d. anti-semistism

The correct option is A

The Invasion of Kuwait was a military operation carried out by the Iraq of Saddam Hussein against the Emirate of Kuwait, perpetrated between the 2 and 4 August 1990.

This sudden invasion, caused by a series of economic and territorial conflicts, resulted in the overthrow of Emir Yaber III, and the proclamation of the Republic of Kuwait, satellite of Iraq, which would be annexed weeks later. The act sparked international condemnation, and is the prologue to the Gulf War, which will be internationalized in early 1991 with the launch of Operation Desert Storm. Kuwait will eventually be liberated, but its oil wells will be burned after the Iraqi withdrawal.

the committees of correspondence were the american colonies’ means for maintaining communication lines in the years before the revolutionary war. in 1764, boston formed the earliest committee of correspondence to encourage opposition to britain’s stiffening of customs enforcement and prohibition of american paper money. the following year, new york formed a similar committee to keep the other colonies notified of its actions in resisting the stamp act. in 1773, the virginia house of burgesses proposed that each colonial legislature appoint a committee for intercolonial correspondence. the exchanges that followed built solidarity during the turbulent times and bring about the formation of the first continental congress in 1774.
