-- as I have already posted, it was forbidden by the Security Council.

As I have already posted, the UN has no power to "forbid" any sovereign nation from defending itself, with or without the help of its allies, and defense need not stop at the aggressor's border. If you really knew anything about international law or the UN charter, you would know that. You are confusing a cease fire, which Kuwait would have been under no obligation to accept, with a UN mandate for Kuwait and its allies to stop fighting whether they wanted to or not.
