On January 17, 1991 and February 28, 1991, the world situation: Iraq dispatched 100,000 troops to invade Kuwait, a small country of only 10,000 square kilometers, on August 2, 1990, in order to resolve the border dispute and oil dispute with Kuwait, thus triggering the Gulf crisis.
The vast majority of other countries or international organizations in the world have reacted swiftly to Iraq's aggression and have generally strongly resisted and condemned Iraq's aggression. The UN Security Council and its member states have responded to the Gulf crisis with unprecedented rapidity and almost complete unison. On August 2, 1990, the United Nations Security Council adopted Resolution 660, which condemned Iraq's violation of the UN Charter and demanded the withdrawal of its troops by a vote of 14 in favor, none against and one abstention.
From 2 August 1990 to 29 November 1990, the UN Security Council adopted 12 resolutions condemning and sanctioning Iraq. These resolutions have placed Iraq in a position of extreme political, economic, military and diplomatic isolation. Resolution 678 stipulates that the deadline for Iraq to withdraw its troops is January 15, 1991, and if Iraq does not withdraw before the deadline, the resolution authorizes UN member states to use "all necessary means" to implement the resolutions adopted by the United Nations, which provides a legal basis for a coalition of 38 countries led by the United States to send troops to the Gulf to resolve the crisis by force.
Iraq's invasion of Kuwait inevitably created irreconcilable contradictions with the United States, which has huge strategic interests in the Gulf and seeks to establish a "new international order". In addition, the Gulf region has always been the lifeline of the United States and the West (20 percent of the oil imported by the United States, 35 percent of Western Europe, and 70 percent of Japan's oil imports come from the Gulf), and in order to control the oil resources of the Gulf, defeat Iraq economically and militarily, maintain stability and balance of power in the Middle East, demonstrate the leading role of the United States in the world, and re-establish the dominant position of the United States in the world, the United States has rapidly dispatched troops under the authority of the United Nations to join forces with the multinational forces under the banner of "upholding justice" and "liberating Kuwait."

With the end of the world bipolar system and the collapse of the bipolar system of the world, the dispute between Iran and Kuwait once again became prominent. As far as Iraq is concerned, he hopes to achieve rapid development under the new international situation, especially to solve the huge debts it owes during the Iran-Iraq war, and become a major power in the Gulf region. In mid-July 1990, Iraq, Kuwait and the United Arab Emirates were affected by oil policy, territorial disputes, debt and other problems.
The dispute between them began. In July 1990, Iraq submitted a series of reports to Kuwait. After the request was denied, Iraq decided to annex Kuwait by force.
The Gulf, simply referred to as the Persian Gulf, is located in the central part of Southwest Asia. The Gulf region is the world's major oil-producing region and has a prominent strategic position. In August 1990, the region was the region in the largest post-war local war: the Gulf War.
Iraq's invasion of Kuwait sent a huge shock to the world. The United Nations has repeatedly adopted resolutions opposing Iraq's invasion of Kuwait and imposing sanctions on Iraq. The strongest reaction was to the West, led by the United States, which has huge economic interests in the Gulf region.
On 2 and 3 August, Bush chaired a plenary meeting of the Security Committee to study countermeasures. The meeting ultimately decided on a large-scale deployment operation to force Iraq to withdraw its troops and, if necessary, to prepare strikes. In that spirit, take charge of the Middle East.
The U.S. Command of Defense developed the "Desert Shield" initiative.

On 2 August 1990, Iraqi forces invaded Kuwait, overthrew Kuwait** and announced its annexation. The United States-led multinational force, with a United Nations mandate, began its military offensive against Iraqi forces on 17 January 1991.
2. The Second Gulf War took place on March 20, 2003, and a small number of troops still remain.
In this war, the United States only took less than 30 days to reach the capital of Iraq, and later the American army executed Saddam Hussein and his family during the years of occupation in Iraq.
The Gulf War changed the traditional mode of warfare:
1) electronic warfare has an important impact on the course and outcome of the war, and the electromagnetic superiority of the multinational forces led by the United States will become the new commanding heights in the war;
2) Air power played a decisive role. The Gulf War set a precedent for winning a war with air power as the main body, and in air strikes, due to the use of a large number of precision guidance, the accuracy of air strikes was improved, and civilians were reduced to a minimum;
3) The combat airspace has expanded unprecedentedly, and the battlefield has developed in the direction of great depth and high three-dimensionality, and there is no obvious front and rear;
4) High technology has greatly improved combat capability and enabled combat operations to develop at high speed, all-weather, and all-time domains.
