MEMRI has just released a translation of an article that appeared in the Kuwaiti government daily, Al Anba.  Wrote journalist Saleh Al-Shayeji,  MEMRI’s summary:

“Al-Shayeji called on the Arab countries to abandon ‘the delusion of the single [Arab] nation’ and pursue their own individual interests. As part of this, he said, they must stop seeing Israel as an enemy just because of its conflict with the Palestinians. He wondered why Kuwait sees Israel as an enemy even though Israel never invaded or fought it, while it sees Iraq – which did invade and occupy it – as an ally and a sister-state.”
