Kuwait and Mauritania take demand for change to the street

(Mosaic Video Alert: March 9, 2011) Dubai TV reports on anti-government protests in Kuwait and Mauritania. In Mauritania's capital Nouakchott, protestors chanted slogans such as, "Change or you will be changed" and "It's time to build the country." Despite the police crackdown on the protests, which included using teargas to disperse crowds and beating demonstrators, the confrontation lasted for hours. Similarly, in Kuwait hundreds of youths gathered in front of government headquarters, chanting reform slogans and calling for change. Kuwaiti protestors' demands include the ouster of Prime Minister Nasser Mohammad al-Ahmad al-Sabah and equality for all citizens.
