Answer 1

c

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

c. the US air strike against Iraqi forces in response to the invasion of Kuwait

Step-by-step explanation:

None of the choices are correct, but the one that is most correct is C. Operation Desert Storm is a U.S.-led Coalition that was put together to protect U.S. & member of U.N. Kuwait from being taken over by Iraq. C. is the closest answer, because, yes the U.S. did air strike Iraqi forces, and used her air superiority to win, but no, it does not give the big picture. Also, note that Operation Desert Storm was before the 2000s, which meant that a & b are false. The missile strikes occurred in the presidency of Clinton, and not Bush Sr., who instigated ODS.
