The Gulf War was about kicking Iraq out of Kuwait, after Iraq invaded. It had a wide support, both worldwide and within the Arab world. Saudi Arabia and Egypt actively participated.

Iraq invaded Kuwait because economic collapse and oil disputes thinking the west won't go to war for this emirate.

Don't come citing the deep magic, I was there when it was written.
