The first answer makes the most sense here. Iraq had invaded Kuwait and a coalition for the first "Desert Storm" was created that launched out from Saudi Arabia to drive Hussein's forces from there in '91. The second one was sparked by concern over WMDs in Iraqi hands and ended up removing Hussein completely from power afterwards.
