There are two main defenses.
- Kuwait has the right to national sovereignty just like any other nation. They got their independence from the British and have proceeded to be an emirate like Qatar or the UAE and are permitted to freely exercise their rights. If the leaders and people of Kuwait wish to join with Iraq, they need only pass a law that allows them to do so. When Greece was fighting for independence, Crete became independent separately from the Greek mainland, but both countries were able to write a treaty which made Crete part of the Greek country.
- Conquest is not an acceptable method of debt cancellation. One of the main reason Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait was to prevent collection on the debt he had incurred in the Iran-Iraq War of 1980-1988 with the small emirate. It is wrong to forcibly cause debt forgiveness, especially with conquest.

You were over paid by insurance company by mistake can they claim this money back?
Of course they can. If I was you I would go ahead and report this matter to the adjuster that you dealt with to see if it was incorrect or not. All claims will be audited by the insurance company and the claims department. Any mistake will be found out so you should be truthful. I know with the IRS if you are over paid and make any effort to keep the overpayment without reporting it you are committing fraud and will be prosecuted. That's the IRS.
