Absolutely. I remember it very well. It was all over TV. The video of the girl testifying before Congress was shown over and over.
Or when James Baker, when asked of the reason of Desert Shield, said,"In a word: Jobs"?
I was in uniform at that time and wondered how many soldiers were worth each job to be saved. So many of the reasons we were told were later shown to be bogus I had a hard time believing anything else that the Bush administration had to say after that.
As I recall, the young woman was the daughter of a Kuwaiti diplomat here in the US. I don't think she was even in Kuwait at the time.
But that's beside the point. Wonder why all these peaceniks don't take their peace-making schemes directly to the "crazies" of the world.
