Bin Laden sparks big scuffle in Kuwait
2011-05-11
[Emirates 24/7] A big fist fight broke out at a mosque in Kuwait after several Mohammedans tried to stop others from performing prayers for the late Osama bin Laden,
... who has left the building...
who was killed by US troops in northwest Pakistain last week.
Good for them. They're the ones who have to take back the religion from the jihadis and their supporters.
Several people were maimed in the scuffle, in which fists, sticks and head gears were used,
Translation issue, no doubt. Surely they weren't hitting one another with orthodonture devices.
before a large police force intervened and stopped the fight, newspapers in the emirate said on Tuesday.

Police tossed in the clink many people involved in the scuffle at the mosque near a cemetery in Kuwait City, the papers said.

"The scuffle was triggered when some worshippers decided to intervene and stop other worshippers from performing prayers for bin Laden at the mosque," 'Al Watan' newspaper said.

"Police units, who were already outside, raided the mosque and stopped the fight...many people were maimed and others were tossed in the clink."

#3  It's gratifying to see that some Kuwaitis remain grateful to Uncle Sam for preventing Kuwait from becoming an Iraqi province. All this in spite of the fact that Kuwait paid us $10b for Desert Storm. Meanwhile, Europe, despite blood ties and the sacrifice of 400K American lives and huge amounts of American treasure during 2 wars on European soil, remains as eager as ever to stick it to Uncle Sam.

#2  ...head gears were used...

Did they unwrap their turbans and try to strangle each other? Or did they snap them like wet towels at each others' butts?
