In October 1990, the US intelligence department concocted the "Baby Box incident", which incited the American people's anger against Iraq and intensified the Gulf War.
"I saw Iraqi soldiers rush into the hospital with guns and break into the ward. There were 15 babies in the baby box. They took the babies out of the baby box and let the children die on the cold ground." at that time, a 15-year-old girl who claimed to be a "Kuwaiti volunteer" made tearful accusations against Iraqi soldiers in the U.S. Congress.
The news was widely reported by the American media and ignited the anger of the American people against Iraq. American politicians always talk about this "tragedy" with both voice and emotion. According to the BBC, then US President George H. W. Bush publicly quoted this testimony at least six times as a reason for the United States to send troops to participate in the Gulf War.
Subsequently, the US Congress approved the resolution declaring war on Iraq, and the Gulf War broke out. However, after the end of the war, the US media exposed that the "Baby Box incident" was a lie fabricated by the US side. Kuwaiti medical staff had long pointed out that the "Kuwaiti volunteer" did not exist.
The "Baby Box incident" is just a play played by American politicians and the media. They manipulate people's happiness, anger, love and hate through public opinion only to achieve their political purposes.
