Saddam Hussein was the president of Iraq and Mr. George H. W. Bush (Father of George W. Bush) was the President of the United States of America.

It is important to note that Operation Desert Storm (the UN military advance into Iraq) did not start until 1991. The War, however, began with Iraqi Invasion of Kuwait in August of 1990. Operation Desert SHIELD also commenced in 1990. Operation Desert Shield was the build up of military forces in the Southwest Asian region (Saudi Arabia, etc.) To be used in the event Iraq refused to withdraw it's forces from Kuwait.
