On June 25, 1950, the Korean War began when some 75,000 soldiers from the North Korean People’s Army poured across the 38th parallel, the boundary between the Soviet-backed Democratic People’s Republic of Korea to the north and the pro-Western Republic of Korea to the south. This invasion was the first military action of the Cold War. By July, American troops had entered the war on South Korea’s behalf. As far as American officials were concerned, it was a war against the forces of international communism itself. After some early back-and-forth across the 38th parallel, the fighting stalled and casualties mounted with nothing to show for them. Meanwhile, American officials worked anxiously to fashion some sort of armistice with the North Koreans. The alternative, they feared, would be a wider war with Russia and China–or even, as some warned, World War III. Finally, in July 1953, the Korean War came to an end. In all, some 5 million soldiers and civilians lost their lives during the war. The Korean peninsula is still divided today.

Operation Desert storm began on August 7th 1990.

The reason that this operation began was because of the fact that Iraq, under the control of Saddam Hussein, invaded the tiny little country of Kuwait. The reason the United States had to act where because Kuwait where a major oil provider to the United States. And the Iraqi invasion posed a huge threat to Saudi Arabia another nation that provides the United States with oil. Operation desert shield was a defense to place troops in Saudi Arabia to protect from an Iraqi attack. The United States wanted to go to the UN for help but the Soviets who could veto anything in the UN usually backed Iraq and this was another variation of Communism vs. Containment.
