fore the first Gulf War, before the sanctions, at full force and with our help, Iraq couldn't even defeat Iran. Yet somehow they were a superpower in waiting? Prior to the Gulf War, they had the fourth largest standing army in the world. We were warned, prior to the beginning of the Gulf War, that this would not be a cake walk. That if a ground assault were necessary, we could see thousands or tens of thousands of dead Americans. And there were extremely credible military analysts saying this.
