I have one link for you:

Hmmm...A nation of 2.5 million people? A nation sitting on a butt load of money? A nation that has already been invaded for their energy resources?

Kuwait has a standing army, navy, air force, and national guard. And they spend 5.3% of their GDP on military expenditures, ranking them 16th among 173 nations with military expenditures.

Now, what were you saying about no need for an army?
