didn’t April Gillaspie tell Hussain Kuaite was not an American issue, which started the entire fiasco?

also seem to recall Bush the Elder allowing the Republican Guard to go home from Kuaite unmolested. Yeah, there was the highway of death ect., where they killed regular army looters with their spoils.

I also recall after calls for internal uprising in Iraq the Kurds stood up and tried to fight without support for several weeks/couple months with disastrous results. Once they were out of the way the no fly started.

The Republican guard was decimated on the road out of Kuwait. And yes Bush senior encouraged the Kurds to stand up and fight and then we abandoned them.
