		<description>In any case Keep it Up Mark. I come from a mixed background and understand both sides dilemmas. 

For one thing, i don&#039;t like visiting 248am to see clashes.</description>

		<description>I for one have lived in Kuwait for 30 years and count it more of my home then Lebanon or Canada. Just because I don&#039;t have the Kuwaiti passport doesn&#039;t mean I count Kuwait less of my home.</description>

		<description>Mubarek, i used to say the same things u said..about how some expats are kuwaitis at heart, untill i realized that alot of expats take that comment as an insult..not only expats, people who were expats and now are kuwaiti citizens dont recognize any sort of affiliation to this land at all and they actually cuss it out day and night...i just thought id give u heads up and not leave u completely susceptible to a rude awakening by the reality of the society..</description>

		<description>Thanks Mubarek for your comments. You are right I do know what kind of responses to expect most of the time when I post but there are also a lot of times when I expect one kind of response and get a completely different one.</description>

		<description>Mark. I&#039;ve been following your blog for sometime now and enjoy reading it on a daily basis. I don&#039;t mind (i don&#039;t mind) when you write these kind of blogs about Kuwait. I for a fact i believe you and so many expatriates in Kuwait are Kuwaitis as much as myself and so many others.

 You&#039;ve been doing it for a while now and i must admit that it&#039;s very obvious that you know when you&#039;re typing the blog what kind of responses, comments and emails you&#039;ll be getting back. You are very smart and witty. Stop enticing people to attack you.</description>

		<description>Just because some people breaking them that doesn&#039;t give you the right to disregard them. In your country you&#039;d be too afraid to break the rules... I don&#039;t see why there should be any exception in here. This lack of disrespect of American being shown to us has to stop.</description>
