It has corn® to jay knowind^e that on® of tho chiefe of
the 'AJman, Phaid^n bln Hithlaln, has raided eoise of the
Mutair and # Aj»an trlbeenen In Kuwait territory. X ae very
aorry that this raid has taken place f firetly because it
** هذه التواريخ تقريبية * done without ay permiaeioa * and in spite of thevstrict
orders which X h^d issued to all tribal chiefs to keen
peace and order • tlie raiders however thought that they
**•
would take revenge for what took place at Shadhaf (regard*;
which X addressed you In my letter Ko.as of 37th Kaaadhan
AS43 f Und May lP34) f and say Uiat they only took this aetloi
when they saw the tribesmen who had raided Shadhaf amongst
those whom they raided. Secondly X regretth&t it took place
in the territory of Kuwt.it, the friend of both His Majesty *1
Government and myself. Xt must not be lost sight of that if
X do not punish the tribes the matter will no doubt grow an
become more difficult, but what prevents me from punishing
them straight away is the fear that the offenders will fie
to *Iraq and take refuge with the Government of *Iraq, as
hapriened last year when X tried to punish the tribes which
had joined Xusuf al-Mansur in raiding the Dhafir. On that
occasion they fled from my territory to ’Iraq, where they
were welcomed by the King of *Xr*q, and began to stir up
trouble, and to rob and pillage and then take refuge in
*ra 4 . Since then X have not been able to give the tribes
the chance of fleeing to ‘Iraq and taking refuge there. Xf
however His Majesty's Government will assist me in ex eili^
the guilty tribes now in 'Iraq, and will promise me on Mato*
behalf of the Governments under her mandate and protection
that those Governments will not give asylum and protection,
