Changes at Shia Islam
"All statistics"? Which ones specifically? There is a lot of tampering with stats in these kind of articles, so if the numbers are wrong and you can provide us correct ones that would be outstanding, but we have to have a clear footnote to some census data, academic scholarship, etc. that supports this claim. MatthewVanitas (talk) 15:47, 2 July 2013 (UTC)

You are right, Matthew and here are my back up sources:

These sites confirm Kuwaiti shiites at 30%: Foreign Policy Magazine (US): http://mideast.foreignpolicy.com/posts/2011/04/29/ahistorical_kuwaiti_sectarianism The U.S. Department of State, Section 1 of their report: http://www.state.gov/j/drl/rls/irf/2012/nea/208398.htm Embassy of the United States, Kuwait, also confirms 30% Shiite Kuwaitis composition: http://kuwait.usembassy.gov/policy-news/irfr.html IndexMundi sources its info from the CIA World Factbook and also confirms 30%: http://www.indexmundi.com/kuwait/demographics_profile.html AFP (News) along with Al Arabiya (an Arabic news source) also confirms 30%: http://english.alarabiya.net/articles/2012/12/02/252894.html And finally, even the Germans confirm 30% (besides American and Arab news source): http://www.dw.de/shiite-muslims-gain-seats-in-boycotted-kuwait-election/a-16423630

And now, lets move to Kuwait's population and the number of Kuwaitis This is the OFFICIAL State of Kuwait website for the Public Authority For Civil Information - this Authority deals with issuing ID cards to everyone living in Kuwait and maintains the official country database on demographics: http://www.paci.gov.kw/en/

The site says that as of today (July 3, 2013), there are 1.23 million Kuwaitis living (number rounded up from actual population number: 1,227,662).

Now we can easily and accurately calculate shiite Kuwaitis: 30% of 1.23 million = 368,300 shiite Kuwaitis (number rounded up from 368,298.6).

N.B. Non-Kuwaiti are excluded from the 30% calculation mostly because Kuwait does not ask a worker applying for work permit for his religion nor sect so the government doesnt know the sect of workers here. Hence only Kuwaitis can be calculated within certain degree of accuracy.

Hope the above info back up my claim and the table can be amended to reflect Kuwait's proper demographics and shiite percentage. And thanks again for taking the time and interest in replying to me. I hope the above helps.

Cheers.
