On the anniversary of the Iraqi army’s invasion of Kuwait, tweets circulated an old video clip of the former Saudi monarch, King Fahd bin Abdulaziz, talking about the unity of destiny between Kuwait and Riyadh, and some tweeters also published the comment of the current Saudi monarch, King Salman, on his brother’s words. In the clip, King Fahd says: "Kuwait must return, otherwise Saudi Arabia will also go with Kuwait. If the dignity of Kuwait goes, so does the dignity of Saudi Arabia. Finally, there is no Kuwait and Saudi Arabia. There is one country. Either we live together or we end together." And the former Saudi monarch added in the clip: "Either Kuwait and Saudi Arabia remain, or Kuwait and Saudi Arabia end, one cannot end and the other remains," he said. Tweeters also circulated a video clip of King Salman's comment on his brother's talk about Kuwait. It is noteworthy that the Iraqi army invaded Kuwait between August 2 and 4, 1990, before Saudi Arabia and a number of Arab countries led by America intervened to respond to the Iraqi army and expel it from Kuwaiti territory.
