ALL OF THE ABOVE

Answer 1

Answer: ALL OF THE ABOVE

Step-by-step explanation:

Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait in 1990 and as a result, controlled its oil. Kuwait was one of the countries supplying the U.S. and so if Hussein decided to shut down Kuwait oil, the U.S. would be affected.

Hussein's aggressive actions also threatened the security of U.S. allies like Saudi Arabia which they actually tried to invade during the Battle of Khafji. Kuwait was also a strategic importance as they are located in the Persian gulf which would give the U.S. access to waters close to Iran.
