The first Gulf was in 1991 and lasted from January 15th to March 1st. I remember those 45 days extremely well, as my grandfather died some ten days after it ended. I find it quite ironic that the first Gulf war ended on the Jewish holiday of Purim, and the second started on the very same holiday last year. Apr 04 04, 4:36 PM
