If you read the review closely, I was referring to the author's other books, The Sultana Series,that are about the lives of women in Saudia Arabia. I read "Rape of Kuwait" because I liked those books and was just referring to her tendency to write, and my interest in, books about the Middle East. I appreciate what you have to say about the Kuwaiti people and I think that my review was rather positive in that regard.MindySuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10122081120154598894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5367491918209452164.post-18759023373412109892012-10-08T23:40:14.034-07:002012-10-08T23:40:14.034-07:00Life isn't ''difficult'' or &#...Life isn't ''difficult'' or ''remarkable'' from women in Kuwait. You can wear whatever you want to wear, drive, vote, work in every field, be an MP in the parliament, basically do anything. Many Kuwaitis women wear tank tops and short shorts in Kuwait actually. It's becoming quite the norm among the youth. Hijab isn't that widespread among Kuwaiti nationals either, yes it's popular but many don't wear it. I guess it's more widespread among non-Kuwaiti Muslim nationals like Pakistanis and Egyptians. <br /><br />I don't know where you got the impression that life is difficult and remarkable for women in Kuwait.<br /><br />Kuwait is NO Saudi Arabia.

Well, "...Are we really going to do this again? Well, "Princess" I appreciate the book recommendations. I think, perhaps, your recommendation might lend more weight if you hadn't written and published it yourself. Google is a powerful thing, my dear. For example, it tells me that you are Ms. Sasson<br />s rather unstable stalker, who is disappointed to have lost what the judge called a "frivolous" and "objectively unreasonable" plagiarism lawsuit and will not let it go. <br /><br />For Ms. Sasson's explanation readers can visit: http://www.jeansasson.com/about/Frivolous-Lawsuits-and-stalkers-20110330.pdf<br /><br />I've tried to be patient, but I will no longer give you or your grudges and delusions voice in this forum. Further posts will not be approved.MindySuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10122081120154598894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5367491918209452164.post-86383496718351168182012-08-08T00:20:37.642-07:002012-08-08T00:20:37.642-07:00Hi MindySue, You might like to look up:

That's rare these days -- even the media reprints rumors, shockingly enough. Anyway, I was happy to read your review of RAPE. That was a terrible time and many innocent people died. I went into Kuwait within a few days of the war's end and followed up on a lot of the stories -- in my own memoirs I'll tell some of what I discovered. I'll never forget the parents of Kuwaiti kids who were taken from the streets and kidnapped to Iraq (when Iraqi military was fleeing Kuwait before the war started)waiting for the buses bringing the kidnapped victims home. Not all returned, leaving heartbroken parents and wives waiting lonely and lost. SO SAD... Thanks, again...

When I googled "Princess Sultana Hoax" all I found is one poorly written blog and several different websites where anonymous commenters (like yourself, because we both know you aren't Princess Sultana of Saudia Arabia) have left their own inflammatory rants about this book. These comments seem filled with personal bias and private agenda, rather than any actual facts. I think, especially with the more we uncover abuout the cruelty of Saddam Hussein's regime, that I'm going to side with Ms. Sasson. But thanks.MindySuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10122081120154598894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5367491918209452164.post-88596399418035434732011-08-05T13:35:51.729-07:002011-08-05T13:35:51.729-07:00READERS BEWARE!!!

THE RAPE OF KUWAIT book should have been withdrawn from book shelves a long time ago because it is a propaganda book of lies which was written by American hoax author Jean Sasson in return for large amounts of $ollars from the government of Kuwait. Kuwait's Ambassador paid Sasson a tidy sum for the lies in that book in order to win minds and hearts of people for Kuwait during the first gulf war 'DESERTSTORM'. If you do a little research you too will find the truth behind this book. Jean Sasson is the pioneer when it comes to writing lies.
