I've been receiving several text messages announcing a demonstration on the Gulf Road (Kuwait's main drag along the waterfront) against all the countries who have been attacking Kuwait since the war started. Much as the demonstrations in the Arab world attacking us have upset me, I sincerely hope we don't sink to their level. We do, however, need to put out point across and I hope enough people read these guidelines before the demonstration if it goes ahead:
1. Banners should call for the liberation of the Iraqi people and denounce the tyranny of Saddam. See if we can get our hands on an old pre-1990 Iraqi flag.
2. Attack those countries' citizens for supporting Saddam. I know they're not, but it'll give them a good shaking.
3. Copy some of the popular short Saddam jokes making the rounds on SMS onto the banners. Insult the bastard!
4. For the love of God, PLEASE don't fly any American or British flags. It'll just make things worse!
