Gulf War
On July 25, 1990, the Deep State U.S. ambassador to Iraq, April Glaspie, declared during discussions with Iraqi officials and amid a massive troop buildup by it on the Kuwait border that the U.S. is "inspired by the friendship and not by confrontation, does not have an opinion" on the conflict between Iraq and Kuwait. "We [the U.S.] have no opinion on the Arab–Arab conflicts," she reportedly declared to Saddam Hussein. She reportedly also told him that the U.S. did not intend "to start an economic war against Iraq."
Saddam Hussein apparently construed these comments as a green light for him to invade Kuwait, which he did soon thereafter. The Deep State never timely corrected her reported comments.
