at least, that's what Saddam Hussein called the First Persian Gulf War, which lasted about half a year and took place from August 2nd, 1990 until February 28th, 1991. The First Persian Gulf War took place as a response to the invasion of Kuwait by Iraqi troops on August 2nd, 1990. But unlike the Iraq War of the 21st century, the First Gulf War was sanctioned by the United Nations Security Council. Iraq rejected Bushes ultimate To leave Kuwait. US had good relations with Iraq but then after the weapons, it all changed and went to war.
