Robin Williams in Kuwait

[SoldierCyfix]

no general to order a Present Arms?

man i guess that must be an anxious feeling being there during a call for the first time

[dldunn1s]

I remember they did that to bob hope one time. Of course he knew what was going on, so he just went on with the show afterwards. I'm glad robin waited and took off his hat. His reaction afterwards was priceless!

[Mechknight73]

To all these haters that keep picking on US troops deployed, may I remind you that it's their duty to obey orders, even when they might disagree with them. It's not the military that's the problem, it's those morons in government that make the decisions. I've never served in the military and I'm Australian. I might disagree with why Aussie troops are in Iraq and Afghanistan, but I still support our soldiers

[lmcgready]

@Mechknight73 I agree entirely. Good for you!

[ibowman64]

i like how he took his cap off

[SoldierCyfix]

@ibowman64 lol when i doubt, just do it

[faivision]

oh its the silent...to hear 1000 of children die......everyday.....god save us all.....wait a minute...american is god in this world.....so they can fuck all any country in this world, even ban kim moon have to wash their dishes... who gonna stop god.....no one......we're fuck.........................

[EWLGtoday]

But I am glad he says in the outset that he went over there for them.

[jamesbond183]

i feel sorry for the mental state for those who say that American troops are "doing their job" by invading countries.

[EWLGtoday]

@jamesbond183 Amen, Ameen!!!!

[PhiloAmericana]

@jamesbond183 They wouldn't say that shit if it was their country invaded. It's all well and good when it's Iraq or Afghanistan. Americans will learn the costs of their foreign policy by the blowback it creates. They will learn to stop bombing villages and killing children.

[viewdemonde]

I like the way he's taking in the moment.

[Holydiver2107]

That was a fantastic view of Robin Williams.

There is no doubt in my mind, that other stand-up comedians would've taken that time to punch in a cheezy joke.

Long live Robin Williams the King of Funny

[munkeystrap2]

I remember watching this. It was him, kid rock, and few others if I remember correctly.

[Ulfnarr]

as long as a rag on a staff makes masses of people  do shit like this, there will be wars, massacres and idiocy spreading over the world. for a part of it to exploit it.

[Fizwalker]

I was there in the audience to see him. Of the entire show, this is the part I remember the clearest. That and about two minutes later, the power to the stage went out and he did the rest without a mic. Blackfive, you have the complete show lying around somewhere?

[valleyhomeboys]

@Fizwalker i was looking for that too bro :)

[Shesnoin]

Excellent - shows his humour is so deep that he came back with great jibes about what just happened. Good on you Robin for supporting the American troops despite your feelings of why and how - the boys are there doing a job and you backed them up. (As if Robin is ever going to see my thanks there but hell you never know!!!)

[WaleedElmal7e]

this is fucking censored...

[Randomgirlluvsya]

god bless my dear country Kuwait

[TinyArts]

Goooooood moooorning ! Iraaaaaq !

[NazoZero]

@TinyArts Fuck yeah

[Neoichan]

Holy crappers, my dad was over in Kuwait when Robin was there, got his hat stolen on the day trying to get Robin's autograph xD

[jaminb69]

...actually, it would be "farther than"...while we're on the subject of grammar.

[KingOfTheShrews]

All this fucking nonsense and pomp for a flag.

[zigzag024]

Your the MAN! Robin.

[mr3zzoooz]

my country q8

[BOBBYSOX86]

It was Kuwait you dumb cocksuckers

[reggindriver]

Iraq* stupid fuck

[barbieR89]

how about being polite ! I wrote it wrong so what !! and sorry there is no need for your anger

[reggindriver]

How can you write Iraq wrong when you see it every where you go?

[barbieR89]

I said....... I wrote it in a wrong way!!

It is not a big deal righ?

[reggindriver]

It is a big deal RIGHT* You know just because you see dumb chicks on TV doesn't mean you need to act like one. Just take your time and learn grammar it'll get you a lot farther in life then you might think. I love you anyways BarbieR89 I'm just trying to help.

[barbieR89]

I know how to spell right :/

anyway thanks. PS I'm a university student so I know how to spell the thing is I don't check my comment before posting it. Thank you so much reggindriver.

[augginator123]

@reggindriver seiously dude calm the fuck down

[reggindriver]

@augginator123 Shut the fuck up you dumb nigger

[augginator123]

@reggindriver good job calming down dude.

[reggindriver]

@augginator123 Didn't I tell you to shut up?

[augginator123]

@reggindriver yeah. did i listen?

[reggindriver]

@augginator123 You should. Now shhhhhhhhhhhhhh you're just getting old now

[sopretentious]

lol that was the longest he's ever been silent.

[TheStormcrow2]

@sopretentious HAHA So true, but who wants him to be quiet?

[MarFamore]

Kuwait is a non combat zone

[nawaf10soccer]

I love this Actor very good comedian! :)

[planetchinchilla]

He was so damn brave to go over there and give the troops a great show God knows they deserve it!

[caliq8]

this was in iraq

[6wooooq]

No I think in kuwait

[mutombodude]

Greatest Comedian of all time!!! and damn good actor

[artileriu]

ROBIN WILLIAMS you rock

[fallenangelscreed]

this is not in kuwait...half the ppl who are in da army dont even know who he is...what makes u think this is real

[Jesse9063]

actually yes that is in kuwait, Camp Arifjan, I'm stationed there right now. He's performing at the Zone 6 Stage next to the PX and the MWR and on the other side are the basketball courts, behind the gym. Of course people in the army knows who he is...thats just like saying that we dont know who barack obama is.

[NamVetBuck]

I wish we ALL didn't know who Obama is !

[jack16895]

pack up the shit we gotta go! God I love robin!

[Rush2547]

end of the duty day revelry plays and then the national anthem. when revelry plays you go to parade rest and then attention when the flag is risen

[weemanlovesjesus]

too bad he ended up making some of the movies he did. i mean don't get me wrong, flubber, mrs. doubtfire and the like were great but there's another one he was in that was really disappointing. i know y'all probly think i'm some idiot who doesn't know what i'm talking about but he really was in a REALLY weird movie where he was some kinda jerk/lunatic/pervert/psycho dude. and he used just about every curse word in the book.. i was very disappointed, after seeing the other stuff he played in.

[Kapelannew]

Man of the year was good....

[weemanlovesjesus]

i didn't see it...what was it like? and do you know/remember the other movie i was talking about? i just can't remember the name.

[xDontFaintx]

u mean the one where he works at a camera shop and take perverted photos of a family and stuff.... yea i think its called One Hour Photo.

[weemanlovesjesus]

yep that's the one.

[90Amir]

I think he did that movie to show how good of an actor he can be, he showed that he can not only act comedy but also drama and thrillers.. An Actor can "act" all roles and I guess it showed his variety and talent

I know the movie was bad, but he portrayed someone insane/weird and psycho pretty well don't you think?

Made him a better actor in return, in my opinion that is.

[weemanlovesjesus]

oh yeah you got that right, he did a doggone good job acting psycho, but i just don't like those kinds of movies, w/ all the profanity, etc. i mean call me sheltered or whatever but i just like the movies he did earlier in his career a LOT better but you're right, it definitely proved the diversity and very different roles in his theatrical spectrum.

[sackrider]

disagreement with the president did not stop him from going so a pat on the back to him

[jjwc4]

They said the flag was going down.

[Harruhii]

What where the soldiers doing...?

[Lodestone1968]

The flag is lowered at sunset. It happens on every military base. At sunrise the flag is raised.

[anygrl]

It's no secret that Robin Williams disagreed with a lot of what President Bush did in office (and with Republicans in general), but he doesn't let that stand in the way of supporting the military, which is remarkable for someone in Hollywood.

Mr. Williams, thank you for supporting out men and women in uniform. God bless the troops home and abroad!

[0toHero]

@anygrl Exactly. I mean, I have no respect for the right-wing, but I do have respect for the military and I respect the soldiers. Some of my best friends are American soldiers. Those guys have shit-loads of my respect. It takes balls to want to defend our country.

[weedo84]

HAHAHAhhahhahaaaa!!! wtf happened there..that was crazy!

[az90az90az90az]

i am from Kuwait , i love Robin Williams so much XD!!!!

[reazrj]

dammnit- the millitary were the only people who were luky enuf. i didnt get a whiff of the matter- ah mayb they need him more......

[savvy340]

lol America is Not at war with Kuwait we are at war with Afganistan and IRaq. sheesh. lol

[roudkilll]

coool he came to kuwait i didn't now

[chocolatemilkshake96]

when did he come to kuwait?

[howdy131]

That was HILARIOUS!!! Robin looked like he was about to crack up any second!

[galaxyboy777]

i didnt hear about when he came to kuwait ..

bt i like his movies :)

[DocDodge82]

I was stationed there when this happened...it was the funniest thing in the world...He was worried but at the same time he just went with it...he was the best celeb that came out to Kuwait...Robin came out with Kid Rock, Lewis Black, Lance Armstrong and Mrs. America...best USO tour ever:) I miss Kuwait:(

[noonii123]

come back to kuwait then lol youre welcome

[TDBenchwarmer8]

no, Fuck you asshole, Robin Williams is the MOST funniest stand-up Comedian in this entire country........

[M0man]

Well, There aren't that many stand up comedians in Kuwait

[Xxrubberducky900]

Love you kuwait!!  you robin

[UniQUeFaN4eVeR]

i'm from kuwait and i didn't know that he came here in kuwait !!! :)

[Nescafe2012]

he didn't

[7164227]

احسن ممثل :)

[jrrtknight]

Robin Williams - he's got more guts than half of Hollywierd ever will.

He admitted he didn't know what it was (Retreat/Colors), but he was respectful and he kept on going with the act and gave the troops a great laugh!

He's more respectful than most Americans toward their soldiers.

[WillWork4Food89]

The day that we can't make jokes about a flag being lowered is the day this country has reached a low it won't recover from.

Hundreds of military personnel turning around to watch a flag being lowered is not so sacred that it cannot be turned into a laugh. Anyone who thinks otherwise should allow a little more humor into their lives.

[Sshelly34213]

for what? going all the way to a country we're at war with and entertaining the troops? Most entertainers wouldn't even do that, you should be more respectful.

[HypnosisDevil2]

America's at war with Kuwait?

[q8ali1234]

no it's not...

[HypnosisDevil2]

I thought so. Why are people discriminating Kuwait so much here? :S

[BOBBYSOX86]

@HypnosisDevil2 read a newspaper or watch the news once in a while you dumb shit,america is not at war with kuwait

[HypnosisDevil2]

For fuck's sake, I know it's not at war with Kuwait. Hence why I said "America's at war with Kuwait?" As in, since when was it?!

[lildsarmy03]

@BOBBYSOX86 There's troops in Kuwait. This was in Camp Arifjan. Do a little research next time you talk shit queer.

[Nescafe2012]

Fucking sand nigga, you should worship robin you dumb ass fuck.. anyways he was there for the troops not for you fucking assholes.

FUCK YOU AHAB!! haha

[vtc31]

you make all americains look bad......

[Nescafe2012]

oppss .. sowwy

[klipriverp]

we're british and ur a cunt to ur country u shit!

[Nescafe2012]

love ya robin... FUCK you Kuwait

[Weedindeedz]

Fuck YOU

[shaybob1711]

He joked about it but he showed a tremendous amount of respect during that. There is no one better to fill Bob Hope's shoes than Robin Williams.

[theprophetlazarus]

One question, sorry for sounding stupid but how the hell are they able to wear so much out there if its so hot? (like coats and crap)

[yamilink03]

theyre trained to last in the desert. they drink alot of water out there to keep hydrated. they need that camouflage so theyre not a standing target basically. you should see all that they wear. they carry like 50lbs of stuff its freakin rough.

[6458522]

because its not hot year round, it even snows sometimes in various places in the middle east. but yeah, its hotter than hell most of the time

[dv122]

because most of that is for protection. also the weather there is weird. it freaking hot during the day and at some locations when it gets dark it gets very cold.

[theprophetlazarus]

Well yeah most hot countries get dangerously cold at night even if its not as cold as here the switch to extremely hot to cold is deadly..

[haneenloveoth]

looooool he came 2 q8 once i nvr knew abt tht loooool coooooool

[lilheavenranch]

How wonderful it was to see Robin Williams show respect.

As he said, he did not know what was happening but he knew enough to know he was safe with all of our warriors surrounding him.

And then his natural talent to take something that was not a part of the skit and make it totally funny.

[Weedindeedz]

Lol for you all poor kuwaityes thinks he came to see ur faces (( NO ))

he came for his own american soliders

thats the fact brothers all they love is them selves

and i will be glad if u guys mark bad in my comment !

thank you very much

[slayjoe]

i marked it

thumb up for you my friend

and we know that he has nothing to do with kuwaityes

;)

[Weedindeedz]

what do u mean !

[c3066521]

I'm not sure but I think your point was so poorly articulated that you ended up with someone you were trying to diss on your side. Well done.

[Weedindeedz]

what do u mean SIR !!

[Weedindeedz]

Biaaatch

[Sshelly34213]

for what?

Going all the way to Iraq a country we're at war with and entertaining the troops? Oh yeah he's just a bastard.

[Vintage772]

LMFAO poor ?? check the cars and check the vids of "stuff u cant affort".almost half of that shipped to the middle east...and he says poor XD

[Weedindeedz]

[Finalcrash6699]

Robin Williams never came to Kuwait.

[chely22]

This was in Kuwait. I was there myself. Camp Arifjan.

[hamskw]

[Sniperguy35]

[Sniperguy35]

[ilargitxo2]

[JRRDPR]

I bet what soldiers need anywhere is sexist jokes.:-)They have to put it off for so long it drives them restless.:-) Do you have Bob Hope visiting Vietnam troops?:-)

[Hisoka79]

Just be glad you're not in sweden, raise a flag, and all the foreigners will think you're a racist. And many swedes with them as well. 'Tis fucked up.

[hamskw]

very funny

thats in iraq not in kuwait

[Malee8a1]

Arifjan is in KUWAIT!! not Iraq!!!

[hamskw]

im from kuwait & im sure thats not in kuwait

[Malee8a1]

Well FYI im fro kuwait too and i know for a fact that arifjan is in Kuwait... u could ask anyone

[hamskw]

arifjan in kuwait i've np with it

but this is not in kuwait

[Malee8a1]

if u read what is written in the begining of the video u will see that its in arifjan, kuwait... so stop the arguing.. and admitt that im right..

[hamskw]

i saw a show that robin him self said

thats wqas in iraq

[Malee8a1]

whatever u say if u won't believe me i might as well just stop trying to convince u

[hebbard76]

its in kuwait at the US Army camp near Ahmadi

[hamskw]

i saw a show that robin him self said

thats was in iraq

[hebbard76]

he was there to but that show was in kuwait. he was jking about retreat and how people from Iraq would love to come home you want i take a picture of the area and prove it

[hamskw]

no thanks loool

i still dont bleave it

and he didnt mantion kuwait

he said i've been in qatar and iraq

[crash669]

Strange as an Englishman to see American flag worship. What is so special about a flag, it's a piece of cloth? It's what the flag represents that is the important bit and holding that in your mind, in your heart and actions makes the difference, not saulting a piece of cloth running up a pole.

Good to see Robin following the best policy of being against the war but supporting the troops. Hate the war not the warrior

[themrchook]

It's the age old tradition of keeping people in line. Stand still and be fucking quiet while we *lower the flag*.

[jamesattack1]

worship? its ceremonial. and as an englishman im sure you really understand ceremonies, as you must deal with the royalty.

whats so special about the royalty?

[crash669]

Nothing...hence why I'm a republican. Interesting that you assume just because I'm English I love the royal family (whereas in fact they're a buch of free loading, tax dodging, sponging bastards).

This is why I find these ceremonies so unusal. Added to that, in England there is no ritualised praise of the monarchy at any time, no national ceremonies we all are expected to take part in unlike the States.

Wasn't attacking it though, just thought it odd.

[jamesattack1]

Im glad theres some sensible English people out there - I too am not a fan of their existence - however their legacy of architecture and tradition is respectable.

Lets not forget this is the military. so rituals/ceremonies abound.

[SenorSpode]

Some may say that we're not the only country in the world....that we only act like it. But when you think of it, the last two world wars were started by Europeans who could care less about common people (As demonstrated by the millions of civilians who died at their hands) and used amateurs for politics, as very excellently illustrated by Christopher Reeve's character in "The Remains Of The Day". Gandhi was so right: "Western Civilization" sounds like a noble concept whose time is yet to come.

[ARKfusion]

I was there for this! It was one of the best things I have experienced in my life. Thanks you Robin!

[bollywood2012]

OMG , im from kuwait , and i love him , i wish i could've seen him  !

[q8thenight]

IT'S IN KUWAIT OMG u CANT READ!?

[SCUBADIVERQ8]

i am from kuwait and i love this guy , damn i couldn't be there

قاتلهم الله أحفاد القردة والخنازير و قاتل من والاهم وعاونهم

انت سبب من اسباب ذل المسلمين

اتقوا الله وانصر المسلمين في العراق حتى لو في تعليقاتك بدال ما تنصر الصليبيين

شكو ممثل كوميدي في نصرة المسلمين يا جاهل؟

انت واشكالك سبب غباء وتخلف المسلمين لانكم لا تعرفون من تعادون ولا تعرفون من عدوكم فبتم تقتلون كل من لا ينتمي لكم،خنازير،حشرك الله مع من تنصره من القتلة والاغبياء امثالك ومع بوش لانكم بفكركم المتخلف الغبي قدمتم لهم اكبر خدمة ومكنتوهم من الدخول للخليج ووضع قواعده عندنا،فلولا صدام لما تمكنت امريكا من وضع قدمها في الخليج ولو حتى في الحلم،ولولا بن لادين و قتله الابرياء لما استطاعت امريكا من غزوافغانستان والعراق،لكن ماذا نقول اغبا اغبياء العصر هم من ينصحوننا

[dewview]

يا غبي الممثل أتى الى الكويت او العراق او في بيتكم لترفيه قتلة المسلمين

وانت وغيرك في التعليقات فرحون لهذا

هذا والله الذل

لو لا انت و أمثالك لأصلحنا أمورنا بأيدينا

وعسى الله أن لا يؤاخذنا بما فعل السفهاء منا

[SCUBADIVERQ8]

واجه الاقع يا غبي ، المسلمين هم من يقتلوا بعضهم البعض ، فلولا المتخلفين امثالك لاصبح العراق الان جنة في بعد عودة الحريات و اقامة الانتخابات الشرعية و فوز ااغلبية بالحكم ،و خرجت امريكا مخزية من العراق ، و لكنكم بغبائكم تعطون امريكا المبرر الوحيد (الارهاب و الاقتتال الطائفي) للبقاء في العراق، الله سبحانه و تعالى اعطانا عقلا لكي نفكر به و اذن نستمع بها ولكنكم عطلتم عقولكم و اصبحتم تفكرون باذانكم يا متخلفين ، الذل هو ذهاب العقل و الهتاف لمن يقتل المسلمين الحقيقي من القاعدة و البعث ووووو

صدام والقاعدة وبن لادن اشرف منك ياولد المتعة

يا حفيد المجوس

انا عبالي انك سفيه بس توني عرفت انك شيعي نجس

توني عرفت انك جاهل من كلمة واحدة فقط

وهي ان اعتقادك بان امريكا باقية في العراق للحفاظ على أمنها

ولا تعلم ايها الجاهل انها هي من تفجر في الابرياء حتى يكون لها عذر في البقاء وتشعل الفتنة بين الشيعة والسنة و تبعد الجهاد عنها وتتفرج فيهم يتقاتلون وهي تنتهك ممتلكات البلد واعراض والمسلمين

ومع الاسف وجدت من ينصرها من احفاد المجوس الخونة

يالله اذلف ولاترد

اللهم لا تؤاخذنا بما فعل السفهاء منا

انا قلت ان امريكا باقية للحفاظ على الامن في العراق!انا قلت انكم بتخلفكم(وانا شيعي) سواء كنتم شيعة ام سنه تعطونها العذر للبقاء في ارض المسلمين يا غبي،مثل ما اعطاها صدام العذر لتضع قواعدها في الخليج ومثل ما اعطاها ابن لادين العذر لغزو افغانستان و العراق يا متخلف،الم اقل لك انك تفكر باذنك يا خنزير ، �
