Desert Storm (First Gulf war), 1991): Hussein asked for permission - TopicsExpress



          

Desert Storm (First Gulf war), 1991): Hussein asked for permission from the US (via their ambassador April Gillespie) and got an answer that the US does not care Arab quarrels. That was a trap, and after Saddam occupied Kuwait, George Bush Sr. mobilised a coalition of some 40 nations to liberate Kuwait and to smash the recently-built Iraqi military power base. This also involved a media hoax, where the daughter of Kuwaiti US ambassador played nurse on TV and testified to witnessing Iraqi soldiers throwing babies out of incubators in Kuwait.
