Media personalities and artists: Kuwait triumphed through the unity of its people

Kuwaitis need a moment to recall what happened on August 2, 1990. That date remains etched in the collective consciousness, evoking images of pain and anxiety, yet it also brings to mind one of the greatest displays of national solidarity, as Kuwaitis rallied around their legitimate leadership, convinced that justice would prevail and that the homeland would be liberated, no matter how long the occupation lasted.

Marking the 36th anniversary of the brutal Iraqi invasion, a number of journalists, artists, theater practitioners, and poets recalled memories of that period, emphasizing that what Kuwait experienced was not merely a passing crisis, but an experience that forged a deep national consciousness and ingrained in people’s hearts the meaning of true belonging.
