the gulf
They both fought Saddam Hussein They share the same name Both were presidents umm what kind of specific do you want?
Iraq has been majority Shi'a for over 500 years and many Iraqi Shi'a fought in the Iraqi Army against Iran. However, Saddam Hussein and the higher echelons of the Iraq government were Sunna.
execution by hanging, Saddam was tried for crimes against humanity by an Iraqui court and sentenced to death by hanging, in Baghdad, Iraq. He was 69. He was president of Iraq from 1979 until April 2003 when he was captured by American troops. He was a ruthless dictator who ruled Iraq by terror, and fought two wars, one against Iran which finished in stalemate (1980/1988) and later, in 1990, invaded Kuwait, leading to the first Gulf War.
The current "War in Iraq" is being fought, because Saddam Hussein had some weapons of mass destruction or (WMDs) that he wouldn't destroy, also George Bush accused him of having connections with terrorists.
Iraq war: Why we fought: our oil was in danger, Iraq invaded Kuwait; wanted to stop Saddam Hussein from giving Al-Qaeda weapons of mass destruction What we wanted: to get Kuwait out of Iraq, wanted to get Saddam Hussein out of power What we got: got Kuwait out of Iraq, saved our oil, we freed Iraq from dictatorship your answer is what someone who supported Bush would say. all that isn't true. Yes some parts are true, but Kuwait was the least of the reason we were and still are over there. The whole Saddam deal was a huge set up. America put Saddam in power.
The gulf not golf war was the war that occurred in Kuwait (a small country below Iraq) between Iraq forces and American forces. Saddam Hussein at the time invaded Kuwait for it's oil supplies, and America came in fought against him. In the end America and Kuwait forces managed to win and Iraq retreated.
Gladiators fought for peoples entertainment
The Gulf War (1990-1991) included Operation Desert Shield and Operation Desert Storm, and was fought to liberate the country of Kuwait on the Persian Gulf. Kuwait had been occupied by the forces of Iraq, then ruled by Saddam Hussein. Claiming that Kuwait was historically part of Iraq, Saddam ordered the invasion and occupation of the country in August, 1990. A coalition of forces led by the US expelled the Iraqis between January 17 and February 28, 1991.
