  Globalfindata on miskit niimoodi kirjutanud:
  
  Stock markets sold off and oil prices rose when Saddam Hussein invaded Kuwait. Oil prices were at $17 a barrel at the end of June 1990, and peaked at $40 on October 9, 1990. The price then proceeded to decline to $20 a barrel by January of 1991, and continued to decline throughout most of the 1990s.
  
  The stock market had been rising prior to Saddam Husseins invasion of Kuwait. The market topped out on July 17, 1990 and declined 20% until the market bottomed on October 11, 1990. When the attack on Iraq finally began, the market jumped up, rising almost 20% over the next month. The war was over within a few days and despite a recession in the United States that followed the Gulf War, the market did not decline and stayed within a trading range for the rest of 1991. During the Gulf War there was a reduction in airplane travel, which did affect the airline industry. But the long-term impact on stock markets and even oil markets was minimal, even though it was followed by a recession in the United States. In fact, the price of oil continued to decline after the war was over with.

  Tundub, et järelikult tuleb Bushile soovida väikest kiiret võidukat sõda - see valem on ajaloos töötanud nii juba aastatuhandeid ja eelmine comment seega igati õige ja õigustatud.
  
  Ainult et...
  
  Siis ei tuntud lennukeid
  ei tuntud massihävitusrelvi
  terrorism polnud moes
  Ja see kui miski d˛ihaadi-mees juudi maha koksas, põlnd sest Vahemere teisel kaldal suurt lugu. Aga nüüd nimetatakse seda üleilmastumiseks...
