12:56 USA's weapons were vastly superior
13:08 main factors for helping American’s wind
13:19 night vision and GPS helped them get through smoke and desert. Due to GPS and night vision – the Americans could own the night and take the route where Saddam Hussein didn’t except them to take.
14:03 it further reduced the percentage of friendly fire
14:10 Saddam Hussein’s military forces were 4th largest armed forces in the world but the American’s have better forces
14:22 the M1A1 abrams tanks in the US forces compared to Iraq’s T72 were much better in shooting range (a thousand meters).
14:47 Efficient American air refueling planes. It could perform the task bombing and refueling at the same time. Double Mission
15:31 The machines of the US forces were so horrifying to the Iraq forces, they surrendered to a drone. American technology was so superior that the Iraq forces knew they were going to lose which explained their fear of a drone.
16:08 Back to Video games…
16:37 Extreme stories are used to gain support for the War.
16:55 The stories appeared even on the most critical magazines Times.
17:48 we’re not anti-America! The stories were not just posted in American magazines! Even BBC banned songs such as “we can work it out” and “everyone wants to rule the world” which completely went to governmental views.
17:58 Conclusion! We can all agree on the fact that technology, propaganda and media played an important role in the Gulf War, even though it can be debated whether the war was actually limited or total.
