I stick to the opinion

We are in the first two decades of the 21st century, yet the fundamentalists of our time have increased and expanded in Kuwait. This also happened in Afghanistan recently, and earlier in Iraq and Syria, when the Americans and those who follow the brothers released the bloody and expiatory regime of ISIS.
In Kuwait, we are now witnessing the influence of our fundamentalists. I mean the Salafists and Muslim Brotherhood, because our rationalists gave them the fundamentalists of the ‘Guardianship of Faqih (Wilayat Al-Faqih)’ and ‘Hezbollah’. This move was aimed at satisfying the Salafists and Muslim Brotherhood.
They accept the rational government by remaining silent for one day and shouting for 10 days in the seminars and through their children in the councils of the nation’s tragedies — majority of whom are fundamentalists whose ignorance has been in our chests for years.
The clearest proof of this is our young Minister of Defense Sheikh HamadJaber Al-Ali Al-Sabah — a descendant of the brave Sheikh of Kuwait’s enlightenment, Sheikh Jaber Al-Ali Al-Salem Al-Sabah, our former Minister of Information, and the great and virtuous businesswoman with descent and lineage Suad Al-Humaidhi, may God forgive them.
I knew the two of them personally and had long discussion sessions with them. I saw and heard nothing from them but the good for Kuwait and its people, especially in the area of enlightenment.
Our conditions changed recently, especially when our rational government was handed over to the fundamentalists who filled the Earth with screams, shrieks and requests for them and those who cherished them.
As soon as Sheikh Hamad Al-Jaber declared the acceptance of women in the Army; their screams filled the horizons as if the order was a permit for nude clubs, beaches, gay marriage or the freedom of sexual relations between a man and a woman before marriage. They did this for the minister to come and silence them. They did this for him to invite them to a meeting and promise them that women will not enter the military unless the Fatwa and Legislation Authority of the fundamentalist duo gives the green light wholeheartedly!
It is a body by virtue of receiving thousands of Kuwaiti dinars of public money. It has no work unless it is asked to do so. It issues a fatwa according to its ideas and beliefs. It may leave little room for its guardians to save the face of rationality!!
