They may not know the extent of it and i dont know how deeply. But they certainly know that its going on. And i can say that with near certainty. So i will give you an example of one of the ways that it has been difficult for kuwait to do anything about it. One complication is that a lot of the people involved are part of this in one particular individual that you actually mentioned is a former parliamentarian.
