It is the day after the invasion of Kuwait by the Iraqi Army under the orders of it's dictator Saddam Hussein. We will listen in to the NBC Nightly News with Tom Brokaw as they recount the events of the 24 hours after the initial invasion for the public. We will hear from the Kuwaiti citizens as they recount the events as they unfolded. In chilling detail, they tell the tale of living in a peaceful tranquil Kuwait, in the period of time that many were just coming off their vacations, to wake up with jets and tanks running through their streets.
We then will head off to Colorado with President Bush on an already planned meeting that will include British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher who will advise Bush that military action may be required if Saddam Hussein does not leave Kuwait.
And he has no intention of leaving.
It is here in this episode that we set the stage for the battles and the War to come.
