Kuwaiti MPs call for severing ties with Syria

Al-Jazeera has reported that 25 Kuwaiti MPs , mostly from the opposition have demanded the expulsion of the Syrian ambassador to Kuwait and the severing of diplomatic ties with Damascus.

Major General Bassam Abdel Majeed ( pictured) is the current Syrian ambassador to Kuwait. He also served as the interior minister of Syria between 2006 and 2009.

The 25 MPs represent 50 % of the Kuwaiti parliament membership.

The 25 MPs, denounced the “massacre” in Syria where the regime has repressed “peaceful demonstrations of the Syrian people defending their legitimate rights to liberty and justice,”

“We will take further steps to support the resisting people [of Syria] and we will work on isolating this regime internationally,” Kuwaiti MP Walid al-Tabtabaie told reporters on Tuesday.

The Kuwait MPs action came after Syria denied entry to a Kuwaiti humanitarian aid convoy sent to Syria’s southern city of Daraa, the flashpoint of the uprising against the Syrian regime

        michael, you’re wrong buddy. I was very critical of bahrain’s deeds against shias as they are the majority in that country.  
        I’m a londoner of lebanese origin, I have syrian friends here in the uk who have told me first hand about the atrocities going on in syria. one of my friends has had two cousins killed so far, neither of whom was armed.

        I’m a man of principals michael, and even if my own family go against my principals, then I’ll be critical.

        Yup Michael I say the same and I mentioned BRING ALL DICTATORS DOWN (That meant the dictatorships of Bahrain, Saudi, and Iran alike).

    Avnerouchlemanouch ,

    Whn you recognize palestinans as humans talk to me…until than i have nothing else to say to u,

    go back to your raping,murdering,and occupying the land you stole….

      Really ,isn’t that what you call lying…..So i will keep on breathing and living while I resist you with everything I have..;what your people did to us in 1948 in the Arab states will not happen again…NEVER AGAIN!!!Talking about humans,i will defend my house lands and families as long as morons like you open up to the idea of negotiations…The Israeli army is the children of the  Jewish resistance against Hitler in Europe ,with all our sad Jewish history we are free in our lands that we bought or already have…I am not afraid of your wars. You have no moral ground…Israel will not be extinct I promise you.
