I was there for all the invasion period. Yes, there was injustices done by Iraqi "soldiers" to not only Kuwaitis but also expats. And please stop using the 'if you don't like it get out' line every time someone is critical of your country. Free dialogue ultimately means there will be differences of opinion. Kuwait changed after the invasion, it's a fact that any "Arab" expat, mature enough to have witnessed the before and after will tell you. Spartan. I was there for all the invasion period.

It sometimes gets stored away in the 'trash' and reappears. It was taken on an early morning between 6-10th August when we awoke to find the Iraqis had encamped around our buildings in Mahboula, built a chicane and raided the little bacala.....you can barely see the buildings now (Texas Towers I think they were called then ) as they are surrounded by other buildings. Back then, I had a view of the Gulf!!!! I’m sorry folks I can’t find it just now. It sometimes gets stored away in the ‘trash’ and reappears.

They don't know what they are talking about....6ofayleyeen! I am sure that if some of the people that think the invasion was nothing or a mere 7-month occupation have absolutely not been here during those times and I sure that their opinions would be different if they have. @ kuwaitmirage plz share your pic, thanks Wallah ya Spartan some people have never tasted or experienced the horrors of the Iraqi invasion in 1990.
