Kuwaiti Ministers
The Minister of Information isn't alone in the Kuwaiti Parliament's investigatory sights. A Shi'ite Islamist has called for the prosecution of the Minister of Health over the death of a Somali patient in a government hospital. Meanwhile, two liberals want to question the Minister of State for Cabinet Affairs, State Minister for Parliamentary Affairs, and Deputy Prime Minister over alleged corruption and democracy suppression. This is not a united effort to thwart the monarchy, as no one seems to know what to make of the move against the Health Minister, while the latter investigation is opposed by Islamists. Still, the country might be passing through a phase when political corruption and mismanagement becomes a weapon used in open public debate between factions, which does often lead to less corruption and mismanagement, so I see these as positive developments.
