How is a street named after Hassan Al-Banna ??


 The Muslim Brotherhood believed in violence as a means of power, if it could not access it by other means. A number of Brotherhood members were convicted of the assassinations of Judge Al-Khazindar and the Egyptian Prime Minister Nokrashi Pasha in the mid-forties, and others were also convicted in the bombings of Coptic churches and the assassination of foreign tourists, apart from their armed participation in the Rab'a events. The mercy of the Brotherhood has emerged many militant movements and organizations, such as "atonement and immigration", Al-Qaeda, and next to ISIS and others .. Therefore it was strange that Kuwait continued to embrace the Brotherhood with this force and to show leniency with them, turning a blind eye and even governmental sympathy, and naming one of the largest streets in Rumaithiya after the founder of the Brotherhood, Hassan Al-Banna (Watchmaker).

The minutes of the meeting of the governmental committee in charge of examining the issue of naming streets, dated 10/23/1966, and in the presence of Muhammad Saqr Al-Maousherji, Muhammad Ali Aman and Abdul Wahid Aman, revealed that the committee named hundreds of streets, parks and squares, based on the importance of the place to be named. After classifying it into categories.

As for the dissatisfaction that some have aroused from the continued use of the name Al-Banna on a street in Rumaithiya and replacing it with another, this is a matter worth considering in light of the decline in the Brotherhood’s influence. An observer says that he stripped the backgrounds of hundreds of streets named after them, so it became clear to him that the majority did not deserve to be honored, and they were never anything to do with the nation, that is if some of them were not among the big ones who contributed to the theft of its wealth and sabotage its social peace! General “Hasted” has great credit for Kuwait, architecturally, and yet he did not get any honor.
