The
Second Gulf War "By Turki Alharbi"
In a summer day 1990, Iraqi
occupied troops invaded Kuwait State and tried to get into Saudi Arabia. That
was a shock for the international community and drove leaders, people and
political organizations to call the Iraq to withdrawal immediately. On the ground, there
was a tough resistance that stopped an expansion of Iraqi troops and made it
more confused forward how to handle the situation. Even the United States expressed its
concerns about the complicated situation and asked the Iraqi troops to return strictly to their previous boundaries.
Saddam, the Iraqi tyrant, claimed the aggressive behaviors which were done by Kuwait and
Saudi Arabia, and they also played with oil prices that pushed me to attack
them. On the contrary, King Fahd strongly voiced to the entire world to do its
duties to save the security and peace of the globe. In closed rooms, negotiations
took a long time without actively actual steps on the ground. Also, the Iraqi
regime used that to establish new identities for countries what it occupied.
Moreover, some nations such as Russia, China and Germany rejected or abstained
when the endorsement of resolution presented for voting.
Finally, the United
Nations after six months from the beginning of the war succeeded in endorsing a
heavy resolution that consisted of two points. First point, they made a military
action against Saddam's regime. Second one, more than thirty countries participated in
this action and they achieved a great victory in February 1991.
