Back to the thread.
The Kuwaitis are.....ready for it......
afraid of the Iranians. Kuwait City is only about 40 mi away from the Iranian frontier. The Iranians have between perhaps 450 and 600 Scud B and Scud C missiles with ranges of over 200 miles. The are a very old technology and have a CEP-50 of 850
meters (Circular Error Probable...50% will land within a radius of 850 m of the target). That is really pretty lousy so they are only really useful when fired at very large targets (like a city). For comaprison, the US Trident missile warhead fired from a submarine 6000 miles away has a CEP of 90 m (with a nucelar warhead)

As the Iranians would be unlikely to do much damage to a US base with these (Scuds) unless they fired dozens...they would most likely do exactly what they did in the Iran/Iraq war..fire them at Arab cities (in Dubai, Oman, Qatr, Kuwait).
Now..add to this the fact that, in my opinion, the Kuwaitis are an effete and coddled lot who couldn't change the spark plugs on their BMW 7 series with the help of color-coded tools and an animated video with a talking camel. Their wealth came not from their own effort but because foreign engineers found black gold under all the camel dung. Most of the hard work of the country is done by imported labor from the PI or Palestine or Bangladesh etc, etc. They were completely unprepared to deal with SH
Why should we expect anything different from them?
