Your fantasy should be more like the August 2001 meeting of US Ambassador April Glaspie with Saddam Hussein-
I believe Saddam launched his invasion of Kuwait 3 days later, just after April Glaspie had left Iraq for a vacation to celebrate the success of her unconditional direct talks

Perhaps you're thinking of the July 25, 1990 meeting. Certainly not 2001.
