#OneKuwait Standing Firm and United

























A heinous sectarian attack on 2000 Muslim worshippers killing 25 at Friday prayer in a Shia mosque in Kuwait City today leaves me, and many, humbled and proud of the response, unity and compassion shown by the Kuwaitis.

The mosque's CCTV cameras identified the suicide bomber, it seems authorities quickly apprehended the driver of a gold coloured four-wheel drive car with Saudi plates that had allegedly dropped off the bomber (though I haven't seem this verified but plenty of chatter about it), HH the Amir and ministers visited the scene and called for an emergency meeting, 1000s turned up to donate blood for the 200 injured and the Kuwaitis unanimously united in their rejection of ISIS and their evil attack and carnage intended to cause a rift among them.

Respect.








 

Explosion at Shia Mosque in Kuwait During Fridays Prayers 27 Dead, Man Decapitated in France, 120 Killed in ISIS Attack in Kobane, 19 Killed in Terrorist Attack inTunisia

A terrible day.
Our condolences to their families at this difficult time. May they rest in peace away from this crazy mucked up world.

Kuwait Passes New Cyber Law

Kuwait’s parliament has passed legislation providing a 10 year jail term for those who provide online assistance to terror groups or commit money laundering.
The legislation covers all online activity, including social media.
The minimum sentence would be six months’ jail and a fine of up to KD2,000 ($6620) for those who illegally use computers that belong to others.
The most significant penalty – 10 years in jail and a fine of between KD20,000 and KD50,000 – would apply to those who set up a website for terror groups or publish news about them that could be used for raising donations, Kuwait Times said.
It also applies to those who launder money or publish methods for manufacturing explosives.
Justice Minister Yacoub Al Sane said the legislation was similar to that in most European countries and filled a void presently in Kuwaiti law.
The legislation comes as the region faces the threat of ISIL and other domestic terror organisations, including several fatal attacks on mosques in neighbouring Saudi Arabia in the past week.

Veet Hair Removal Cream For Men - Bewarned! Hilarious Review.

 























The most hilarious review left on Amazon.com

Veet Hair Removal Cream for Men -

After having been told my danglies looked like an elderly Rastafarian I decided to take the plunge and buy some of this as previous shaving attempts had only been mildly successful and I nearly put my back out trying to reach the more difficult bits. Being a bit of a romantic I thought I would do the deed on the missus's birthday as a bit if a treat.
I ordered it well in advance and working in the North Sea I considered myself a bit above some of the characters writing the previous reviews and wrote them off as soft office types...Oh my fellow sufferers how wrong I was. I waited until the other half was tucked up in bed and after giving some vague hints about a special surprise I went down to the bathroom. Initially all went well and I applied the gel and stood waiting for something to happen. I didn’t have long to wait.
At first there was a gentle warmth which in a matter of seconds was replaced by an intense burning and a feeling I can only describe as like being given a barbed wire wedgie by two people intent on hitting the ceiling with my head. Religion hadn't featured much in my life until that night but I suddenly became willing to convert to any religion to stop the violent burning around the turd tunnel and what seemed like the the destruction of the meat and two veg. Struggling not to bite through my bottom lip I tried to wash the gel off in the sink and only succeeded in blocking the plughole with a mat of hair. Through the haze of tears I struggled out of the bathroom across the hall into the kitchen, by this time walking was not really possible and I crawled the final yard to the fridge in the hope of some form of cold relief. I yanked the freezer drawer out and found a tub of ice cream, tore the lid off and positioned it under me. The relief was fantastic but only temporary as it melted fairly quickly and the fiery stabbing returned. Due to the shape of the ice cream tub I hadn’t managed to give the starfish any treatment and I groped around in the draw for something else as I was sure my vision was going to fail fairly soon. I grabbed a bag of what I later found out was frozen sprouts and tore it open trying to be quiet as I did so. I took a handful of them and an tried in vain to clench some between the cheeks of my arse. This was not doing the trick as some of the gel had found its way up the chutney channel and it felt like the space shuttle was running its engines behind me.
This was probably and hopefully the only time in my life I was going to wish there was a gay snowman in the kitchen which should give you some idea of the depths I was willing to sink to in order to ease the pain. The only solution my pain crazed mind could come up with was to gently ease one of the sprouts where no veg had gone before.
Unfortunately, alerted by the strange grunts coming from the kitchen the other half chose that moment to come and investigate and was greeted by the sight of me, arse in the air, strawberry ice cream dripping from my bell end pushing a sprout up my arse while muttering “Ooooohhh that feels good.” Understandably this was a shock to her and she let out a scream and as I hadn’t heard her come in it caused an involuntary spasm of shock in myself which resulted in the sprout being ejected at quite some speed in her direction. I can understand that having a sprout fired against your leg at 11 at night in the kitchen probably wasn’t the special surprise she was expecting and having to explain to the kids the next day what the strange hollow in the ice cream was didn’t improve my status…so to sum it up, VEET removes hair, dignity and self-respect ~ Cerys
