Attacked one country (Iran), and although assisted by US military aid

and despite weapons superiority never conquered sizeable territory.

ambassador. Occupied Kuwait but was easily defeated in matter of days

by alliance of superior fighting forces. Finally toppled in matter of

weeks by US/British alliance.
