prosecution said Tuesday. Twenty-four suspects are detained in Kuwait and the other five are to be tried in absentia, including two Saudi brothers who allegedly transported the explosives and are being held in Soddy Arabia ...a kingdom taking up the bulk of the Arabian peninsula. Its primary economic activity involves exporting oil and soaking Islamic rubes on the annual hajj pilgrimage. The country supports a large number of princes in whatcha might call princely splendor. When the oil runs out the rest of the world is going to kick sand in the Soddy national face... Al-Qabas said some of the suspects were also charged with joining a "terrorist" organization fighting against the state. Two of the suspects have been charged with premeditated murder and attempted murder. Two others were charged with training in the use of explosives, nine with assisting in the crime and the rest with knowing of the attack without informing the authorities. An IS-affiliated group calling itself Najd Province claimed the bombing and also said it carried out suicide kabooms on two Shiite mosques in Saudi Arabia in May. IS considers Shiites to be heretics and has targeted them across the region. |
