Kuwait cracking down on stateless demonstrators

None

Kuwait is moving to crack down on weekly Friday demonstrations by residents who are considered stateless.

 

The protesters say they are Kuwaiti nationals who have been deprived of their rights. Most are descendants of desert nomads. They seek access to the oil-rich nation's extensive benefits, like free health care and state jobs. (AP)
