- In August 1990, Iraq invaded Kuwait which led the U.S. to launch Operation Desert Shield to protect Saudi Arabia. In January 1991, the U.S. led a coalition in Operation Desert Storm that began an aerial bombing campaign against Iraq and launched a ground assault in February that liberated Kuwait within 100 hours. Saddam Hussein's forces were defeated but he remained in power in Iraq.

Attack on Afghanistan Formalised before 9/11: was Key to Unlock Route to Gas ...Sadanand Patwardhan
International oilcompanies had long been aware that the former USSR states of Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistanand, Kazakhstan have huge reserves of oil and naturalgas. The problem forUS, and other Western oil companies, was how to get oil and gas from these huge land-locked reserves to seaports for export. In1995, the Union Oil Company of California (Unocal) gained an agreement with Turkmenistan to lay a gas pipeline from Turkmenistan, across Afghanistan,to the Pakistan coast. Unocal also gained a natural gas agreement with Uzbekistan. Pipelines from Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan could then merge and cross Afghanistan. Unocal then gained a deal with Uzbekistan's northernneighbour, Kazakhstan, and oil and gas pipelines could then run south from Kazakhstan to Uzbekistan and link with the trans-Afghanistan pipelines.
During the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, the US established a covert operation in Afghanistan code named `BearTrap'. This anti-Soviet operation established a base in Afghanistan jointly funded by the US and SaudiArabia--and run by the CIA and Pakistan's ISI. The ISI component was headed by Osama bin Laden [Saudi National and heir of powerful Saudi family with close ties to house of Saud]
In August 1996, Unocal led the formation of Central Asia Gas Pipeline Ltd (Centgas). Unocal invited Taliban leaders to Texas to finalise the Centgasproject. The Telegraph reported on December14,1997, ``Oil barons court Taliban in Texas''.
9/11 was blamed on Osama Bin Laden and Taliban without a shred of evidence being offered only to pre-text attack already planned attack on Afghanistan to have a unified single pro-US government there instead of the violently squabbling factions holding different regions, which made Centgas project impossible. On October 7, 2001, US and UK forces commenced their attack on Afghanistan. However, the US planned an invasion of Afghanistan before the events of 9/11. The Guardian reported on September 22, 2001, ``Threat of US strikes passed to Taliban weeks before New York attack''. Time magazine reported on August 12, 2002, ``They had a plan; long before 9/11''.
This Power Point presentation is designed for students to learn more about our history, specifically the attacks on Pearl Harbor. It is geared toward middle school to high school students.

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

Women have three distinct types of involvement: direct involvement in terrorist acts; enabling of others to commit such acts; and facilitating the disengagement of others from violent or extremist groups.
4. Iraq had a number of reasons for attacking Kuwait. Iraq had never really accepted the state of Kuwait and considered it to be part the land between the rivers, Euphrates and Tigris rivers that belong to Iraq. Iraq thought the underground oil along the border with Kuwait was theirs. Iraq claimed before the war, Kuwait was responsible for the reducing world oil prices. Saddam Hussein claimed that Kuwait owed his country money for Iraq’s economic losses. Kuwait's leaders refused all of Saddam's demands and increased its oil production by 40 percent. It is clear that Iraq expected to claim as its territory Kuwait and that they initially never expected an allied force to fight back. Background to War
5. INVASION BY IRAQ On August 2, 1990 Iraqi troops crossed the border between Kuwait and Iraq. Within a few days of the attack the country of Kuwait was occupied and the Iraqi forces were closing on the border with Saudi Arabia. At that time if Saddam's troops were not stopped at the Kuwait-Saudi Arabia border he would attack other oil producing countries. President George W. H. Bush ordered U.S. Air Force fighter aircraft to go to Saudi Arabia to stop the Iraqis. Operation Desert Shield started on August 2, 1990. Saddam Hussein was being presented as the evil dictatorship that he had come to destroy a peaceful and militarily weak neighbor
6. Shortly before 3:00 a.m. on the morning of January 17, 1991, several stealth F-117 and B-1 soared across the skies of the brightly lit city of Baghdad. The Iraqi radar failed to the detect the present of any aircraft. Within minutes of the attack most of Iraq's Command and Control Communications Center, Air Force Headquarters and Air Defense Operations Center were destroyed. Operation Desert Storm the air phase of the war had started. During the next few hours coalition aircraft destroyed the electrical system in Baghdad, most of Iraq’s radar defenses and any remaining fighter aircraft. OPERATIION DESERT STORM
14. Forty days later after the air war stated, on February 24, 1991 Ground Attack Day One, American and allied troops crossed the borders into Kuwait. American and allied troops begin two ground offensives in the deserts of western Iraq to defeat the Iraq forces in Kuwait.
15. “ I can’t say enough about the Army and Marine divisions. If I used words like brilliant, it would really be an under-description of the absolutely superb job they did in breaching the so-called impenetrable barrier. Absolutely superb textbook operation and I think it will be studied for many years to come as the way to do it” Quote by “ General H. Norman Schwarzkopf, Jr.”
16.
17. On the second day of the war, the allied troops advanced further on all fronts. The troops approached Kuwait City, whiled the western troops began to cut off the Iraqis ability to leave.
18. Ground attack day three of the war saw the largest tank battle in history. The American armoured forces engaged the tank forces of the Republican Guard, Iraq's elite force. American tanks complete destroyed over 500 Iraqi tanks and other heavy armour without losing a single tank. During the third day, the Iraqi army began a headlong retreat from Kuwait and southern Iraq in doing so set over 400 Kuwait oil wells on fire. Their retreat being cut off by allied aircraft and with their vehicles being destroyed from the air the Iraqis fled on foot. That night allied troops freed Kuwait City.
19. The fourth and last day of the war saw the American and allied troops continuing the destruction of much of the Iraqi army. A decision had already been made in Washington to end the war at 100 hours. It was thought that an assault on Baghdad was impractical, and the best that could be done was to destroy as much Iraqi equipment as possible. At 8:01 a.m. after 100 hours of battles a conclusion of the war was declared.
20. Saddam Hussein was born in Tikrit, Iraq in 1937. Saddam Hussein was dictator of Iraq from 1979 until 2003, when his government was overthrown by a United States-led invasion. Hussein had joined the revolutionary Baath party while he was a university student. He launched his political career in 1958 by assassinating a supporter of Iraqi ruler Abdul-Karim Qassim. Saddam rose in the ranks after a Baath coup, and by 1979 he was Iraq's president and existing dictator. He led Iraq through a decade-long war with Iran, and in August of 1990 his forces invaded the neighbouring country of Kuwait. A U.S.-led alliance ran Hussein's forces out of Kuwait in the Gulf War, which ended in February of 1991 with Saddam still in power. After losing the second Gulf War in 2003, Saddam was put to death by hanging in Baghdad on the morning of December 30, 2006. Saddam Hussein Ab al-Majid al-Tikrit 4-23-1937 to 12-30-2006
21.
22. In 1988, he was promoted to General and was appointed Commander-in-Chief of the U.S. Central Command which is responsible for military operations in the Persian Gulf. While he was commander, Schwarzkopf prepared a detailed plan for the defense of the oil fields of the Persian Gulf against an invasion by Iraq. When Iraq invaded Kuwait, Schwarzkopf's plan was as the basis for Operation Desert Storm. His operational plan was the "left hook" strategy that went into Iraq behind the Iraqi forces who were occupying Kuwait He was widely credited with bringing the ground war to a close in just four days. General H. Norman Schwarzkopf, Jr.
23. AFTER THE WAR At the end of the 100 hour-ground war in the gulf, America's leaders and military leaders basked in what appeared to be a success. Certainly in comparison with the gloomy predictions to the pre-war period, the military victory seemed good. Although, American leaders remained unclear about their positions for postwar Iraq. They had failed to destroy Saddam's Republican Guard Divisions, which immediately set about destroying Shiite rebels in the south and they were uncertain about Saddam's potential to threaten his neighbours America's allies. Even in defeat, widespread destruction, no fly zones and economic sanctions Saddam Hussein tried to convence the other Middle East counties that Iraq had in fact, they won the war. During the months and years following cease-fire Saddam's army continued to violate the no fly zones by firing anti-aircraft missiles at U S aircraft, used the United Nations Oil for Food program to purchase weapons and put bounties on the killing United Nation inspectors.
24. After September 11, 2001 there was public debates in the United States as to whither or not terrorist were be trained in Iraq, was Saddam Hussein developing weapons of mass destruction such as chemical, biological or nuclear bombs. On March 19, 2003 President George W. Bush ordered the invaded of Iraq. Called Operation Iraqi Freedom, lead to the overthrow of Saddam Hussein’s government. The installation of a new government approved by the Iraqi National Assembly and general election in December 2005. Saddam Hussein was captured and after a trial for crimes against humanity by an Iraqi court he was hanging on December 30, 2006. At the present time U.S. troops still occupy Iraq.
