Japan contributed medical personnel and medical supplies to the Gulf Coalition. The Constitution of Japan, written by the US after World War 2, forbade Japan from acting militarily except in the direct defense of the Japanese Islands. [FYI, that is also why Japanese forces did not participate in Korea or Vietnam.] The armed forces of Japan are intended ONLY for the defense of Japan, exactly as the US wanted it in 1945. As Japan was a major consumer of oil from the Persian Gulf, some critics urged Japanese military participation in the Gulf War, but Japan steadfastly refused to violate their constitution.
