As an aside, I have to like this new method of discussion many of you lemmygrad people are now employing. It’s like you had a planning meeting where somebody said “perhaps we shouldn’t be assholes, that doesn’t convince people”.
To the point, unfortunately I didn’t have time to look at this thoroughly since it was a long post, but the first thing I noticed was the Washington Post article, i.e.
There is some evidence that the US green lit Saddam’s invasion of Kuwait and the plan to annex the north. Part of the claim is that the US
instructed its ambassador to Baghdad to tell Saddam “in effect” that he could “take the northern part of Kuwait.”
This seems to be slightly taken from context, as it’s a claim made by the presidential candidate Ross Perot. The rest of the article seems to suggest that no evidence exists which constitutes a message that the US gave the green light to Iraq on the invasion of Kuwait.
