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? |
This might come as a shock to you, but Alberta is not in the middle east, and it is not surrounded by dictatorships and religious fanatics.
In what will further shock you, Kuwait does not actually share a border with the US! I know, I was surprised too, but hey, you learn something new every day, don't you?
And you know what the kicker is? When Kuwait was invaded, the world rushed to its aid.
Are you going to compare Alberta's situation to Europe in the middle ages next?
