In the 1990's Iraq invaded Kuwait. Kuwait has a good oil supply and if Sudain Hussan got control of it we were in big trouble. The united states is Kuwaits allie well the other way around and we went over to help them. This all started on August 2 1990. It was a big event in history. January 12 1991 President Bush (the father) got his War wage from congress(52-47 majority) he didnt really take action right away.On January 18 1991 Iraq launched a missle at israel hoping it would broaden the war. I think that was a very stupid idea on there part. If more places dont like them the war is just going to get bad for them. In April of 1991 Iraq declared they had chemical weapons! That is so not good! Nine days later they announced they had Nuclear Weapon materials! I hope they dont learn how to make them! in October they say they are researching how to make Neclear weapons! When President Clinton took office his love life affair took most of the news instead of the War which should have been. The UN stated that there is to be no more exchanging of goods. That call should hav been called a long time ago i believe. The war continued and is still going on just more out in the open.“If we wait for the [Iraq] danger to become clear, it could be too late.” -Sen. Joseph Biden (D-Del). That is a good point. I believe it is relivent right now!
