Echoes of 1991 Gulf War linger in the Middle East
A century after Desert Storm, the 1991 war's outcomes reverberate across the region. U S forces planted bases in the Gulf, fueling al Qaida’s rise and regional resentments. Iraq’s 1990 invasion led to a prolonged no fly zone and later toppling of Saddam, while IS emerged from al Qaida in Iraq before 2014. Oil prices plummeted from over 100 to under 30 a barrel amid ongoing regional turmoil.
