Please help!!!!!

What is not a reason why George H.W. Bush decided against long-term U.S. involvement in Iraq?


He thought it might create a power vacuum for an anti-American nation to take over.


He had accomplished the goal of forcing Iraq to withdraw from Kuwait.


He decided there were insufficient oil reserves to make it worthwhile.


Other nations in the area did not support long-term U.S. involvement.

Answer:

The correct answer is "He decided there were insufficient oil reserves to make it worthwhile".

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1990 President George H.W. Bush decided to perform an Iraq’s invasion on Kuwait. Later, President Bush decided against long-term U.S. involvement in Iraq for numerous reasons but, insufficient oil reserves to make it worthwhile was not one of them. Saddam Hussein controlled nearly 20 percent of Opec production, and he had an evident petroleum dominance in the world.
