WHO KNOWS THE HISTORY OF AMERICA

In the history of American military use, there are striking examples of how the United States views its warfare as a force for good and justice. And the use of force for a just cause can best be illustrated by how the United States aided the alliance in the 1991 Gulf War. The war is under many names including Operation Desert Storm and the Liberation of Kuwait. But whatever the case, it was a war America had to wage because of unjust attacks on its allies and an act of violence that would never stop. The United States and the civilized nations around the world had tolerated the immorality of Saddam Husain, Iraq's longtime dictator. He was increasingly aggressive in his dream of exploring the desire and ability of the developed nations to stop him. But it escaped there on 2 August 1990 Iraq invaded and occupied Kuwait on false charges of illegal oil mining in the border area between the two countries. It is important to remember that the United States and its allies did not launch a full-scale invasion during the days or weeks when Iraq took over Kuwait. There have been efforts to negotiate and resolve this issue in peaceful ways. But Saddam Hussein despised the world and continued his plan to take over Kuwait and possibly take the offensive and put it in the next stage in Saudi Arabia. The Gulf War was also an important statement in the world that American allies were important to us and that we would protect them when it came. We proved it during World War II, in Korea, Vietnam, and here in the Middle East. When a country becomes a friend of the United States, the enemies become our enemies. And in this unpredictable attack, Iraq did not stop at directly attacking one of its American allies, the hostility showed that Saudi Arabia was in danger which was its most important ally as well. America has re-used its power of reliance on its friends from all over the world, consolidating the world's major powers as war preparations begin to mature. In total, 34 countries have sent troops, ships, weapons and other military aid to join the US military force to reverse this attack. Another lesson this war taught the American enemies was the amazing performance of the American army. On January 17, 1991, the attacks began with a massive air strike that shocked Iraqis and the world. The bombardment and the storm that ravaged western countries diminished the Iraqi military's ability to combine forces with its military capabilities. After that, air strikes became one of the world's most intelligent campaigns in modern warfare. Using modern technology, the United States confronted the astonishing Iraqi army in its homeland and defeated them aloud. The Iraqi strategy was to keep a large desert behind them because they felt that no enemy could roam the desert and find its back. But it was a serious mistake as the coalition forces, led by General Norman Schwarzkopf, used satellite technology and navigation systems to direct their troops into the desert that night and carry out a surprise attack on the Iraqi Republican Guard that resulted in a decisive victory. .The term "Lightning War" could best be used to describe the strength of the American allied forces to drive out the invasion of Kuwait. By the beginning of March 1991, the Great War was over and Kuwait was liberated. Defeating the enemy in less than 90 days was a success that the world had never imagined. But he showed the world that America was able to protect its allies and put an end to cruel tyranny. \Since that war there have been debates over whether President Bush should use the opportunity we got by defeating Saddam's forces to recapture Iraq. President Bush has shown great wisdom by sticking to the declared task and restoring Kuwait in control of Kuwait. H points out that President Bush in 1991 demonstrated ingenuity in his leadership that led to Operation Desert Storm becoming one of the most successful military campaigns in United States history.
