Episode 270 George H W Bush 1990 - 1991 The Sweep of History (Part 11) Coming Together, Coming Apart
Manage episode 412648388 series 2850631
In this episode, we look back at the coming together of the Military coalition on the ground and the man who would command it, General Norman Schwarzkopf. It would be a coalition made up of 42 countries, and troops from around the world. They would all come together on the ground in Saudi Arabia to prepare for the possible War to come. We will look at the command structure of the coalition and see just how complicated an endeavor this really was for Bush to put together.
We will listen to a 60 Minutes profile from CBS News of the General who would run the operation on the ground in Saudi Arabia, Kuwait and Iraq. It would be the coming together of the world to fight back the aggression of the Iraqi Dictator showing the World that we had learned our lesson from World War 2.
However, the luck would not run as well on the other side of the Atlantic as George Bush would be pushed past the point of having to shutdown the government in a budget battle here at home. We have already covered the budget situation in an earlier episode but we wanted to give you a sense of the full plate the President had to deal with as war loomed in the Gulf.
We also include floor speeches by two Senators we profiled early in our podcasts history Senator Ernest Hollings and Senator John Warner.
