"It probably would have taken him just a few days more even with our protection. The most intriguing mystery of Gulf War I is why Saddam stopped at the Kuwait/SA border." Perhaps he thought he should stop so we wouldnt get involved.. He could have gotten to saudi later as he followed the hitler europe model on how to confront appeasement in one step at a time fashion.
