People without a clear vision   

Kuwait Times - 28 May, 2012
Author: Mufarrej Al-Dossari

Musallam Al-Barrak and (his populist and dreaming prime minister) Abdelrahman Al-Anjari do not want to hold Al-Shamali accountable for corruption issues at all, because they well know that this man did not commit a sin. They want to settle personal issues with him because he does not submit to them, and has piercing answers when one of them goes overboard. This does not suit those two, as they want ministers who do not reply when they are insulted and sworn at. They want MPs who smile when they are belittled!

This is the way they want to deal with those who were honored with the confidence of the political leadership, with arrogance and pride. They want to settle accounts with anyone who does not bow to their authority, even if he did not make a mistake.
As for Al-Tahous, there will not be a comment until he gets free from his restrictions.

The rock solid stand by His Highness the Prime Minister, Sheikh Jaber Al-Mubarak, in the face of the Majority’s arrogance strengthened the government’s clout and projected it in the honorable image it should have. This is a matter which calls for praise, because it is not realistic and not acceptable for Speaker Ahmad Al-Saadoun to ignore the views of the government and its objection to merge both grilling motions, then call for a vote without having a decisive stance to its credit.

The stray Majority is seeking the dissolution of the National Assembly using all means, and exerts all efforts to reach that goal. Do you know why? Because it is a Majority that does not have a national rescue project, and does not have a clear plan, and does not have credibility in eradicating corruption as it claims.

Most of its members are not able to appear as statesmen or at least semi politicians who have the vision, or at least be aware of what they are doing, so it is not strange for them to hold screaming parties to escape from facing disappointed Kuwaiti citizens.

The people have started to realize that it will not fulfill its promises, and have begun to reject its despised practices. The Majority can only live and scream, and the achievements of some of its members is only the ability to gather crowds and swear at phantom adversaries! — Al-Watan
