#1 Sectarian tensions in this predominantly Sunni Gulf state flared after Yasser al-Habeeb, a Shiite who has been living in London since 2004, made disparaging remarks against the Prophet Mohammed's wife, Aisha.

Aisha tended to slobber alot in bed - this is nothing new.

Habeeb, who fled Kuwait to escape ... held a ceremony to celebrate the death anniversary of Aisha at his London office.

Here in Wichita we celebrated her death by handing out free hot dogs to the first 100 child prostitutes who claimed them.

A number of Sunni Islamist MPs threatened they would grill either the prime minister or the interior minister if the government failed to take action.

Which has been brought up with more corn in their diet?

#6 Seems to me it wasn't all that long ago I remember a bunch of Kuwaitis lining the streets as columns of allied troops flew by.

They were happpy to have lived through the occupation and to have survived.

My, what a difference a few years makes.

Perhaps this forgetfulness is a bit premature because Iran is still there.
