Embassy; 1990 - 1991 Gulf War

Part 1/2
Initial embassy footage from what I believe is CBS w/then reporter Dan Rather. These were pulled from a tape that I assembled during high school, origin unknown.

To the people of Kuwait, I thank you for your warm reception when we rolled in. It was our pleasure. You are a kind and loving people and If I ever had the opportunity to risk my life for anyone again, I would hope it would be for people of such genuine loving nature as you. It wasn't about oil for us... It was about you... Semper Fidelis

Sgt. USMC= your friend

@1qazabcd had to do with taking 50 ameican hostages that lasted for 444 days. You all started a war by that!!

Interesting how the world went to save Kuwait when Saddam invaded in 1991, but before that, when Saddam invaded Iran, no one helped Iran....interesting...

I wonder why there is terrorism in the world?

It wouldn't be anything to do with American corruption would it? No....can't be...impossible...

@wildpilsen You judge other countries that go to war when yours hardly ever does because its by a country that defends it (United States).

my dad was a LT he was in this and he told me 1 time in the morning they used to get surprise attacks. so one morning when he was getting into the truck a saudi came out and tried to slit my dads throat and he started fighting with him for the knife because he blocked the knife with his arm. my dad killed the saudi he stabbed him in the chest 2 times and now every time he is driving or getting into a car every 2 minutes he always turns around or looks into the rear view

I was there. This is the US Embassy building on 25 Feb 1991. The Embassy used to be only a few hundred yards from the Gulf near Kuwait City. Toward the end you can see the Hilton hotel when the camera pans facing south. Great video!
