Two Kuwaiti Shia Muslim lawmakers have called on the interior minister and security officials to protect a Shia mosque that came under attack by a mob of teenagers. The attack took place on the night of October 7 in Jahra, 40 kilometers (25 miles) west of Kuwait City, when at least 50 people, mostly teenagers, burned a car outside the mosque and pelted worshipers with stones.

    I suppose that the silence of the officials means they’re happy with the situation.. Didn’t hear any condemnation so far!
