QUAYLE TELLS KUWAITIS TO GUARD HUMAN RIGHTS

With the Kuwaiti government nearing its return to power, the Bush administration gave Kuwaiti soldiers a pointed warning Tuesday that they should become "champions of human rights and freedom" in the liberated nation.

The warning, which Vice President Dan Quayle issued to Kuwaitis graduating from a training program preparing them to serve as advisers to the U.S. military, came as concern mounted about a possible Kuwaiti backlash against Palestinians in Kuwait city, many of whom supported Saddam Hussein. - Los Angeles Times
