When he said ” did you know that Kuwait is one of the most racist countries ” with all due respect to him, YAKL 5ARA!
I have to admit it, Kuwait has racism between both Kuwaities ( 3eeme, 7’6ry, bdwy, senny, shee3y, wld 3ayla, wld 8abeela ) and we even see those problems on TV
and non-kuwaities, some kuwaities do treat indians/philopinos/lebanese etc… bad or say somthing bad to them.
In the end, 7ab agoola that raicm is everywhere world wide!
Racism is spread worldwide, even between arab countries and middle east countries. For example when you hear saudi guy flaming kuwaiti guy, or Kuwaiti flaming qatar, and so on.
It depends on the person himself, not the country, So please don’t say Kuwait is one of the most racist countries.
I’m sorry but its hard to take what he has to say seriously when he is talking like ‘bi6ee7 nussa’. Which is a pity because it seems like he has a really good & important point.
Eeeee 9a7 it depends on the person 😛
Is he for real?
KAAAAAAAAAAAAAK tekfa ta3al shalaihna
a36eek eli tabi bas ta3al solef
This guy speaks the truth.
Kuwait is one big spoiled country. Had it not been for the massive surge of revenue generated through the miraculous discovery of oil, our country and it’s citizens would have been more accepting to the harsh reality of life. We’d have to adapt to the changing world, and not live in our own little bubble.
Instead, we got a bunch ignorant lazy snobs. They are too self absorbed, and are naive enough to not consider any damages they inflict onto people that are not part of them.
I mean, look at this:
A guy/girl parks their car in front of a corner store and honk ridiculously to get the man behind the counter to come out rushing to serve them… I tell this scenario to any of my fellow American friends, they laugh and sigh at the same time.
To analyze the above situation, is the person honking that lazy to get out of his/her car? does he/she think they are more superior than the man making an honest living at the store?
I do realize I’m ranting at this point, but the idea should remain the same:
Treat others the way you want to be treated!
I can figure from replies here that home maid treatment depends on the personality of sponsor,which confirms that video,there must be a strong law to punish guilty people whoever is sponsor or maid,not only to punish home maid
LOL!
am I the only one who finds this funny?
well he’s right the majority of kuwaitis are racists, show off, and think that they are the best
@ Al-Marzouq: Ummm not if you read the comments above yours, no.
Shit, is this guy serious. He is saying something everybody knows.
Video is hilarious!!
And does he kinda-sorta sound gay? that could be just me.
I dont know what got into you mark, but why would you want to listen to this guy blabber for 7 minutes 🙂
@ NaturalMystic to your example, well it’s a service to customers, but I think we can provide a better example where kuwaitis ridiculously honk at foreigners to get off the way while they don’t honk at kuwaitis lol
whats wrong with kuwaiti guys (aziz and this one) ???
Hey guys! It doesn’t hurt to show a little respect to those who want to change Kuwait.
Ambala kalama 9a7. Kuwait ARE racist. How often do u see a grp of kuwaities in a public school where one of their best friends within the grp is non-kuwaiti? Like hendeya wela falas6enya? Not too often. Why? …. mala da3i enkamel.
And this guy is studying in college, meanings he’ll get help and make friends from every country, so don’t say los angeles is better than kuwait from racism lol

كل مكان فيه خير و شر
اليوم الصبح بكل ادب و احترام نقيب داخلية راكب سيارته الخاصة و وسع لي الطريق بكل ادب و انا مصري و لابس بدلة، والله المحترمين بالكويت اكثر و كلهم ناس افاضل، يا جماعة حقوق انسان ولا اي ديانة تقول اللي يقوله الاسلام اللي كارهينه و يقولون عليه ارهاب،
“لا فرق لعربي على اهعجمي الا بالتقوى” و القران يقول ( و خلقناكم شعوبا و قبائل لتعارفوأ ان اكرمكم عند الله اتقاكم” و يقول بصراحة شديدة ( لا يسخر قوم من قوم ولا نساء من نساء”
هذا هو الاسلام اللي يتهمونه بالارهاب و هو دين رحمة و تئالف و محبة
He has a valid argument, but that goes out the window once you consider his presentation style. He lacks a strong foundation in either language, and so needs to resort to both languages to make a claim, and even then it becomes difficult for him to express his ideas. I think this type of speech is becoming more and more common in Kuwait, and it worries me. Reading more books in either languages will take care of that fairly quickly though.
As far as some of the comments I’ve seen, some people have attempted to justify the racism in Kuwait or downright deny it, someone here also said that the country isn’t to blame and that the individual is at fault. I think the first two positions are ridiculous. It’s true that an individual is responsible for being racist, but it’s the individual that makes the country.
Another guy also tried to pin the speaker’s attitude and behavior on being raised by maids. “tarbiyat 5adam,,,, fashalna wala…” lolwut?
A comma cannot be used as a replacement for periods, the laws of English punctuation just don’t work that way. You cannot create a long pause by stringing up a few commas together(Internet Grammar Police).
As for the attack on his demeanor, being raised by maids simply has nothing to do with it. Assuming it’s true, if anything, being raised by maids gave him the insight he needed to come to his conclusions. And if you’re my age, I’m willing to bet a maid spent more time with you than your parents did when you were an infant.
I don’t blame the maids, I blame the parents. I blame the parents for being too busy to take an interest in the growth of their own child. I blame the parents for enforcing the flawed ideals of a dying age.I blame the parents for instilling in their children a sense of entitlement that just makes the whole racism situation worse.
I’ll be the first to say that his presentation was lacking, and his delivery was mediocre, but look beyond that and you’ll see that he deals with a very serious issue that hinders the growth of Kuwait. I don’t see how anyone can disagree with what he has to say.
Hmm, this is probably one my longer and more serious comments. Oh well ^^
Fact:
Kuwait is not a racist country. IN FACT, there is no such thing as a “racist country”. If a country is a “racist country” then it would not be a member of the United Nations because it would violate the core beliefs of the UN Charter.
Ugly truth:
Yes, racism does exist in this day and age and not just in Kuwait. Racism are individualistic acts and therefore one cannot label the actions of a few on an entire country or people. If we do that then it will be assumed OK to state that all muslims are terrorists based on the actions of a few.
Bottom line:
To say that an entire country is “racist” is simply asinine.
He needs to leave LA and take a trip to the deep south; I am sure all the wonderful people in Alabama would welcome him warmly.
I can’t call this self criticism (providing this guy is Q8i). cuz (IF WHAT HE CLAIMS IS TRUE), then I could say this: After I lived in America for many years, I could say that Americans are “gay”, and “child molesters”. And after visiting Egypt , I could say that Egyptians are “cheaters” and “pocket pickers”.and after dealing with many Lebanese, I could say that Lebanese people are “bounty hunters”. And last but not least, after Iraqi invasion, I could say that Iraqis are “back stabbers” (I admit claiming that myself sometimes).
I myself faced reality after studying in USA, that Q8, (as a government and general population), has many things to improve.One major thing is the attitude towards foreigners. But then, so does other countries.
So,In a nutshell, I say to the guy in the video,I assume that you are a Q8i and have a big family here, so ,I DARE YOU,to marry,have children, and live in America.And then I want to see what kind of video you make about Americans.
mark i really think u should remove the link to his other videos… fisheela for kuwait!!
if one or two make it to the news paper does that mean all the Kuwaitis are the same ? maybe he is or his mother are not so good with the maid .
الخير يخص والشر يعم
not every stupid should have a camera -__- .
As a Kuwaiti who lived in the States half my life, I think he’s got a strong point. And a lot of you attacking him or trying to contradict him are missing the point. Just because he’s making a video about racism in Kuwait doesn’t mean he has to go on and on pointing out flaws in every country around the world, including the U.S. where he’s living (I had a big argument with a friend the other day about this; just because you criticize one thing doesn’t mean your condoning another). And attacking him for the way he talks is just silly. Who cares?
I noticed when I came back to Kuwait in ’92 that whenever you have an issue with someone here (disagreement or frustration), the very 1st thing that’s attacked is nationality or national standing (within Kuwait). Of course, if the guy is also a 1st-class Kuwaiti, you’ll DEFINITELY find something else to attack: his job, his family, etc.
He’s saying the truth ppl
This guy think he’s Paris Hilton or something?
He’s mixing up racism and ethnicity. The hate towards the house maid by some people isn’t race related. It’s simply power on the weak, regardless of what race or country the maid is from. We do have an ethnicity problem in Kuwait of course. It’s not racism.
“Kuwait is one of the most racist countries in the world” ? lol have you been to Europe?
Tokyo and Japan? Really?
Well it really surprises me when someone compares kuwait’s racism with other countries.I am a pakistani born in kuwait and my mother too. My mom turned 50 last year. I asked her once about what does she think has changed in terms of racism in kuwait all these years, she answered it is same as it was when she was a kid in kuwait.I mean i have experienced this all my life every single day whenever i had to deal with a citizen her whether it be police station , airport, ministry or even gas station. No matter how hard i am trying to settle down in australia i still miss kuwait not the locals
7amdilla wil shikir…. he is so fake
It was really hard dodging his accent, holding my breath, and taking his words into consideration, ‘got his swagger on’ he did forget that most are racists towards tribes, meaning Kuwaiti’s are even racists against other Kuwaiti’s.
Still I’d watch it again for the stand up comedy accent.
agool craig david,,, re7t Cali o 3esht eldoor?? ta3al il kuwait asaweek khadamtna
HE NEEDS A MAKEOVER…..
First, When he said “bet” I thought he said bitch.
He has a very valid point, but this guy is a terrible speaker. Doesn’t know how to present his ideas in a proper manner.
He didn’t take a shit load of thing in consideration.
Last, but not least.
His accent is horrible, I’ve been in the US for a while and I have a hard time understanding such a broken accent.

You guys know that racism includes calling ur maids seelaneety or el hendeya malty..right?!
other than being a racist, we are also hypocrites. “and that is the ugly truth”. you might not notice it looking at yourselves, but once you step out of the box and look in we are. that goes to all arabs too including our friends in lebanon.
There’s a very clear line drawn between ethnicities in the GCC. To deny it is outrageous. However, this ‘line’ doesn’t necessarily mean racism… it’s the way people are treated which indicates that.
Watching this video and scanning the above comments was an unnecessary waste of my time!
@American Girl,
Exactly my point.
Please don’t speak English, and LOL @ the first comment!
@KTheKuwaiti
I was raised in the South (Texas to be exact), and my close group of friends (like many other groups of friends in the States) consisted of:
a white American guy who was a waiter, a Salvadorean/Spanish girl who is a secretary, a Palestinian guy who is an entrepreneur/software developer, a Nicaraguan girl who is a Doctor, a half African American/half Indian guy who is an engineer, and a guy from Togo who was a bellman at a hotel, so what’s your point??
A waiter, a secretary, a doctor, an engineer, and a bellman. I don’t believe I’ve EVER seen such a group of friends with diverse jobs/ethnicities such as this here in Kuwait. I don’t recall a Kuwaiti ever being BFF with, let’s say, a housemaid, a waiter from Chilis, or a worker from a shawarma stand… People here are too spoiled and too concerned about what ethnicity you are, what your family’s name is, etc (how people TALK), appearances, and all that meaningless crap that shouldn’t matter within friendships.
Please, the South would welcome you, or anyone for that matter, with open arms more than Kuwait ever will– no matter what race, gender, or sexual orientation you may be…
tell him to stfu
if he doesn’t like the way we live here
he can give his jinsiya to the moi and go live in the US
++++
if you foreigners don’t like the way ur kafeeel treats you
then deal with it or try to change him, If you judge the country by a few peoples actions then you’re an idiot
we r not in the US were everything is shit (freedom of speech , anti arab shit , homeless people every where , high unemployment rate …. the list goes on )
we r in kuwait were everything is better than the US
THEY HIDE EVERYTHING , the way they treat us in their airports , the way they bring drugs to black people by their congress members , the way they treat the poor chicanos is far more worse than the way we treat anybody here
if you don’t like it here
GTFO
He’s got a valid point there, although I don’t disagree with him saying that “Kuwait” as a whole country is racist, he should refer to the government, general population or both.
South Africa, as a country was never a racist country, the regime and “some” of the white minority were against the black SAs as far as I know, correct me if I’m wrong.
@KTheKuwaiti: Alabama (and the Southern states) is/are probably one of the most hospitable states you’ll ever visit, sure beats the way people treat outsiders/foriegners in the East coast. Obviously, you havent heard of “Southern hospitality”.
@ahmad: “the poor chicanos”!! Interesting choice of reference for Hispanics, genius! Surprised you didnt decide to use the N-word when you refered to blacks.
Overall, weak presentation skills-didnt communicate the message effectively. FAIL!!
ok 7abeebti ala yi9teralaich.. lol mino oma 9aida
Gosh! what happened to the guys of Kuwait? why is he talking like a girl?? MAN UP BUDDY!
Its sad coz what he is saying is very true… We do not have respect to other nationalities coz we think having more money, driving a better car or having a name stitched to our shirt makes us better and superior than others!
Yes racism exists everywhere but not like it does in Kuwait. I love my country but seeing how Kuwaities treat other nationalities really hurts me. Enshalla things will change for the best.
Disappointing coz he has a point but its hard to take him seriously! Is acting gay the new “Habba” now?
After spending some thought reading your comments and watching the video. FUCK THE WORLD <<<<< LOL JK
Seriously guys, every time something happens everybody is quick to defend the situation by saying "don't judge a country by 1 person" …. that is not the case as it's a LOT MORE THAN 1 PERSON! the society as a whole reflects the country. I have a mexican teacher who had troubles at the airport because halfway through the process they could not complete his application form because they thought he was british at first. To him this means either the country is racist or the laws are flawed, and both are not good options to go by! He doesn't care what you,your wonderful family and everyone you know that is nice … all he knows is that he was not treated as well or treated badly because of his race, and that is what reflects on society.
People are not supposed to tell you "GOOD JOB!" when you say please to your maid, but they will sure as hell tell you off if you treat them bad. The country should address this issue ….. too much e-go to admit there is racism on a wide scale and just pretend that its a few incidents here and there. or they do make laws of some sort, if you have was9a your golden, if you dont …. tough luck. And was9a is often looked at as a kuwaiti thing, its not, lots of people has was9a.
Forget racism, people are too quick to start a fight in kuwait for whatever reason. kuwaitis think they own the damn country and non-kuwaitis wanna act tough, too much generalization (I mean the ones who start fights, not referring to everyone btw) but thats what reflects to people.
I was talking about this the other day, a friend of mine said "If you are kuwaiti, then you are automatically better off in most aspects of kuwait and thats why he thinks it's racist" another friend of mine was so conditioned to defend his country at all costs that he said "Even a lowly egyptian has was9a these days, so thats not an issue" …. so he was being racist in his tone to explain that racism is not an issue in kuwait? Interesting.
the guy in the video …… lets not talk about how stupid that was.
LOL he has a point but sorry I can’t take him seriously bc of how ridiculous he sounds. It’s not just bc he sounds gay, it’s bc he sounds like not serious, like he’s putting on the voice and making fun of a gay person that can’t speak english or something.
He’s not real lol a human caricature! I am sure ppl are probably really racist towards him but he really should try to learn better english and change the silly way he talks to be taken seriously. Most women sound manlier than him!!

lol strong jins. Somewhat valid point, shitty Arabic, shitty English, shitty transition between both languags, and homosexual emasculated feminine delivery. Dude looks like a gangbanger but sounds like a drag queen. Very confusing. What is this I don’t even!
lol this is what I thought he said at the beginning of the video: “Did you know Kuwait is one of the most racist countries in the world? Bitch you didn’t know?!”
He has to approve comments on his video.
That pisses me off most.

Fact: Kuwait is a racist country. Fact: the world is losing grip of reality. Fact: Racism will never be wiped out.
LA is not racist? Bring that gay act of yours around midnight in Compton and then tell us how you enjoyed your time. Abused maids? You can catch a bullet for just wearing the wrong colors in Watts. Shit, give me Kuwait any day.
dude !!
forgot to add love how it ends with “i turn my swag on”
Check the closing slides/comments, the man made clear that he does not single out every Kuwaiti or even Kuwait per se.
If you’re picking on the way he talks and making assumptions about his sexual orientation, you aren’t doing much to disprove the point he’s making on discrimination.
Racism being a problem elsewhere doesn’t negate it here. How about you learn to deal with problems instead of acting like they don’t exist, are exaggerated, or by telling anyone who doesn’t like it to just leave?
@Jeff Gordon ,Thank you for correcting me
Thats the name i now ,
American people who i now always use this name ,
This is the first time i ever knew they are called Hispanics
I am surprised that out of the 70+ comments, nobody else feels this attention was made purely for attention and add to his “youtube channel” collection.
Look at the prior video about being in LA, about how he misses the workers that take your trays away at restaurants, and how gas attendants fill your pump at petrol stations in Kuwait.
The sad thing is the guy chooses a critical and important subject purely for attention.
Shame on him and his swagger.
Thanks for that video Mark. I must say that he is probably THE first Kuwaiti I have met that does not try in the slightest to make an excuse – but admits there is a problem and that it makes him angry and sad. as a foreigner i can say i resonate with what he is saying. People attacking the way he talks are just proof of the point he is making. They dont know that even though there is a lot of racism in other countries it is STILL more in Kuwait. Its in the way we think – its in the way even the people on the bottom of the food chain think here. Even a lot of comments on this board just show that minds are stuck and wont change unless we want them to change.
SO thanks mark and thanks to that guy for being so passionate about what hurts you and know that you are not alone in your hurt. If Kuwait was full of people with your sense of Justice then I could love it moreso than my own homeland.
انت ليش مايع ؟؟
Racism is bad.. mmkay?

the video stopped working… so how else will the message get passed on?
Im not a big fan of this guy, especially not a fan of the way he talks and presents ideas. But, his hearts in the right place this one time.
We should vote on giving him a Charlie Chaplin like mustache.
EPIC FAIL SORRY !
somebody teach him how to AR-TIC-U-LATE! better grammar too.
Haters Gonna Hate .
Go Back To L.A.
Mark, he deleted the vid, please include that info in the description.
in USA, UK and other countries racism is very very less as compared to how it is in Kuwait and Saudia. Its a Shame that the people of Kuwait call themselves muslims and treat many foriegners with so much racism, disrespect and at the same time commit unislamic practices of all kinds .
Especially the Labourers and maids from whom they suck their blood to the last and still it doesnt satisfy them!!!They do this by not giving their Salaries for 3-4 months , physical,sexual abuse,beatings(breaking their bones many times) and also many times food deprevation..all these have been exposed by the media and human rights internation which the Kuwaitis so eagerly block it from the News. many times they cut their Salary from the Flight ticket when they are deported back to their home country. All this never happens with Expatriates who keep maids in their houses too, they are treated well and equal,salaries paid on time and many times the Expats even give them money back home for emergencies.In my many years in Kuwait i have never heard of single incident where Expats have abused their maids , but regarding kuwaitis its an everyday story.This is the level of Moral Depravity they have gone into and incur Allah’s wrath upon themselves.
Look at the young kuwaiti Children , throwing stones at vehicles of foriegners , behaving absolutely like Animals in front of them.
Even if some people have racist feelings in those western countries they behave like Cultured , civilized people and do not do Zulum(oppression) on the weak and poor people. even in rare cases when racist attacks happen in western nations , the offender is given a harsh punishment ,unlike in kuwait where the kuwaiti is above the law .
Curse of Allah be upon the Zalimun(oppressors) and Racists. The oppressors and racists will not only be punished in the hereafter, but also in this world.
There is a Hadith where the Prophet SAWS says anyone with an inch of pride will not enter the heaven . So imagine these Racist kuwaitis , what will happen of them …not just for their racist behaviour but also the oppression and crimes they commit against the Poor and helpless labourers and maids.Curse of Allah be on them !!
And by the way the many of these Racist Kuwaitis think they have oil and lot wealth and that makes them superior and treat outsiders like slaves. when the oil is over(in 50-60 years) , what the hell will you do ? You cannot even run your own Oil refeneries, and you need outsiders to run your country. You have no agriculture, no Technology, No innovation, No exports(other than oil) ,No independent service sector ….you will have no option but to go back to your old days of pearl diving …and perhaps you may need to work in India, pakistan and Egypt which you used to more than 100 years back.
look at the other nations in this world China,Brazil,Iran and India …they are the future of tomorrow.And they will be the biggest economies in 15 years time. They have their own industries,technology,finance,IT and self sufficiency and dont have to depend on things like Oil.And most importantly they Respect foriegners so much and give them more respect,welcome and treatment than they do to their own fellow citizens.
Anyways , i have left kuwait some years back …and i have a great life in Canada where i even got a citizenship and am being treated with so much respect from the local people here .Kuwait is a sick place like a Cage with no rights and freedom. Am so glad to have left this place.My advice to others is if you wish to live a life of freedom,justice and see humanity go to Canada, UK or other countries like that.Dont rot yourself in places like kuwait which calls itself Islamic but on the reality is Hypocritical.
May Allah give the kuwaitis some wisdom and bring them out of this Jahilliyyah and racism and towards the Humanity of Islam.Ameen.
let the kuwaitis say whatever they want to defend the statement Racism exists everywhere. But they forget the fact that Racism in Kuwait is of a very brutal nature compared to Western nations.
What happens in Kuwait is not only Racism but also Slavery when it comes to Labourers and Maids.
In western Nations whenever a racist attack happens against an individual, there is a harsh punishment. But in Kuwait the Kuwaiti is never accountable , and there is no law in Kuwait which protects Expats from Racist attacks and behaviour.
Morover the percentage of Racism in Kuwait is 100 fold more than it is in western nations. Even if people in western nations dont like foriegners , they dont behave like the Kuwaiti animals like how it happens here in Kuwait.
I ask the arrogant Ahmad and also other kuwaitis in post the following :
1.Are people who work in contruction,cleaning companies and low skilled jobs in USA,UK etc ever treated like Slaves especially if they are foriegners?
2.Are they not paid wages for months(which happens in Kuwait so frequently with labourers)????
3.Are their Passports taken away by their employees??
4.Are they booked by criminal offense for changing their Company ??
5.Are they Paid a mere 100 Dollars a month ?? thats not even enough for themselves,let alone to send for their families. The kuwaitis themselves have not faced this hardship and slavery,hence they least bothered to do anything about it and prefer to act as if everything is normal.
6. Do people in Western nations break the Que in ATM’s,Banks, Traffic Dept etc.(which is very common in kuwaitis in Kuwait)
you all know the answer is no for all the questions, but on the other hand you pretend that racism in Kuwait is just like how it is in other countries…this is Big hyprocisy …you Kuwaitis are not only Morally depraved , but also big Hypocrites.
And the maids are treated absolutely like Slaves, their passports confiscated, The govt. has no laws to protect them.They get Beaten up badly, abused Physically and sexually ,Threatened . There are thousands of Cases where maids run away from their employers/kafeel to the Embassies to escape their oppression/zulm.
Wallahi this oppression will be accounted by Allah in this world, and in the hereafter The Punishment is GREAT. These oppressors think that they have a lot of wealth, but this wealth will neither protect them from the Curse of Allah SWT NOR the punishment of the hereafter.Let them live with Arrogance,pride and Zulm…but this life will end soon and they will be in Horror in the next life.
The Prophet SAWS said anyone who has even an inch of Pride will not enter heaven . Imagine what will happen to these Racist Kuwaitis , they are not only racist but also Oppressors !! All their good Deeds will go in vain because of oppression they commit on the helpless and Poor people.For an Oppressor will not escape the Punishment of Allah SWT.
Arabs have such a beautiful History and Culture. But these Kuwaitis,Saudis and some GCC states are an Insult and Shame to the Arab Nation.
Just look at the Other Arab Nations like Jordan,lebanon,Syria and egypt …how nice and politely they treat Foriegners irrespective of their colour,race or language. These are the real arabs and not the Hypocrites like in Kuwait.
Wallahi the punishment of Allah is great , but most understand not.
Note: This is only addressed to the Racist Kuwaitis . there are many Excellent civilized Kuwaitis and i pray that Allah bless them and reward them in this world and the hereafter just like any Good Muslim of other nationality. But most Kuwaitis/ majority are Racists..so for them Allah will handle them.

Racism is spread worldwide, even between arab countries and middle east countries. For example when you hear saudi guy flaming kuwaiti guy, or Kuwaiti flaming qatar, and so on.
It depends on the person himself, not the country, So please don’t say Kuwait is one of the most racist countries.
WTF?!!!!
OMG I NEVER LAUGHED THIS HARD SINCE YEARS. LOOOL
no comment :/

^ LOL 😛
I’m sorry but its hard to take what he has to say seriously when he is talking like ‘bi6ee7 nussa’. Which is a pity because it seems like he has a really good & important point.
Eeeee 9a7 it depends on the person 😛
Is he for real?
KAAAAAAAAAAAAAK tekfa ta3al shalaihna

This guy speaks the truth.
Kuwait is one big spoiled country. Had it not been for the massive surge of revenue generated through the miraculous discovery of oil, our country and it’s citizens would have been more accepting to the harsh reality of life. We’d have to adapt to the changing world, and not live in our own little bubble.
Instead, we got a bunch ignorant lazy snobs. They are too self absorbed, and are naive enough to not consider any damages they inflict onto people that are not part of them.
I mean, look at this:
A guy/girl parks their car in front of a corner store and honk ridiculously to get the man behind the counter to come out rushing to serve them… I tell this scenario to any of my fellow American friends, they laugh and sigh at the same time.
To analyze the above situation, is the person honking that lazy to get out of his/her car? does he/she think they are more superior than the man making an honest living at the store?
I do realize I’m ranting at this point, but the idea should remain the same:
Treat others the way you want to be treated!
I can figure from replies here that home maid treatment depends on the personality of sponsor,which confirms that video,there must be a strong law to punish guilty people whoever is sponsor or maid,not only to punish home maid
LOL!
am I the only one who finds this funny?
well he’s right the majority of kuwaitis are racists, show off, and think that they are the best
@ Al-Marzouq: Ummm not if you read the comments above yours, no.
Shit, is this guy serious. He is saying something everybody knows.
Video is hilarious!!
And does he kinda-sorta sound gay? that could be just me.
I dont know what got into you mark, but why would you want to listen to this guy blabber for 7 minutes 🙂
@ NaturalMystic to your example, well it’s a service to customers, but I think we can provide a better example where kuwaitis ridiculously honk at foreigners to get off the way while they don’t honk at kuwaitis lol
whats wrong with kuwaiti guys (aziz and this one) ???
Hey guys! It doesn’t hurt to show a little respect to those who want to change Kuwait.
Ambala kalama 9a7. Kuwait ARE racist. How often do u see a grp of kuwaities in a public school where one of their best friends within the grp is non-kuwaiti? Like hendeya wela falas6enya? Not too often. Why? …. mala da3i enkamel.

Whats up with the queer vids lately ?
كل مكان فيه خير و شر
اليوم الصبح بكل ادب و احترام نقيب داخلية راكب سيارته الخاصة و وسع لي الطريق بكل ادب و انا مصري و لابس بدلة، والله المحترمين بالكويت اكثر و كلهم ناس افاضل، يا جماعة حقوق انسان ولا اي ديانة تقول اللي يقوله الاسلام اللي كارهينه و يقولون عليه ارهاب،
“لا فرق لعربي على اهعجمي الا بالتقوى” و القران يقول ( و خلقناكم شعوبا و قبائل لتعارفوأ ان اكرمكم عند الله اتقاكم” و يقول بصراحة شديدة ( لا يسخر قوم من قوم ولا نساء من نساء”
هذا هو الاسلام اللي يتهمونه بالارهاب و هو دين رحمة و تئالف و محبة
He has a valid argument, but that goes out the window once you consider his presentation style. He lacks a strong foundation in either language, and so needs to resort to both languages to make a claim, and even then it becomes difficult for him to express his ideas. I think this type of speech is becoming more and more common in Kuwait, and it worries me. Reading more books in either languages will take care of that fairly quickly though.
As far as some of the comments I’ve seen, some people have attempted to justify the racism in Kuwait or downright deny it, someone here also said that the country isn’t to blame and that the individual is at fault. I think the first two positions are ridiculous. It’s true that an individual is responsible for being racist, but it’s the individual that makes the country.
Another guy also tried to pin the speaker’s attitude and behavior on being raised by maids. “tarbiyat 5adam,,,, fashalna wala…” lolwut?
A comma cannot be used as a replacement for periods, the laws of English punctuation just don’t work that way. You cannot create a long pause by stringing up a few commas together(Internet Grammar Police).
As for the attack on his demeanor, being raised by maids simply has nothing to do with it. Assuming it’s true, if anything, being raised by maids gave him the insight he needed to come to his conclusions. And if you’re my age, I’m willing to bet a maid spent more time with you than your parents did when you were an infant.
I don’t blame the maids, I blame the parents. I blame the parents for being too busy to take an interest in the growth of their own child. I blame the parents for enforcing the flawed ideals of a dying age.I blame the parents for instilling in their children a sense of entitlement that just makes the whole racism situation worse.
I’ll be the first to say that his presentation was lacking, and his delivery was mediocre, but look beyond that and you’ll see that he deals with a very serious issue that hinders the growth of Kuwait. I don’t see how anyone can disagree with what he has to say.
Hmm, this is probably one my longer and more serious comments. Oh well ^^
Fact:
Kuwait is not a racist country. IN FACT, there is no such thing as a “racist country”. If a country is a “racist country” then it would not be a member of the United Nations because it would violate the core beliefs of the UN Charter.
Ugly truth:
Yes, racism does exist in this day and age and not just in Kuwait. Racism are individualistic acts and therefore one cannot label the actions of a few on an entire country or people. If we do that then it will be assumed OK to state that all muslims are terrorists based on the actions of a few.
Bottom line:
To say that an entire country is “racist” is simply asinine.
He needs to leave LA and take a trip to the deep south; I am sure all the wonderful people in Alabama would welcome him warmly.
I can’t call this self criticism (providing this guy is Q8i). cuz (IF WHAT HE CLAIMS IS TRUE), then I could say this: After I lived in America for many years, I could say that Americans are “gay”, and “child molesters”. And after visiting Egypt , I could say that Egyptians are “cheaters” and “pocket pickers”.and after dealing with many Lebanese, I could say that Lebanese people are “bounty hunters”. And last but not least, after Iraqi invasion, I could say that Iraqis are “back stabbers” (I admit claiming that myself sometimes).
I myself faced reality after studying in USA, that Q8, (as a government and general population), has many things to improve.One major thing is the attitude towards foreigners. But then, so does other countries.
So,In a nutshell, I say to the guy in the video,I assume that you are a Q8i and have a big family here, so ,I DARE YOU,to marry,have children, and live in America.And then I want to see what kind of video you make about Americans.
mark i really think u should remove the link to his other videos… fisheela for kuwait!!
if one or two make it to the news paper does that mean all the Kuwaitis are the same ? maybe he is or his mother are not so good with the maid .
الخير يخص والشر يعم
not every stupid should have a camera -__- .
As a Kuwaiti who lived in the States half my life, I think he’s got a strong point. And a lot of you attacking him or trying to contradict him are missing the point. Just because he’s making a video about racism in Kuwait doesn’t mean he has to go on and on pointing out flaws in every country around the world, including the U.S. where he’s living (I had a big argument with a friend the other day about this; just because you criticize one thing doesn’t mean your condoning another). And attacking him for the way he talks is just silly. Who cares?
I noticed when I came back to Kuwait in ’92 that whenever you have an issue with someone here (disagreement or frustration), the very 1st thing that’s attacked is nationality or national standing (within Kuwait). Of course, if the guy is also a 1st-class Kuwaiti, you’ll DEFINITELY find something else to attack: his job, his family, etc.
He’s saying the truth ppl
This guy think he’s Paris Hilton or something?
He’s mixing up racism and ethnicity. The hate towards the house maid by some people isn’t race related. It’s simply power on the weak, regardless of what race or country the maid is from. We do have an ethnicity problem in Kuwait of course. It’s not racism.
“Kuwait is one of the most racist countries in the world” ? lol have you been to Europe?
Tokyo and Japan? Really?
Well it really surprises me when someone compares kuwait’s racism with other countries.I am a pakistani born in kuwait and my mother too. My mom turned 50 last year. I asked her once about what does she think has changed in terms of racism in kuwait all these years, she answered it is same as it was when she was a kid in kuwait.I mean i have experienced this all my life every single day whenever i had to deal with a citizen her whether it be police station , airport, ministry or even gas station. No matter how hard i am trying to settle down in australia i still miss kuwait not the locals
7amdilla wil shikir…. he is so fake
It was really hard dodging his accent, holding my breath, and taking his words into consideration, ‘got his swagger on’ he did forget that most are racists towards tribes, meaning Kuwaiti’s are even racists against other Kuwaiti’s.
Still I’d watch it again for the stand up comedy accent.
agool craig david,,, re7t Cali o 3esht eldoor?? ta3al il kuwait asaweek khadamtna
HE NEEDS A MAKEOVER…..
First, When he said “bet” I thought he said bitch.
He has a very valid point, but this guy is a terrible speaker. Doesn’t know how to present his ideas in a proper manner.
He didn’t take a shit load of thing in consideration.
Last, but not least.
His accent is horrible, I’ve been in the US for a while and I have a hard time understanding such a broken accent.

You guys know that racism includes calling ur maids seelaneety or el hendeya malty..right?!
other than being a racist, we are also hypocrites. “and that is the ugly truth”. you might not notice it looking at yourselves, but once you step out of the box and look in we are. that goes to all arabs too including our friends in lebanon.
There’s a very clear line drawn between ethnicities in the GCC. To deny it is outrageous. However, this ‘line’ doesn’t necessarily mean racism… it’s the way people are treated which indicates that.
Watching this video and scanning the above comments was an unnecessary waste of my time!
@American Girl,
Exactly my point.
Please don’t speak English, and LOL @ the first comment!
@KTheKuwaiti
I was raised in the South (Texas to be exact), and my close group of friends (like many other groups of friends in the States) consisted of:
a white American guy who was a waiter, a Salvadorean/Spanish girl who is a secretary, a Palestinian guy who is an entrepreneur/software developer, a Nicaraguan girl who is a Doctor, a half African American/half Indian guy who is an engineer, and a guy from Togo who was a bellman at a hotel, so what’s your point??
A waiter, a secretary, a doctor, an engineer, and a bellman. I don’t believe I’ve EVER seen such a group of friends with diverse jobs/ethnicities such as this here in Kuwait. I don’t recall a Kuwaiti ever being BFF with, let’s say, a housemaid, a waiter from Chilis, or a worker from a shawarma stand… People here are too spoiled and too concerned about what ethnicity you are, what your family’s name is, etc (how people TALK), appearances, and all that meaningless crap that shouldn’t matter within friendships.
Please, the South would welcome you, or anyone for that matter, with open arms more than Kuwait ever will– no matter what race, gender, or sexual orientation you may be…
tell him to stfu
if he doesn’t like the way we live here
he can give his jinsiya to the moi and go live in the US
++++
if you foreigners don’t like the way ur kafeeel treats you
then deal with it or try to change him, If you judge the country by a few peoples actions then you’re an idiot
we r not in the US were everything is shit (freedom of speech , anti arab shit , homeless people every where , high unemployment rate …. the list goes on )
we r in kuwait were everything is better than the US
THEY HIDE EVERYTHING , the way they treat us in their airports , the way they bring drugs to black people by their congress members , the way they treat the poor chicanos is far more worse than the way we treat anybody here
if you don’t like it here
GTFO
He’s got a valid point there, although I don’t disagree with him saying that “Kuwait” as a whole country is racist, he should refer to the government, general population or both.
South Africa, as a country was never a racist country, the regime and “some” of the white minority were against the black SAs as far as I know, correct me if I’m wrong.
@KTheKuwaiti: Alabama (and the Southern states) is/are probably one of the most hospitable states you’ll ever visit, sure beats the way people treat outsiders/foriegners in the East coast. Obviously, you havent heard of “Southern hospitality”.
@ahmad: “the poor chicanos”!! Interesting choice of reference for Hispanics, genius! Surprised you didnt decide to use the N-word when you refered to blacks.
Overall, weak presentation skills-didnt communicate the message effectively. FAIL!!
ok 7abeebti ala yi9teralaich.. lol mino oma 9aida
Gosh! what happened to the guys of Kuwait? why is he talking like a girl?? MAN UP BUDDY!
Its sad coz what he is saying is very true… We do not have respect to other nationalities coz we think having more money, driving a better car or having a name stitched to our shirt makes us better and superior than others!
Yes racism exists everywhere but not like it does in Kuwait. I love my country but seeing how Kuwaities treat other nationalities really hurts me. Enshalla things will change for the best.
Disappointing coz he has a point but its hard to take him seriously! Is acting gay the new “Habba” now?
After spending some thought reading your comments and watching the video. FUCK THE WORLD <<<<< LOL JK
Seriously guys, every time something happens everybody is quick to defend the situation by saying "don't judge a country by 1 person" …. that is not the case as it's a LOT MORE THAN 1 PERSON! the society as a whole reflects the country. I have a mexican teacher who had troubles at the airport because halfway through the process they could not complete his application form because they thought he was british at first. To him this means either the country is racist or the laws are flawed, and both are not good options to go by! He doesn't care what you,your wonderful family and everyone you know that is nice … all he knows is that he was not treated as well or treated badly because of his race, and that is what reflects on society.
People are not supposed to tell you "GOOD JOB!" when you say please to your maid, but they will sure as hell tell you off if you treat them bad. The country should address this issue ….. too much e-go to admit there is racism on a wide scale and just pretend that its a few incidents here and there. or they do make laws of some sort, if you have was9a your golden, if you dont …. tough luck. And was9a is often looked at as a kuwaiti thing, its not, lots of people has was9a.
Forget racism, people are too quick to start a fight in kuwait for whatever reason. kuwaitis think they own the damn country and non-kuwaitis wanna act tough, too much generalization (I mean the ones who start fights, not referring to everyone btw) but thats what reflects to people.
I was talking about this the other day, a friend of mine said "If you are kuwaiti, then you are automatically better off in most aspects of kuwait and thats why he thinks it's racist" another friend of mine was so conditioned to defend his country at all costs that he said "Even a lowly egyptian has was9a these days, so thats not an issue" …. so he was being racist in his tone to explain that racism is not an issue in kuwait? Interesting.
the guy in the video …… lets not talk about how stupid that was.
LOL he has a point but sorry I can’t take him seriously bc of how ridiculous he sounds. It’s not just bc he sounds gay, it’s bc he sounds like not serious, like he’s putting on the voice and making fun of a gay person that can’t speak english or something.
He’s not real lol a human caricature! I am sure ppl are probably really racist towards him but he really should try to learn better english and change the silly way he talks to be taken seriously. Most women sound manlier than him!!

lol strong jins. Somewhat valid point, shitty Arabic, shitty English, shitty transition between both languags, and homosexual emasculated feminine delivery. Dude looks like a gangbanger but sounds like a drag queen. Very confusing. What is this I don’t even!
lol this is what I thought he said at the beginning of the video: “Did you know Kuwait is one of the most racist countries in the world? Bitch you didn’t know?!”
He has to approve comments on his video.
That pisses me off most.
y3ny ent tgrg 3la kaif kaifik w ma tbena nt7cha? -.-
Fact: Kuwait is a racist country. Fact: the world is losing grip of reality. Fact: Racism will never be wiped out.
LA is not racist? Bring that gay act of yours around midnight in Compton and then tell us how you enjoyed your time. Abused maids? You can catch a bullet for just wearing the wrong colors in Watts. Shit, give me Kuwait any day.
dude !!
forgot to add love how it ends with “i turn my swag on”
Check the closing slides/comments, the man made clear that he does not single out every Kuwaiti or even Kuwait per se.
If you’re picking on the way he talks and making assumptions about his sexual orientation, you aren’t doing much to disprove the point he’s making on discrimination.
Racism being a problem elsewhere doesn’t negate it here. How about you learn to deal with problems instead of acting like they don’t exist, are exaggerated, or by telling anyone who doesn’t like it to just leave?
@Jeff Gordon ,Thank you for correcting me
Thats the name i now ,
American people who i now always use this name ,
This is the first time i ever knew they are called Hispanics
I am surprised that out of the 70+ comments, nobody else feels this attention was made purely for attention and add to his “youtube channel” collection.
Look at the prior video about being in LA, about how he misses the workers that take your trays away at restaurants, and how gas attendants fill your pump at petrol stations in Kuwait.
The sad thing is the guy chooses a critical and important subject purely for attention.
Shame on him and his swagger.
Thanks for that video Mark. I must say that he is probably THE first Kuwaiti I have met that does not try in the slightest to make an excuse – but admits there is a problem and that it makes him angry and sad. as a foreigner i can say i resonate with what he is saying. People attacking the way he talks are just proof of the point he is making. They dont know that even though there is a lot of racism in other countries it is STILL more in Kuwait. Its in the way we think – its in the way even the people on the bottom of the food chain think here. Even a lot of comments on this board just show that minds are stuck and wont change unless we want them to change.
SO thanks mark and thanks to that guy for being so passionate about what hurts you and know that you are not alone in your hurt. If Kuwait was full of people with your sense of Justice then I could love it moreso than my own homeland.
انت ليش مايع ؟؟
Racism is bad.. mmkay?
OMG! That was SO GAY!!
wow………………………………..
good luck you in your life man. 🙂
“na333aaaaaaaam” LOOOL, cant stop laughing at the way he said it.
dude, man up !
learn hot to talk, any language would do btw.
I wonder who gave you a scholarship ….
LOOOOOOOL @ othman al-othman..
hmmm ok after 73 comments, u guys got it covered..id just like to say: its stupid to generalize…mistreatmenst of maids happens many places not just kuwait, so i dont know why single kuwait out…good and bad exist everywhere..
and im sorry, i dont get why the dude is so fascinated by the ppl of LA..just drive to south east of LA…and ill wait for ur next post..assuming u survive compton..good luck
ana ma tha7akny ella …. EXCUUUUUUSE MEEE wil soot inba7 akher shay HAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHA
he has a point but he don’t know how to send it across.
update he kind of banned me from his video
after getting 50+ likes on my comment 😛
the video stopped working… so how else will the message get passed on?
Im not a big fan of this guy, especially not a fan of the way he talks and presents ideas. But, his hearts in the right place this one time.
We should vote on giving him a Charlie Chaplin like mustache.
EPIC FAIL SORRY !
somebody teach him how to AR-TIC-U-LATE! better grammar too.
Haters Gonna Hate .
Go Back To L.A.
Mark, he deleted the vid, please include that info in the description.
in USA, UK and other countries racism is very very less as compared to how it is in Kuwait and Saudia. Its a Shame that the people of Kuwait call themselves muslims and treat many foriegners with so much racism, disrespect and at the same time commit unislamic practices of all kinds .
Especially the Labourers and maids from whom they suck their blood to the last and still it doesnt satisfy them!!!They do this by not giving their Salaries for 3-4 months , physical,sexual abuse,beatings(breaking their bones many times) and also many times food deprevation..all these have been exposed by the media and human rights internation which the Kuwaitis so eagerly block it from the News. many times they cut their Salary from the Flight ticket when they are deported back to their home country. All this never happens with Expatriates who keep maids in their houses too, they are treated well and equal,salaries paid on time and many times the Expats even give them money back home for emergencies.In my many years in Kuwait i have never heard of single incident where Expats have abused their maids , but regarding kuwaitis its an everyday story.This is the level of Moral Depravity they have gone into and incur Allah’s wrath upon themselves.
Look at the young kuwaiti Children , throwing stones at vehicles of foriegners , behaving absolutely like Animals in front of them.
Even if some people have racist feelings in those western countries they behave like Cultured , civilized people and do not do Zulum(oppression) on the weak and poor people. even in rare cases when racist attacks happen in western nations , the offender is given a harsh punishment ,unlike in kuwait where the kuwaiti is above the law .
Curse of Allah be upon the Zalimun(oppressors) and Racists. The oppressors and racists will not only be punished in the hereafter, but also in this world.
There is a Hadith where the Prophet SAWS says anyone with an inch of pride will not enter the heaven . So imagine these Racist kuwaitis , what will happen of them …not just for their racist behaviour but also the oppression and crimes they commit against the Poor and helpless labourers and maids.Curse of Allah be on them !!
And by the way the many of these Racist Kuwaitis think they have oil and lot wealth and that makes them superior and treat outsiders like slaves. when the oil is over(in 50-60 years) , what the hell will you do ? You cannot even run your own Oil refeneries, and you need outsiders to run your country. You have no agriculture, no Technology, No innovation, No exports(other than oil) ,No independent service sector ….you will have no option but to go back to your old days of pearl diving …and perhaps you may need to work in India, pakistan and Egypt which you used to more than 100 years back.
look at the other nations in this world China,Brazil,Iran and India …they are the future of tomorrow.And they will be the biggest economies in 15 years time. They have their own industries,technology,finance,IT and self sufficiency and dont have to depend on things like Oil.And most importantly they Respect foriegners so much and give them more respect,welcome and treatment than they do to their own fellow citizens.
Anyways , i have left kuwait some years back …and i have a great life in Canada where i even got a citizenship and am being treated with so much respect from the local people here .Kuwait is a sick place like a Cage with no rights and freedom. Am so glad to have left this place.My advice to others is if you wish to live a life of freedom,justice and see humanity go to Canada, UK or other countries like that.Dont rot yourself in places like kuwait which calls itself Islamic but on the reality is Hypocritical.
May Allah give the kuwaitis some wisdom and bring them out of this Jahilliyyah and racism and towards the Humanity of Islam.Ameen.
let the kuwaitis say whatever they want to defend the statement Racism exists everywhere. But they forget the fact that Racism in Kuwait is of a very brutal nature compared to Western nations.
What happens in Kuwait is not only Racism but also Slavery when it comes to Labourers and Maids.
In western Nations whenever a racist attack happens against an individual, there is a harsh punishment. But in Kuwait the Kuwaiti is never accountable , and there is no law in Kuwait which protects Expats from Racist attacks and behaviour.
Morover the percentage of Racism in Kuwait is 100 fold more than it is in western nations. Even if people in western nations dont like foriegners , they dont behave like the Kuwaiti animals like how it happens here in Kuwait.
I ask the arrogant Ahmad and also other kuwaitis in post the following :
1.Are people who work in contruction,cleaning companies and low skilled jobs in USA,UK etc ever treated like Slaves especially if they are foriegners?
2.Are they not paid wages for months(which happens in Kuwait so frequently with labourers)????
3.Are their Passports taken away by their employees??
4.Are they booked by criminal offense for changing their Company ??
5.Are they Paid a mere 100 Dollars a month ?? thats not even enough for themselves,let alone to send for their families. The kuwaitis themselves have not faced this hardship and slavery,hence they least bothered to do anything about it and prefer to act as if everything is normal.
6. Do people in Western nations break the Que in ATM’s,Banks, Traffic Dept etc.(which is very common in kuwaitis in Kuwait)
you all know the answer is no for all the questions, but on the other hand you pretend that racism in Kuwait is just like how it is in other countries…this is Big hyprocisy …you Kuwaitis are not only Morally depraved , but also big Hypocrites.
And the maids are treated absolutely like Slaves, their passports confiscated, The govt. has no laws to protect them.They get Beaten up badly, abused Physically and sexually ,Threatened . There are thousands of Cases where maids run away from their employers/kafeel to the Embassies to escape their oppression/zulm.
Wallahi this oppression will be accounted by Allah in this world, and in the hereafter The Punishment is GREAT. These oppressors think that they have a lot of wealth, but this wealth will neither protect them from the Curse of Allah SWT NOR the punishment of the hereafter.Let them live with Arrogance,pride and Zulm…but this life will end soon and they will be in Horror in the next life.
The Prophet SAWS said anyone who has even an inch of Pride will not enter heaven . Imagine what will happen to these Racist Kuwaitis , they are not only racist but also Oppressors !! All their good Deeds will go in vain because of oppression they commit on the helpless and Poor people.For an Oppressor will not escape the Punishment of Allah SWT.
Arabs have such a beautiful History and Culture. But these Kuwaitis,Saudis and some GCC states are an Insult and Shame to the Arab Nation.
Just look at the Other Arab Nations like Jordan,lebanon,Syria and egypt …how nice and politely they treat Foriegners irrespective of their colour,race or language. These are the real arabs and not the Hypocrites like in Kuwait.
Wallahi the punishment of Allah is great , but most understand not.
Note: This is only addressed to the Racist Kuwaitis . there are many Excellent civilized Kuwaitis and i pray that Allah bless them and reward them in this world and the hereafter just like any Good Muslim of other nationality. But most Kuwaitis/ majority are Racists..so for them Allah will handle them.
@khaled
u call me racist ?????
i run a business with my dad and I’m delighted to say that all our staff execpt for one are the same from 15 yrs ( 6 in which i’ve been working for)
they get their pay checks every month
they get to keep their passports all the time
except when they are doing company related Transactions concerning big sums of money
