petra - "Forward thinking". Eldest son and family live in Kuwait and I've been there and met several of their Arab friends. They're very "modern" and friendly.
Son teaches in a secondary school with mixed nationals, including Arab/Muslims and they put on the musical Grease last year, which amazed me.
I think they're mostly Shiites there, but son says there are signs that the Sunnis are starting to have more influence.
